We're talking Mal and Wash. And we're talking Foo Fighters. Hope you like it.

That's so shiny! Good job. Such an upbeat, feel-good video you've put together there. And if nothing else, that Wash playback "Aaaah!" at 2:03 deserves an Emmy!

That was great Rel!

*joins in dancing*

Even if I only saw half of it because stupid computer at home freaked out.

I'll watch it in its entirety tomorrow at work. And then I'll want to dance again.

Oh my - one of the best FF vids I've seen. And I'm even too old for the Foo Fighters. But my daughter is gonna love this.

p.s. One of these days I'm going to try the fanvid thing - and I want Mal in John Mellencamp's "Authority Song" {g} But my fannish kid says I should use that one for House.

I loved it! Its very fun and feel-good. I loved the shots of Serenity flying through that kind of canyon in "The Message" the music just suited that part so well.

And I loved the bit where Serenity rose over that cliff at the beginning of "The Train Job", it just fit the line so well "Looking to the sky to save me...".

Excellent job, Rel.

Finally got to see the whole thing. Love it.
I think my favourite bit though, is Niska at the beginning. He looks like he's blowing a kiss. It's great.

Do more!!

Oh that was beautiful,
and I hope after the BDM comes out you'll post it again,
I felt that the ship is a major character
(not to be spoilery...)
and I think we'll all want to see this on October 1st and discuss it.

thanks

You might need new drivers or codecs or some such. What computer type/operating system combo do you use?

I can watch most vids. I think it has to do with you. Or more precisely your host. Is there a bandwidth limit or something?

Safari...OSX...and i have latest windows media player...as I just watched the session 22.

Probably just MS being slow to update their codecs on MAC.

If you are still having trouble seeing it, someone could convert it to MPG or something similar for you. I'm about to leave work, but if someone hasn't posted a converted version by the time I get home tonight, I'll do it for you and send you a link.

This should do it if someone with Windows wants to run a conversion in the meantime... I gotta run...

Some of them were arranged... others, like the first, where the zooooom of the hard burn kinda matched the music, happened completely by accident!

I'd post an MPG version but at ~40 meg I don't have the space myself.

Great job. I can't wait to see more of these music videos. I may try my hand at one sometime. Is there a big repository of links to Firefly music vids?

I discovered Firefly by accident when I did a search on the movie after seeing that incredible Serenity trailer. Such depth to this show!

I converted your vid to an XVID AVI for the people that are having trouble seeing it in WMV.

The file (~9MB) is here: (some quality loss)
http://tek4life.com/learn_to_fly.avi

XVID Codec Here: (MAC and Windows)
http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/

I have limited bandwidth, but I think I can handle the demand... ::gulp:: But uhm... please only download if you are having trouble seeing the original WMV file.

I used this program to convert it:
(freeware version)

Might want to give these guys a look. They average out to about $5 a month, and each year after, they drop the price to around $45 or so:

http://www.icdsoft.com

I use them, and transfer speeds, performance, etc are great.

I don't work for them or anything, just passing on cheap web host info.

They give you 7 gig a month in transfer... not sure if that would be enough or not. There are a LOT of Firefly fans!
