you probably weren't expecting this

Unsurprisingly I am like the seven millionth person to vid this movie to this song, but GUESS HOW MUCH I CARE.

This is only the third vid I've ever made (and my first in what, five years?) and was also a means by which I familiarised myself with iMovie's weird settings, so it's not perfect -- dear Disney, why are the night scenes in this movie so very fucking dark? -- but I am proud of it. LOOK AT THEIR ADORABLE FACES GUYS.

I've worked out the reason I enjoy vidding so much: it's choreography for lazy people. It feeds that part of my soul that deeply enjoys working out moves for people to do to music, and then critically watching them do it OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

SO AWESOME.

Vidding is so hard. I have a project I've been poking at intermittedly for years. In awe of anyone who finishes!

(But I don't have a mac and don't like WMM, so)

I knew that it would devour my life if I let it, so I carefully spent four hours on the thing and now it is DONE and I am very deliberately putting all my other awesome vid ideas away until after exams. (Or until I get a HD .avi version of Inception...)

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

(and also, what is this free time of yours?)

(This ate up three evenings' worth of study breaks.

And a bit of study time as well.

THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH NEBULOUS DEADLINES LIKE 'EXAMS'.)

You are SO FAST!! I'm wicked impressed. :D Also: WHAT IS THE SMALL REPTILE. WHY IS IT NOT MINE.

OMG THIS IS FABULOUS. ...and four hours? Um. You are MAGIC.

[fahye.livejournal.com]

To be fair, I had a lot of it already planned in my head before I opened the software.

Wait have you NOT SEEN THIS MOVIE.

COSMAS.

omg, you did not just say that! Physical choreography is way easier than clipping .mkvs or removing interlacing frm low budget 90s anime. *resumes tearing hair out*

Holy crap, that's awesome! You just nailed the timing.

I just saw this movie last week, and frankly my own music video for this would have to be to the song "Beer For My Horses", because that horse had me giggling like a 4-year-old.

I was NOT expecting this, as your subject line says, but MAN DID I ENJOY IT. So freaking cute!

ETA: I should also mention, because it amuses me, that this song is one of Tris's ways of dealing with me when I'm cranky. I just remember us driving to see lodessa and being mad about something and she was like AND NOW A SONG FOR MY FRIEND CARRIE! :D? and started playing this.

Ah, yes, but you see, you are a proper vidder :)

I must say I like the fact that no yelling is required in vidding. Or rather: you can yell, but it's not likely to make any difference.

[fahye.livejournal.com]

HAHAHA I am imagining that video now.

[fahye.livejournal.com]

Favourite Disney couple foreveeeeeeer.

[sainfoin-fields.livejournal.com]

FAHYE THIS IS ADORABLE!!!! I LOFF IT.

Ahh, this is so great! I DID NOT KNOW YOU VIDDED, so you are correct, I was not expecting that! But your vidding is fab, and also I am all full of warm fuzzies now.
