vid notes: action + fun = NCIS

behind the jokes and the pranks, the NCIS team for sure means business


random notes: ... It ... Is ... Done ... !

I`ve started working on this vid almost two years ago already. This does not mean this vid is something special because it took me this long to finish it.

(It is pretty much cut`n slap only, with a few additional transitions aso. Btw, I`m not one to cut on each and every beat. The speed of this vid, is what I feel comfortable with while watching.)

Nope, it means after starting to work on it, the bunny went on vacation a few seconds into the vid, I couldn`t locate several scenes I wanted to have, got frustrated, lost the original Corel file because of a computer crash also inbetween, and decided to focus on vids (and graphics) I could finish.

Recently I`v started cutting what still needed to be cut (finaly), from several seasons of NCIS, thought: "okay, NOW I have a clip-log for almost each and every NCIS scene, NOW I`m gonna try to kill this damned video"

Thought, and done ;D

It`s once again, a team video. But the focus is on Tony, Ziva and Gibbs.

The video is not just action galore, I`ve included funny moments also. Because for me, this is what makes NCIS as good as it is. It`s the combination of great characters, action and fun. It`s knowing that underneath the jokes and the fun, is a team more than capable of doing what needs to be done.


THANK YOU! goes to [personal profile] dragonfly11 for *testdriving* this NCIS video of mine, and for the surgestions made *hugs and sends flowers*


"Pump It" is video no.12 this year, that`s a new low for me. It is the 2nd NOT Supernatural or BSG vid in 2011 also ... *adds NCIS to "has done in 2011" list*, it`s my 4th NCIS vid in a total. I hope, since I`m now sitting an a shiny NCIS clip-log, it won`t take me as long as it did to get another NCIS vid on the way (I`ve done the last NCIS *only* vid in 2009 *yikes*)


I hope you`re able to enjoy what I came up with. If so, have fun watching!

WARNING: I`ve slaughtered the song



vid notes: "I`m fine"

Everyone, or everything, wants, and sometimes gets, a piece of the Winchester boys.

still, they are "fine" Well, if saying so makes them feel better ...



random notes: I`ve added a warning, because of the song.

Usually I don´t cut songs. From time to time I get rid of some parts which I don`t need (like neverending repeats aso). This time, there`s barely anything left of the song. I`ve only wanted to have the opening, and the end. So, I got rid of everything inbetween (btw, voice over alert half way through the video!)

About the video itself, well: I had the idea after watching the first few episodes of season 7. Sam and Dean claimed, more than ever, to be fine.

imaginary Lucifer was having a blast inside Sam`s head, everything that happened with Castiel, the Leviathans, Dean drinking like a fish, the secrets, the nightmares aso, still they always claimed to be fine.

Riiiight

I took this song, which is called "Feeling Good", and slapped scenes/moments in which both boys are anything but fine.


hmmm, maybe I should add a warning for my (at times more than) weird ideas also


anyway, I hope you`re able to enjoy this latest SPN vid of mine

(be sure, I had fun doing it, Sam and Dean, not so much *is evil*)

vid notes: After John arrived in the UT he did not just loose his family and friends, he also found new friends, and family.

random notes: my first Farscape vid since, forever.

At least it seems with this video I`ve broken the curse that`s been called "kahesha`s only able to vid BSG and Supernatural in 2011" ... ;D

Begining of September I went to see "UNHEILIG" live in concert (what a show...whoa), I had this version of the song sitting on my drive before we went to see them live already. And I knew I was going to use it for Farscape, and Farscape only.

A few days ago I thought why not give it a try (since, yeah, I wanted to add something beside SPN and BSG to my 2011 vid list. And after the last vid I hit a vidding black hole of doom, so I needed a song/show I really like to get me back into vidding), a few days `n nights, 1 bottle of wine, some curse words, a lot of swearing (Farscape clip memory? whut?) and moving `n deleting clips later, it is done.

the song is called "Born to Live" , it`s about loss, and what you can win by loosing someone (memories and hope for the future, aso). I thought about John, who lost his family after he stranded in the UT. On the other hand, by loosing one family, he found another. I`ve mixed those two main themes for the video. The memory of what´s been *lost* and the memory of what´s been *found*.


No translation, sorry, I`m too lazy to provide a decent translation. Even less since half of the time almost no one gets what I wanna tell when I`m vidding english songs anyway, sooo .... you get one in German for a change. Be sure, it´s not going to do more damage then usually *snort*

pass word: soldier



vid notes: This is all about "Saving people, hunting things ..." aka Dean in action, doing what needs to be done.


random notes: No Demons, no Angels, no Deals, this video is all about awesome!Dean in action. In actions means, he`s being tossed around a lot also *evil grin*

season 1-3, with a few, lonely, season 6 clips inbetween.

At first I didn`t know how to get this vid done. Then I came up with the idea of having it focused on the MotW, the "Saving people, hunting things ..." line. This meant, no angels and demons, no deals, no season 4&5.

