rl, vid commentary comm, and birfday

[kiki_miserychic]

I started back at college and this is my last semester before I graduate with my Bachelor's Degree (yay accomplishment). It pretty much means the only thing I'm going to be doing for a while is going to classes and student teaching.

I've been meaning to make a post about vid_commentary, but never actually did it. I posted commentary for charmax's multifandom (Battlestar Galactica, Terminator: Sarah Connor, Terminator movies) vid, Unnatural Selection. Also, thuviaptarth posted commentary for my Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles vid, Ding! Dong!

I'm considering participating in Challenge 2: Combined Vidder & Viewer, but I can't figure out what I want to do for it. The idea is a comparison of point of view from creator and audience on a vid, which sounds like it could be incredible and enlightening.

Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes and the super cute virtual gifts (nursedarry, bop_radar, talitha78, and sol_se).

The studying part is mainly over! I'm student teaching, so no final exam per se, just bunches of evaluations. :)

My 3 week class is what's taking up my time, so I'll have more time after that's over. If you'd like to do The Fall vid with me, I'd totally be up for it. :)

You would? Are you sure you wouldn't like to do Bale Out? Don't feel pressured because I asked... I'm totally going to write commentary on it at some point regardless of whether you do. Promise!

I'm not doing Bale Out commentary for a while. I'm not sure I have enough to say about the vid, Once Upon A Time, so much as I have stuff to say about the movie, which doesn't fit the challenge. Seem how you're relaxed about it, is it ok it I don't do the challenge? I wouldn't have much to say, lol.

No prob at all! (And there is so much to say about that movie, yes, that I can see how it could easily veer off into that.)

I know my tendency to go into tangents and the commentary would devolve into something very not what it's supposed to be. Mainly because I don't have defined thinky thoughts on the vid itself. It'd be mostly about the nature of storytelling and interaction.

Mmm, true... and knowing my love for the source I could get derailed into that as well. Wise rethink there! ;) I love what the film has to say about storytelling so much.
