Notes: Wow I'm not even sure where to start with this vid, other than one day cards_slash mentioned she made a comm honoring Kirk's sheer awesome ( link to pimp post) and I was right on the edge of vidding TOS and well the stars aligned. You will notice however that there is very little Bones and Spock to speak of in this vid, not that I don't love them but general observation has been that around fandom that Spock can do no wrong and Bones is just pure win, all true but the comm is about the characters that tend to be written or portrayed a little bit less than their awesome selves (i.e. Kirk is a dumb playboy) or just characters that need more exposure.
In technical terms about the vid I had a lot of fun playing, I rather enjoy how the more I vid the better I get (shocking ain't it?) oh and also first try at lip-syncing, it's not perfect but it's fun. :) I wasn't exactly happy having to find a medium between the full frame of TOS and the extreme wide of Reboot but it works for what it is. Also I've been singing Respect for like the last two weeks. *humms*
JOIN THE COMM, LOVE THE COMM. LOVE KIRK AND SCOTTY AND UHURA AND EVERYONE! \o/
