Hindsight 20/20
Jan. 18th, 2012 03:22 pmAbout two years ago, nearly three now, I made an epic vid nearly 7 minutes long covering the history of horror. I think I showed it to, like, five people, but never released it. At the time, I had some pretty high-minded ideas of what I wanted to do with my vidding and what I made didn't live up to those expectations. I eventually decided to switch songs and approaches, but I never really tackled either of those.
I ran across the vid in a folder today, randomly, and watched it. And it... really kind of works. It could stand to be tighter and better focused, but it does some things I've not really managed in other vids and it flows pretty well.
So I'll probably be releasing it in the next few months, to coincide with something I can't talk about just yet that's related to my website. I need to clean it up a bit -- there's interlacing out the wazoo and a few clips have weird watermarks on them, so I need to find better source. I only hope I had the foresight not to delete my Final Cut files.
So look for that in the coming months.
Also, thanks to
bradcpu who told me *all* of this almost exactly two years ago and I didn't listen to him.
Edit: I managed to locate the Final Cut project and it's completely intact, clips and all. WIN! I was worried I was going to have to reconstruct some of this.
