Thanks for the great feedback. Love your screenname by the way. It is great to know that someone else besides me loves the episode The Ring from S1 of Angel. Trepkos was awesome.
"The Ring" is one of the best "arena" episodes in any of the sci-fis I've seen - and nearly all of them have one! Yeah, Trepkos came good in the end. I have to admit, I would have picked "Hostile 17" as my screename if it had been available, but I'm pretty happy having been Trepkos for nearly 4 years. Cool. Have you made any more vids?
I agree. The Ring is so awesome. I can watch it over and over and never get sick of it. When I listed it on my top ten list of favorite Angel eps, over half the people laughed at me with LOL's.
I have made a lot of BTVS vids. A few Bangel, a lot of Spuffy, a Buffy character study, etc..
Thanks for the awesome feedback. I worked very hard on this video so I am happy to see you enjoyed it so much. It feels great to see that you thought it was well put together. Thanks again!

That was great! I adore constructed reality vids and you did a marvelous job of bringing the new reality to life. Great use of standard clips interspersed with constructed clips. For a moment I even thought I'd forgotten Spike spying on Angel and Buffy in the graveyard. (I've forgotten, right?) Anyway, spectacular use of clips and internal movement. Loved when all the clips started zooming. I'm a whore for effects. Nicely done.
p.s. jossversecinema is another great place to post your vids on LJ, if you aren't already.

I am also happy that you enjoyed the effect of Buffy in the computer monitor. That took me forever to do. It involved a combo of masking and re-sizing.
What editing software are you using? For the last 2 1/2 years or so I have been using Vegas, which I love.

I've been using Vegas 4 for the last year or so and just bought (as in it came this week and was just installed) Vegas 6. With 7 coming out I found a site that was selling the older version for only $99! I bought it really quick. With the vob editing ability I couldn't resist, as I'd been having editable codec issues forever.
Long story short, I adore Vegas as well!
Masking is one of those things I'm still working on learning. Any tuts or tips are always adored. *bg*
Thanks for the great feedback spikendru. I am happy that you enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I don't have any of my vids available for download. Just up on youtube. I am happy that you liked the video so much though. Thanks again!
For purely selfish reasons, you really need a webpage! I usually don't go to YouTube because the quality of the streaming vids generally isn't as good as the downloaded ones, so I have't seen your work before. And if this vid is any indication, I've been missing a lot! I was off-line for six months last year while trying to find a new Internet provider that met my needs after dumping my old one, so I spent a huge amount of time writing and watching my downloaded vids. I would have gone *nutz* if I hadn't had the vids to continually inspire me when the writing lagged. Just a thought.
*channeling the Dru part of spikeNdru: Be in me . . . you are in my thrall . . . you will get a webpage for your excellent vids or I will be very unhappy . . . the pixies said you would, so that's alrght now. Grrrr . . . bad dog!*
I don't see myself getting a site anytime soon. I am crappy with web design and basic computer stuff. It is funny because editing and everything associated with it, always seemed to come naturally to me. But other stuff with computers, baffles the hell out of me... LOL
