you're welcome, the vid was wonderful to watch (and re-watch).
They really are (both subtle and there). I'm so happy that I captured just the thing that I was trying to capture. Stuart has such depth and we really only get to see hints of it in the series. the subtlety of it is part of the allure, don't you think? i keep discovering new things when i rewatch the show again and again. this is what makes me love stuart, even though he's such a bastard to my darling vince sometimes. and i think this is one of the reasons i could never get into QAFUS. brian just seemed *off* and it was all so gaudy (if that's the word i'm looking for, or maybe it's gauche? not a native english speaker, alas). about the credits - i remember one vid that totally blew me away with its use of credits. i don't remember the title, but i think it was by wolfling. i do know it was an eowyn vid (LOTR) and the title possibly had 'winter' in it. it did have fancy credits but they were so well done and went well with the vid as a whole. :( i don't think i should watch your wes vid until i'm feeling more emotionally stable(the opening frame made me hit the "stop" button v.v.v. fast). i just don't think that i can handle it. i still haven't been able to make myself watch NFA. but i did skip to the ending to see the titles, and yes, they do fit more and seem less obtrusive than the ones in this vid, especially in the moment of transition from vid to credits. i'm still not that crazy about the visual effects (i'm more of a simple 'scroll up' girl, like the credits in the movies, or just one frame with all the info, dissolving or blurring later). it's just that the vids are so *strong*, and the text effects in the credits don't really add anything to it, and possibly detract something by drawing attention away from the effect of the vid on the viewer. then again, it's just my opinion. i apparently suck at vidding, so i can't say it counts for much :)
