Fanvid: Sapphire & Steel - Dark Waltz
Yes, I made it. (And have solved my problem in the short-term, although not the 'what do I do if it happens again?' So I'd still be interested in any possible ways around it. But thank you ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
justice_turtle!)
I'm quite pleased with this & I hope other people like it, too? It's my show tribute, or maybe just Elements and the strangeness of their being, or something.
I came across the song at the same time as I watched the show and they fused together in my head (I mean "Time dancers whirling past/ I gaze through the looking glass" and "Sacred geometry/ Where movement is poetry"?). Thanks to fanvidding, I can attempt to share that fusion, even if the world would rather I didn't.

fic_rush this weekend! Don't forget to join in; the more the merrier! For anyone new round here, or new-ish, fic_rush is a comm where we all try to write as much as possible during 48 hours. (But obviously, we don't write for all 48 hours each. And 'as much as possible' can be any no of words from 1 to 10,000 and of any sort of writing. Also you can come and cheer other people on. Or just bring a penguin and cause trouble, not that I would ever do that.)

With occasional ninja penguins, but you can easily avoid them. ;-)

And now I want to re-watch Sapphire and Steel! (*wonders if LoveFilm has it...*)
no subject
Aw, well, you can but try! And thanks. I find, by the time I've done with a fanvid, I really can't tell whether it's any good or not, so glad you liked it!
no subject
She's a Kiwi and a very lovely person - I'm familiar with her from Classic FM.
LoveFilm does have S&S - but only to reserve, not to rent. *pouts*
And yes, I loved the fanvid!
no subject
Aw. Does that mean you get it eventually, though? Just a longer wait?
no subject
I'm not sure - it just says 'Reserve'... :(

Thanks for sharing it!

And, lol, hey look - icon I'd forgotten making! :-D
no subject
I forgot to say that the music fitted in so well too. It was just faintly creepy, IMO, and S&S always was ever so slightly creepy - if not outright disturbing!
And yes, another one of your icons. I have quite a few on my icons page now. :oD

And thanks again - and after the comments here, I was brave enough to link to

2: awesome vid
3: I would be more coherent and squeeful but a cold ate my brain
no subject
2. Thank you! Yay! Now I have had three nice comments, I think I will take courage and risk posting it to the comm as well.
3. Aw. Still? Poor you. *sends virtual honey and lemon* (or whatever you prefer.)

Vidding is something completely off my skillset so I am pretty much in awe. :D
no subject
Heh. It is surprisingly easy. I mean, the way I do it, not when you have do more complicated things and properly prepare your clips and stuff & thread sound in and out and things. I did once make a documentary with a music montage (a fanvid now) at the end of it for media studies. It was years ago, but the time my friend and I spent in the editing suite with stuff that was about 20 years old even then, trying to get the clips right as stayed clearly in my brain. I like to think it helped a bit. :-) Collecting the clips and then exporting the file and uploading it are the worst bits, because they just all take ages to do.

(ANd when I was at college, what we had was this small room full of video players and cassette players and a screen and it recorded from one to the other and mixed them onto a new video. But there were rumours of digital stuff. People claimed the college had a digital camera somewhere... :-D)
