Thinking out loud...

Pardon me while I muse out loud about all these vids I'm thinking about at the moment .... Strangely enough this actually helps get my thoughts in place and it might just help me decide which one of these to commit to. I often look back on these posts as a reminder of what I was thinking at the time. (And yes, I'm starting to itch because it's been a week since I open my editing program...)

So:

Crackish Cas/Dean vid to Wind Beneath My Wings. I have actually started this and sometimes it makes me giggle out loud, but then I think I'll be the only one who understands the joke. Plus deliberately making a "Bad Vid" is tricky. I think it's just gonna look like all my other vids.... *eep*

Impala Vid: I've wanted to make an Impala vid for ages and thanks to the amazing

secretlytodream I have the perfect piece of music. But. It's hard. It's instrumental and I imagine it having that kinda look Loki achieves in her vids. But. That doesn't come easy to me. If in fact it will come at all. (which I doubt actually). So just the fact that it'll be hard and time consuming is keeping me away from it. But the challenge excites me. Argh.

Sam vid After making my Dean vid, I want to make a Sam vid. I have finally settled on a song. The lyrics tell exactly the story I want to tell, but the song itself I'm not 100% sure about. But. What the heck. I can't stop thinking about it, so I'm going to go with it.

Castiel vid This amuses me a bit because I wouldn't say I'm a huge Cas fan. But he's growing on me and I heard a song recently (a Mika song can you believe it!?) that I think would be great for a Jimmy/Castiel vid. It'll be short and (hopefully) atmospheric so that appeals to me at the moment.

Sam/Dean schmoopy, feel good vid OMG. I heard this song and just thought of the boys and I think it might be on the top of my list at the moment. Quite different for me (song wise) , but I just picture all those yummy bro!love moments.

Farewell to Jo and Ellen vid This will be bitter/sweet, (more sweet then bitter) but I'm not sure whether to actually keep the song until the end of the season and include all the other characters that will be (no doubt!) killed off?! OR strike while the iron's hot. Hmmmm..... *ponders*

Damn! That's too many. But feel free to nudge me if any of these sound appealing. :)

MAKE THEM ALL!!!

If you need help with that awesomely-bad-on-purpose look for your crack vid, YOU KNOW WHO TO CALL.

And schmoop/feel good is certainly welcome for the holiday season!

Hee! I kinda want to make them all at the same time!

Oh and yes. I think my bad-on-purpose vid will definitely need some looking at if I ever get it off the ground! *smish*

And schmoop/feel good is certainly welcome for the holiday season!

Yeah - that's my feeling at the moment. :)(actually, I wouldn't mind an opinion on the song... would you mind if I sent it to you for a listen?)

Of course not. Send it on over.

Sam/Dean schmoopy, feel good vid OMG.

HI, YES PLEASE. I NEED SCHMOOPY SAM/DEAN GOODNESS SO BADLY.

Hee! I think I'm always in need of schmoopy sam/dean goodness. :D It's where I'm heading, so we'll see what happens.... :)

Currently I have 46 folders of "vids I'm thinking of doing". Six is definitely not too many.

When I finish on I just look over the list and decided which one is next.

OMG! 46! Ok, I'm putting this all into perspective now....

*shakes head* 46! Phew.

Though I wish I could just pick one and say that's it. They kinda pick me. And at the moment I haven't had one of them pick me... they are all just tapping me quietly on the shoulder.

xx

This morning it was 45 folders. Then I accidently stumbled across information about a show I had decided not to watch - Eastwick. People were raving on how it was a Charmed ripoff.

So I checked if anyone had made a Eastwick in the Charmed style vid and came up empty. So I decided the void needed filled.

That's generally what happens. My fandom is all of television, whether I watch the shows or not. A good fit is a good fit. :D

That last reply was me. Didn't realize I wasn't logged in. :D

And since my last response to you the number is now 47 folders as I just had a thought of how hilarious it would be if I did Dexter as a sitcom.

I honestly can't stop my brain from working overtime on these ideas...

Ha! Our brains need to stop working overtime on this stuff I reckon. I'm just thankful I only have 6 in my folder! And you've got 47! Sheesh!

Good luck with it all hun! :D

So just the fact that it'll be hard and time consuming is keeping me away from it.
I SO KNOW THE FEELING! Seriously, but it's more about length that usually keep me away from starting a vid. Then - effects.

So many plans! I'd really love to see the bro!love vid from you hon, and of course Ellen and Jo vid &earts;

And you know that I'll always help you, right? ;)

Heya! *glomps*

I started playing with the vid and in fact I discovered some nifty effects that I didn't know I could do but damn! It just doesn't come intuitively to me. I get the sense that you just know how to make a vid look the way you want it to instinctively. :D

And yes. If I get this going I'll definitely be tapping you on the shoulder. *smish*

Bro!love is looking less likely - as it's probably more angsty than I had orginally planned. (Due to the song) But we'll see....

xx

take your time bb )))) It took me more than a few months to start vidding intuitively...)) And still more times than less I open vegas and I can sit there for a pretty long time, trying to figure out what colors would go better with the song, what kind of editing, what concept, you know? It's not always that I see the image right away in my head wen I listen to the song.

I want the Sam vid!! Especially if it's still the song you mentioned a while ago! *nudges you vigorously* (lol)
xx

Oooh - what song was that?? *meep* I've had a few Sam songs that I have been considering. Head like a Hole is just proving to be toooooo difficult, if that's the one I mentioned.

I'm definitely going to make a Sam vid though. *snuggles him*

xx

No, it's the one you quoted answering to deirdre_c further down. It's a special song to me and it's perfect for Sam. Don't worry about it being "naff". It'll be great!

The other vids sound interesting, too. And of course I want to see them all (rather sooner than later).
I'm such a demanding fan....lol.

