my first vid

[fun_like_that]

So I didn't go to bed till 8:30 this morning just so I could get this done. I'm really proud of myself on this effort. It doesn't compare to the vids that other people do so well but I worked hard and as long as I'm happy that's all that matters. Not sure what all goes into posting these things but here I go.

Without further ado:

Title: Cannonball by Damien Rice
Pairing: B/J, set in s2/3
Rating: Probably a mild R? There are a couple racy parts, albeit brief.
Genre: Angst/Romance
Size: 12.5mb
Disclaimer: I really didn't mean any infringement with this. And even if I did? I only have 19.54$ in my bank account. Please don't take my lunch money. I'd like to eat this week. *looks pitiful*

PLEASE RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE TARGET AS.

Cannonball by Marishna

Big huge mega-Mari thanks to mirax_terrik for sending me this song (so it could be construed as BLAME Mirax instead...) when I was down and out on my mp3s. Thanks to nikita_80 for watching and helping me and giving me support. Huge, ginormous thanks to m_annalore for not beating me when I asked if I could put the vid up on my site and take her space. I still have the smaller version but it wasn't as pretty... *looks pitiful again* Can I keep this one?

Hopefully this all works. Thanks for reading and listening and enjoy! And remember, reviews make me feel special inside. Yeah, just... like... that.

Saw you mention your vid on the hub, so I thought I'd check it out. Just wanted to say - very sad, very sweet! I love the song choice. It's quite nice. :)

Oh. my. GUH.

I've ALWAYS wanted someone to vid either Damien Rice or Jonatha Brooke and you've made my little fan girl vid dreams come true! Thank you, thank you!

The video's great and I think I'll be watching it again ... like ... now-ish.

Thank YOU for watching and enjoying! That part "so come on courage/teach me to be shy" was floating in my head for a few days with that scene in 408 and I decided to try. I'm glad it came out well and that people are liking it.

Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching!

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you SO much for taking the time to watch and comment on this Gio! It means so much to me and I'm glad you liked it!

*hugs*

[luckycharm-13.livejournal.com]

That was so beautiful! So perfect and so sad... :) Are you planning on making more vids? Please?

[marishna.livejournal.com]

Thanks for watching! Um... I don't know. This one started sort of on a fluke to see if I could even get the hang of it. I'm not sure if I'll do another but if the mood strikes or I hear a song I just HAVE to put something to, I might.

*shrugs* I guess we'll see. :)

[luckycharm-13.livejournal.com]

It's pretty wonderful for a fluke! :D Was it hard to do? Because it was really great, especially for the first try. Anyway, here's hoping you hear something that inspires you. :)

[marishna.livejournal.com]

It was.... I'm not sure. I think I was just very, very lucky that things worked out so well. I'm not sure if it was hard or not, which sounds retarded, I know, but I don't have anything to compare it to. I'd say it was a little easier just because I didn't end up screaming in frustration and stabbing my computer with a fork.

Clearly I have rage issues.

[heartagram.livejournal.com]

Just thought I'd say that was an amazing vid. And hi, I'm glad I've added you to my friends list! :)

[marishna.livejournal.com]

*waves* I debated friending you for a few days cause I feel weird doing it first. I don't want to come off seeming weird or creepy or anything cause I never know what to say, lol. SO I'm glad you weren't freaked out!

Thanks for your comments on the vid. I'm so very relieved that people are enjoying it and are actually commenting. :)

Looking forward to hearing more from you and getting to know you!

[heartagram.livejournal.com]

I feel really special! And it's not weird at all. I just hope you like me and stuff since I am a bit weird and crazy myelf. Also, lately my entries have been like depressive. Haha. But of coure, I'm not freaked out. Glad to have you added.

The video was awesome, and I know the feeling when someone loves your vid. I got that with my vid to "My Decemeber" - that's like my baby and stuff. Haha. <3

[marishna.livejournal.com]

I've seen that one! I think. Unless there are two people with a "My December" vid. I liked it! Fun!

[ladykane.livejournal.com]

I LOVE that song you chose! Great vid!

[marishna.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

cool

[mewsicfreak.livejournal.com]

I don't really know what goes into making one of these but I can imagine it's not easy. So congrats. I only watched about 1 1/2 minutes of it. I had other things to do, but from what I saw of it, it looks pretty good. But I'm ignorant: who are those people in it?

Re: cool

[marishna.livejournal.com]

It's a Queer as Folk US vid. The people in it are Brian (the tall, dark one) and Justin (the smaller, blond one). It's a great show to watch and lots of fun.

Glad you like the vid, what you saw of it. :)

[chiquis5784.livejournal.com]

I just saw your first B/J vid & i'm liking it! Very cool vid Mari! *goes off to pimp it* ;)

[marishna.livejournal.com]

[bea-nonymous.livejournal.com]

Mari, this was lovely. Very emotional:((

And I LOVED the song! I've never heard of it, or of the singer, so of course I ran out and downloaded it. Tis beautiful.:))

[marishna.livejournal.com]

Thank you SO much Aida! You have no idea how much this means to me, coming from you.

You made my whole day :)

[eleveninches.livejournal.com]

This is really, really good. I love the song and your choice of clips.

[marishna.livejournal.com]
