Vid: Someone Else's Prayer (Queer as Folk UK; Stuart/Vince; Series 1)

For me, the fascinating thing about vidding is that it's meta, basically (except for constructed realities, of course). You use what the show gives you and you construct an argument.

Ex. #1: Angel=GAY!!!
You say, watching Angel, "Dude, Angel's kinda gay." And if you are [livejournal.com profile] sisabet and [livejournal.com profile] sockkpuppett, you then come up with Whatever, which takes that argument and backs it up with visual evidence from the show. And then people are very amused.


Ex. #2: Jack - Daniel = sadness
You say, watching Stargate SG-1, "Dude, Daniel's death didn't really help Jack's state of mind." And if you are [livejournal.com profile] barkley, you then create Pretty Angry, where we can see for ourselves that Jack is indeed not so cheery and that Daniel's lack of a sense of self-preservation may have contributed just a bit.


Ex. #3: Stuart + (Vince + Cameron) = Stuart - Vince
You say, watching Queer as Folk, "Dude, Stuart is so very in love with Vince." And if you are me, you then make Someone Else's Prayer.

Someone Else's Prayer

Summary:
Vince isn't the only person here who wants what he can't have.

What I'd give right now not to even care
And then this could be someone else's prayer


In other news, the Narnia trailer takes my breath away. Just... the pretty. That is one seriously shiny trailer. It's a good year to be of the fannish inclination -- there's a Big Damn Movie in September, and now this in December, and I'm looking forward to Harry Potter and the Missing Comma as well. Plus, I'm very much anticipating the third part of The Siege (Stargate Atlantis) and the ninth season of SG-1, both in July.

Wow, that was a wonderful and angsty vid - I'm always in awe of vidders, it seems like magic to me, this vidding business lol Congrats *g*

Oh, thank you. That's an absolutely lovely thing to say.

[identity profile] killabeez.livejournal.com 2005-05-13 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, god, how much of a sucker am I for that vid? Just stamp "squee!!" on my forehead. All those long, lingering shots of the pretty, and the love, and the pain, and the perfectness that is them. Thank you so much for that. I really needed it.

Oh, yay! I'm so beyond thrilled that you like it. I never would have thought of vidding QaF if not for your vid. Your vid is what inspired me to get the dvds.

And this vid just... completely sums up why I love Stuart and Stuart/Vince.

I don't know much about Queer as Folk, but that's a pretty video, and I applaud your choice of music. *uses appropriate icon*

[identity profile] butterfly.livejournal.com 2005-05-14 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you!

And I remember seeing that icon (and your post on it, though I didn't have time to comment) and thinking that it was neat. It's a great song.

Awesome vid!

Thank you so much for making and posting this video! It's great. I was excited when I saw you had made a video for UK QAF as that's one of my favorite fandoms and there is not a whole lot of vedeos out there on it. Once I had actually downloaded and watched it, I was thrilled. It's a beautiful video.

Thank you! It was such a joy to make. I think that I'm addicted to this vidding thing now.

It's a good year to be of the fannish inclination

I think it's a good period in general to be of fannish inclination, as I said to someone, oh, back around the time Buffy's musical episode aired.

It helps that I'm big on the Star Wars too, I suppose. Star Wars and Harry Potter in particular (books and movies) are record setters, benchmarks, and it's fabulous to live during the time where we still have more to anticipate from them.

But yeah, in addition, I'm stoked about everything else you mentioned. And I'm not a Dr. Who fan, but I'll bet they're all excited and happy too. In general, I think it's a great time, unless you're a Trek fan, heh.

I haven't seen the Narnia trailer yet- I tried to get it from some movie tickets site? But it didn't download. What link are you using?

I watched this last night and only remembered now to come back and comment -- really wonderful. I just adore UK QaF and Vince and Stuart are just... and the SONG! I love it. I love Mary Chapin Carpenter's "The Dreaming Road" and this song is fabulous. Now I want to make a QaF vid! Yay! *Smooch*
ext_1774: butterfly against blue background (Default)

[identity profile] butterfly.livejournal.com 2005-05-17 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you!

Vince and Stuart really are just wonderful. And when I heard the song, I had to make the vid -- it fit that part of the story so well.

And more QaF UK viddage would be a good. The only other vid that I know of is Little Brother (which I adore so much) and it is much too good a show to have so few vids.

[identity profile] butterfly.livejournal.com 2005-05-17 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, wow, thank you.

My vid was mentioned onlist? Very cool (I'm actually on the yahoogroup, is the funny thing, but I haven't had a chance to check my email in a couple of days).

And that is such a sweet icon.

Ah! Beautiful and haunting. A really excellent vid. Saw someone posted the link on the QAFUK LJ and S/V, and just wanted to let you know your efforts were appreciated, greatly.

[identity profile] butterfly.livejournal.com 2005-05-18 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you!

It was so much fun to make. Stuart is so gorgeous and it's too easy to miss his feelings for Vince in the beginning, because Vince's feelings are made so obvious.

Raises Hand....

[identity profile] xof1013.livejournal.com 2005-05-18 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)

I would be the pimp from the S/V list...lol.

Truly, I adored the video and wanted to share the wealth!!!

You did a marvelous job, and I can only hope (HINTING BIG TIME) that you might grace us with another one soon.

Hugs

Well, thank you very kindly.

Stuart and Vince are a big happy place for me. So, I suspect that I will eventually feel the need to vid their happy ending.

i can't believe i missed this :( any chance for a repost? (and also, just read your post about ep1 of QAFUK - the deepr meaning of vince "being" kate winslet! i hadn't even thought of that... wow.)

The QaF file's a wee bit too big for me to bother with right now, but I shall check it out. You might like to check out this site: Zippy Videos (http://www.zippyvideos.com) for your video uploading, so far as I know, the files don't have to be re-uploaded like yousendit ^_^

Can I just ask where you got your icon from? If you made it where did you get the cap? I've been looking around for a pic of Vince and Stuart dancing for days now!

Wow, I can't believe I've never thought to look for a QAF fandom online before today. Any chance of a re-upload on the video? I'd probably prefer the smaller file as I'm on dial-up but either would be much appreciated!

Thanks! That was really pretty and angsty yay! I was a little confused about POV at times, but that didn't detract from the obvious manlove. ^_^

Thanks, I'm really glad that you enjoyed it.

It was only the second vid that I made, so hopefully I've gotten stronger on establishing pov. I'm actually planning on redoing this one day -- this was the last vid that I made before I got Premiere, so the tech stuff isn't as clean as my later work, I think.
