ash48I know this has been rec'd all around the place recently AND NO EFFING WONDER!!. Oh. My. God. I was in colour meta heaven reading this. It's incredibly detailed, well observed and well, just plain wonderful. (And to think I was contemplating writing some colour meta myself. *sheesh* This says it all And the post also links to some other wonderful colour meta discussions. AWESOME!

zimshan, who I'm currently fan girling like whoa! :)
This makes me want to make a vid highlighting the use of colour in the show. I have NO IDEA how to structure that. What kind of form it could possibly take. Let alone music. Though sometimes something like that can sit in the brain and suddenly... BING! Idea. ...*waits* "Supernatural: At the Movies" was originally inspired by observing the way some scenes in Supernatural were lit in a very film noir'ish way. So yeah... never know.... *taps foot*
Speaking of vidding. I'm currently chopping up footage that's not SPN. *gulps* Heaps of fun but oh so time consuming. 2 hours equates to about 2 secs at the moment! Also, I think my "can't do without" editing tool has to be my "slicing" tool (even looks like a razor blade in my program). I'm sure I'm abusing it! :) I have to say I'm curious whether other vidders have a favourite -"go to" tool. (or transition, effect etc.)?? I couldn't do without "colour correct" either. Especially with SPN footage.
In other news....
Off to Sydney on Friday. Well the Central Coast. Niece's 21st. Surprise visit. For her and for me. Folks bought me a ticket which I didn't expect \o/. So yay! 2 trips to the east in as many weeks. My biggest concern of course is.. will I be able to watch my show?! I'm taking my laptop... so *yikes* I HOPE SO!! I am so keen to see where they take it from here. I desperately want the boys to now start working together. Potentially, we are in for the biggest final episode TO DATE. I haven't been let down with season finales yet so I can't WAIT to see where they'll take it. :) Which of course means looking forward to the episodes leading up to it. :D :D
*hugs* you all.
