"The years and the hours, the seconds and minutes..."
So, here we are again, with another music vid (SGA again) to offer. One that ATE MY SOUL. Nomnomnomnommmm. Mmm, apparently quite tasty! Who knew? Well, other than almost every fandom I've been in…ah well.
Vid info, download links and an extensive, rambling vidder's note
Title: What is Eternal?
Song: from Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Beethoven's Last Night
Character: Rodney…oh, OOohhh Rodney
Category: episode-related (Last Man), angst, and does Rodney McKay count as its own category?
Spoilers: Yes, yes and very much YES. All of the show, particularly "The Last Man". Will probably make very little sense if you *haven't* seen season four, so don't watch if you have yet to be shown it, this means YOU,
utopiantrunks! *cough* ^_-

Notes: Vidder's note on just what addled thoughts were passing through my brain as this vid sucked hours, days, WEEKS from my life, can be found after the download links.

Vidder's Notes:
So, I first got obsessed with Beethoven's Last Night several weeks before "The Last Man" aired, and at the time, I recall thinking, hmm, "What Is Eternal" could make a fun SGA vid. Maybe a Rodney piece, maybe the whole team, whatever. With no clear ideas jumping out at me, I put it on the back burner to stew for a bit. Then they gave us the season finale and it was OMG must do this vid NOW. Rodney, oh Rodney, so, SO perfect.
And thus began several weeks of semi-permanent exhaustion. Because, beyond eating my soul, this vid also devoured most of the hours I should have been doing useful things, like say, oh, SLEEPING. But, totally worth it. 'Cause…well, Rodney!
Still being kinda new to this whole vidding 'thang, I used this opportunity to test some new techniques. Like the image matte keying feature, which opens all kinds of new doors. (Coincidentally, I also discovered my computer reeealllly doesn't like having both Photoshop and Premiere open at the same time :-p) I hope what I was trying to accomplish comes through in the end…and that I didn't clutter up the video too much. :-p
As always, I'd very much like to know what people think (truthfully, with all the hours, and amount of SOUL this has eaten up, it's more like 'incredibly anxious to know" :-p), C & C is tremendously welcome!

no subject
Well, fairly new, started last year, this is my fourth vid. Haven't had much experience with vidding (I'm an English teacher in Japan, so, nah, not much related :-p) but I've been using Photoshop and such for years, so have some familiarity with the programs and such. And have been fanning on vids for years and been wanting to try it, just never had the computer that could handle it :-p
...As for remembering clips for four years...*cough* well, um, I only got into SGA six months ago, and have since watched the entire show thru...er...several times...in the interest of sharing it with other...really! ^_- So, how shall we say, it's a bit fresh ^_-
And thanks for the links! I'll definitely have to check that out! DH's blog is just ever so fun, ain't it. Damn, but he's just so awesome! ^_-
