mini dvd commentary meme
Via
chaila, this looks about the right speed for my brain this week, which is made of fuzz and ill and allergies.
Mini-DVD Meme: Pick any section of a vid or a paragraph or any passage less than 500 words from any fanfic I've written and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet of what I was thinking when I made or wrote it, why I wrote it, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the vid or fic, and anything else you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.
Fanwork Masterlist.

I didn't find vidding Finding Nemo to be particularly different to working with live action source, although that is possibly in part because I was working with limited footage and was doing something fairly simple, namely a linear character study.
Vidding Avatar was definitely a different experience, though! I really enjoyed it, and it was super interesting to see the way the footage just responded differently to how my usual sources would. The way motion works is quite different, because there are a lot of moments of stillness, which might be relatively short or quite long, which is cool and useful for doing stuff like crossfades and overlays, but other times meant I ended up needing to add quite a lot of motion. All of which I really liked because it forced me to expand a bit as a vidder, which is always a good thing. I should vid some more Avatar some time!
