It is done!

The vidding project that ate my life and brain lately is officially done.


(Click on the pic to get to my vid page for download)

Song: "Advertising Space" by Robbie Williams (from "Intensive Care") -> Lyrics

Fandom: X-Files

Character: The Cigarette-Smoking Man, with a fair amount of Krycek, Jeffrey Spender and the Mulders around.

Spoilers: All through seasons 1-7 and 9

Dedication: Thanks a lot to my husband, who was extremely supportive and interested in this vid. But of course, he had to as he's to blame for my whole X-Files interest :)

Remark: It's intentional that there's no text in the vid - X-Files was the first (only?) series that didn't display the episode titles when broadcasting the episodes :) Made me wonder quite a while if I was so blind or my DVDs wrecked up.

Things improved in comparison to older projects: I used freshly ripped, uncompressed DVD source, and a WAV directly generated from CD. Also made a long episode list with marks for important characters and events.

New problem: Getting the large output into a computer-suited, downloadable format. Tried my utmost to get the Multipass function of DivX6.4 to work, but ended always without video output...? (If anyone knows a solution, please tell me!)

Absolutely awesome! Loved it and your choice of music is very fitting. Well done!

Awww, so happy you liked it! *blushes* Thank you!

P.S. Do you know a good place to snatch a Mulder/Krycek icon...?

[biani.livejournal.com]

Yes of course! A few people on krycek_lives http://community.livejournal.com/krycek_lives/ regularly post Krycek and M/K icons to the community. Just sift through the latest posts and you should find some.

Thank you, I found two and will join the community too :)

It´s a cool community, albeit a little quiet at the moment :-(.

This was totally awesome! I am unfamiliar with the song, but it was so well suited to the images. Fabulous!

[syredronning.livejournal.com]

Thank you! *bounce* Happy you liked it :)))))))))

The song was a big hit in Europe this summmer, but I know that Robbie Williams, who's a top star here, never really made it over the Atlantic.

Excellent video! Such wonderful quality. The atmosphere is quite evokative.

Ha! She did it :) And I am sooo happy with the result. The ultimate right pictures for the right song. I never thought I could feel with the CSM, but the vid brings all the essential moments right to the point.
