Oh, Tzegha... once again you've done it.

Moved me to tears, made my heart soar with Serenity, made my heart ache for Mal and made me smile when he does.

Thank you for this.

You are a consummate artist.

a thousand times thank you.

My bad day (topped with a trip to the dentist) just got exponentially better.

Also, I should note that this never would have gotten started, let alone finished without the encouragement and advice of some great Browncoats, and I am deeply grateful for their help.

thank you so much.

I was a little trepidatious about the song choice in regards to how palatable it might be. I love it, and amazingly still love it after having listened to it a bajillion times during the editing process :P

You were busy trying to get yourself lit on fire. It happens.

That's some pretty fancy editing you did there. And, you did one of the things I think is sorely missing from most fanvids: integrated the dialogue. Very nice work.

DREAMSOFTHESPIDER

thanks ever so!

I don't think I've done a single vid that didn't have integrated dialogue. I don't know if it was ever something I consciously decided to do from the moment I'd decided to start vidding several years ago, but there are moments, even in the vids where there are lyrics, even if not originally planned, spoke to me of a need for dialogue.

I think, though, that this might be the first vid where I relied heavily on the context of the scenes within the show, whereas before I would strive for the opposite: to use only what was conveyed visually out of context of the show (did that make sense?).

But this time, the broadwave, Mal's wordless "I am" as he realizes and admits that he's willing to die for his belief, Book's wordless "Belief" as he tells Mal it's the only way he's going to get through his situation, etc... some of that meaning is lost without the context of the movie itself.

blah blah blah...

thanks again!

Hey, hon? There's something up with the website... it's just a list of files on a white page - no pictures or anything.

yeah, there's that, it's quite embarrasing! I'm hoping this summer I'll have time to sit down and actually make it a proper website (with pictures and everything!), but for now it's just the basic deal. Everything works, but it's just not pretty.

Just click on the Fanvids file/link and that's where all the Firefly/Serenity vids are. Right-click and Save-as.

Awww! I'm sorry! LOL. I thought maybe it was partially down or something. I'm sure it'll be fantastic when it's done. BTW, are they all firefly/serenity vids? Or just a few in particular?

Cheers!

all the vids are FF/S. For a more internety experience, there is also my LJ which has descriptions of the vids (so you know what the heck it is you're clicking!) and some rambling thoughts on the editing/creative process: http://tzegha.livejournal.com/

Enjoy!

No, no.. I LOVE it when you talk about why you did what you did. You are truly masterful at this.

I re-upped this thread to say that and to tell everyone go check out Tzegha's LJ, you're gonna be glad you did for the insight into her ideas and execution.

I also re-upped it cuz I wanted to tell you ( since I'm an unabashed fangirl of yours! ) that when my comp went down and I got a new one.. I didn't put my office stuff on it first... I downloaded all your vids, thus my new computer felt like "home".
Just wanted you to know that.

Sometimes (most of the time!) I feel like I'm talking to myself, and am not the one to go on and on when no one cares to hear --read: lack of response one way or another, or monosyllabic, which doesn't lend itself making me gush like the geek I am. It doesn't feel like an invitation/request for more information or discussion (which I'd love to do!).

But for my number one flan, here's this: I had forever intended to use River floating into Mal's arms on "time threw a prayer to me", because it worked visually, and it was because of River's presence on Serenity that changed the course of Mal's life and shook him out of the sleep he'd settled into. Forced him on the path to becoming greater than he'd been of late. And originally there was going to be more River content in the vid, but the theme started to get a little too dense (and therefore not enough time spent on all the other threads weaving throughout)

At the suggestion of a wonderful beta who's been with me since (almost?) the beginning of my vidding days suggested that using a clip of Kaylee, someone who represented hope and unconditional love, should be used instead. And so I did, and it worked (I used the clip where she kisses him and tells him "I love my Captain"), but even after sitting on that for several renderings and getting more familiar with it, I ultimately switched back to River.

Because I secretly hate Kaylee. She stole Simon from me

I still owe my beta a version with the Kaylee :P

you sure know how to make a girl feel good!

One of these days, I'm going to find the perfect song to make a Simon/Inara vid. Maybe by the time I do, there'll be more Firefly/Serenity to work with *adjusts rose-coloured glasses*

But perhaps in the meantime I'll mull some more on doing a Simon-vid to Marc Cohn's "Medicine Man". Simon needs some vid-love. Or maybe I'll eventually get back to the first idea I ever had of a Mal/Inara vid to Portishead's "Roads"... Not enough time!

Thanks again, FollowMal, for all the love and support, I truly truly appreciate it.

I hate it when I can't completely enjoy a perfectly editied and composed vid because of a personal difference in song-taste. Grrr.

I also wonder if people are throwing my own vids up on YT without seeking permission. There's something hinky in that...
