Whee! I'm so glad so many peeps got Marble House. :D Thanks for being so supportive of it.

Dude, I had NO IDEA about that post-VVC slump. So it's good that you're aware of it already. You're gonna submit to VVC this year, riiiight? ;)

Oh man. If you start tinkering in AE you're gonna knock me more dead than you already do.
Lol, shu-ups! :P The problem with me and AE is that every time I decide to fiddle with it, I get all frustrated for wasting time and not actually vidding. So that's why I still haven't learned a thing. *headdesk*

Also, you put 2007, I think you meant 2009, y/n? :P
NO! Don't you remember how I posted all these vids back in 2007?! :P (J/k I fixed it nao! Thanks!)

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm, no. LOL. I'd rather not subject myself to that kind of attention... and criticism. And stress. Mostly the stress. xD
Hahaha! Well you know, I tried. :P It is very stressful, but also the most rewarding thing like EVER. VVC rules.

*pats you on the back* I know, I know.
*is comforted* :)

Ah, this reminds me that I'm a very bad feedbacker who enjoyed all your vids and rewatched some at least a dozen times and has never commented on them *hangs head in shame*

Anyway, this is great opportunity to tell you how much I adore your stuff and you always inspire me. (Even if I need like a year per vid *g*)

Aw, don't worry about it. :) I'm just pleased to know that you enjoyed them, even if it is in secret. ;) So thank you!

How curious! At first, when I saw your list, I thought you'd stolen my "vid loop playlist" and posted it! :P
Honestly, I do find myself looping your vids over and over again because 1) THEY'RE FRELLING BRILLIANT and 2) I can hardly get half of what's going in the first viewing anyway (usually, whenever I see something brilliant my brain stops dead and I can just think "HOLY FRELL THAT WAS BRILLIANT" and end up ignoring all the rest... and since you have so much going on in your vids, it takes many viewings for my brain to function properly :P).

*ahem* excuse me if I sound like a squeeing fangirl here... but I kind of am. :P

And oooooh boy, if you master AE, my brain will be gone forever, I JUST KNOW IT!

Oh snap. Well thank you! :D I'm not even gonna bother coming up with a response to your lovely comment. Instead I'm just gonna tackle you for a bit. *tacklesmooshes* :DDD

I liked Pass this On, madly, but yeah, I don't think fandom wanted to go there. Seeker fandom is interestingly, one of the fandoms I've been in where the squee outweights any desire for meta, cracky or otherwise.

Totally do a movie vid. I love doing movie vids, mostly because I only have two hours of footage to comb through, as opposed to 20 + for most TV series with even one season. It helps me focus things a lot.

Also: Marble House is friggin' awesome. I only partially understand it, but I can nonetheless appreciate the craftsmanship of the editing alone and the ambition which underlies the Big Picture Message of the vid. :)

Woot! Thanks, man. :) Yeah it's a biggie. Gonna be tough to try and surpass that for VVC this year. :/

Don't dwell on it. Otherwise you won't ever get anywhere.

I have ditched doing the Big Important vid for premieres this year in favor of doing a light(ish) vid for a small fandom and saying: SEE, YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO WATCH THIS MOVIE AND READ ALL THE BOOOOOKS. I tried to do a big idea vid for premieres last year and it just gave me headaches and caused unnecessary stress.

Video most underappreciated by the universe, in my opinion:

Definitely Pass This On, and yes, I am bitter. :P But only because it's about a very specific bit of meta that seemed HUGE to me at the time but I guess Seeker fandom just didn't even want to go to there.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE PASS THIS ON! It may have been my favorite from you this year.
