Clipping is so friggin' tedious. I need a break.

Actually I'm happy to have the time to vid but I'd rather just get down and make the darn thing rather than clip, clip, clip.

( Vidding blah and a wee spoilery comment if you haven't seen S4 )

I'm on holiday at the moment... which is brilliant beyond words. I often hear people say that teachers get too many holidays. I gotta tell you... we need them! It's ridiculous how burnt out you feel at the end of a term.

*hugs*

Crap.

I've just had a sudden urge to make a crack Castiel vid to "Wind Beneath My Wings"....

Somebody stop me.... I think my brain has left the building...


Hums... "Did you ever know that you're my hero.....You're everything I wish I could be.."


Damnit! I have serious vid ideas that need my attention.


*sigh*

*meep* I'm 45 today and that kinda freaks me out just slightly. At the same time makes me feel proud that I've made it this far... At 20, 45 was like OLD.... now I'm a 45 year old with the mind of a, well, let's say 30 year old going on 16.

In celebration I'm throwing caution to the wind and pinching this from girlmostlikely

Things I love: (in no particular order):

Our log fire, my new ugg boots, my husband and daughter, going out to dinner and talking about stuff, the children I teach, my family, clean sheets, having all the housework done, Supernatural, listening to up beat music on my way to work, my video editing program, movies, coming home to potato and leek soup, my puppy, curling up with my laptop on a Sunday morning and reading fanfiction, Sam and Dean Winchester, J2, watching my daughter doing sport, my flist, take away food and curling up on the sofa to watch a movie, dark chocolate, the internet, champagne, working, wearing the scarves my mum knits for me, dancing in the living room, photo albums, reading comments, engaging in conversations about my favourite show, acting, my beta, friends, enjoying a coffee in a cafe by myself..

Damn. I could keep going.... I love more things in my life than not and I am incredibly grateful.

Hey folks.

This is for a vid I'm starting. I wondered if anyone knew if a transcript exists for Jump the Shark. I've checked Wiki and Roadhouse - not there yet. I've done a quick google.... but no luck so far. Any other ideas? Would just be a time saver...

Thanks muchly.
xx

So many. Too many good fics to read! I just don't know where to start. So many rec's about... I will just have the dive in and find what time I can. :)

Actually I've been feeling a bit poorly for a few days and took a day off today. Shock! I hardly ever take days off because finding a relief (or substitute) teacher is nearly impossible... but I did. And I'm glad. Not least because I can curl up in bed and do some reading..... \o/


I admit I have been enjoying the response that my last vid received. Thank you all so much. I like to think I vid for myself but really....? Nah. Sharing it is the best part. :D

Toying with some ideas of what to vid next. I think my dead OC tribute is on the top of the list and even though it's what I think of as a "small" vid, it's one I'd like to do. I'm kinda anal like that. :)

As much as I'd love to be able to do Placebo's "Battle for the Sun" - Argh I think it will be too hard for me ..... someone WILL do that won't they????!!!! *big brown puppy eyes*


Umm - while I'm here. A vid question regarding transitions. On Numbers (and I think SYTYCD) a transition is used where the central image is blown out white before going to the next shot. I can't really explain it, but if you've seen it you'll know what I mean. Anyone know how to achieve that? I'm sure it's simple and I'm just lame but each time I see it I'm curious and I can't seem to figure it out.

Cheers guys. And now back to some reading ......

Credit where credit is due:

Many people helped make this video a reality.

maichan Wow. Where do I start? The movie posters, the opening and closing title sequences, the movie names and some song suggestions. There is no way this video would have happened without her valuable assistance. Thank you SO MUCH hun.
_sharvie_ My awesometasical beta. Quite a bit of research went into this one and _sharvie gave me much needed assistance with that. Not to mention her wonderful ideas and incredible eye for detail. Thanks as usual darlin'.
deirdre_c For her suggestion of slapstick - it never occurred to be until she mentioned it. Also for her valuable feedback on that section. *smish*
dinalori For her suggestion of using movie posters to transition the genres. This vid was dead in the water until that idea. :D

Vid notes

This idea came to mind when Jensen mentioned that Supernatural was like a Western. My thought was "yes, as well as many other genres". I've been sitting on it since October last year, never really sure how to make it work. Recently I decided to have another play and when maichan808 agreed (again) to help me with the graphics I was inspired to go back to it.

I haven't included all the genres I could have. I was gazumped by "Monster Movie" for Classic Horror so I didn't re-visit that one. And I'm sure there are a few others I could have done but 6 was enough!

No money made but comments are always gratefully (and warmly) accepted.

*waves*

Feels like forever since I've posted, so I thought I'd pop in and say hi and tell you why my hubby rocks my socks.

Last night he says to me "I have the perfect song for you" - "The perfect song for you" means a song you could make a vid to. Now this is kinda weird because we've argued over the time I spend vidding and yet he brings me songs! See, he THINKS about this. Hears a song and thinks about SPN and the vids I make. \o/ This from a man who when I talk SPN to him gives me the look that says "you're mistaking me for someone who cares".

Anyway. To the song..... It's friggin' perfect for S4 and I have NO idea how he knows that. Not only that, it's freakin' wincest. (Well, my take on it.) How does he know that???!!

It has lines like:

You are getting in the way
And I have nothing left to say

I will brush off all the dirt
And I will pretend it didn’t hurt

Dream brother, my killer, my lover
Dream brother, my killer, my lover

Sorry? My brother, my lover!? It's Placebo's "Battle for the Sun". I would love to vid this... (along with about 4 other songs at the moment!) It may just be beyond me but the idea of that kind of challenge appeals to me - unless one of you lovely vidders have the urge....?

In other news.....

I'm currently working on a vid I'm pretty excited about. I hate saying that because it's at this point it all falls apart .... but I'm cautiously optimistic. :)

Puppy is adorable (but I had NO IDEA how much work they were........!)

I haven't had a cigarette in 6 weeks. \o/


Also: Someone MUST have made a vid to "I Would Die for You" (Actually called "#1 Crush") by Garbage. Heard that song again recently and I would love to see a vid to that - I'm sure it must have been done, it's perfect SPN. Anyone got any links??

That's all. I'll hide away now until this vid is done. Though I've been meaning to rec some vids I've loved ... it's just getting the time....

*hugs* to you all.
