Sister Awake - Vid - Boone and Shannon

[kiki_miserychic]

Vid Title: Sister Awake and smaller version
Vidder: misery chic, miserychic47@hotmail.com
Artist: The Tea Party
Category: Episode vid for “Hearts and Minds” and partial character study.
Characters: Boone main, with Shannon and a little Locke
Pairings: Boone/Shannon
Summary: I bet my aunt in the second week of “Lost” that they were doing it and I had to make a vid. Boone and Shannon. Making out, running in jungle, conning, dying. Love the perfect lyrics of “Sister Awake” by The Tea Party, When this beautiful cult of desire / Has left you for dead / Isolation will cradle the lies / Of things left unsaid / What will it take / Sister awake.

It says the link is invalid :-\

[cliodna-bright.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think you posted the link in the address bar instead of the link that they gave you, hehe.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

All fixed.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Fixed, I pasted a space or something silly.

[anythingbutgrey.livejournal.com]

you = awesome

[mrsotown.livejournal.com]

I think I love you

[xkatjafx.livejournal.com]

Like it : ) And I'm not even into Shannon/Boone *g*

Great song choice. I think I would have cut the song it a bit, because it felt a bit too long at the end, but the lyrics fit the pairing perfectly.

I really love the part where the music picks up and Boone saves Shannon. Very well done.

Btw, I caught a few "misplaced" pictures, artifacts, whatever you call them. I don't know which program you use for cutting, but if it's possible you might want to check all your cuts in detail for lonely wrong pics - next time : )

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanx.

I was so in love with the song, but maybe I should have used a shorter version.

I thought I was being cool having split second clips of Locke in certain places, but it doesn't work like I wanted it to.

:) Scanned your journal and I can't wait for you to finish your manifesto. I'm working on an epic Boone/Shannon, it's 20 pages and I can't get myself in gear to finish it and get it beta-ed

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, that can be arranged. :)

[aaricia.livejournal.com]

Says the link's not available :(

[mrsotown.livejournal.com]

Okay, I've watched it now (I left it to download while I went to school and did a 3hr exam) and LOVED it.

Soooo great.


I love you even more now.

[maeve-cailean.livejournal.com]

Same goes for me--dead link.

[anythingbutgrey.livejournal.com]

hee, I can't wait to finish it either *laughs*

OH! I can't wait to read that when it's done. *g*

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Good to know I can ease the pain of a 3 hour exam.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Fixed.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Now the link is as dead as Shannon. [re: not dead] I have no sense of humor.

[aaricia.livejournal.com]

Yay!

So, I've watched, googled the lyrics and DAMN! That song is, like, perfect :) LOVE the vid.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanx.

As soon as I heard the song I did the same and I had to do it.

[ceramicstars.livejournal.com]

The link's dead again. :(

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Fixed. Again.

[ceramicstars.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanx :)

[fuckyeah.livejournal.com]

How big is it, because if it's under 5 mb I'll hang it out on dial-up if you could reload it again please.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

It's 45.4 MB.

[fuckyeah.livejournal.com]

Darn, my poor laptop with it's dial up can't handle that. ;_;

[kataclysmic.livejournal.com]

Feh, the link has died and I would have liked to see the vid.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Reuploaded.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

I'm going to upload a smaller version in a day or two, so I'll get back to you then. :)

[kataclysmic.livejournal.com]

Loved it! Thought the song was very fitting, and I loved the way the action matched the tempo in certain portions.

One thing I've found with vidding, however, if to not include to many clips of people speaking (unless you include the audio for these clips) because it doesn't look as good as when the character's mouths aren't moving, if you see what I mean.

Anyway, loved it. Thanks for sharing :o)

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'm going to keep that in mind. It does look akward.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

A 2.05 MB zipped smaller version (http://s3.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3TADT73BBCWRN1AC7O3K5J5CE1).

[fuckyeah.livejournal.com]

*_* I love you. I'll have to download later on tonight when I'm not at school. :P

Thank you very much!

It says the file is invalid...I really want to see the video, I hope you can fix it. *pout*

I watched the smaller version (I would like to note that you could probably go up to 6mb as a smaller version for the dial up users, as I vid myself, and that's my general size, and never has recieved any complaints).

This was *so* good. Seriously. The song was perfect, and I'm not just saying that because I have a big music-on for the band. They have another song that would probably work wonders on the Shannon/Boone, but I'm blanking on the title at the moment.

Having Locke in there was slightly confusing, but I can tell it was part of the narrative process, so, you know, when I have more sleep, I'm sure it will be much clearer to me.

My favorite segment had to be Boone cutting himself free frantically just as the music begins to become frantic, that was some wonderful timing.

And a sidenote, not a comment on the vid, that 'relieved' always gets my blood up, even though, logically, I know that doesn't mean he wants her to die, and that to be in love with someone for that long, especially your sister, faux or not, it's going to become a wee bit twisted.

Still, I swear, I wanted to throw big rocks at him.

Or tie him up again. Either would have worked.

Great vid! Now I need a Boone/Shannon icon, damn you.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Wow, thanks.

I was wondering what the norm was for sizing. Thanks.

I'm majorly in love with The Tea Party. I think I know which song you're talking about, but I don't feel like digging up the title. :)

Thinking about it, the Locke part didn't come through in the end, which was a mistake.

I think the relieved comment wasn't strickly a "want her to die" comment, more of a "don't have to live a lie" comment.

[kajungirl81.livejournal.com]

Would you mind reuploading, please? I'd really like to see. ;)

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

No prob, which size would you prefer, 2.14 MB or 45.7 MB? Hmmm, I should prolly do something towards the middle.

[kajungirl81.livejournal.com]

I'll take the big one!

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Reuploaded here (http://s40.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1HJTQZKPB5PI41LYKEQ4NWA18A), as well as up top.

[kajungirl81.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! ;)
