You're a humming live wire in your killing clothes

Because I didn't have enough on my plate with trying to finish this @#%$&$% story that is now at 16,000 words when it was supposed to just be stupid fluffy nonsense (writing is finished, but it needs a lot of editing), and work, and animals, and health things, and getting ready for Vividcon, now I have started a Natasha vid that I would like to finish and post before I leave for Chicago.

What is wrong with me? And it's not even the kind of song that people usually want for vids about her; it's quiet and melancholy. I'm an idiot. Kill me now and put me out of my misery.

I am 110% excited for this vid, pre or post-VVC. And "it's not even the kind of song that people usually want for vids about her" isn't much of an argument since a) you're the vidder, and b) exactly how many Natasha vids are there? Not a whole lot.

Wishing you luck with everything that's on your plate. Just take care to not stretch yourself too thin <3

I watched a lot of vids for Natasha on YouTube the other day, and it seems like they all use a certain type of song--faster paced or very beat heavy, almost always a very girl power tone or dark theme or something. I never found anything like this song. (Of course, there were at least four vids to Fight Song, so...) And of course, I'm also trying to separate it out from my Club Vivid vid, which is a ladies of MCU vid that's heavy on Peggy and Nat... ::bangs head on desk::

[goodbyebird]

Exactly, they tend to be asskicking girl power vids(which are awesome yay) but tend to not lean towards much of a narrative/message beyond that. So I'm very much looking forward to what you're thinking :)

And I knew the MCU would feature heavily in the VVC show, but super stoked to learn at last one vid will be ladies heavy. YAY. I hope you all have the best time <3

This hobby of ours can be so exasperating.

Preach.

Good luck vidding and finishing your story!!

(Now I am intrigued about what you have planned for a Natasha vid...)

[gwyn]

Oh, it's yet another the National song...I've been in such a mood for them for almost the whole year, it seems. I go through periods like this every once in a while. It's just very quiet and very soft.

YOU'RE DOING A TASHA VID? Dude you could make a Tasha vid to 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' and I would be right there, because I'm sure it would somehow be amazing. And a quiet melancholy song for Tasha would be a great change of pace, for one thing!

[gwyn]

I dunno, it seems like all of the ones I've seen on YT were very much of a kind and...I mean, my vids don't really get much of an audience so it's not a big deal, really, I just feel weird making it because it seems so wildly different from everything out there.

YES NAT VID!

Now that I have more actual time, and managed to do TWO betas for Not Primetime AND get them back to the writers in a timely fashion, do you need a set of eyes on your 16k of OOPS I GREW A PLOT? (I have no idea what that feels like. None. Certainly not 57k of ideas of what that feels like at the moment.)

[gwyn]

Well, I'd probably want to turn it around really fast and I have a lot of editing still to do, but I have to admit I would like to have someone look at it. It feels very lame and pathetic to me.

[minim_calibre]

I am at your disposal!

[ranalore]

I am so excited for both this vid and this story I cannot even tell you.

[gwyn]

Oh god, don't be, no. They're both going to be so disappointing if you are. Save yourself.

[geckoholic]

It's always the "oh I'll just start this tiny thing" fics that grow into monsters, right? ARGH. XD And ohh, I, for one, can't wait for the Natasha vid!!

You love what you love, to paraphrase Prince Lir.

And we love you.
