Vidding stuff. Thinking out loud.

[ash48]

I've all but finished my vid forsummer_sam_love. It's with my trusty betas and I know there will be tweaks and stuff to do on it but with 4 weeks to go until I have to post it there's still a lot of time. Then I'll just have to sit on it, which is never easy. *g*

I've discovered that if I have a challenge vid or auction vid to do I can't actually do anything else until it's done. It's like it nags at me. I can't think about anything else.

Which brings me to vid_the_grid. I have 3 prompts to go before I complete the table. The last three are ones that I will have to think about and actually vid to, rather that make a vid and it magically fitting into a prompt.

They are:

Advertisement: I'm thinking a promo for that. I have 2 songs I want to use. I'm contemplating making 2 short ones.

Colour: At one stage I wanted to make a vid specifically looking at the use of colour in the show. But I just can't get my head around that. So I'm thinking of focusing on exteriors. I think this will be a totally self indulgent vid as I can't see it being particularly entertaining, but there's a piece of music I have always wanted to use, so I might just have to be a bit wanky and try for an "arty" vid. (argh... that's bound to not work!)

Black and White: Hmmm.... No idea. I really don't want to make a vid and just make all the clips B&W. The B&W needs to make a statement or enhance the vid somehow. Be there for a reason....hmm... I'll have to ponder that one.

Then of course there's all those other songs I'm itching to get to. (starrylizard that song you sent me is gnawing at my brain damnit! That's begging to be vidded!)

It's the Crossfire song that's on my brain at the moment. I think because I keep hearing it on the radio and every time I hear it I keep seeing a vid!

Are you thinking about that Lamb song? I might be able to work it for one of the propmts. Or if not might do it anyway. Let me know, because for you?... absolutely *g*


B&W is just a prompt, so it doesn't have to all be in B&W.

Yeah, and in fact the next vid (well, the Levee Breaks one) has some B&W clips in it but I think I'd really like to really explore the whole feel of B&W. I'd almost like to do genre type vid. 40's style or something like that. (I think WAY too hard about these things!)

I think you're likely to be the first person to complete a table on vid_the_Grid! Exciting! \o/

Hee! Not there yet! 3 to go. But I'm on a mission now!!

Well both those song NEED to be vidded in my brain and I just can't vid atm, so if you do either/both of them I'll be very happy! :D

I think I'm close to deciding on a new computer which means I'm a step closer to vidding properly again. :)
