Yeah, I updated with a 38mb. I have an 80mb xvid file, but I can't get it to upload correctly.

[atthevenue.livejournal.com]

Wow, that was amazing! I've never seen a video made so well. Everything just worked so beautifully. I loved it! :D

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Yay, thank you.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Love the icon. :)

[obsessive24.livejournal.com]

Oh god, mind trip! Brain is mush. Crazy good.

May be back later when brain is not mush. In meantime let me leave you with "Whitney creates insanely good stuff, is fear"

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Mmm, brain mush is yummy. Thanks. :)

[whereistheluv.livejournal.com]

Yay! You posted here with a download. Like I said on your imeem, I wish my brain worked like yours.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

My imeem upload finished and went through, but my previous upload still hadn't come through, so it was on imeem for a few hours before I actually posted. :) Thank you, but my brain is a crazy place that no one wants to be in. :)

[taelonmahal.livejournal.com]

Is there a specific codec I need to watch this? I refuses to play on the normal windows media player and on the VLC player. :(

I watched it on Imeem, though, and it's brilliant! But I think watching it in high quality will be even better. :)

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

I know more about the interworkings of the social network of pygmy culture than I do about technology, but possibly it's the divx codec (http://www.divx.com/).

I have an 80mb xvid version, but I can't get it to upload. I've tried sendspace, megaupload, yousendit, and senduit. Do you have any uploading place suggestions?

[angeliquesg.livejournal.com]

Oooh, that was really cool! ♥

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it. :)

[aurora]

Whoa, that was beyond cool!

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[talitha78.livejournal.com]

I didn't catch this at Vividcon, but I just now watched it on the con discs, and I had to come straight away and tell you how amazing I think this vid is. Purely from a visual aspect (since I have not watched Heroes), it just completely blew me away. Everything about it is stunning: the coloring, the overlays, the timing, the musicality...Sheer perfection. Brava!!!

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

I'm on the con disc; how cool is that? Thanks bunches for coming over to give me feedback. :)

[lacrymosa-star.livejournal.com]

OMG THAT WAS AWESOME!!! Great vid!!! Daft Punk + Sylar = GOLD!!!
♥

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much.

While I was making this vid a friend directed me to watch this vid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQVEPFzkhaM) on youtube, so now I'm giving it to you.

[hollywoodgrrl.livejournal.com]

Catching up on vids! :)

Dude. Wow. Well, I should begin by saying that I don't even watch Heroes, but as this was recced on my flist I dl-ed it. And boy was it worth it! Woosh. You have such a unique style. And you choose such perfectly unique music to reflect it. This is why I love watching your vids. ;) And this one was really great. I know enough about Heroes to understand the basics of the story, but I just loved the pacing of the editing with the music, the build of it. Great job. :)

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Wow, that means a lot coming from you. I watch your vids and admire them greatly. I've been on a mashup/remix kick lately. There's something about them that I love vidding wise. I suppose it's like getting the punch of two song in one.

[bradcpu.livejournal.com]

Just watched this for the first time on the VVC set.

AUGH MY BRAIN!!!!

You are Sylar!!!!

(I think this could be my new favorite from you. And I think it could well be the best video I've seen on the VVC set.)

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I wonder why my vids about serial killers turn out the best.

[comasisters.livejournal.com]

Hey, i just love it, really and totally love your vid ..........i have no word to say how much i love it, and i find Sylar really interesting, great job ! maya

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Wow, I made you speechless. Sylar is one of the most interesting characters on Heroes. Thanks. :)

[ageless-aislynn.livejournal.com]

I've been trying to think up something hopefully semi-intelligent to say and all I've got is: Dude, that rocked! :D

So much for any hopes of semi-intelligence, lol! ;) Excellent editing and use of stock footage to give it such texture! And that song really just shouldn't have worked and it COMPLETELY did! And best of all... it's Sylar! Yay! ;) Great work! ♥!

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Dude, that rocked!
Works for me! Thanks.

[leviathan101.livejournal.com]

Wow that's very, very impressive! Very nice overlays and quick cuts. Great work. I can't imagine how long it took you. I made a Heroes overview video of Season 1. Check it out in my journal if you like.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanks. The part that took forever was taking the hundreds of textures from stock and other textures. Cool, I'll have to check out your vid when I'm less tired. :)

[kuwdora.livejournal.com]

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

OMG, that is too awesome. I'm worthy of CAPSLOCK and huge font.

[chasarumba.livejournal.com]

Wow, your use of textures and layering of images in this one...it's just so freakin' intricate and ARRESTING. Amazing work. Rather than being a character study that stands on the outside looking in, this really feels to me (because of the visual complexity and the tone of the song) like it actually takes place inside Sylar's head.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

like it actually takes place inside Sylar's head.
That's exactly what I was going for with the snowglobe effect near the beginning. Because I think Sylar's brain is a weird snowglobe with lots of blood.

Thanks for the feedback. :)

[sol-se.livejournal.com]

I just scrolled through the comments here because I thought there's no way I've never commented on this. That just can't be, because I am so in love with this video. Well, I just watched this *again* this morning. I LOVE THIS VIDEO! And I should have told you that months ago! Bad me. This video breaks my brain...But in a good way.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

I love it when I break people's brains. :)

[kuwdora.livejournal.com]

O hay, you. I was re-reading some of the comments (including my initial capslock shriek of LOVE which I still have, but that comment already messed up the formatting of this journal page that I ought to leave the squee be for a little while) and I noticed you mentioned to someone that you had a really high quality version of this vid? I have a copy of the 38MB one on my iMac (which I haven't transferred over to my Macbook yet) -- but.. if there's a high quality version of this would it be possible to get a copy of it? Maybe? Yes? the WMV file never played that well on my Mac in the first place. But you said you had issues with getting it to upload -- of course this was month ago, maybe things have changed?

Cause...this is like... the vid that made me want to vid Sylar and if I can get it all big and shinier, then I really will be your vid bitch forever (oh, I am so serious about that, toooo).

*makes puppy eyes*

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

:) I love that you're squee could not be contained by the page format. Next time I'm on super high speed I'll upload the hugemongous file.

[turtlespeaks.livejournal.com]

Kuwdora linked me this, and I have to say THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING SYLAR VID I HAVE EVER SEEN! :D

Do you think i could get the high res version off you someitme! :D

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[kronos999.livejournal.com]

I just stumbled across this on a recs page. Wow. Goes back to watch it again.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Cool. Thanks :)

[wiccanslyr.livejournal.com]

I would like to see this in the higher quality. Any hope of it being reuploaded?

Thanks.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Yep, uploaded 30mb xvid avi via mediafire (http://www.mediafire.com/?13ihmilgtnz).

[pandora-remix.livejournal.com]

Hi, I recently lost all of my fanvids in a computer crash recently. While I managed to get quite a few back, the download link s to this one have expired. I was just wondering if there was any hope for a reupload of this, I loved it and would hate to lose it forever. I understand if it isn't possible, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks.