So, let the vidding begin!!:):)

Oh yay! Then that's the one it is. Great. \o/

I think Sam may have jumped the cue! :D:D

Oh Sammy... there can never be too much Sam love... ::nods::

Oh I agree!! My Sam love know no bounds....

(And I am desperate to get back to your awesome story... I'm hoping for a block of time this weekend so I am absorb it all in one hit!! :D)

xx

Snuggled up in bed with a long story when it's cold outside is the very best way to read fic... :)

that I think would be great for a Jimmy/Castiel vid

Ooh, kinky pairing. ;)

But you know I'm voting for Sam vid, Sam vid, SAM VID (followed closely by Sam/Dean). I'm pitifully single-minded. *g*

YAY ASH-VIDDING!

Hee! Not sure it will be a pairing as such... I forget that slash can me a pairing. Though I originally wrote Ellen/Jo and thought , ah no... that's not what I'm meaning... :)

And yes! SAAMMMMM I am so torn with the song I've picked though because it's like yay lyrics my love is revenge and it being a bit, um... naff is the only word I know but I think that's an Aussie expression. But I think I'll be playing with that vid sooner rather than later.. :)

*smish*

It seems like kind of a no-brainer to tell you to make them all. :-)

I understand your dilemma with the Jo/Ellen vid. Like I'd mentioned previously, I have an idea for one myself. I'm just wondering if I have enough footage with just the two of them, and if I incorporate the guys into it as well, what does that do to the POV.

These are the questions...

Congrats, by the way, on your DPTM Awards! Well deserved. :-)

Heya. Yeah, I have this song and on the one hand I'd love to make it for Jo and Ellen, but equally I might save it OR use it just to make a S5 kinda recap for Christmas.... oh the dilemma! :D It's short so that's why I thought I might be able to do Jo and Ellen for it.

There's not a huge amount of footage of them though - so yeah, the song you have would either need to be shortish, or .... hmmm, I see what you mean about POV.... tricky. But I'm sure you'll work it out. :)

Congrats, by the way, on your DPTM Awards! Well deserved. :-)

Thanks so much. That was a lovely surprise. And to you too!! :D :D

Sam vid! And I keep hoping for a Jo and Ellen vid just for them, starting with S2. Also, the Jimmy+Castiel (haha, I simply can't put a slash between those names) sounds intriguing.

Yay Sam! And hee! I was just commenting to Dei that I didn't mean the slash as in um.. slash. :) Just as in those 2 characters. A bit the same way I couldn't write Jo/Ellen...

:)

I like all your ideas :D!

Yesterday, I thought up a vid for the Impala as well. The song is so weird though, lol and a little humorous.

My SPN list is even more huge since I only did 1 vid this year. *yikes*

Good luck, sweetie!

Thanks darl. Oh you have an Impala idea too? It's weird eh? I'd usually want to do something lighthearted but I really want to show how the car is with them through thick and thin. So it'd be kinda reflective. But the effects are holding me back on that one, particularly as I'm don't use effects very often.

Thanks sweetie and I hope to see what you do with the Impala! :D

Thanks :D. Oh I know what you mean about using effects holding you back. It's a lot of work.

We're in for treats from you, no matter what you choose to do. I, for one, and totally up for some Sam/Dean schmoop but really, everything sounds wonderful. You're a gift. Thank you.

Awww, that's so sweet. Thank you. :D

My Dean/Sam schmoop my end up being more angsty than schmoop though... not really sure yet. The song is a bit tricky, but I'll see what happens...

Something will happen, because I can't help myself!

*smish*

Returning the *smish*

:-)

Ohh, the schmoopy, feel good vid! *wants to see that*

And the cracky Dean vid. You are great at crack. ;-)

*nudges and pokes*

Ohh, the schmoopy, feel good vid! *wants to see that*

Hee! Though the more I listen to the song the more it's feeling like and angsty Sam/Dean with a side of schmoop.... not sure yet. The lyrics are angsty and the tune is kind boppy.... *eek*

Oh and I'd love to be able to get my head around the Wind beneath my Wings one... I even got shots of eagles flying and everything :D.... but it's also damn tricky...

Thanks for the encouragement. *iz poked!*

I've got to vote for the schmoopy one of course-love those sweet brotherly moments.

And I love me some Dean/Castiel, and I love the idea of a funny vid about them.

Yeah - those two are certainly trying to push themselves to the top.. though I'm thinking Sam/Dean my end up being a bit more angsty than feel good ... maybe.... not sure yet....

And the trick with the Dean/Castiel one that I'm approaching it very (very) seriously, as in treating the idea as if it's a good one, but equally try to get across that I know it's not.... *eep* that's tricky!

Thanks hun. Something will happen I'm sure... :)

I want them all!!! *grabby hands*

But I suppose, if I had to choose order...hmmm.

Well, it's been a while since someone made a really great Impala vid, and I do love me some schmoop. The Dean/Cas crack sounds like fun as well, as does the Sam vid (particularly because I loved what you did with your Dean vid).

Aw, hell, can we just pool our time and send it to you so you can start right away? <33

Yay! I love the order... :)

The Impala one (in my mind) would look so cool, but I'm struggling to pull it off at the moment (I've actually started that one, but it's freaking me out a bit). And the schmoopy one may end up being more angsty than schmoopy - I've been listening to the song more and more and the lyrics are quite ansgsty, but the tune is fairly cheery. Strange one...

Aw, hell, can we just pool our time and send it to you so you can start right away? <33

Oh yes please. That's be awesome!! Time is always the problem... It's wonderful to have great slabs of time, but more often it's grabbing a few moments here and there...

Thanks for the encouragement hun! Something will happen because I can't help myself... :D
