Alicia Video

It's done! Yay!

Spoilers for all three Alicia episodes.

This is a sad video, in which Clark is remembering Alicia now that she's gone. I hope you like it! Let me know what you think. :)

Right click and save

She's Like the Wind

If you want to see my other video, it's here in my memories.

Thanks so much to mkitty_03 and euphony for the thorough betas. I couldn't have done it without you. *hug*

I'm sorry! It's working just fine for me. I've downloaded it twice just to test it. Maybe try again?

Okay, frelling_tralk, I've posted a yousendit link. I hope this one works for you. I've been having some problems with streamload yesterday and today.

Just watched it

I like your icon. That was such a cute scene.

Streamload is acting up today. I ended up posting my vid to yousendit.

How do you use yousendit? I've never tried that one.

[identity profile] talitha78.livejournal.com 2005-03-13 10:19 am (UTC)(link)
It's really easy. Just go to www.yousendit.com and upload the vid, and tell them to email you the link. Then post the link.

Good luck!

Thanks Talitha! I'm learning so much with this new hobby of mine. :)

Hmmm, the link isn't working for me either, but my Streamload links are working fine. You might check and make sure you still have downloads left on your account. If not you can add more by going to your account and adding it. I usually end up having to purchase about $9.95 more each month.

I've still got 962 mb left, and the file is only 12.5 mb, so there should be enough for a few people to download it. I've had problems with streamload yesterday and today. I had to upload it twice and email it to myself four times before it worked, so maybe streamload is having a problem.

I'm going to try a yousendit link at Talitha78's suggestion.

There we go! I've upgraded my membership, just in case my videos should become wildly popular, heh!

I started out with the 19.95, then changed to the 4.95, and now I'm on the 9.95. Maybe that'll be just right.

Bravo!! *clapping*
I liked the first video that you made, but I have to say that this one is my favorite :)
The song you chose is perfect.
ext_21868: (ladydoom-ck)

[identity profile] capnzebbie.livejournal.com 2005-03-13 01:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, femme, I'm glad you liked it. :) Every time I thought of "She's Like the Wind," I thought of Alicia's green swirly teleportation.

[identity profile] garryowen.livejournal.com 2005-03-13 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee!

I haven't heard that song in soooooo long. It's a good one for your topic. I liked best when you had Alicia disappearing right when the song shifts gears. Nice. Also, I like the way you repeat certain visuals.

I miss Alicia and (most of) her interactions with Clark on the show. If only Clark would realize he could have those things with Lex...

On a completely unrelated note: I need DSL. This modem shit is driving me insane. It took purt near an hour to download your vid.

Thanks for taking the time to download and watch it. I know--dial up is an exercise in frustration. I'm so glad you liked it and thought it was worth the time.

I miss her too. She was fun.

Thanks for the great comments, garry. :)

Great work. I like the selection of scenes that you ended up using, gave a good overview of the character.:-)

Aww. Poor Clark and Alicia. This is such a nice look back on their relationship. I, too, like all the matching of Alicia transporting to the "she's like the wind" lyrics. Great job!

Thank you! I appreciate the comment on the timing. I worked hard on that. Also, thanks again for the yousendit help.

This was really beautiful. I think the use of black and white in the video was inspired.

Since they've got magic in the show now, don't you think they should have things like ghosts? Then they could bring Alicia back again.

lol! That was one of the things I liked about BtVS, even when someone died, they could always come back, even in a later season.

I'm glad you liked the vid--thanks so much for commenting. :)

Oh, that was *very* good! I loved your use of black and white, it gave those scenes even more weight. The scenes you used for the wind motif worked perfectly, and Clark came off as a young man who loved this girl and was suffering her passing. In other words, once again the fans fixed Smallville!
Wonderful job, and a lovely video, my dear!

Heh! If not us, then who? We'll probably never hear the name Alicia on the show again.

Thank you for the wonderful comments, Roxy. You noticed the things I put a lot of effort into. :)

Sorry for the late feedback, but I get so distracted that I totally forget to respond.

I think that you've really made a very sweet and sad vid here. It's a lovely tribute to Alicia and shows that no matter how brief, there was something real there between Clark and Alicia. Good work.

Thank you, euphony. I appreciate your wonderful comments, as well as all your help with this. I'm glad you think the vid works well and that it shows what I wanted it to show. :)

Hi, is there currently a working link to your vid?
I downloaded it before and I loved it, but I lost it along with everything else on my HD when my computer crashed yesterday :(
ext_21868: (ladydoom-ck)

[identity profile] capnzebbie.livejournal.com 2005-03-31 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Both links should be working now. I'm glad you liked the vid!

[identity profile] michelledru.livejournal.com 2005-04-01 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks for putting it back up. :)

New Link?

Hello I would love to see your video about Alicia, is it possible you could put it up again?

Re: New Link?

[identity profile] capnzebbie.livejournal.com 2005-03-31 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Both links should be fixed now. The first one is a streamload link, which is long-term (when it works), and the second is a yousendit, which only lasts for a week.

I hope you enjoy it! :)

[identity profile] snake-easing.livejournal.com 2005-04-03 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, wow! I downloaded your first one, and it was . . . wow. Poor Clark. The most lovely/appalling sequence was the one with Emily. I love how the little girl pushs Lana off the bridge as the lyrics ironically agree that "we all fall down". It's a great song, too!
ext_21868: (ladydoom-ck)

[identity profile] capnzebbie.livejournal.com 2005-04-03 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the vid. The Emily section was the only part that stayed pretty much the same throughout all revisions because it came together so well from the beginning, so I'm pleased that you commented especially on that part. :)
