Last Chance Power Driiiiiiivvveeee.....
Nov. 22nd, 2014 05:04 pmI'm not exactly looking forward to the end of another year. All it means is dealing with regrets and making a whole new list of things to fail at.
I went a little... nuts last week. I usually spend my weekends watching MST3K, and one day, I ended up watching Master Ninja 1, an episode I avoid because, eww, crap TV series mascarading as a movie? Pass.
Watching it, though, gave me an idea for a fan video: splicing clips of Supernatural into the opening host segment, in which they talk about American muscle cars.
I spent most of this past week trying to make it, and most of my waking hours obsessing over it. It's always a bad idea when I want to make a fanvid, and doubly so when it distracts me from work and life. My computer hated it; it kept complaining that it was too old to deal with video editing. My SuperDrive hated it, refusing to read any of the DVDs I got specifically for this video.
On the other hand, it definitely reinforced my admiration for AMV and fanvid makers. All movie makers, really. I didn't really get how hard it was before trying to stitch together a movie for the first time.
I made it mostly to post on Tumblr, but a friend suggested I put it on Youtube as well.
... At least that's one less thing on my "shit to do eventually" list.
