Vid: Road rage

[bop_radar]

I'm totally spamming today, since long weekends = fannish productivity! *g*

This vid was my attempt to overcome my phobia of vidding my favourite characters or ships. You'll notice that I still shied away from vidding Lee's perspective... but I'm getting there. I also tried to vid fast, since I'm not keen to repeat the weeks of wallowing in despair that surrounded my last vid. *g* So, nothing serious here... just a light-hearted attempt to stare down my inner vidding demons. Oh, and I only had the mini series and Season 1 to work with, so silly shippiness ensued.

Song: Road rage
Artist: Catatonia
Fandom: Battlestar Galactica
Premise: Apollo gives Starbuck road rage *snerk*
Warnings: spoilers for mini-series and Season 1, mild nudity
Download: direct download (33MB) or streaming at BAM
Feedback: Pretty please! *bats eyelashes* It's unbeta-ed, so there's only me to blame.
Lyrics:
If all you've got to do today is find peace of mind
Come round,
You can take a piece of mine
And if all you've got to do today is hesitate
Come here, you can leave it late with me .
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and I know, it's all over the front page
You give me road rage
Racing through the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
If all you've got to prove today is your innocence,
Calm down, you're as guilty as can be
If all you've got to lose alludes to yesterday
Yesterday's through, now do anything you please.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and I know
It's all over the front page
You give me road rage
Racing through the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
You're losing your mind.
You, you've been racing through the best days
You, you've been racing through the best days.
Space age, road rage, fast lane,
And if all you've got to do today is find peace of mind
Come here, you can take a piece of mine.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and I know,
It's all over the front page,
you give me road rage
Racing through the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
But you and I know
We all live in the space age, coming down with road rage
Racing through the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
It's not over, it's not over, it's not over,
It's not over, it's not over, it's not over,
you and I know
We all live in the space age,
you give me road rage,
Racing to the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
Losing your mind

Physically, I feel like crap, but this made me feel all warm and happy on the inside. :) Awesome work, Boppy! You just impress the hell out of me.

Also, you really make me love Lee/Kara. \o/

Awwww, no!! Are you sick? :-(

I'm delighted you like it. Have you seen the mini-series or any Season 1 yet? They're so damn adorable. *treasures* Before they went all angsty, Lee/Kara were magic!

[kristiinthedark.livejournal.com]

Woe. Yes, quite sick. :( But vids like this make me happy!

And, you know, I STILL haven't watched the mini-series or season 1 yet, which means I lose at fandom, I think. But, I swear, as soon as I have time, I'm so there. :D

Heh, heh, no that just means that a) the impact of my vid is greater because you don't know how much I just riffed off moments in the actual show ;-) and b) you still have that huge pleasure to look forward to! :-D

And it's not like I can talk! Though I'm slowly getting through Season 1 of Due South. I think I'm up to ep 12?

Hee, that's true, the impact is greater! I've noticed that in other vids that I've seen, before I've seen the episodes they actually came from - you get to get to see the vidder's intention, rather than thinking about what *really* happened in such and such ep.

all the way to ep 12? AWESOME! YAY!

Heh heh heh, yeah, you may die when you find out what they're actually arguing about in some of these scenes! ;-) Though they were much with the subtext, so I'd like to think my spin on them isn't tooooo much of a stretch. Um.

Yes! I will post about Due South at some stage but I'm mostly just trying to plow ahead so I can get to CKR. ;-)
