Fanvid: Sapphire & Steel - Dark Waltz

[thisbluespirit]

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 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.

Spoiler warning: clips from 5 out of the six assignments. Significant images used, but OTOH, you won't be able to tell what's going on unless you know. And even then...

(ETA: Deleted the embed because it wasn't playing at the proper speed.)


Also, very importantly, it is 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.)

Yes. I'd heard her in passing before, but I discovered during the summer that her voice actually helped with my sound thing, and I picked up Pure for 99p in a charity shop - playing it was the first time I'd been able to listen to a song out loud on my CD player for at least five months. And she does have a gorgeous voice. :-)

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!

*giggles as your penguins*

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!

Heh, yes. I was sooo bored and tired this evening, I thought I'd play with my journal settings. I suspect this one is a little too cute to last, but it's rather fun, and it'll do in honour of fic_rush! :-) And it matches my default icon.

Aw. Does that mean you get it eventually, though? Just a longer wait?

So I see... :D

I'm not sure - it just says 'Reserve'... :(

[thisbluespirit]

Hmm. It would suggest to me that it was putting you on a list, but, yes, you'd want to be sure!

Yes...
