Loss, recovery and longing in vidding
I recently discovered that I'd lost my Kara/Leoben vid in the harddrive crash. I was surprised how bereft I felt to think it might be gone for good. I think because it's the first creative work I've ever been proud of. Anyway, I got it back from a friend today and feel much more complete now. *breathes contentedly* It's here if anyone wants it (warning: it's the large 37MB version).
Today I had that thing happen where a random song you've never paid that much attention to comes on the radio/your iPod and you suddenly start listening to it in a whole new way, because it connects instinctively with a show in your mind and this entire vid plays out in your mind and before you know it you are listening to the track over and over and dancing and singing along and visualising it all and generally going completely batshit.
And then you come to your senses and add it as no.50 on the list of 'vids I will probably never make'. *headdesk* Still, here's to bringing your internal visions come to life! Which actually is not at ALL what happened with my Kara/Leoben vid--I swear on my puppy's life that I never knew I had that in my head until it just came out, there in the vid.

lol, guilty of doing that!! I have been listening non stop to 2 songs I love for a new Kara/leoben vid, but I have not yet started, but in my head, it's awesome!
I downloaded your vid, neat editing and story telling!! saved it for the moments to come when I'll need a fix. Bound to happen over the next 8 months!

I'm glad you enjoyed the vid. It was my very first, so I see the clunkiness now, but I'm still fond of it. And if it fills a little of the ENORMOUS VOID of the BSG hiatus, then that is very good.

Ok, downloading it AGAIN! I won't lose it this time, either. *crosses fingers*
