Vid Bookmark Dump

[lunabee34]

OMG, y'all. (I was almost gonna ask penknife what part of GA s/he's from, but then I chickened out) How did I get so many bookmarks? *cries* Short and blurby. Gotta save my wrists for other things.

You're Still Here by Loki; SPN; Sam/Dean
I love vids that tell a clear narrative the most and this is a fine example. While I could do without the manips (it's weird; as much as I love Wincest, I am not a huge fan of the manips because I think that canon does a good enough job of convincing me they're sleeping together without manipulating the footage in a way that always looks false to me no matter how well it's done), I think this is a very touching vid about how Dean knows exactly how dark Sam is and how he will never forsake his little brother no matter what.

Run for Our Lives by NYCalls 0909; SPN; Sam and Dean
I love the grainy, smudgy filter over all the footage. It makes me feel like even more of a voyeur.

Dean Winchester, God's Gonna Cut You Down by saintmaverick; SPN; Dean
Gotta love the Cash. Such exquisite black and white.

Bohemian Like You by astolat; SGA; McShep with a side of Ronon
I LOVE THIS VID!!!!!! I first saw it when cathexys burned me seasons two and three of SGA and she generously included a DVD of fanvids. I defy you not to love this vid. It's just so cheekily edited.

I Am/Lamb by *flails* It is lim? SGA; John
It's the Cash again (I kinda think that cover album was the best thing he ever did. *ducks the lightning like a proper blasphemer*) This is the kind of thing I have no words for. What's going on visually in this vid is technically beyond my capacity to describe, so um...fire bad, vid pretty? This looks like some bizarre surveillence video that the Ancients took from another plane.

Whatever by Luminosity and Sisabet; Ats
Angel sure does get around doesn't he? *guffaws*

Ing by laurashapiro; BtVS; Anya
I think that Anya just might be my very favorite female Jossverse character and this vid is such a wonderful character study of her.

James Marsters covering The Cars: You know, I dig it and then it makes me giggle madly. You'll know when. Josh is going to divorce me over this song. It was a dealbreaker. *g*

I've got a vid rec for you, my friend Oneofaradia won some awards at Revelcon (which was so fun) for her vids. she does wonderful stuff.

In any case, i don't watch SPN and her SPN vid made me get teary eyed because I immediately knew what was going on. All of her vids are awesome but here's the three that we all cheered for at the con:
http://www.gypsysgate.com/home.html

on the front page: Sex Bomb (a multi-fandom ode to pretty men & girls)
Supernatural: Solemn Hour
Stargate SG-1: Yes I Do (jack/daniel) & there's a great tribute to the women of stargate on the same page.

the con vids competition really impressed me. One of my faves, incredibly well done, was a music vid for the donald strachey mysteries. I couldn't get enough of it.

Oh wow! Thank you so much!

*runs off to listen*

Totally digging on your icon too, BTW!

[kaleecat]

hope you have fun listening. thanks are good, better yet send her feedback if you like any. (it's fun sitting with her when she makes vids.)

Yeah, i like that icon. it's fun & nostalgic since they're no longer making classic polaroid film. It's by nefernat

[lunabee34.livejournal.com]

Yes! Feedback must be dispensed. :)

I did not know that! Is Polaroid really no more?

[kaleecat]

yeah, it was last fall that Polaroid announced they would no longer be making the instant film ("polaroids"). There was a semi-big outcry but I'm fairly sure they went through with the decision. hmmmm, i'll have to google it.

penknife is a she, fwiw. I thought she lived in the DC area (and checking UserInfos, hers doesn't say, but her partner artaxastra's says Maryland), or do you mean she said something about being from GA originally?

I think she means childhood from, not living there now. :)

*nods*

(And feel free to ask her what area of GA she's from. She won't bite, I promise.)

My crazy lj issues, let me show you them

[lunabee34.livejournal.com]

Heeeee. I didn't think that. :) I just always feel weird commenting in meta posts that I only found through metafandom if I don't have something to say about the issue at hand. It always feels to me like I'm presupposing a relationship or friendship that isn't there if I merely chitchat. Does that make sense?

Re: My crazy lj issues, let me show you them

[hermionesviolin.livejournal.com]

Understandable. I think this is a low-scale enough meta post that you'd be fine -- and you could always be like, "Oh, I'm from yadda-yadda GA, which area of GA are you from? And to bring this back to the topic at hand, here are my thoughts on/experiences with "y'all." "
