What a treat for all vid fans out there!

For those of you who don't know, Festivids is community for a fannish vid exchange but only for rare fandoms. And what an amazing list of fandoms it is!

I got a gorgeous Abyss vid and can't tell you how much excited I am right now *claps hands*

You can see it HERE

It's one of my favourite SF movies ever and my gift vidder did an amazing job with it. Love that music and I'm sure going to check some other Michael W. Smith's themes/songs.

Also, I'm so relieved and happy that my recipient liked my gift :)

Going back to FESTIVIDS
MASTER LIST
to watch other vids ;)

MAJOR EDIT!!!

I GOT NOT ONE, BUT TWO VIDS!!!

Yesterday LJ crashed for me and all I got to see is my The Abyss vid and not more than 10 other. Imagine my surprise today when I found another vid for me!
It's a Dark Angel vid and you can see it HERE.

It's awesome and funny and pure joy to watch (and if you are a fan of Jessica Alba you'll love it even more :)).
I love that show but never got to rewatch it properly since all I have is some old 4:3 copy. It's another one of those shows that ended too soon, only after two seasons, but it is still a great one. I'm glad I suggested it and got a gorgeous vid, but even more because 2 other people made vids about it ;)

One more thing - not only I'm happy now but my hubby is too :) (one more reason why I requested it). He's a big fan of Jessika Alba too ;) And who would blame him...lol...she's too cute and sexy.

I have a paid account now! :D

Thank you again [info]mizramanips for sending me upgrade holiday coupon *hugs*

Since I'm so irresponsible and lazy I had to wait for the last minute to finish my [info]festivids assignment and I haven't had the time to explore all the new possibilities of paid account, but that vid is sent and I can't wait to try everything.

- Now, how is it possible that I can finish an impossibly difficult assignment (graphics) for my Secret Santa in just a few hours and I can't even imagine a new header for myself, or a new icons or anything like that.
Anyway, since I'm doing so well I'll just continue making graphics for no reason at all :)

Muses work in mysterious ways...

- I watched 2012 yesterday (finally). A better copy was worth waiting since I wasn't going to watch it at the theatre - it's 2 and a half hours long!!!
It was a pleasant surprise - much, much better than any other disaster movie so far! so it goes to my list of fav movies right away.

It's Twilight but completely different from my previous rec.
This fanvid is absolutely hilarious! - It's set to the music from The Muppet Show and has added dialogues like in a comic book. Should I say anything else :)

If you are still laughing after watching this one please let the author know that.

Here is where you can do that and read author's notes: Sparkle Time made by talented [info]e_transitions

Today I received my assignment email and..OMG...I'm so excited :D I pretty much had each vid I offered mapped out in my mind so I was prepared for anything, but to actually get one of the fandoms you really, really hoped for is just awesome! I can't wait to start as soon as I finish this post.

For those who have no idea what [info]festivids is let me explain in few words. It's very similar to Secret Santa but in this case members are vidders and presents are vids we'll be making for each other. But not just any kind vids. They must be from a list of rare vided fandoms that we all nominated.

I offered 7 and requested 8 fandoms. I can't say what my offers are but I can try to help my gift vidder by giving him/her some additional details about what I generally like or dislike.
So...here it goes :D

Dear Festividder )

I missed a lot of great vids in the past few months! - YT subscriptions, vidding comm, bsgrec comm, various awards sites...and I haven't even covered a half of it! At least I managed to keep up with vids my flist creates :)
I was planning to do all that eventually but what got me started is that CJA Awards posted Finalists of Round 3 so I started from there.
For now, I'll just rec few of my favourites from there and one I meant to rec a long time ago.
And I'll keep my list short ...really...there are only 7 of them :)

Legend of the Seeker
X-Men trilogy
Wanted
BSG x2
Trick 'r Treat
True Blood

You know how there are a few things on your computer that never stops to annoy you but you have never really taken the time to find a solution.
For me one of those things were taskbar buttons (I still use XP) that you can't rearrange.
Well, today I found a simple (and free!) little program - Taskbar Shuffle - and now I can simply drag and drop them where I want :) That helps me a lot since I usually have at least 5 programs opened, at work even more, and I like them lined up in the same order (obsessive much...me...noooo!...lol).
If anyone else is interested here is the address Taskbar Shuffle

But not v from True Blood - the new show - V. I had no idea it's a remake of an older show but so was BSG :D
Anyway, just seeing a few familiar places in a sf show was enough to make me happy. And all of them - Alan Tudyk, Elizabeth Mitchell and Morena Baccarin were brilliant and so was the pilot. I have high hopes for this show but we'll see.
If too many sf geeks like me like it the show probably won't last more than one season...lol

I joined [info]twelvecolonies AND [info]whedonland thanks to [info]mfirefly10 :D

I got Team Galactica [info]teamgalactica and Team Dollhouse [info]theactives just as I asked (you can name 2 or 3 teams as your choices and then you are assigned to one of them).

Now, how long am I going to be able to keep up with both comms still remains to be seen... There are so many challenges and games and I'm afraid I won't skip any of them...lol
At least I finally opened Photoshop again... It has been some time since I made anything but the good news is that I haven't forgotten how to use it :)

Time to catch up with LJ :) ...unfortunately I can only go back to September 22 :( (and hope I didn't miss much).

Before I start that I have one new vid (Moonlight) that I made and uploaded on YT and other streaming places back on Sept.27 but never had the time to do it here too.

The other is one of my older vids (BSG - Helo fanvid - Map of the Problematique by Muse - Now Deep Dish - Flashdance mix..and Athena vid), made in October 2007, which was down for a long time (copyright problems). I thought it was time to decide what to do with it so I swapped the audio. It's old and 4:3 really not worth the trouble of disputing that copyright claim. The result is...well, it's worth watching...lol

Can this show be any more awesome than it already is?! - YES IT CAN!

What an explosive beginning of the new season...there was action, humor, drama...everything, and the beginning....I'm not embarrassed at all to admit that I was jumping around to AC/DC - Thunderstruck :D

And morethanbrothers.net...samlicker81...LOL!...them messing with slash fans never stops to amuse me.

I started shipping another human&vampire couple...Mick & Beth from Moonlight..., yet another show that got cancelled. I seem to have a thing for lost causes...lol

That made me think about all the shows/fandoms I care about and I couldn't even remember them all at once so I decided to make a list...lol

To be honest, BSG was (and still is) my only real fandom, the one I was really invested in, at times more than I should, and sometimes not as much as I wanted to. Now that I got so obsessed with vidding I think "vidding is my fandom". I saw that line in one icon and now I realised how much of that is true in my case, at least for now. I wish i have more time for that too but that's a separate story. I think I'm still suffering from fandom (BSG) withdrawal syndrome and I can't see myself invested in any other fandom like that. Twilight fandom is so much fun and I love it but everything is known there, no mystery, no suspense to what will happen next. I met some wonderful people there :D and that makes me really happy. Lost and Supernatural I like the most but I never had the time for those fandoms nor I ever felt sucked in like with BSG. Actually I think I don't think I'll ever have time for more than one or two fandoms at the time (and there will never be a show as good as BSG...*sigh*).

THE list )

This has been one really good week.
I finished one vid, I won two :D awards in a Twilight vidding contest (I'll post about it later when the awards are finished), AND...most importantly, I started working on solving one major problem in RL.
And that last thing feels so good even though there is no guarantee that everything will turn out as I would like to. Just dealing with the problem is making me hyper happy!

ETA: I got my gorgeous awards :D
