Because the Night (large)
Song: Because the Night (edited)
Artist: Cascada
Category: Lord King Bad Vid
Content: Strobing cuts, p.o.v shift, violence directed at a woman (not the focus of the vid). Not really safe for work, but I suppose with headphones it will pass inspection. Spoilers.

Characters/Pairings: Mashiba Ayane, Yukawa Manabu, Kishitani Misa, Mashiba Yoshiyuki
Concept: What can I tell you, my brother, my killer?
Notes: Spoilers for Salvation of a Saint. You have been warned. This is what I did on my second summer vacation. Turn your volume up, not because the music is soft, but because there are sounds on the track that can be missed if the volume is low, and they are important to the mood of the vid.

Info: Large -- 1280x720, 17.8 MB, unzipped.
Notes: I used additional source from Helter Skelter, which is a gorgeous and thought-provoking film, but also graphic and disturbing. I also used a gunshot sound from Supernatural. This is a video fill for the prompt of "[invincible, unrivaled]" on my 30Kisses table. One day I'll find the correct written approach for this AU, but for now, this will do.

Song: Crooked Teeth
Artist: Death Cab for Cutie
Category: General, Episodic
Fandom: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Concept: Kyon's not looking for symbols, but they're there.
Notes: This was a gut reaction to "Endless Eight". Since, of course, the best thing to do with something that (seemingly) won't end is vid it with no resolution. Although, there is something to be said for having multiple "takes" to choose from. I am also reliably informed that this vid has shippy tones to it, but it's more gen to me.

Artist: VAST
Category: Romance
Fandom: Persuasion
Concept: Recontextualizing the story.
Notes: I wanted to tell the story of Frederick Wentworth's courtship of Anne Elliot, but without ignoring the events preceding the book.

Ordinary
Artist: Train
Category: Angst/Romance
Fandom: Itazura na Kiss (Japanese drama)

Alternate vid title: Misconceptions II
Category: Angst, Romance
Fandom: Pride and Prejudice (2005)
Concept: The finality Mr. Darcy must have felt before his second chance.
Notes: A companion piece to "Duvet," but without the happy ending. Completely made with Window Movie Maker, due to Ulead's software having issues with my codec. Only the first few seconds have been edited from the song.

Duvet (Acoustic Version) (edited)
Artist: boa
Alternate vid title: Misconceptions I
Category: Angst, Romance
Fandom: Pride and Prejudice (2005)
Concept: Retells the romance, with focus on Lizzy's perception of Mr. Darcy.
Notes: A companion piece to "She's Out of My Life." Has a similar structure to that video, but continues with an 'epilogue' that gives the couple a happy ending. Same codec issues, same software. Has fiddly bits of layering that would have been better done in Ulead. The song has been edited down from a little over five minutes to a little over four. Have fun trying to find the splices.
Info: 6.87MB, zipped. 7.04MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

My Invitation (original) (remaster)

Uses clips from: Broken Bow, The Andorian Incident, Silent Enemy, Sleeping Dogs, Vox Sola, Desert Crossing, Shockwave Part II, A Night in Sickbay, Marauders, Exile, Stratagem, and E2.

Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Concept: "And though you're invisible/I'll trust the unseen."
Notes: I heard this song and thought it would be wonderful as a music video. I just didn't know for what. 'What' clicked in a long while later. Made at my sister's prodding. She didn't have to prod hard. More experimentation with Windows Movie Maker's transitions.

Category: Drama, Angst, Frodo and Sam friendship
Fandom: Lord of the Rings
Concept: The sacrifices they make and how they hold on to each other through it all.
Notes: Experimented with Windows Movie Maker's transitions, meaning I used more than just fade.
Info: 6.39MB, zipped. 6.57MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

