vidding since: January 2002
describe yourself in 5 word:cynical - thoughtful - obsessive - ironic - goddess
describe your co judges in 3 words:
Trisha: mysterious… dangerous… devil
Cassi: incredible… enthusiastic… angel
5 things we'll never hear from your mouth:
- 'No I didn't notice the unresolved sexual tension in that scene!'
- 'Put your clothes on, Angel! Wes! Spike!'
- 'Spike ashes should have stayed in that damn hellhole… What is he doing in LA beside annoying the crap out of me?'
- 'Wes is a boring fool! And his affair with Lilah last season was just so sick! I'm glad it ended that way.'
- 'Cordelias storyline is over! I'm looking forward to see one tiny moment of Buffy shine in LA to finally set-up the romantic triangle and I'm so interested in her whereabouts now… Let the two ensouled vampires talk more about her!' (That hurt just to write…)
5 things we'll always hear from your mouth:
- 'More caffeine! More testosterone! More action! More interaction! NOW! Ähm.. Please?'
- 'What do you mean, nudity on broadcast television is illegal? It's a great way to express…'
- 'Flashbacks? The whole unholy family with Dru and Darla? And the boys playing their game? Yay!'
- 'I don't care that the whole ensemble is cruelty and vicious killed of… Dark and angsty smut? Gimme the link…'
- 'I miss Cordy! The real Cordy!' *sigh*
things you'll never wanna see in a Vid again?
- Stolen clips I instantly recognize…
- 4:3 and 16:9! Different formats! Jeez, I can halfway understand it by AtS, but people stick to one format, it's really easy to zoom in 'OmwF'-scenes! Just go to motion and …
- Effects with no other use, than annoying me… You've got a perfect source material and then you smack the after effect 'old movie-style' on top of it? Why? This one works only in a few sequences, in a few videos, try something different to make me nostalgic… Like I don't know, an appealing storyline?
- Senseless romantic scenes cut together without any link to the lyrics or other meaning than bring favourite couple and favourite song together! Did you never wonder, why most unconventional and slash videos work? Because the vidder had to read the subtext in the relationship before he even start to make the video and depends almost totally on the lyrics to make the audience see his/her point…
- I could go on and on here, but I stop now! Important things are said…
things you'll always wanna see in a vid?
- When someone discovered that there're in fact seven seasons of the Jossverse and not only "Afterlife", "OmwF", "Smashed", "Beneath you" and "Chosen" and AtS is more than "I will remember you" and Faith in "5 by 5", "Sanctuary", "Judgement", "Salvage", "Release" and "Orpheus"!
- When someone discovered the importance and possibilities of Speed, Motion, Layers, Transitions, Zoom, … It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy!
- The guts to cut perfect scenes from an episode just because it isn't right to let them play too long and speed 180% just looks hysterical and destroys the mood…
- A plot, a meaning, a twist, an idea that the vidder tries clearly to express!
- Creativity and improvement, vidding is an art form with endless possibilities, find your own style!
who looks best in chains?
Angels wrists are made for metal around them…
Wesley looks hot in ropes, covered in nice scars…
And blood play is reserved for Spike crawling on the floor!
your best quote:
Astarte: 'Should we tell Cassi, that we destroyed the SpikeBot out of boredom and Spikes left over rotate around in our holy-water-whirlpool?'
Trisha: 'Mmh' *pads thoughtful Angels bloody torso what cause a whimper*
Astarte: *hears a moan from the unconscious Wes she leans on* 'Guess, that can wait until her final exams are over…'
