    May 2012 contest submission. Contains spoilers for BBC's Sherlock through Season 2 (one week ahead of the US's current point.) Somewhat shippy -- but canonically so!

     Back from London! Thanks for the kind comments, all! (Yay, Expert vidder status.)

     I agree, loved your use of the song. I always enjoy vids that keep up with the beat use and lyric use was great. I don't watch the show but it was fun to watch your vid showcasing their relationship. It got me more intrigued by the show actually, I might consider watching it (I've only watched the latest ep). Great work Kate!

     Great job, Kate! Nice use of the song and great lyric interpretation, too.

     Cool video, Kate!

     Great job! I liked your lyric use, especially the part about 'spare me the punch line'.

     Oh I'm still on a steep learning curve with Vegas. I hardly have time to do several vids in a row, so I seem to forget half of what I learn in between vids!

    Faster songs are so much easier for beat use. Though, I don't think all vids need as much beat use. It's so up to each vidder individually as to what they like. In-clip beat use is also very effective, like your punch in this vid.

    [Um, sorry I'm doing that annoying throw an acronym out there and don't explain it thing. Bad Lizzie! ETV = Expanding The Verse (google it if interested). It's a similar forum to this one, because it's based on the now gone SVS (Supernatural Video Station) which was initially based on this Lost forum. I'd never been over here until recently though, because I don't vid Lost and only watched the first season. Now that this one is also multi-fandom, I'm expanding my horizons. ]

     Hey there!

    Ha, it wasn't a subtle hint -- or subtle at all, really.

    But thanks -- glad you approve! Yeah, flashing was frequent, but breaking up on the slower verses felt a bit too choppy, so I tried to get a happy medium. I'll have to try zooms at some point. Working with a faster song for the next vid though, so the quick cuts are easier, anyway.

    I've only done my last... five? six? videos in Vegas, so it's a learning curve, anyway. And Jellyfish is a great band for only having two CDs. The song jumped out at me for the show, so...

    What's ETV?

     Heya, so I came looking after you mentioned "your vid" in your comments on my vid and I found it.

    I love how, despite so few episodes, all the Sherlock vids are so different. It says something great about the show, the way it can be interpretted in so many ways! Really different song choice here too. There were some cute little beat use moments like the *punch* line and Watson's little nod at the grave at the end there and I like your playing with the colouring!

    I like your use of the flash, but I think IMO maybe it was a tad over-used to mark the beat. Maybe you could also use a few more clip changes on the beat or zooms. Zooming is fun in Vegas! I have a few vids where I went zoom nuts. Not that I'd recommend going that far!

    Catch you around the boards. I'm loving this place already. It's similar to ETV, but bigger!

     Thanks, Nikki, glad you enjoyed it! You should totally watch (but then you'd have to wait until Sunday or be spoiled by this, heh)...

     I've never seen this show but I adore your coloring!! You always do a great job with interpreting the lyrics too. I'm sure if I watched the show I'd get it even more But it was still a fun watch!!