I always try NOT to vid the lyrics too literal, I always try to stay away from "literal" as much as I can on a regular base. Like, when the lyrics mention the word "crying", or "cry", you barely see me using someone actually crying. "crying" can also mean (in my twisted way of thinking) sad or in pain, and being sad or in pain doesn´t always include tears. In this vid, on "sleep in peace tonight" I could have used someone sleeping, I didn`t. Instead I used scenes which, in my weird way of thinking, made sense on that line WITHOUT using someone sleeping.

All of this is the reason why I did this vid the way I did it at the end, the reason why I used these scenes.

But be sure, I had a LOT of fun doing this vid, playing with all the awesome season 1-3 moments made me remember why I fell for SPN the moment I started watching.

Although the show has changed over the years, I still love it the way I did when I started watching (btw, season 1 "Phantom Traveler"`s been my first ever SPN episode, don`t ask my WHY this episode managed to suck me into the SPN world, I have no idea. AND NOOOO, it`s not been THE "Dean`s in bed" scene from PT, back then I missed the first 15 min. of the ep.)

anyway, this is the 2nd vid promt I`ve filled at "spn_rambleon", I have one more video on my *to do* list for the meme

so I guess I can say: see you soon (with another SPN video );D

Until then, I hope you`re able to enjoy this new vid of mine. Most of all crowley_gal, since it`s her promt.


random notes prt.2: looking at my journal, it seems 2011 is a BSG and SPN year for me. (so far) I have 9 vids listed for 2011, 4 are for BSG, 5 for SPN *glares at vid list* ... okayyyyy ... not to mention the fact that 9 vids, is a new low for me at this point of the year *duh*

random notes: ... or as some would say, Raider porn galore, he.

I`ve always wanted to get a vid done for the Raider, simply because it`s one of my favorite BSG character

The song, well, the original title and *my* title, the word "raider", sound kind of familiar, that´s why I ran with it

so, I took both, the song and the Raider clips, and put them together, to create my very own Raider tribute vid, finaly.

THANK YOU goes to [personal profile] aruna7 for cutting the song (the original is looong), and to both, [personal profile] aruna7 and savitarwolf for the cheerleading all along the way *grouphug*

I hope someone will be able to enjoy what I came up with. If so, have fun ;D

vid notes. "we might fall", and sometimes they fell.

random notes: this is a new BSG vid, and a new BSG vidding record for me also. Less than 24h after I`ve started working on this vid, it`s been done.

Ever since I got the song from a friend of mine, I had some ideas because of it, ideas about how I wanted a *possible* vid to look like. While rewatching BSG season 1 I had even more ideas, I guess this is the reason why this vid has been done in almost no time at all.

It`s surposed to be a general ensemble BSG vid, but then I`ve decided to focus on just a few characters, instead of all. This is the first time (while working on a general vid) I`ve excluded each and every Baltar&Six scene.

This vid features scenes from: Helo & Sharon, Boomer, Dee, Adama, some of Kara, Lee (I didn´t plan to use this many Lee scenes, but but but, he has some great moments, especially in season 1&2) and others, but the *others* are not part of of main theme.

While working on it (and after watching some deleted scenes) I had an idea about making a connection between certain scenes, different characters, most of these scenes are located towards the end of the vid. And for once I`ve been able to breath life into these ideas of mine. It`s as I wanted it to be, 100% *happy sigh*

Most of the scenes I`ve used are from season 1 & 2 and the mini.

last: end of *svala`s rambling*

I hope you`re able to enjoy this vid of mine *waves*

Original promt: A vid about Dean's drinking done to "Everybody Hurts"



Vid notes: "You shove it down, and you let it come out in spurts of violence and alcoholism." Dean, 6.14 "Mannequin 3: The Reckoning"



Random notes: This is not a Dean´s drinking drinking game video. This is not meant to explore everything behind Dean`s drinking habbit. This is a video about him drinking (too much), and some of the reasons why.

In 2.11 "Playthings" Dean said to Sam, after Sam got himself drunk: "Dude, what are you thinking? We're working a case."

ever since Dean´s back from hell, he`s doing the same, and more. In "Sam, Interrupted" we`ve been told how much he`s actually drinking.

As soon as I read the promt, I knew I just had to do this video. I went with scenes which are, in my book, some of the most important reasons why Dean`s doing all of this. The main reason, the reason that got it all started, being him, remembering Hell. Add everything that has happend after, and you`ll get Dean drinking like a fish.

I hope I was able to do (Dean and) the promt justice with this video.

Last, I was thinking about cutting the song, because it runs long. The hubby threatened to kick my a** if I dare to cut this song *rofl* so I left it as it is, in all its 4 minutes + glory.

Vid notes:

Welcome to "Supernatural", or, *pyro central*: Where fires burn, angels & demons glow, and ghosts sparkle, aka lots of *fiery* SPN action.


random notes: This is one of the few general & overview vids I`ve done for SPN. Usually SPN is a character focused (vid) show for me, unlike BSG or NCIS, where most of my vids are general & overview (speaking of NCIS, I have a new NCIS video in the making, I hope I get around to finish it asap. And one video for "Justified", and one for Farscape, and ... *thud*)

As soon as I had the idea for this SPN vid, I knew it had to be this version of "Ring of Fire" ... why? because H-BLOCKX RULES! ;D

the "Ring of Fire", that`s the life or our favorite hunter, and angels, aso

Along the way I bagged pretty much everything that includes fire and bright light.

