Q&A

Q: What editing software do you use?
A: I use Sony Vegas 7.0 - there I answered; now there's no excuse to ask me ever again xD

Q: What song did you use in 'xxx' video?
A: I always mention the song somewhere; either it's in the title, in the video description, in the video or in the tags - so you don't have to ask me every single time I make a video.

Q: Where do you download your movies?
A: I don't. I buy the DVD's and rip them on to my computer. The quality is so much better than the movies you download. Technically I don't "rip" them. I decrypt them, and then I convert them.

Q: Could you send 'xxx' song/movie?
A: No, sorry. I don't send people music or movies/clips. It's a process that really gets on my nerves, so I've chosen not to do it at all. If you're a friend of mine I might make an exception, but other than that, no.

Q: In what episode did Rose get married?
A: I've been asked this a gazillion times, so PLEASE now you can stop! Rose doesn't get married in any of the Doctor Who episodes (and if you actually believe she did, you're not a true Doctor Who fan) - the clips of Billie Piper in a wedding dress is from Much Ado About Nothing, a movie Billie starred in.

Q: Can I use the Ron/Hermione kiss you made?
A: Yes, you don't even have to ask - I only require that you write in your video description, that the clip is made by me (and maybe leave a link for my website or channel).

Q: Do you take requests?
A: Well, you can try to write me what you want me to make, and then I'll tell you if I feel it's something I can/want to do.

Q: Sub 4 sub?
A: NO! I hate the whole 'sub 4 sub' concept, don't ask me to do it; it's just a waist of time and space, cause I'll ignore it! I'll subscribe to you if I'm interested in what you'll do next.

Q: Why haven't you answered my comment?
A: If I don't answer your comment; I'm really sorry! It's not because I want to be rude, but very often I don't have the time to write 'thank you' on every single comment, so it's not that I don't appreciate it - I just don't have time to answer all of them.

Q: Could you please help me with 'xxx'?
A: Well, very often I write back to people, when they ask me for help, but I can't promise I'll get back to you in case you do write. It also depends on the question asked. But if you have some patience; I'm gonna make some "Sony Vegas Guidesides" :)

Q: Can I add you on MSN?
A: Yes. No. Maybe. In case you do, please let me know first, so I know who I'm accepting ;P otherwise you might end up being blocked :-/

Up to date - as always

Hey!

So.. things have been a bit weird for me lately – I'm actually thinking of writing a 'book' about it xD lol.. tell me if you want me to :D

Anyways, on the subject of vidding, I just wanted to share some stuff with you, like pairings I want your opinion on, and what songs I wanna use, aaand some previews :P and updates on videos I've been working on forever :-/


So I'm just gonna start with a question!
I'm going to make a video with Hermione, Ron and Cassie (from Skins) ..and I wanted to know if you think I should use her as Lavender Brown or just as Cassie?? I'm gonna use her in a crossover as Cassie no matter what, but I wanna use some scenarios from HBP, so I thought “why not use her as Lavender?!” Would it be weird? Should I maybe just not do it? Or maybe just use the scenes in a video where she's still Cassie???

Oh, and do you have any song suggestions?? :D ..I have a few ideas, but not one where I'm like “wow!!” :-/


Songs I'm working with, or want to use:

“Prodigal” by OneRepublic
“I Can't Stay Away” by The Veronicas
“Time Is Running Out” by Muse
“Should I Stay” by Gabrielle
"Stop Crying Your Heart Out" by Oasis
“Stripped” by Shiny Toy Guns
“Map of the Problematique” by Muse
“All Around Me” by Flyleaf
"Time After Time" by Quiet Drive
"In Between" by Linkin Park
“Like a Prayer” by Rufio
"Songbook" by The Cadets
"Wonderwall" by Oasis
"Bittersweet Symphony" by The Verve
“Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler (unless I find another version, I find better)
“Sorry” by Daniel Bedingfield
“Sick” by Son Of Dork
“All Fall Down” by OneRepublic
“When It Rains” by Paramore
“Take a Bow” by Rihanna
“Misery Business” by Paramore

“Again & Again” by The Birds And The Bees
“Me & You” by Cassie
“If I Never See Your Face Again” by Maroon 5 feat. Rihanna

And I wanna make Doctor/Rose videos to my entire John Barrowman CD :P


And finally the previews of what I've been doing lately (which isn't much):







1: "Not far from here" - The Doctor & Rose

This is a video I've wanted to make ever since I heard the song for the first time, on the (OneRepublic) cd I gave my mother for her birthday - it just screeeeeams Doctor/Rose to me!! And about the last clip in the preview; I know it looks boring, but of course I'm gonna put some other clips on it :)

2: "Misery Business" - Freja/Simon/Mercedes

This is the newest piece I've made on the video. I don't really know how I feel about it.. I think the thing I like the least about it is aaall that annoying zooming :-/ So I'm probably gonna cut down on that for the last parts I need to make - Oh, and I still have to make 1:30 minutes before the video is done :-/

3: "Stripped" - The Doctor & Cassie

This is a crossover between the two british series' Doctor Who and Skins :) I thought it could be "fascinating" two make a video where the Doctor get's Cassie as a companion.. and this is NOT going to be a love story.. I've written a storyline-thingy:

The Doctor is still devastated after loosing Rose, but life goes on even when you don‘t want it to. He meets this young intriguing blond girl called Cassie. She fascinates him, and he asks her to go travelling with him. She accepts. He discovers she has a lot of problems; she doesn‘t eat, she takes pills, hoping they‘ll make her feel better; she’s lost, and that worries The Doctor. He wants her to get better, and to accept herself for who she is.
Cassie on the other hand thinks nothing is wrong with her, but she sees that something is very wrong with The Doctor - she can see how much he‘s suffering, and she wants to help him.

4: "Time Is Running Out" - Edward & Bella

This is something I don't normally do, but seeing as my creativity is at a low point, I just started making it.. It's a Twilight video - but it's a mix between the Twilight.- clips and real music video.. So this is supposed to be like an "official" video.. but I guess it won't :-/

5: Doctor Who Opening (Skins style!)

not really anything special about this - just longer than the YouTube preview/quality-test. I cut out the part I haven't made yet - and I've fixed the parts that's out of sync.. so don't tell me it's wrong; I know and it's been fixed :D