The Two Trees (edited)
Artist: Loreena McKennitt
Category: Drama, Romance, Angst
Fandom: Lord of the Rings
Concept: "Beloved, gaze in thine own heart."
Notes: I lopped off "Ce He Mise Le Ulaingt?". Somewhat experimental in its metaphorical rendering.
Info: 12.9MB, zipped. 13.2MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Breakdown
Artist: Tom Petty
Category: Romance, Angst, Logan/Marie
Fandom: X-Men
Concept: "It's all right if you love me, it's all right if you don't."
Notes: First film. A mediocre effort, I think. Judge for yourself, if you like
Info: 4.57MB, zipped. 4.70MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Extraordinary
Artist: Liz Phair
Category: Romance, Humor
Fandom: Spider-Man (movie)
Concept: Peter Parker (average everyday sane psycho) has a crush on Mary Jane Watson (supergoddess).
Notes: Take the vid as slightly tongue-in-cheek; it's definitely on the opposite end of the spectrum from "Remember When it Rained." I had the first draft for this finished before I saw the second movie, but various technical difficulties kept it from being completed before now.
Info: 7.52MB, zipped. 7.69MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Ready For the Storm (edited)
Artist: Rich Mullins
Category: Angst
Fandom: Star Trek: Enterprise
Concept: The Xindi story arc, with a heavy dose of irony.
Notes: The different pov's are intended. Resolution is 428X240. Spoils these episodes: The Expanse, Exile, Azati Prime, Damage, The Forgotten, The Council, Countdown, and Zero Hour.
Info: 6.45MB, zipped. 6.61MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Pax Deorum
Artist: Enya
Category: Drama
Fandom: Big O
Concept: Plays on the role of Roger as peacemaker and god.
Notes: First of three Big O videos. Edited completely in Ulead VideoStudio 6. First anime music video and first time lip-syncing. The sound is rather soft.
Info: 7.38MB, zipped. 7.58MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

The Promise (edited)
Artist: Secret Garden
Category: Romance, Roger/Dorothy
Fandom: Big O
Concept: Dorothy plays the piano and Roger contemplates.
Notes: Second of three Big O videos. Edited completely in Ulead VideoStudio 6. More of a vidlet than a full-fledged video.
Info: 2.72MB, zipped. 2.81MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Hard to Handle (edited)
Artist: Black Crowes
Category: Humor
Fandom: Big O
Concept: Beck loves to cause mischief.
Notes: Third Big O video. When the inspiration for this first struck I thought it would make a good Roger video, but after the second or third listen to the song, it seemed more in character for Beck. The thing that tickles me the most about this one is that I managed to work in the reason for Beck's afro. Second time lip-syncing! It works much better this time, I think. Edited completely in Ulead VideoStudio 6.
Info: 3.70MB, zipped. 3.79MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Remember When it Rained
Artist: Josh Groban
Category: Angst
Fandom: Spider-Man (movie)
Concept: The metaphor, more than anything else.
Notes: This, oddly enough, gained multiple layers of meaning as I proceeded. It's a contemplation on loss, on broken bonds, on seeing oneself as darkness, not light. Of course, that's just what I see in it. You might see something different. For RockNRollZombie, who inspired it more than he probably thinks.
Info: 8.01MB, zipped. 9.71MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video. More info included with the zip.

It's Never Quite What it Seems
Artist: Over the Rhine
Category: Post-ep, "Touched" and "Chosen"
Fandom: Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Concept: "The light that burns too bright/soon burns out..."
Notes: So, I admit it, I'm a sucker for the whole Buffy/Spike dynamic and although you might find this overly rose-colored, it's not too sappy to me. The concept came to me after I heard the spoilers for the end of the series, but before I saw the episodes. Over the Rhine's song was absolutely perfect for the end, so I had to make this. Oh, and as a sidenote--I finally was able to make my watermark look the way I wanted it.
Info: 6.65MB, zipped. 6.97MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.
Removed temporarily, for eventual re-mastering.

She's Got a Way (edited)
Artist: Billy Joel
Category: Romance (Austin/Mickey)
Fandom: Probe
Concept: "You're absolutely phenomenal."
Notes: This is a pretty schmoopy look at Austin James and Michelle Castle's first somewhat rocky, yet mutually admiring, meeting. I know that many people have not seen this show, so I tried to make this as understandable as possible. If you're still lost, try visiting my Probe site: Creatively Maladjusted.
Info: 1.80MB, zipped. 1.90MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Cry (original) (remaster)
Artist: Faith Hill
Category: Angst, Romance
Fandom: The Lone Gunmen
Concept: All he's asking for.
Notes: Inspired by Jainie Starr's Buffy/Spike video, "The Lost Poetry of Tears," Faith Hill's wonderful vocals and my need to see if I could do another Jimmy/Yves video. I am inordinately proud of this one.
Info: 5.72MB, zipped. 6.03MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.

Black Balloon (Acoustic Version) (original) (remaster)
Artist: The Goo Goo Dolls
Category: Angst, Romance
Fandom: The Lone Gunmen
Concept: Yves Harlow and the fall of the Gunmen, through Jimmy Bond's eyes.
Notes: My first Jimmy/Yves video.
Info: 5.54MB, zipped. 5.8MB, unzipped. Windows Media Video.
