laurashapiro, I managed to get a workable large-window, manageable file size, Divx avi file of my new vid, and finally, after many cranky emails with the annoying new web hosts, get this vid uploaded. I may still tweak some settings and try for a less jerky QT file, or maybe even give 3ivx a try at a future date and see if that will improve image quality, but overall, outside of some stuttering on the action scenes, I'm pleased with how this turned out and especially pleased to be able to make it available in a more viewable format. It's not perfect, especially in movement scenes, but different players may help that. In the long run it was only 6 more MB than a smaller window, so I didn't make the smaller size available, because at that point, it doesn't seem that much worse to just DL the extra.
Anyways. The vid is called Loaded Gun, the song is by Hednoize, and the fandom is of course The Fast and the Furious. I know no one is interested, but I will post later about my thoughts while making it and the process, more for my own amusement than anyone else's, I'm sure. The DL is 29.1MB, and this one is MILES better in VLC than viewing in a regular QuickTime window, so follow the links on the vid page and grab VLC media player if you haven't already. VLC really brings out the vibrant colors, smooths the jerky action scenes, and pixelates the fast edits way less. I don't normally attach lyrics, but there is a link there for some if you need them -- whoever transcribed lyrics and has passed them around the Net was, IMO, utterly demented and hearing impaired, so I've provided them here since I don't want people to get mistaken ideas about what the vid is saying.
If you have any troubles DLing, please let me know. I had to use a different method (mutters darkly about the new web hosts) this time so I'm not sure how well everything uploaded. As always, feedback of any kind is welcome.
