I saw this vid in early August. It's an X Men vid which uses source from First Class and X3. I'm pretty sure it's the one which parallels Magneto/X, Jean/Scott, and Rogue/Wolverine, but I'm not sure about Scot, Rogue, and Wolverine, honestly. It is very, very affecting, even if, unlike me, you knew what happened to Professor X in X 3.

Of course, I can't remember the vidder or the song, so I can't find the vid again. PLEASE HELP! What vid am I thinking of?

Does anyone have a copy of sheila's Ronon Lapdance vid? I feel the need to watch it, and I don't have it.

One) International Porning Day for Podfic. Make podfic. Sexually explicit. As many languages as possible. (via [personal profile] rivkat) You always have permission to make fanworks of my fanwork, so if you want to podcast my podfic as written, you may. If you want to translate my fic to another language and podfic that, you may. If you want to write fanfic of my fic in another language, do that, too. I would love a link, but it's not required.

Some) Speaking of podfic of my fic: [livejournal.com profile] bessyboo performed a podfic of Get Next To You, my Fastlane story. Fastlane, man, good times. (*obligatory Fox hatred*)

Lots) Also, that [personal profile] charmax vid everyone was linking around and going on and on and on about how awesome it is? Space Girl actually is pretty awesome. Isn't that always the way?

Poll context:

the Melee (people being able to do remixes without signing up or volunteering for their story to be remixed.) was part of the [community profile] remixduello.

The reason for running [community profile] remixduello in the first place is to have a remix challenge with restraint, where the story you are to remix was picked for you, as an extra special remix challenge. (Also, to let you pick exactly which story got remixed, to say, "I want to see where someone takes that story.") The Melee got rid of both of those aspects of the challenge. I think a little bit of that could be restored if I reorganized it so that people could nominate stories as Melee prompts, but only one per fandom. Would that still be of interest to people?

zvi: Christina Aguilera: Music Critic (music critic)
So…in this season of NaNo and Yuletide, I know that many of my dearest readers are looking for pleasant ways to procrastinate.

Lo, this very night, I have discovered a fabulous way to do it: American Sign Language interpreted songs on youtube.

I have been watching a bazillion ASL interpreted songs on Youtube. Quality is extremely variable, as one should expect in what is, most of the time, a labor (or whim) of love at somebody's desk or somebody's high school foreign language final. However, there are some people doing full on music videos, using all of the fading and layering and special effects that a girl could want.

Some videos! )

[personal profile] livrelibre is soliciting suggestions for Gus/Shawn vids, and I suggested I'll Be There for You/You're All I Need to Get By by Method Man featuring Mary J. Blige. But upon further consideration, the darker (i.e. minor key) tone and slower pace of it makes me think it would be more appropriate for an Alec/Eliot or Alec/Eliot/Parker Leverage vid.

I also watched about a season and a half of Farscape over the past two weeks, and I kind of want a vid to Still Alive, the Portal end credits. What I can't decide is which would be more awesome: one where John and Aeryn have the viewpoint (there are at least four episodes in the first two seasons where one can see Aeryn doing science!) and one ignores the evil subtext of the song; one where Scorpius has the viewpoint and is addressing the crew of Moya in its entirety; or one where all three insane military commanders (Crais, Scorpy, Grayza, for those playing at home) have the viewpoint and are addressing the Scarrans.

What's the going rate for vidders when they get auctioned?

P.S. When trying to figure out which tracks from J.C. Chasez's Schizophrenic would be appropriate for a Shawn/Gus vid (answer: ALL OF THEM), I came across a Sims 2 video for She Got Me Awesomest video, or Most Awesomest Video?
zvi: Enterprise: I like this ship, it's exciting (ST: AOS)
So, Club Vivid, she happened, and people are starting to post their Club Vivid vids on line. This is awaking a desire in me to watch uptempo Star Trek AOS vids. Can you please rec me your favorite uptempo AOS vids? The ones that I have are:
  • Breaking My Own Heart S/U by Seneca (probably my lower limit for what I want in terms of speed)
  • (Can't You) Trip Like I Do Ensemble by Signal to Noise
  • Circus JTK by Diana
  • Closer — K/S by Killa and T. Jonesy. I found it on Triptych Vids, which is password protected.
  • Closer V. 2 K/S by Sparingett (sadly, this one sort of falls apart about a minute from the end because of lack of footage.)
  • Dr. Love Bones/Kirk by Talitha. Very short, due to frustrating lack of Bones footage. Even at 1:20, she's pushing the limits of what she can do, but she's pushing them pretty well.
  • Fly on the Wall K/S by lidi
  • I'm on a boat
    • I'm On A Boat Ensemble by kiki-miserychic
    • I'm On a Boat Ensemble by very-improbable (My favorite of these three)
    • I'm On a Ship Filk/Ensemble by alltimemcfly: This one is based off the filk picspam by sparkly-stuff, and I wish the vidder had let herself be more closely guided by the picspam. This is not as good as it could be, in a very frustrating "almost, but not quite" way.
  • Poker Face Kirk/Spock by Talitha
Also, even though this isn't as fast as what I want, I really recommend Helen's Kirk/Sulu Falling is Like This. There's a bit of "Not enough John Cho" in the first minute or so, but it gets worked out pretty quickly and the last minute is absolutely, breathtakingly gorgeous.

So, vids, people! Downloads or Youtube only: most of the other vidding sites hate my computer. I don't care about the pairing, I just want it to be AOS and have a good enough beat to dance to.

Thank you kindly.
