Weapon of Choice [Whose Line is it Anyway]

29 videos this year!

My favourite video this year (of my own):

My favourite video of this year is either ‘Can’t Touch It’ or ‘Weapon of Choice’…only because of the source material and because Whose Line videos are so awesome to make and then watch hehe! I would love to keep making WLIIA videos, just because of how easy and fun and amazing it is to make them!

My least favourite video this year:
The Way you Are. I do like this video, don’t get me wrong, just, I find it really difficult to sit through. The concept of the AU was something that I felt came across strongly, but still, I didn’t connect with this video at all.

My best video this year:
Think Twice. I knew, considering the concept of the video and how much I was in love with the song plus the fact I held onto the idea, hanging out for the third movie to be released on DVD, for four months (which is pretty good for me), I just really poured my heart and soul into this video. Honestly, this video really does have the best editing and lyrical interpretation.

My worst video this year:
Let Go. I do like this video, but, in the grand scale of things, it’s definitely not my best work.

Video most underappreciated by the universe, in my opinion:

Probably Seventeen. I was really proud of how that video came out, but I never really felt that it was received warmly by viewers hehe. I mean, people liked it, but I think it was underappreciated, or at least wasn’t appreciated as much as I loved it and thought it would be.

Most fun video:
Ooo…toss up between Can’t Touch It and Pretty Fly (for a white guy). Both equally fun fandoms and both great songs to vid to, so I think that would make them the most fun videos of the year.

Hardest video to make:
Either Think Twice or Beautiful People. Both of them took so long to actually produce and finally distribute. Especially Beautiful People, I remember working on that video on and off for about two months. It was different with Think Twice though, because I was so focused on making the video amazing that it flowed nicely, but still, all the editing stuff in there really made it a hard going video.

Most unintentionally telling video:
I really don’t know. None were very telling, at least not unintentionally. Maybe ‘You Could be Happy’. Just because its probably the saddest video I made and also one of the more beautiful ones.

Vidding in 2007:
I really think I definitely advanced my vidding skills in 2007. I didn’t feel like I made any horrible videos, even the worst ones I made weren’t THAT horrible, they just annoyed me. I feel like I am finally getting a grip on the editing thing hehe, and effects etc. I really do feel like I advanced my skills in 2007.

Vidding Projects in the Works Right Now:
I am currently working on a Logan/Veronica Season Three video, about their break-up and the turbulence of their relationship in Season Three. I am also completing a video for the Reverie Forum Secret Santa, which I am waiting for source material for. Oh, and I plan to make another Whose Line video as me and my brother are going to make one each, both about a different ‘guest’-y person. So, I’ll make mine about Chip Esten, and he’ll do Brad Sherwood.