This, or course, means I didn`t use the lyrics literaly, all the time.

And of course this also means: the video is surposed to be F.U.N (and NOT to be taken too serious. I´ve dealed with more than anough SPN angst, it`s time for something else)

I just couldn´t resist while working on this vid. I used some MotW, because the ghosts sparkle just fine. I used angels killing demons, angels killing angels (btw, why`s Dean able to kill Zac? I thought only an angel can kill another angel) because they glow just fine, aso aso aso.

and I used our boys, and everyone else going *pyro*. Because this s***, never gets old *happy sigh*

add some (more or less random, but hey, it looks shiny and made the hubby laugh) action & funny moments to the mix, and you get "Ring of Fire"

(and just for the record: YES, the clips which I`ve used twice, almost in a row, that`s with reason, no accident ;D)

Enjoy !!!

Story Summary: Dean misses Sam like nothing else, but he doesn't know Sam stayed away on purpose, and he sure as hell didn't think that there would be so many lies, truths and blood.


random notes: The vid title is stolen, without any shame, from two of my favorite Farscape episodes ;D

This is more an *inspiered by* vid then anything else, and it for sure isn`t a *real* trailer for the story.

I don`t do trailer vids, I can`t do trailer vids. Not for real anyway. This is an Au vid, Au is not what I`m used to do (seems I`m only getting into AU when it`s BigBang related, since both of my 2010 BigBang vids are AU. Okay, and there was this one time where I actually did a SPN AU vid on my own. But usually, you don`t get an AU vid from this lemming)

So I think it`s save to say: getting this vid done has been a challenge for me. And at the end this is what the BigBang is surposed to be, IMO. A challenge for everyone involved, to do as they don`t do on a regular base.

While reading the story I had certain scenes in mind, scenes I took notes for. Once I was done reading I went searching for matching SPN scenes, scene which would be able to do the trick for me.

At one point I`ve added the color change to one clip, for me it works this way, much better than the regular color anyway.

I hope this vid will make any sense at all, I think it`ll help to read the story. If you read it, I hope you`ll be able to recognize the scenes covered in this video.

Vid notes: Sam Anders focused video, his journey, wrapped up in an action vid.


Random notes:
1st, almost two years ago aruna7@lj and I came up with the idea of a vid battle. Main idea was to use the same song, for the same character.
The major difference is the vid editor, she`s using Sony Vegas. I use Corel`s Videostudio.

It took me two years to get this BSG vid on the way *yikes*. I could never wrap my mind around it, until two weeks ago.

So, this vid is my part of the deal, you can expect to see a vid from aruna7@lj as soon as she gets around to do it (well, I just hope it won`t take another 2 years, for her to finish the vid *rofl*). As soon as she`s done, I add a link to her version of "Nemo"

2nd: This is the third time I`ve used "Nemo". The two videos which I`ve done before, using this song, can be found here:

STARGATE SG-1 "NEMO": Cameron Mitchell ... CLICK

SUPERNATURAL "NEMO": Dean Winchester ... CLICK

(both videos have been done BEFORE I changed the name for my videos. This is why they have a different signature)

add these videos to the challenge of doing "Nemo" for Sam, since I didn`t want to copy what I already had. I`ve tried to make this BSG vid different than the others.

3rd: This is my 5th BSG video, but my first ever BSG character video. So far I`ve only done general & overview. So please, be gentle *blush*


LAST: with this vid I start my *svala`s celebrating her 5th vidding anniversary* month

Plan is to post at least one more vid in June, maybe more. I`m already working on a new SPN vid (I hope I`m able to post the SPN video before I leave for Barcelona on June 10th) and I have some more ideas for other vids also.

THANK YOU to everyone who`s with me since the beginning
THANK YOU to everyone who was of tech & theme help, so I could start vidding in the first place
THANK YOU to everyone who`s watching what I come up with
THANK YOU to everyone who`s able to enjoy what I come up with
THANK YOU to everyone who`s still watching, despite the, at times, weird and crazy ideas I call mine

By now I`ve done more than 100 vids, in 5 years, I still am able to enjoy what I`m doing (although it is a pain in the a** at times, although I`m ready to throw my computer, and vid clips, out of the window at times), I`m still bouncing in my chair, literaly, I`m still screaming and howling, crying and laughing, while scene hunting & cutting a vid.

At times I try to do new, and different, things, but I`m more or less settled in my own style by now. As long as I still like how I do it, I`m not gonna change anything major. And no money in the world, no Sony Vegas, no nothing, would make me leave behind my beloved Videostudio.

But most of all: as long as there`s still one person left who likes what I do, I`m a happy camper!
One person saying "I like" makes everything even more worth it, all the hours, days, sometimes weeks, at times tears and emotional pain, which I put into a video.

THANK YOU ALL, for everything!!!
