vid thanks, break, rec, and ponderings

[ash48]

1. First up I have to say how thrilled I've been with the response that 9 to 5 received. I gotta say I just didn't expect it. Particularly as a lot of the feedback was about the song choice and the feeling that it wouldn't suit Supernatural, but that somehow it worked. So, thanks! :)

2. I have one more vid to post (next week) and then that may be it for a while. My hubby's family (from England) is descending upon us soon so the next 3 months are going to be pretty hectic. And me sneaking off to vid just won't look good. I mean, it's all good, we all get on, but life changes when visitors are around. I am hoping though I will have more opportunities to watch some vids and hopefully do some rec'ing. :) and any wee opportunity will see me opening my editing program no doubt!

Also, I have nothing screaming at me to make at the moment. I have a few little ideas floating about but nothing that feels urgent (like it usually does).

3. I have had a few requests to make a Castiel vid. I would like to but I don't know what angle to take on this angel. I mean if I could come up with something like THIS (Smile Like You Mean It), I would be pretty damn happy. This is a wonderful look at future Castiel and as much as anything shows what an incredible performance Misha gave us. All smiles and no happiness. Wonderful.

*koff* If you have any ideas you'd like to see me try let me know..... I can't ship Dean/Cas because it messes with my Sam/Dean OTP. (Though my crackish Dean/Cas vid might make it to air one day if I can figure out how to work some of the lyrics to "Wind Beneath My Wings".... "you must have been cold there in my shadow"..? nah, got nothing. Brainstorm anyone? *g*).

4. While I'm here, meta rec for 5.04 because bardicvoice writes wonderfully concise and insightful meta whenever she writes and this is no exception.

Phew! That's the longest blog yet I reckon. I must be gaining confidence! :)


PS: To those going to Wincon have an awesome time. Even though it would probably scare me to death I would love to be there to meet you all.

For the Castiel vid, perhaps it can be something showing his slow descent into rebellion? He was the mindless soldier, following orders, and then doubt starts to seep in when he sees that heaven -- and the people in charge -- aren't as pure and holy as he expected. His whole universe is then tilted, until he doesn't know what to believe anymore.

Add in what Raphael told him about the existence of God, and he's become both rebellious *and* hopeless.

Yes - sounds like a great idea. I actually really like this aspect of his character. Trick is... finding an appropriate song... *ponders*
