Vid Title: Holding Out For a Hero

Artist: Bonnie Tyler

Fandom: The Mighty Boosh

Summary: Vince/Howard, even though I started it as a general vid rather than a shippy one. The first verse is Howard’s point of view, second is Vince’s.

Rated: U, same as the show

File Size: 16.6 MB

Feedback: Oh, by the way, feedback does not suck, so… yeah. Leave some bitches. Uh… nice bitches. (Here’s where I offend people before they get the reference).

Notes: Same vid as before, only with better quality, larger source, and a few stray frames have been removed. Two new teeny-tiny clips that are more interesting than the ones that were originally there. Preeeeety souce! Enjoy.

The YouTube link has been removed because I got a note from YouTube saying they’d had a C&D from BabyCow productions. *le sigh*

You can still download the old version here:

This vid has been remastered, using higher quality clips and editing the bits that I was never particularly happy with. Things have changed a little, and it is now one vid instead of two. See below for download details.

Vid Title: November Rain

Artist: Guns N’ Roses

Fandom: The Mighty Ducks

Clips from: D1, D2, D3 and Don’t Cry and November Rain by Guns N’ Roses

Summary: This is an AU vid, in which Casey and Bombay were married and Charlie is their son. This vid (or vids) deals with their break-up and Bombay’s self-destruction that follows it, not to mention Charlie’s reaction. See the Notes for more details.

File Size: See below (by the download links)

Format: Real and Windows Media

Notes: I can’t exactly remember what my thought process was, but I eventually challenged myself to make a video based on Without You by Del James (bear with me on this), using only footage from The Mighty Ducks, and the Without You music videos by Guns N’ Roses (for the non-rabid GN’R fans, that’s Don’t Cry, November Rain and Estranged).

The story of Without You is ultimately about the self-destruction of a man who appears to have everything, but still manages to screw it up. Theoretically Gordon could be that man, he’s rich, he’s well educated, he’s loved, and he could screw it up easily and lose everything. This vid tried to explore that. I have had to use footage from Don’t Cry and November Rain by Guns N’ Roses because, obviously, Casey and Gordon never got married in the Ducks fandom (but did in my mind, I love that pairing), and so forth. Any questions, hop over to the forums and ask there. I’ll answer in great detail, I assure you.

If the vid didn’t make sense, try reading the commentary.

Feedback: Always welcome. If you liked it, tell me. If it didn’t make sense, let me know, your opinion will not break me. I have never actually had any feedback on this vid, despite there being over 300 downloads. Was it really that bad?

New Version:
YouTube link removed, thanks to a scary Cease & Desist from BabyCow about my Boosh vids.

Vid Title: Save Yourself

Artist: Stabbing Westward

Fandom: The Lost Boys

Summary: Michael and Star. Not exactly a love story.

Rated: 15, same as the movie

File Size: 18.1 MB in Real, or 9.8 MB in Windows Media Player

Format: Real and Windows, but please don’t upload this video elsewhere. It’s such bad manners.

If you’ve dropped by to have a look at the music vids here, I’d have to suggest that you watch In The Hall of the Mountain King (Needful Things), Holding Out for a Hero, and Pump Up The Volume as your first few downloads. They’re my most recent, and also the best I’ve done. I’ve gotten better at vidding over time, so the further back you go, the more amaturish the vids are. That said, Bad Reputation is much better than Every Day I Love You Less and Less.

Something that baffles me is why November Rain Part 1 has 65 downloads, but Part 2 only has 29. Do people only watch the first half and not care about the second half? I really should have edited the song better, so it was all one video. I think maybe that can be my next project.

New video, this time to Needful Things.

Vid Title: In The Hall of the Mountain King [commentary]

Artist: Sconosciuto/Edvard Greig

Fandom: Needful Things

Summary: A very short summary of the film, set to music? I think that’s the best I can do.

Rated: R – same as the source material, for a certain doggie scene. My apologies.

