an awesome fanvid I liked that came from vividcon2012:

Ramalama (Once Upon a Time)

Oh, show I miss you. I'm not too fannish where Once Upon a Time is considered for some strange reason (well that's not quite true - the reason is that the canon source is pretty awesome in of it self and I don't have to indulge quite as much in fannish works except for Belle/Rumples fic and a random end-of-series re-imaginings that I stumble upon).

the Fandoms as relationships meme: )

This week AA had two spoilers for Greek:

Question: Got any scoop on the March 7 series finale of Greek?! —@TurboMeg via Twitter
Ausiello: Stock up on Puffs Plus Lotion (with the scent of Vicks) ’cause you’re going to be bawling till your tear ducts dry out and your nose falls off. I screened the episode over the weekend and I have to give props to the creative team for ending on an emotionally satisfying high note. Highlights: There’s one (or is it two?) long overdue hookup, a pitch perfect bookend-y scene between sibs Rusty and Casey, and an answer to one of the show’s biggest mysteries: What the hell is Cappie’s real name? (If you guessed ******* **** **** *****, congrats, you were right!)

Question: Will Frannie appear on Greek before the show ends? —Amy
Ausiello: Yes, the witch (played once again by Tiffany Dupont) touches down in the penultimate episode on Feb. 28 and immediately extends an olive branch to her still-steaming-mad ZBZ sisters. And this particular olive branch has a name: Justin Bieber. (BTW, Cappie’s reaction to seeing Frannie again is priceless.)

Kinda ambivalent about Frannie.

And a TVD scoop:

Question: Got any scoop on The Vampire Diaries? —Ellie
Ausiello:
Thursday’s episode is not to be missed. It boasts two deaths, one super-romantic Matt/Caroline scene, and — in the hour’s final minutes — a doozy of a twist.

yay! Matt/Caroline!! I missed the last two recentish eps but hope I can get caught up before tomorrow.

Also, finally finished and posted a SGA vid for [livejournal.com profile] stargateland's episode vid challenge where you could only use clips from one episode to make the video from. This would be my third one? I think. The second SGA vid we shan't talk about because it was horrible and it'd be best to just forget it exists.

Short summary Someone is missing Atlantis (aka Sam the whale's return).

the embed thingy never works for some reason - please go here.

(If it doesn't work, please tell me because the first time I tried to view it, it didn't work for me - well the audio worked fine but there weren't any visuals to go with the audio. It is actually a miracle this got posted online AT ALL. So yeah. >: I sometimes hate technology so much.)

Well, here it is, the thing I've been working on for two days. I actually started learning how to make a fanvid because of a current challenge in my [livejournal.com profile] stargateland comm, except this isn't a Stargate vid because I wanted to first go through a dry run, I'd guess you'd say, before I made the real thing to be entered and counted for points (and also I have to go hunt down some Stargate Atlantis clips, seriously lacking those).

Fandom Degrassi: The Next Generation

There's a few things I could've changed and done better, but it's just a test to see if I can make a fanvid. Critiques are welcome though. :D I also wanted it to be a generic Holly J./Declan fanvid but I think a few themes sneaked in there.

- wheeeeeeeeeee!!!!! in the process of making my first fanvid!! There's just so much to learn! A few things I did learn so far: (1) cutting and placing relevant clips is apparently an art form in itself, (2) sometimes the mute button will not work T__T and sometimes not even the cutting button will work right (for me at least)!!! (3) I still have no idea if I can move the clips around in the specific order that I want, haven't found any way to do that, so now the clips are just being played in the order that they're dropped. (4) It takes a really, really LONG time to create clips from one episode/media clip. Like an hour and twenty minute long movie, it takes about 86 minutes to create clips you can drop in your fanvid, and for a 22 minute show, it takes about 22 minutes. Which translates to a lot of down time before I can fiddle around with the clips and get to the actually making of a fanvid (because when you create clips, it freezes Windows Movie Maker so that you can't collapse the window or do anything else on WWM until the process of creating clips is done).

- it's going to be horrible! but despite that, I'm sooo freakin' excited!!

- also had my interview this morning for volunteering at the hospital. It wasn't like a real interview interview because there are so many positions you can work in and so few volunteers. It's not like a job where you have more than one person vying for that position. It was more of a meet-and-greet sort of interview - but still, nerve-wrecking. (And the lady doing the interview did ask me questions like 'why do you want to volunteer at MMC?' but mostly it was me signing a few papers and her trying to pencil in when I can volunteer - because my college schedule is crazy).

- so thinking about volunteering and still going to the part-time job I already have at the library and going to class...things will be super crazy for the foreseeable future and I will not have much time for other things. (Other things being like land comms and general tomfoolery.) Super depressing. :(

MEMES~!!!~

* Ask me my Top Five Whatevers. Fannish or literary or otherwise. Any top fives. Doesn't matter what, really! Fandoms, books fics I might get around to writing one day, characters in my fandoms, ideal holiday destinations, goals for the future, celebrity crushes, books I wish would be made into movies, OTPs, anti-OTPs (which I think I mean least fave pairing), love songs. And I will answer them all in a new post (or in comments).
