Thoughts.

I look back and I suppose I'm pretty happy with what I've made this year. I've really enjoyed working on the auction vids (In te Domine, I Go To Work, Mr. Boombastic). It's a different challenge because I'm working with someone else's song and idea, but I like the way it made me think differently when approaching a vid. Likewise with other people's songs and ideas (Love Shack and Wrong).

Working with maichan808 is always terrific fun. It was great to collaborate on two vids this year. \o/

I think I'm most proud of "Wrong". I did things a little differently and that always excites me. I was also happy to have squeezed in one non SPN vid in. It was on my to do list last year so I'm pleased I actually did it.

I'm looking forward to the year ahead. I have a couple of idea buzzing around my brain. But *shrugs* who know what the next (vidding) year will bring. :D

My, I still remember the difficult birth of "Behind Blue Eyes" like it was yesterday. *says your fan number 1 and awaits more vids next year* ;)

Wonderful creations you made. You can really be proud of them and yourself. *{vidder's hug}* :D

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Oh man - yes. It's weird to think this time last year I was struggling with that. (And guess what? I've un-shelved that vid we were talking about a while back. Still not sure if I'm going to stick to it. It's damn depressing!!)

Thanks for all your wonderful support honey. It always means such a lot to me!

*heffa huggles*

Hee! icon... :D

*gasps*

What? I missed the Wrong vid. *runs off to download*. Thank you for posting this or else I might have missed something very very important. ;)

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hee! I'm glad you spotted it here then... :D

You are awesome dahling and have racked up quite the vidding resume. Your vids inspire, entertain, and celebrate the art form. From the bottom of this struggling vidder's heart... thank you :)

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Wow, that's a lovely thing to say. Thank you so very much *beams*

*hugs*

Congrats on 14 vids! That is quite impressive. I made 1 :( lol

[ash48.livejournal.com]

I sometimes wonder where I find the time. But I've just discovered that I can't NOT vid... I have to have something always on the go. (I just tired to go 2 weeks without vidding. I lasted 1 week... :( )

I really hope we see more vids from you next year hun. :)

xx

[mithborien.livejournal.com]

So do I! I am actually on holidays at the moment for about a month so hopefully I can push a couple of vids out.

And for some reason I am not getting comment notifications from LJ. Hmm...

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Yay for holidays AND pushing out some vids..

LJ did that to me once. I had to go in and redo my notification settings. No idea why things changed because I hardly ever go into settings. So maybe check there?

Have a great break.

Maybe I need to tsk e spook back on 2010 and think about what I've got accomplished.might help encourage me to continue on in the vein I'm currently headed in...

[ash48.livejournal.com]

You should. I reckon you'd have twice as many as me? It's nice to look back and see what's been accomplished. You'll have an impressive body of work...:D

[greenpear.livejournal.com]

I just did a head count. I did 45 vids this year so far. I hadn't realized just how many I had done...

Kinda scares me in a way. :)

[ash48.livejournal.com]

FORTY FIVE!! Holy crap! That's massive!

*bows down*

That IS kinda scary! Hee! And here I was thinking you might have simply doubled mine.... :D

xx

[greenpear.livejournal.com]

Kinda surprised me too. And I'll probably have one (or maybe two) more before the year's end.

Mine are, sometimes, easier that yours. If I can figure out how to recreate a sequence then it goes rather fast. Yours need to work on stimulating an emotional response. Definitely coming at it in a different fashion.

Plus mine are usually only one minute long...

But we all have fun, don't we. :)

[ash48.livejournal.com]

But we all have fun, don't we.

We do indeed!

Here's to 2011! :D

[greenpear.livejournal.com]

And maybe I'll shoot for 50. :)

[greenpear.livejournal.com]

I just did a head count. I did 45 46 vids this year so far. I hadn't realized just how many I had done...

Kinda scares me in a way. :)


Yeah, just finished the latest one. Kinda different than what I've done before...

[hay1ock.livejournal.com]

\o/ Yay for vids.
You did better than me - I made 5 and not an SPN vid in sight *sadface*
Have a great xmas and here's to another year of vidding :P X

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hayley! *glomps*

Oh hun, I do miss your spn vids... but I know we must all move on. I suspect I will one day. The bug still has me by the short and curlies - so I must obey... :)

Have a wonderful Chrissy hun. And here's cheers to another vidding year...

<333

[zimshan.livejournal.com]

I just look at the number fourteen and my mouth falls open. Considering it's normally a good year if I get more than one done. I don't know how you guys even begin to manage it! But it's ridiculously impressive!

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hee! And that's probably only a third as much as secretlytodream.

I've discovered I can't NOT vid - I need to be playing around with something all the time. I think that's how I ended up with 14. It's a couple less that last year though.

Thanks honey.
<33

[callme-k.livejournal.com]

It's always been a goal of mine to make one vid a month....however, the way it turns out is that I work on ONE vid for several months *shrugs*:p
It's been so long since I vidded SPN that I forgot I actually made two this year (3 vids all up though) How sad is that?! /o\

Hun, I think some of your very best work is in the list above; I love, too, that you continue to embrace all themes, that with your vids we laugh & cry over SPN....as it should be. I can't wait to see what the new year brings <333

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Well, at least you DID vid!! \o/

But I know what it's like when it just doesn't happen. It's a bit like vid I'm working on at the moment (ooh, I sent that in a PM to you. Did you get it?) I started it and it just wasn't working - no matter what I did. Still not sure it is...

Thanks sweetie. Thanks for your constant support and encouragement. <333

[callme-k.livejournal.com]

Sorry, meant to mention that, yes, I did get the pm and I've d/l the vid. Will give it a look tonight:)

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Cool. No hurry hun. I'm off on holiday tomorrow and won't be able to vid until I get back. (ack! 2 weeks, I think it might kill me!)

_sharvie_ took a look and she thinks it has potential, but I think it will need a lot of work to get the structure right.

Anyway - I'd be really keen to know what you make of it.

Cheers <333

[boom-queen.livejournal.com]

Congrats, that is an impressive number! And looking at the list brings up lots of happy vid memories :D

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Awwww, thanks so much hun. And thanks for watching and for your encouragement. It always makes me *beam*.

<33

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Oh hey hey you were really productive this year! :) I loved a lot of your videos, and I really think you tried some new and interesting things and you definitely grew up as a vidder ♥

I think I need to do one of those as well..../o\

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much hun. That's a lovely thing to say - I like to think I've grown. I know I have more growing to di, but that's exciting for me. Hee! Though nothing will stop me making my silly crack vids! :D

And yep you should do one. I guessimated above that you'd have 3 times as many as me... (?), so I'd like to see how close I got...:)

*smish*
<33

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

hahah we'll see. I put together the list of vids - in the second half of it I've made twice as less vids than in the first half. Now I just have to do some commenting :)

[ash48.livejournal.com]

I thought you might have slowed down during the second half of the year... though I'm pretty sure there will still be a lot! :D

I look forward to seeing your list. :)