File Size: 18.7 MB – it’s very pretty quality.

Format: Real. Why? Because there’s hundreds of copies of Hero all over the net, thanks to YouTube, and I like to keep track of my vids – also, Real is far easy to deal with than Quicktime. I should have chosen this format years ago.

Notes: Again, I state this vid is rated R because of a quick flash of nastiness. It’s not on there long, so I can’t imagine people will be disturbed, but don’t say you weren’t warned.

Vid Title: Pump Up The Volume

Artist: MARRS

Fandom: The Mighty Boosh

Summary: Dancing, lots of it.

Rated: U, same as the show

File Size: 20.2 MB – again, a large file because it’s in Quicktime.

Format: Quicktime. Why? Because there’s hundreds of copies of Hero all over the net, thanks to YouTube, and I like to keep track of my vids.

Dedication and Thanks: Again to Maestro, who threatened to kick my arse if I didn’t finish this soon. This vid has been on my computer for months – even before Hero – waiting for the final 18 seconds to be put on. I have now done this. Enjoy.

Notes: There is no disclaimer on the vid itself. I feel bad about this, but cannot face rendering it again (once you see it, you’ll know which five-second segment took over an hour to render). I own nothing, not the song, not the clips, nothing.

Artist: The Kaiser Chiefs

Fandom: The Mighty Boosh

Summary: When I vidded Hero, I found it really hard to find shippiness, and thought to myself that it must be so much easier to do a fighting vid. This vid proves me wrong. Muchas fighting between Vince and Howard. Once again, I aimed for comedy, and once again, I’m not sure I got there.

Rated: U, same as the show

File Size: 27.4 MB – this one’s huge because I used large clips. I will be uploading the re-mastered Hero vid soon too.

Format: Quicktime. Why? Because there’s hundreds of copies of Hero all over the net, thanks to YouTube, and I like to keep track of my vids.

Dedication and Thanks: Maestro, queen of all that is flamey and penguiny. Her *hard stares* really got me through this. The fear of Maestro was far stronger than the urge to leave this alone and come back to it later.

Notes: Oh, by the way, feedback does not suck, so… yeah. Leave some bitches. Uh… nice bitches.

Vid Title: November Rain [commentary]

Artist: Guns N’ Roses

Fandom: The Mighty Ducks

Clips from: D1, D2, D3 and Don’t Cry and November Rain by Guns N’ Roses

Summary: This is an AU vid, in which Casey and Bombay were married and Charlie is their son. This vid (or vids) deals with their break-up and Bombay’s self-destruction that follows it, not to mention Charlie’s reaction. See the Notes for more details.

A Repetition of the Plea on Built This Way: Please give me some form of feedback. I feel that Carla and adamandcharliedude are overstretched as my only vid-feedbackers. Come on, tell me if you loved it, hated it, whatever. Just let them have a break from being the only people to comment!

Vid Title: Ducks Behaving Badly

Song Title: Bad Reputation

Artist: Joan Jett

Fandom: The Mighty Ducks

Summary: Just as the title says, it’s Ducks behaving badly.

Rated: PG for a little violence

File Size: 12.6 MB

Thanks/Dedication: To Carla

Notes: Carla asked for me to vid to this song. I love this song, but lyrically it didn’t fit. So I just let violence happen in time with the beat. Oh, and a little bit of a stripping Portman crept in there. Portman rocks. I like it. I think it’s my most entertaining so far.

Further Notes: There appears to be a stray frame around the 1 minute mark. I have no idea why this is, because it’s actually in the middle of a clip, and going frame-by-frame in Adobe, I still can’t figure out what it is. *shrugs* It’s a phantom flicker.

Even Further Notes: Please give me some form of feedback. I feel that Carla and adamandcharliedude are overstretched as my only vid-feedbackers. Come on, tell me if you loved it, hated it, whatever. Just let them have a break from being the only people to comment!
