Again, fantastic! Well done.

Date: 2006-05-24 04:02 am (UTC)I went to your web site and checked out some of your other videos, and I have to say, you're one of the best vid-makers I've seen. You have a particular gift for perfectly matching the video clips to the music.
Do you, by any chance, take suggestions/requests at all?
no subject
Date: 2006-05-24 08:51 am (UTC)That's a really nice thing for you to say! Thank you!
As for suggestions/requests - I don't usually because I have so much to do already but it has been known for me to do the odd one. So if you have something particular in mind try me. I won't promise anything though.
Fair enough...
Date: 2006-05-24 09:28 am (UTC)It's a Buffy the Vampire Slayer video about the town of Sunnydale itself, set to the song Wicked Little Town from Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
I lack the talent (and the software) to do it myself, but in the right hands, I think it could be a really great video.
(If you're not familiar with the song, I'd be happy to send it to you, so you can give it a listen and see what you think)
Re: Fair enough...
Date: 2006-05-24 09:40 am (UTC)I'll get back to you if I decide to put it on my to do list. If I do agree to make the vid it will probably be a while before I get to it because I have another two vids that I need to finish before starting a new project.

Here's the song and the lyrics:
Wicked Little Town (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=44BC5C002D3F8183) (via YouSendIt)
You know, the sun is in your eyes
And hurricanes and rains
and black and cloudy skies.
You're running up and down that hill.
You turn it on and off at will.
There's nothing here to thrill
or bring you down.
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
through the dark turns and noise
of this wicked little town.
Oh Lady Luck has led you here
and they're so twisted up
they'll twist you up, I fear.
the pious, hateful and devout,
you're turning tricks til you're turned out,
the wind so cold it burns,
you're burning out and blowing round.
And if you've got no other choice
you know you can follow my voice
through the dark turns and noise
of this wicked little town.
The fates are vicious and they're cruel.
You learn too late you've used two wishes
like a fool
and then you're someone you are not,
and Junction City ain't the spot,
remember Mrs. Lot
and when she turned around.
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
through the dark turns and noise
of this wicked little town.

Date: 2006-05-24 05:07 pm (UTC)To me it seemed to reflect Sunnydale as almost a 'character' in the series, emphasizing the various things the town (and the other characters) went through because of the hellmouth...
Then again, maybe I'm just reading between the lines too much. :)
Anyway, thanks again, and please let me know if you were to decide to do it.
Either way, I look forward to seeing your next videos!

Date: 2006-05-23 07:46 pm (UTC)I have rambled some FB over at Reverie, but just wanted to let you know here how much I adore this vid, perfect music, glistening coins and the essence of the quirky, fantastic show all neatly condensed into your superb vid. I so need to watch the last few episodes I missed.
Thanks, think I am going to rec this to some other WF fans ....

Date: 2006-05-24 10:20 am (UTC)It's a shame that such a great show has been cancelled. I did adore it. Poor timeslot and whatnot.
Anyway, thanks for that. Really enjoyable to watch.

Date: 2006-05-28 12:30 pm (UTC)The slightly ethnic sound in the track made the clip choice easier at 1:36 but the intercutting with the lamp was a late addition. I think it works quite well. I'm glad you enjoyed the vid.
