Ais, you SO didn't have to dedicate that to me

I HEART YOU! *Sammy!smishes! and Megatron!Hugs!* ....*fangirl merry-go-round*

First of all, totally original idea! LOVE the photo album bit...SUCH a good gimmick

I loved the whole video, but my favorite thing about it was the bits when there was one clip still and sepia while the other ran before the sepia still turned into a color moving clip. Loved it so much. *takes a picture of the Dean clones bowing down to the greatness of Aislynn*

I. love. you.

kthanxbye

Uruviel: I'm so glad you noticed the whole "2 vids in 1" thing!

That was the part that nearly killed Baby Vegas: I had 2 "full" vids running at the same time! Baby was nearly falling apart on me by the time I got to the end!

Thanks so much! *hugs!*

wolffootball37:

"I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy!"[/end Wayne's World moment]

Thank you SO much for saying such wonderful things! I really, really appreciate it! *hugs*

Polarbear: Thanks so much, Pauly! *squishes you*

Timing those two separate timelines so they would work together to carry the beat was a tricky thing! I'm so relieved that you thought it worked!

Izzy94: Cookie! Yay!

Awwww, thanks bunches for all the nice things you said! So glad you liked it!*hugs*

*munches on cookie* Mmm, cookie!

KajaM: I actually was beginning to wonder if I was ever going to finish this one, lol!

Thank you so much for saying that about the timing! I worked forever trying to get that all to come out together, not just the flashes but the clip changes and the still effects, all working on their own and together.

I'm so glad you liked it!

*squeezy hugs*

azzurra13: Thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed it!

IntoTheVoid: Jealous? With your mad skillz? Pshaw!

*hugs* Thanks bunches!

marcus: *squee!* I'm especially happy you mentioned the fading people away thing because I just love that effect!

Thanks so much for all the great things you said! *blush*

*hugs!*

Scu: Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked the vid and the song both!

Belxf: Thank you! I'm so thrilled you enjoyed it!

I'm still watching your "Lips of an Angel" vid! It's just amazing!

Thanks again!

PsychoCynic: Awwww, thanks so much! And thanks also for all the encouragement you've given me on this and many other vids! I always seem to reach a point where I just need somebody to tell me, "You can do it!" and you always come through for me!

*hugs!*

Kait: Hey Kait! Glad to see you again! I'm still going to do an NCIS vid one of these days!

(I could totally see Tony/Ziva to this song...

) Anyway, thanks so much for commenting and I'm so glad you enjoyed!

cylune: Awwww! Thanks so much, hon!

The page turning effect was the animation that tripped me up at the start, grrr...

Didn't think I would ever figure out how to make it work!

The "double point of view" thing was something that I really wanted to take advantage of since this format let me do it! I tried to put in several canon scenes that way, showing them both at the same time. But that hug was something I was hoping would really benefit from the double p.o.v.! And you certainly deserve thanks for all the encouragement and help you've given me! *hearts* you! *squishy hugs*

Hobbes: *blush*

*repeats the "Not worthy!" mantra*

Awwwwww, thank you! Nothing better than a detailed review from Sir Hobbes! I'll let both you and Cinthia (and anybody else who wants to know

) in on the big Page Turning Secret...

After running animation test after test and coming up with horrifying

results,

it finally dawned on me to see if Vegas had something that would replicate the effect I wanted. And, of course, it does!

That was the Page Peel transition, customized so that it would go across instead of up from one corner. The tricky part was the fact that I had 3 timelines to turn (one for Sawyer, one for Kate and one for the photo album mask), so for it to work correctly, I had to render those 3 together before I could turn them. Which meant that I had to be sure I was done editing that section or I was going to have to rerender it and replace it if I came back later and changed anything with its timing.

Anyway, I'm SO glad that you enjoyed it! Thanks again for taking time to comment!

mistojen: Well, of course I had to dedicate it to you; you had the awful task of seeing it in an early beta form where it looked like I was having a nervous breakdown all over my vidding!

I mean, for that alone you should get a medal or something! At least a commemorative t-shirt: "I survived an early beta of Aislynn's vid!"

I'm glad you liked the alternating sepia still/motion thingie (the technical term for it, lol!

)! I was really hoping that that would work out to help carry the photo album feel! *joins the fangirl merry-go-round* Whee!!!

And Dean clones??? *pounces*

Thank you SO much for all of your helpful advice, for trying to help me work out a way to manage the clip choices for basically 2 vids at the same time

so it wouldn't take me until the year 2525 to finish

and just for all of your support and encouragement! *huge squishy super(natural!)hugs!* Hey, now I have time to finally make that icon!

*hearts you liek woah*

Thanks again to all who watched and commented!

Oops, sorry I cross-posted you, Borislava!

Thanks so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

(After all, I know this is definitely not your ship!

But it's good to know that we can still like vids for other ships.

I've loved your beautiful Jate vids!

)

Oh, are you suuuuuuuuuure you don't want the commemorative t-shirt?

i already commented this on youtube but its just fantabulous

loved how you did this video its just so orginal and brilliant

AlcoholicPixie · Posted: Mon Jun 04, 2007 12:46 pm Post subject: Walking Behind by Aislynn

Yay! B!tchy Badongo finally let me download this!

Wow, Ais. Just... wow. Firstly, great song choice - hadn't heard that one but I'll definitely have to download it now. Second of all... the VIDEO!!!!! It's just pure fantasmo - amazingbrilliantlovelywonderful, and you KNOW I don't use my four-words-in-one very often. I'm gonna have to watch this at least ten more times today, since I was mainly watching Kate the first time and Sawyer the second!

Guh. This is officially one of my top three Skate vids of all time. Truly, truly fantastic.

Aislynn · Posted: Mon Jun 04, 2007 5:09 pm Post subject:

Meep! I didn't see these last comments until now, so sorry!

Jen: If anybody deserves the shirt, it's you!

charmed_charlie: Thank you so much for commenting both here and at YouTube, Charlie! Much, much appreciated! So glad you enjoyed!

AlcoholicPixie: So sorry that Badongo was being a jerk!

Anyway, woo-hoo, four-words-in-one! Score!

You know, I did try to design it so that it could be viewed as only one side or the other (though they work better together

) but I didn't know if anybody really would look at it like that!

And there are so many amazing Skate vids out there, I'm truly honored to have made your top three!

Thank you!

I also updated the links with a zshare one that was requested the other day (sorry it wasn't in time to help you, Kayla!

). Thanks again to everybody for all the wonderful comments!

OMG!!!! That was the most awesomest thing I have seen in a very long time, and most things don't get 'most awesomest' status.

The photo album style was incredible, and the song and diff clips on each side, just worked soooo well. I LOVE it! In my faves on YouTub, and I may have todownlaod this one.

How did you get the photo-album thingie btw? Is it a movie studios thing, or can I use SV 7.0 for something like that as well? Or is it completely different? Like a pic you use continuously like a watermark and jsut placed the clips inside?
