Thank yous and reminder

[bop_radar]

I am all glowy from the feedback on Middleman: I had honestly abandonned all hope of provoking such amazing, thinky, insightful responses from people. You guys ROCK! BSG fans (and Lee fans in particular) FTW! \o/ I'm so chuffed it resonated with some of you--I knew it wouldn't be a vid for everyone but that it meant a lot to some of you means a lot to me (if that makes sense!).

And Smallville fans: in terms of number of prompts, you guys are beating all other fandoms so far in my character study challenge. I'm very amused. Dying fandom? Obviously not! ;)

It's fascinating seeing the prompts come in and I've been delighted to see them from so many varied fandoms/sources. There's a good range of BSG, BtVS, AtS, FNL, DW and DS prompts and a very wide range of prompts overall. But we can still have MORE! So this is a little reminder that I'm accepting prompts until midnight Saturday. That's my time so it's 2pm London time and 9am NY time. And while I probably won't mind if some come in 'overnight' my time, I will definitely be cutting them off Sunday morning so that I can collate them all and get the big list posted. :) So if you've been meaning to leave prompts and haven't, make sure you remember before Saturday! Especially if you have something specific in mind that you want to do. And remind your friends as well. :) The more the merrier!

Just wanted to let you know I fully intend to watch your vid. But with the feeling under the weather, I didn't want to be half conscious while watching. ;)

Ohhh, I wouldn't watch it when poorly--it's very depressing! (But thank you!) I hope you get better soon.

Hi Bop,

Sadly I have not been able to open your middleman vid. I have tried both ways to no avail. I have looked at your feedback and it sounds wonderful. I guess I just wanted you to know that I tried (and will keep trying) and that your vid sounds as though it was great.

Looking forwards to participating in your challenge.

Oh dear! I'm so sorry it's proved difficult for you. Do you have VLC media player? It plays most formats of vids so if you are having trouble with the .avi file it's a good one to try. Or is it that you can't download from sendspace? I could put it up somewhere else?

For imeem, you need to have Flash 9 installed and I personally find it really pesky too (it keeps crashing my browser!)

[smact46.livejournal.com]

That could be it. Idon't have flash 9. Lots of problems. Are you able to post to you tube? I can get that? Is it hard for you to do that?

I can! And here it is:

Hi Boppy,

Thanks so much for posting your vid on youtube.

I am no vidder, but I really loved the way that you used the rhythm of the music so that it paced seamlessly with the clips that you chose. It's a great song.

You reminded me with this clip, just how much Lee has been in the *middle* of pretty much every ugly thing since he landed on the Galactica for the decommissioning ceremony in the mini, almost without a break. The clips that you used demonstrated his sensitivity - Jamie is a very gifted actor - and reminded me that Lee doesn't get to be happy very often does he?

I too, really liked your reflection on Lee and his attachment to some of the objects and people that have come his way - remembering that this is a man who arrived with nothing and has lost so much.

Thank you for your kind feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the vid. I agree with you that Lee has been under unrelenting pressure since the mini on. Lee isn't allowed a break very often at all, no.
