Hello all,
One of the first things I noticed this site lacked was video media about Firefly/Serenity. I noticed the one music video but like everyone else (at least I believe), I wanted more!

I have some expertise with making music videos so I was going to take a shot at it. I won't have everything I need until spring break (beginning of march sometime), so now is a good time for me to collect ideas. I wanted to make at least one movie for every character/and or relationship. I have a few ideas of my own but thousands of heads work better than one, so I thought I'd take recomendations for songs for characters or relationships (ex Simon+Kaylee).

This could also be a good conversion tool, as I would also like to make a Firefly trailer. Well here it goes. Any requests or good ideas, please post here.

Lucky
The head of state has called for me by name
but I don't have time for him.
It's gonna be a glorious day!
I feel my luck could change.

Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
we are standing on the edge.
We are standing on the edge.

Yay! You are just the browncoat I've been looking for! I have ideas, and I was hoping someone would steal them because I don't have the software to make them reality myself. I had a thread on that a couple months ago, but no real results. Here's what was gleaned from it though in the way of ideas:

Exerpt from my original post:
Also, for those who own music video making software, I would love it if you would take my ideas for Firefly vids--I have them all mapped out in my head but no time or software. I would love to email my ideas to anyone interested, and then you can run with them yourself.

The songs (all available on iTunes, I checked):
"If everyone cared" on the new Nickleback CD--even mentions fireflys!
"Firefly" by Sister Hazel (my favorite band) on their CD "Lift"
"I hope you dance" by LeAnn Womack
"Ready for your love" by Chantal Kreviazuk--a Kaylee and Simon song, perhaps add Mrs. Reynolds for humor?

Lastly, "A clock Stopped". It's a lovely waltz piece, I think by KGB? I don't know if that's a real group, it's the info I have. The song is very much in the Firefly soundtrack line, reminds me of the end song in "the Message". I got the song from a friend, so I'm afraid I'm not sure where to tell you to get it. Ask if you're interested and we can work on finding it.


From Grayfury:
Greta Gaines has a killer song called Firefly
And the band Delerium has a song called Euphoria (Firefly) as well as one called Serenity


From Milford:
If you listen to the entire Joshua Tree album from U2, the whole thing reminds me of FF/S. Especially take note of Trip Through Your Wires (Mal and Inara), Running to Stand Still (Simon and River), Exit & I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (Mal again, also Book), and In God's Country (which makes me thing about Serenity herself). Of course Where the Streets Have No Name could have been the theme song for the whole series.

I think it's Jerry Douglas's great Dobro playing that puts me in a FF state of mind.

From Doncoat:
As does the band she has produced betimes, Nickel Creek.

From PDCharles:
Kings of Leon - "Molly's chambers" (from VW commercial fame) - reminds me of Inara's shuttle

They have a song called "Dusty" that starts with a riff that always reminds me of the 'verse

From tealcandtrip:
Kelly Clarkson's "because of you" came on and all the sudden, all I could think of was Firefly.
I don't know why, but I think that would make a great humor vid. You know, Mal can't love Inara because he got burned by YoSafBrig and Nandi.
Seriously, every time I hear that song now, I laugh histerically cause Firefly's the only thing I can think of.


I would love to help with ideas (even if you don't use 'em, I won't be hurt) so please keep in touch.

Cheers, Amylisai

Wow I'm glad that there are so many ideas. I have a legal version of limewire so I'll start going through those songs and putting things together. More suggestions are welcome. I'd rather have to file through a ton of good songs than have a few to pick from so whatever you guys think. If you want to e-mail me, my e-mail is Lordofthieves19@hotmail.com and please leave a subject along the lines of Firefly music, or something along those lines so I know it isn't junk or bulk mail. Thanks for the ideas, and it looks like I'll have a video complete by the end of spring break!

As I'm pumping myself up for the Coldplay concert this Sunday, I was listening to their new ablum this week. "Fix You" should have been Simon and River's theme song in the film. Then again, the more I listned to it the more I realized it would be great for the Mal/Serenity bit at the end of the BDM.

If you have some good ideas as to the actual process let me know, I have some ideas but no know how.

Remember, that but for one trifling exception, the entire universe is made up of others.- Oliver Wendall Holmes
