Fanvid time!

Nov 25, 2007 21:38

We all love our fanvids, right? I thought it was about time I join in the fun and take care of this idea I've had kicking about in my head since June.

The song is My Body is a Cage by Arcade Fire. You can find the lyrics here, if you care to read them. I'm quite fond of the song, and since I first heard it have been able to associate it with ( Read more... )

This was a really enjoyable fanvid! I liked the way you put everything together, and the different colors was a nice touch!
I really need to get this show on DVD @_@

Oh yes you absolutely must. How do you think I've been getting through the writer's strike? XD

Thanks for watching!

ooooh I *really* liked that. It's always nice to see a more serious take on fanvids because it seems like almost all of them are ~*zomg gay and happy*~ which isn't a bad thing but can be overdone. I think that the characters of Chuck and Geoffrey are really open to serious bizness sort of discussions about homosexuality in america (and so on and so forth) so I'm pleased to see somebody take on the darker side of Chuck.

I really like the song selection and thought process behind it, I think that's a really great song and can definitely be interpreted the way you used it and I had actually thought of Chuffrey when I first heard it (no I'm not obsessed at all).

I liked the use of color sepia and black and white and think you really synced up a lot of the clips really nicely. So all in all I say Good Job, Chuck you shattered the macaroons! ;)

Wow, thanks for the uber-commenting! And good to know I'm not alone in my tendency to take teh lulz seriously sometimes.

And I just want to say that I'd never heard 'Chuffrey' before. I'm not one for name combos like that, but I have to say, that has a nice ring to it. XD

haha isn't Chuffrey great? I'm usually not one to ever use name combos (besides Filliam H. Muffman of course) but it sorta came to me one day and I was like OMG PERFECT and I could totally see Geoffrey making up dumb names for them.

oh, you made that video? i'm quite new to this fandom and to this comm, but i found the video a couple of weeks ago and have watched it at least once a day since. it's brilliantly done! i particularly love the moment when they're suddenly in the bathroom, slamming each other around, and the music goes very loud on the partial line "my body is..." wow. (i had never heard the song before seeing the video, but now it's a real favorite.)

my compliments and thanks for the pleasure of the video.
