30 Days of Vidding: Day 29

Day 29: What is your current project or projects?

When I clipped for "Tightrope" last January and February, I also clipped for another Buffy vid focusing on Giles & Buffy's relationship, mostly from Giles' POV.  It was initially mostly a feels vid concept -- I love their relationship so so so much -- but then while I was clipping I read a really interesting essay by Angeria (and unless I'm misremembering the name and google isn't doing its usual job of figuring out what I mean for me, this person has deleted their account, sadface) someone whose name I don't remember!  Gah now it's gonna bug me all day.  It was about Giles and his evolution from a patriarchal figure to...well, I don't remember exactly what they said and I'm not sure I totally agreed with it anyway.  But it had a lot of great insights into Buffy's (and other young female characters') effect on Giles and made me want to show some of that as well.  I jotted down tons of notes in my vidding journal, and most of them still make sense to me!

So, after making "Tightrope" and getting wrist injuries and having other ideas I sort of forgot that I actually already had a vid (or two) worth of clips all clipped and ready!  So my next project is going to be to make that vid.  It feels like such a treat that I already clipped for it, and they're just sitting there ready to go.

sickness

Wow, it seems like half my reading list is sick right now.  Which makes sense, what with winter and stress and all.  But it's summer here, and things have been decidedly low stress in my life, and I got sick too!   Boo.  It's the hottest day I've seen in several years -- though I'm going to have to get used it it, I'm told -- and I've got a mild fever and some intestinal woes.  Last night I had the bizarre experience of being bundled up and freezing cold even though it was 21C outside and a bit warmer inside.

On the bright side: I'm too sick to go to work, but not too sick to vid. :D

Well-wishes to everyone!
