My first attempt at an SGA music vid!

[gnine]

So, here we are again. Been close to a year since I posted my last vid (worked on a couple in the interim, just never finished 'em, oops :-p) so this comes in as my third complete vid, whee! For SGA this time…and McShep. Er…what can I say, I lose at being a Gen fan…'course, really, half the time I lose at being a slash fan as well so…er…yeah.

Anyway, on to the vid, d/l and youtube links found below:

Title: All For You
Song: "All For You" by Sister Hazel
Pairing: John/Rodney
Category: Romantic-cute, pining!John
Spoilers: Through the current episode (Season 4, Trio)
Size: ~47 MB
Format: .avi
Notes: This very nominally friendshipper's fault, seeing as a few weeks ago she did a music meme that included this song, and when I saw it, I was like, hmm, haven't listened to that in a while, think I have the mp3 somewhere. Put it on while reading a McShep fic, apparently not the wisest of ideas because my brain immediately jumped to "wow, this works waaaay to well for John and Rodney." So yeah, blame her and her random music selection ^_-. Or xparrot, who wouldn't stop pestering me to do it after I first happened to mention having the vague inkling.

Lyrics to the song can be found here.

Or you can just watch it here:

C & C very, very much appreciated. Still kinda new to this vidding thing, would love to know what people think.

YAY.....I can't stop smiling :-) How could you not love this pairing. Thanks for sharing.

Ah interesting. All I suggest is that you take a research track masters. I wish I had. They are worth a lot more than taught masters. Do you have anywhere particular in mind? Also, my Masters killed me ded. But I loved it anyway. But yeah I want to do a phd too but I have to take a few decades off after the pain of last year.

Congratulations on that! I know it's hard. And I havent really ever taken much notice of real grammar so... should be fun. Oh yes. My 2007 was STUDYSTUDYSTUDYsekritficdoctorwhoSTUDYSTUDYOMGESSAYGOTTABEINTOMOROTIMETOWRITEPRoN and so on....

Oh, I just bought my max amount again (10 bucks for a year? Sure why not. lol) LJ is my vice, so I have to have a ton of icons to express myself. heh.

I know nothing about vidding ... but I do know what I like!

Hee - this was adorable (or should that be adorkable, said in the nicest possible way).

I especially liked the way you fit the boat scene from Doppleganger to the words (rain, etc.). In whole the music was the perfect vehicle for the action.

Also, one can never have too many scenes of the boys exchanging looks and smiles. Or seeing Rodney thrown over the balcony to show off his new toy. So, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Giddy hugs,
H.

Oh, and I watched it twice on UTube and am just d/ling it now. So it's very considerate of you to provide options.

Now I want to watch it again. And again.
It's not as if I have anything else to do today!
Silly me,
H.

Oh, I really liked this! I'm no expert on vidding, but I really enjoyed that you interpreted the song both literally and metaphorically, and you have cuts that are just so crisp and right I was bouncing in my chair.

*hits play again*

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Yeah...it really is impossible to say no to it. I mean, I tried for a time. Just friends, I said, I see it as gen, really, they're just...oh...no, wait, wait. What am I talking about, they're totally, TOTALLY in love! ^_^

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Adorkable is one of my favorite words and so aptly describes John and Rodney, I take it in the best possible way! ^_-

So glad you liked it...and yeah, watching Rodney get tossed off a balcony and John's huge grin as he does it just never ever gets old! ^_^ *huggles back*

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Hehehee *blushes happily* really, means a lot to here that. I always watch my favorite vids over and over again and to have others doing it for my vid? *does happy giddy squee dance* yay! You made my day...err...or rather my night, seeing as it's going on three a.m. here :-p

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! Was having fun with interpreting the song, glad it works ^_^

[crysothemis.livejournal.com]

Okay, now I've watched it three times, and I have to tell you I love the way it resonates off of canon. You've managed to lay out four years of the subtext I love in a coherent story. ♥

[gwendolynflight.livejournal.com]

aww, that was adorable!

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much, glad you liked it! ^_^

[bagheera-san.livejournal.com]

Niiice. I'd ask you why you don't vid more often, except vidding is SO MUCH WORK, so there's an obvious answer.

But this is kind of the quintessence of what's good about McShep. And, um, I had forgotten a bit how hot Sheppard is.

[berlinghoff79.livejournal.com]

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing :)

[lim.livejournal.com]

Dawwww. This made me happy. <3

[thrace-adams.livejournal.com]

Oh this was a wonderful vid. a lot of fun and a lot of great McShep moments :)

[galadriel1618.livejournal.com]

SUPERB editing! And whoa, this was the first time I'd listened to this song in years! (I used to have the cassette tape the song was on. >.>) You're correct; the song is a wonderful fit for John and Rodney! I can NEVER get enough pining!John, so I'm absolutely enthralled with this video. I've said this before, and I'll say it again: there aren't enough McShep fanvids from John's perspective. You did a brilliant job of showing that perspective off. Love the timing, the composition...everything. Hope to see other SGA vids from you in the future!

[blissfire.livejournal.com]

Oh, that was so happy and fun! I loved it. -saves- Thanks!

[d_odyssey.livejournal.com]

You rock! Fantastic job, the clips were awesome matching the words and feel of the song. The song is perfect for John and Rodney. I was mesmerized looking at the clips, guessing the episode and lost in the McSHep love. Love it. This blew me away, you put this together like a seasoned pro. Wow - great job. Hope to see more from you. Downloaded from Sendspace - thanks for sharing.

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Heheh, I actually have vidded a bit more, just unfinished. I have this reeeallly long SV one that was close to being done that one of these days I really need to finish.

But yeah, it does just suck up the hours.

And yeah, he is incredibly attractive, ain't he? ^_-

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Thanks, glad you liked it ^_^

[gnine.livejournal.com]

^_^ So glad, thank you so much!

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Getting an excuse to go watch the show finding cute McShep moments was half the reason for doing the vid ^_- Also, heeeehehe to your icon! ^_^

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Wow, thanks so much!

I know, I can't get enough pining!John either! It's just sooo much more how I see the relationship. I think Rodney will return it when he *realizes*, but for now, *whooosh*. But John, oh John...so SO in love. I mean, how can you watch the beginning of Quarantine any other way, really?

I am hoping to do more, this show just gives so many great images to work with, so...^_^
