damkiannaSo! I was gone not because anything happened, just because I was feeling guilty - this time, because of how long it's been taking me to remaster Dynamite now that I have clean copies of the episodes. (Reclipping is hateful.) But at last, I have something to show for it. \o/

So when I said I wanted to vid everything to Taio Cruz, what I really meant was I wanted to keep vidding Korra to Taio Cruz. The very first time I heard Fast Car, I knew I was not going to be able to resist trying to vid Korra/Asami to it.
This is my first ever attempt to actually construct an alternate narrative in a vid, so! Don't judge me too harshly, but do feel free to offer technical concrit. It's for the best, I have no idea what I'm doing. :D
I'm in a battle with my heartbeat.
The more I struggle, the more I get deep.
I go full throttle down the dark streets,
and there is trouble ahead.
I get weak -
it's like I'm running through a red light.
Girl, you know you make me weak.
I should be hitting on the brakes like, harder, harder.
Girl, you really turn me on (on-on-on).
You know you make my engine run (run-run-run).
And there's no turning back, 'cause we've gone too far.
I'll drive you like a fast car. (Go, go, go.)
It isn't like me to get colder,
but when you're running, you're never quite free.
I really wasn't out to find love,
but now you've found me, and got me all -
weak -
it's like I'm running through a red light.
Girl, you know you make me weak.
I should be hitting on the brakes like, harder, harder.
Girl, you really turn me on (on-on-on).

Date: 2012-12-10 09:17 pm (UTC)Thank you for the remaster of Dynamite (throw my hands up yay!) -- I enjoyed it lots the first time, and I'm glad of a prettier version. :-)
But oh, I *adore* Fast Car. Adore adore adore. In part: omg lesbians who with vigorous sex lives who want to get their hands all over each other omg! Also: aw, butch/femme! Also also: all my feelings about what makes Korra and Asami each so sexy as individuals! And I sniggered to find that I don't mind the show's love triangle clips at all when they've been recontextualized to have Mako horning in on Korra and Asami, haha! :-D

Date: 2012-12-11 04:34 pm (UTC)You're quite welcome! I'm glad you liked it enough to come back and get the nicer one - I was SO HAPPY when I finally got a set of logofree eps, and it was such a good feeling to be able to shine it up.
:D :D :D Thank you so, so much! I love Korra and Asami both and I ship it so bad, and in a lot of ways this was a really experimental vid for me, so I was soooooo nervous about it - I can't even tell you how happy I am that it worked for you. \o/ Haha, especially the love triangle clips; honestly this vid is basically what I was telling myself in my head through that entire subplot. :)
