Soooo.....

I fully intended to vid the whole song, equally split between John & Aeryn and Chi & D'Argo. The first minute was laid down in about an hour and I was quite pleased with it. In trying to vid the refrain I realized that there was no where near enough Chi/D'Argo footage to support a balanced vid (see last night's moaning) and I tried chopping out the refrains and laid down clips for the next verse but it looked and sounded like garbage without the padding of the refrains. And since I really didn't want to make a J/A vid with a dash of C/D, I decided to cut my losses; but I thought someone might enjoy seeing this first minute :)

Music: Telephone by Lady Gaga & Beyonce
Time: 1:09

Beautiful! Loved it very much and I hope you will find the way to finish it, because the energy of the song flows very well with your pacing of the clips.

Cutting a song can be a real nightmare, I know, but no one says that you have to manage it *now*: wait for a while, and the inspiration on how to do that and what to use will come to you.

With the brilliant results we expect from you :-)

Well done!

*grin* Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I'll never say never, but at this point I have no plans to finish it because the refrains would have to be entirely J/A, and while C/D could share the verses...the chronological flow would be off. Cutting seems to be off the table, unfortunately, because Beyonce sings the next verse, and the difference in sound is insane (and not in a good way ;) It really needs some padding.

But we'll see. Maybe I'll get good enough to plug in another, shorter instrumental bit or something :)

As they say in my *other* favorite show, "faith manages".
I'm sure you'll find your inspiration :)

That`s a great use of the song (so far at least) *thumbs up*. Like the scenes you`ve picked to go with it. Maybe, one day, you`ll find the missing link, to complete the whole song?

But, at least you`ve been brave enough to share what you have done (I have tons of unfinished vids, which I never shared with anyone). Thank you so much for sharing yours.

btw, got you e-mail, and the songs, eyerything worked just fine.

I`ve used "Trouble" just recently already, for a "Hawaii Five-O" vid, I don`t think I`ll use it again, ever. (I`m in love with my little H5-O vid).
As it seems, your first song choice is mine also. I`ll give it a try. Do you want to have an unfinished draft inbetween, or do you wanna wait for the finished video?

Thank you! I'm happy you liked it! And yes, maybe some day...far, far in the future lol

I have a bunch of other unfinished vids I wouldn't want to share, but this one seemed finished "enough", you know? And I liked it so much it seemed a shame not to. Aeryn blowing shit up totally made me fall in love with her all over again.

No problem, and I shall go look for that vid right now! And that White Collar one.

I've wanted to do a Chi/Rygel vid to Trouble for ages but never get past 45 seconds or so.

I'll wait for the finished video if that works for you :) And if the song turns out to be a no go, I'll think of something else. I know all too well how frustrating it is to think something's going to work only to hit a huge wall.
