Awesome list!!! Can I give you a hug for reccing one of mine? And why am I not surprised you recc'd jarrow272's vid? That vid is frakkin' AMAZING! It's also perfect example of great editing is all in the editor, not the software, 'cause it was done in ULead. :D

I was just rewatching it and it really looks oh so crisp.
Oh, and jag's FS vid is flocked... Heh. Didn't notice. Oopsie. Fixed now.
so many shiny vids!!! i just watched the starbuck one--of course i had to watch that one first!--and it's gorgeous, but i get so distracted by the sudden appearances of the skyone or scifi logo. is it really difficult to take those out or why do people leave them in? since i have no clue about vidding, i figured i should ask you :)
but i get so distracted by the sudden appearances of the skyone or scifi logo. is it really difficult to take those out or why do people leave them in? K. I shall do my best to answer your question. ;)
In Photoshop you can use the clone stamp tool to sort of erase the logos without losing any of the pic. If you're clever enough, that is. But when vidding, it's every frame that's stamped, so the only way, or I should say the only easy way, is to crop it out. That way you have to zoom into the frame and that decreases the quality of your vid. But not only that, it will most definitely mess up the intended frame. By that I mean you'll probably be cutting off Kara's forehead or something. It won't look pretty and it REALLY won't look natural.
Using DVD footage is best, of course, but when it's unavailable and you gotta vid, well there's nothing to do but use downloads. :)
ahh, i see. thanks for explaining! i was wondering if there was a nifty technique for taking it out. the logos usually don't bother me that much, but in that vid, they definitely did. maybe because they were in opposite corners.
of course! have you seen dualbunny's latest? I just watched it this morning! ZOMG awesomeness. She's really the master of the deadly combo that is Pink + Starbuck. Her vids rule.
the logos usually don't bother me that much, but in that vid, they definitely did. maybe because they were in opposite corners. Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. And it is that. Because if they're in the same place you get used to them. Like the Scifi bug or any vidder's watermark. You just get used to it. But to have it jump around can be distracting. However, it really sucks that it bothered you on such an amazing and moody vid. Maybe rewatch now? :P
Dude I can't believe you beat me at making a vid recs post! I've been meaning to do another one for MONTHS! But I is 2 busy :( Yours kicks much more ass than mine ever will though, and yay for the pretty banner :D I'm getting ready to watch the SGA one now, but so far my fav is Falling from the sky. I ;hearts Starbuck.
Mwahaha! Yes. No, I mean. :P Yeah, it's just something I try to do regularly but fail at frequently. But it's good in a way because the vids piled up.
and yay for the pretty banner :D That's all you, mah dear! You got me hooked on making banners for rec posts. I likes this one. They be watching vids! :D
I'm getting ready to watch the SGA one now, but so far my fav is Falling from the sky. I ;hearts Starbuck. The SGA one is just fun, imo. The BSG ones pwn. Especially the Starbuck ones. Yowza!
