I know what I am about to do is bad form but damnit, I need to growl and grumble and just... arghhh...

So, I decided to do some "research" for my next vid (part 2 for my winning bidder). I needed to remind myself where I might find some good old fashioned Dean hitting on girls scenes (remember when he used to do that?) and basically Dean being damn sexy, so I thought I do some YT Supernatural vid surfing.

I figured vids using Brittany's "Womanizer" might be good. Lends itself to what I might be looking for. But MY GOD! The crap I came across. (yes, yes, I know it's not good form to diss other people works.... but arghhhh). I just don't get it. Clips that have NOTHING to do with the song or relate to any "theme" of the vid (yes, Dean might look sexy when he's looking at his dead father...but... arghhh, not appropriate!!) gazzillion talking head, long, loooong scenes, credits and just...just... /o\. But here's the thing... one had about 84,000 views. What the...?!??!?

I suppose it's because I usually only watch vids posted here or YT recs. Which means I am totally spoiled by amazing and wonderfully constructed works. And have been for a long time. I just didn't realise it could be so baaaad.

Ok. End rant. I don't mean to be mean. I just had to get that off my chest. *phew*

That said. Can anyone rec me a good Dean and his "moves" vids. I reckon there must be one out there. Or even a montage of sexy Dean scenes...(I know they'd be some of those!!)... but...only ones I can actually sit through. ;) It's totally for research purposes you understand....:D


Better now...

ETA: For what it's worth I don't believe Dean is a womanizer at all. I think he's a healthy male who appreciates the female form and enjoys sex, but I also think he has a respect for women that is quite deep and not often realised on the show. There's meta here that will have already been written somewhere no doubt, much better than I could write it. But yeah... just thought I'd mention that. :)

Well, I think I have to be honest here and say I've made some pretty bad mistakes in my time and they're all still up there on YouTube - hell, I'm probably still making them! But 84,000 hits? *sheesh* I count myself lucky if I get around the 500 mark - I know, hits shouldn't matter and I try not to think about it, but the harder I try to get a vid right, seems the less hits I get, does that mean I'm getting better at this? *shakes head* Logic fails me where YouTube is concerned.

Oh man, we've all made mistakes but there are "mistakes" when we're learning and just plain bad vidding. Or maybe I'm being to hard.

I count myself lucky if I get around the 500 mark

See, this is what really makes my blood boil. You are a wonderful, classy vidder and yet to only be averaging those hits makes no sense. Especially when crap is up in the tens of thousands (there's some awesome stuff up that high as well - but just not as much).

YT doesn't make a lot of sense and I probably really didn't realise that until I started digging around.

(I'm going to be hosting a vid discussion on this late next month at spnroundtable. Keep your eye out because I'd love to hear more from you on this. *g*)
