fic recs with vid and book covers

[kiki_miserychic]

I realized I'm terrible with words, so I started making book covers for the fics I enjoy as a form of feedback. I also made a little vidlet for one as well.

FIC RECS:

millylicious's The Music Box - Sylar/Claire, Nathan/Claire(ish) of Heroes. (Broken things need fixing.) -Download link for vid.

kuwdora's Through the Gates of Pandaemonium - Sylar/Mohinder of Heroes. (Abyssus abyssum invocat (Hell invokes Hell).)

dollsome's Lines - Sierra/Victor of Dollhouse. (Victor, Sierra, and crayons.)

raphaela667's the ups and downs of you - Kirk/Spock of the Star Trek Reboot. (Starfleet first officers did not regress to childhood without at least submitting prior warning to their commanding officers. They'd established that after the whole Pon Farr mess last year. There were rules about Vulcan biology and scaring the hell out of Jim now. This had to be in violation of at least three of them.)

beccatoria's The name of this story is your name. - Caprica of Battlestar Galactica. (What if Caprica didn't actually die. Ever.)

I wouldn't have to read the fic if the video had content. Structure, storytelling, meaning, theme, and pacing are missing from your vidding. I don't think you comprehend vidding at all from your videos. The basics of vidding are the traditional techniques that you use to show your theme.

That's your opinion, but I will say that it's rude to comment anonymously on a journal about a vidlet that's based on a fic that you haven't read that's a thank you and rec to a friend. It's not in a vid post, it's in a RECS post. Who made the rule that vids have to stand alone? I based the vidlet on a fic, I don't think you can talk about lack of content until you know what the content even is. But since you don't understand that, I have to say that I don't respect your opinion on the matter. I never said that the vidlet was meant to stand on its own. It's a freaking rec for the fic and a thank you to a friend, so let's leave at that.

If you think those things are missing from my vids, then fine. I know they're not because I have themes and meanings behind all of my vids. I just don't go around screaming them from rooftops and making a big deal about the nature of my vids. If you get it, you get it. If you don't, then you don't. I'm not going to sit there and spit words at the viewer to explain what I did.

I don't care about traditional techniques. I will vid what I want to vid and I resent the implication that I don't understand vidding. I think you don't understand vidding, at least the vidding I do.
