New vid

[netlynn]

This will more than likely be my last Clana video.   As much as I loved them as a couple (despite what TPTB did to them), there is no one else in Smallville world that I could ever see Clark loving as much as Lana.  I’ve been working on this thing for months but RL got in the way and then I got stuck and unmotivated but I’ve finally finished the

Um. I had too much to say, I guess. Because PART 2. *bangs keys*

God, I know I’m skipping around, but at 3:11 when they were smiling at each other under the covers. The song says, All I want is just one moment more… And THAT is what they want, more moments just like that one. Because had there ever been a time for them when they felt that connected and happy and close? When there wasn’t anything hidden between them and Clark didn’t have to hold back and Lana knew all of him. Even though I think that for all of his young life, Clark thought that all he wanted was to be ‘normal’ like other men, to be more human than alien because he thought he couldn’t be loved any other way; to feel that with Lana for those few days in Requiem, that he could be exactly what he was and experience how it felt to be adored by her, honestly for the whole man that he was, just makes me come undone. THIS is my favourite few seconds out of the whole video - out of Clark and Lana’s whole relationship - because of that truth, and how they held it to

Well hell, can you tell I got busy today and didn't get a chance to finish part 2? I'm loving my new job but I stay so busy the days are flying by and I can't seem to get everything done that I want to. I know you know what that's like. Anyway, I'm not complaining because I am loving every second of this job.

And THAT is what they want, more moments just like that one. Because had there ever been a time for them when they felt that connected and happy and close? When there wasn’t anything hidden between them and Clark didn’t have to hold back and Lana knew all of him.

See? Here is yet another time when your brilliant brain got the point across that Net didn't know how. That's exactly how I'm sure they would have felt and wishing for so many more moments just like that one.

THIS is my favourite few seconds out of the whole video ...

Srsly? favourite?? You speaking british english now? *cracks up* Maybe S just rubbed off on you or something. I don't know why but that cracked me up, Miss Editor.

And God, the look

I swear I'll shut up in a second. But Arthur deserves his own icon and his own space for a comment here.

And Arthur? Is totally hot.

Hot is just... not covering him, GUH, oh God.

I have totally got the bug to vid them next but I want to know how from my flist would watch?

*stands on top of desk and jumps up and down* Me me me!!! I would! Ohhhh, yes. Dude, you know this. And … well. I’ll keep the Arthur lust to myself in here for now. (For now, mind you.) Because it could SO get out of hand. *grits teeth*

Um, you know I’m ready to spout off scenes and lines and stuff for that, right? :)

ILU! ♥♥♥

[netlynn]

*cracks up* NOOOOO!! Don't shut up, I like it when you talk, I could listen for days on end. ;-)

Speaking of hot .... don't you owe me something?!?!? Cuz I swear you said something about that. Actually, now that I think about it, there were two different things you owe me. :-(

Um, you know I’m ready to spout off scenes and lines and stuff for that, right?

Ok. I am so ready but are you sure you'll have time? Maybe when you get back? I still wanna do the other thing we were planning too but ya know ... I never got any notes. :-( Whatever you want to do, I'm always game. But the Merlin thing has me especially pumped right now.

ILUUUUUUUUUU!!!

Oh my goodness! I am so glad you prodded me to watch this. I had downloaded it and it was sitting on my Desktop, waiting for me--I do that sometimes when I see a vid post and want to grab it but am too distracted at that time to watch properly. I have time now, and your vid is BEAUTIFUL

[netlynn]

Oh my goodness! I am so glad you prodded me to watch this.

*hides of embarrassment* I still cannot believe I did that but I am totally glad I did. I honestly wanted to know what your opinion would be and I have to tell you ... I am soooo excited! Like I said earlier, I have been a fan of your vids for a while now and I am always impressed by what you do and it means a lot that you took the time to watch mine and let me know what you thought. It means even more that you actually enjoyed it. lol

I must rec it because I know at least one person who will love it, and I'm sure there will be more.

Thank you! That is always the best compliment I could ask for, when someone wants to rec something I've done. It's so hard to find people who will take the time to put up with the Clana for 3 or 4 minutes to watch something but I'm glad you were able to look past that and enjoy the video for what I intended it to: A sad and heartbreaking farewell.

Those rare perfect, sparkling moments which they lived together are so poignant, so

Oh, I'm glad to hear you had a successful beta process! It can be really tough when you get 'stuck', can't it? I have been stuck so many times, and it can be quite a despairing position. I'm glad you stuck at it because I must say I couldn't see any traces of it having been a struggle--it felt very coherent.

Thanks so much for your words about my own vidding. I'm trying not to feel shy or embarrassed about it! I'm really touched. I am so glad you've found your own vidding 'voice' with this work, and I feel very lucky if my vids helped inspire you in any way.

I'm reccing vids every Wednesday and will rec yours this week.

Oh, I'm glad to hear you had a successful beta process! It can be really tough when you get 'stuck', can't it?

With the exception of my first vid, I've always used a beta and I think it's easier for me that way. Not only to make sure the flow seems right but at times the beta will help me think of something else that would work better. This was my 10th vid that I've done and my first with using Vegas. I have to admit, I ended up putting the titles on in WMM because I was getting frustrated trying to figure it out in Vegas. LOL

I'm trying not to feel shy or embarrassed about it!

NO!! Don't feel shy or embarrassed about it, I meant it. I love watching how flawless your vids are and I hope that mine will be somewhere near that one day.

I'm reccing vids every Wednesday and will rec yours this week.

Thank you again, for everything. For taking the time to let me know what you thought and for reccing my vid. I truly feel honored. You are sooooo sweet.

Oh Net, this was so worth the wait. You capture Clana better than anyone. I seriously cried watching this, my heart just broke. They were such a Great couple and went through so much. I love the old Smallville moments you brought in to this, I love the early episodes so much!! I am just completely speechless with this one, it was so good. Thanks for giving me a heads up on this. I had never heard this song before but it just fit so well with what you were telling. Very well done, you are just so good. :)

[netlynn]

Heeeeey Jennifer!! You finally got to see it?? I am so glad you enjoyed it! Can you believe it took me half the stupid season to finish? I got seriously stuck at the end and then .... ya know. RL sort of kicked me in the ass again. BUT. I am much better now but I miss talking to you. *hugs* How are things with you??

You capture Clana better than anyone. I seriously cried watching this, my heart just broke. They were such a Great couple and went through so much.

Awww, thanks! I'm glad you got choked up while watching this one, that is exactly what I was hoping for. That last episode of Requiem just about broke my heart and I wanted this video to show me things I wished they had done on SV. No matter what happened with their storylines, there is no denying their chemistry together and I will forever miss them as a couple.

Thank you again my friend, for taking the time to watch and for leaving me such sweet feedback.

*hugs*
