New vid! - "Woman King" (Deadwood)
This was my "official" Premieres vid for Vividcon this year, and the last new vid I'll be posting from VVC. I have an AVI version of the file but the sound is tinny and bothers me so I'm going to try to re-export and see what I can do.

blackbird claw, raven wing
under the red sun, hide
long clothesline, two shirtsleeves
waving as we go by
hundred years, hundred more
someday we may see
a woman king
wristwatch time
slowin as she goes to sleep
black horsefly, lemonade
jar on the red anthill
garden worm, cigarette
ash on the windowsill
hundred years, hundred more
someday we may see
a woman king
sword in hand
swing at some evil and bleed
black of mare, broken leg
high on the shotgun shell
age old dog, hornet nest
built in the big church bell
hundred years, hundred more
someday we may see
a woman king
bloodshot eye
thumb down and starting to weep...
Many, many, many thanks to renenet and tzikeh for talking through the lyrics with me before I ever started vidding. That conversation broke open the whole vid. Thanks also to them and sisabet for providing feedback on it through the development. And thanks to fer1213 who also beta'd, even though she didn't know the fandom at all, and made lots of astute remarks, as always. :)
I was really, really, REALLY happy (and relieved!) with how well this was received during the con. You folks who stopped to tell me you liked it, thank you so much. It meant a lot. Next year I'm hoping I won't suffer the same level of pre-show breakdown. Heh.
