Oh, goodness, whatever possessed me to take on a hobby that makes me want to stab myself in the face, repeatedly?

I mean, seriously. That is a pretty lame hobby.

Strangely, this seems to be an almost common sentiment among vidders I know, lately.

I wonder why....

*hides pointy stick from you*

Because it takes a certain level of masochism to get into it? (My first response was "Because vidding is dumb," but then I realized it wasn't vidding that was dumb.)


I should have another draft for you in an hour or so. It probably won't have fancy notes addressing things and stuff, because my brain is starting to be bleh-inated, but it will be there.

If I'd known I was going to be vidding, I would have done things differently when I got my compy last summer.

[livejournal.com profile] fan_eunice was just saying to me:

Vidding season. soon to be followed by the season of freaking out because it's uplaoded and there's nothing you can do about it anymore and OMG WHAT WAS I THINKING-- and then the brief relief when it's all over and people didn't throw rotten tomatoes and you feel...why, almost warm and fuzzy about the whole thing, and you think "You know, there's this idea I had..."

And yay, new draft! Don't worry about notes, I'll see what comes out in the draft! *g*

Oh, god, I am trying so very, very hard to forget exactly why I am making this/these. If I think about it, I'll freeze.

Um, at least I'm not going to be there to feel the pressure?

The new one is uploading, I'll send you an email when it's done. Any notes at this point would be something like: adjlsfoiewa;kasdf asdljadf **STAB**, so. *G*

Oh come on, FCP isn't that bad! It's fun! :)

FCP itself isn't so bad. It's the combination of the program, my compy not being one purchased with vidding in mind, and the attempt to make something that doesn't suck monkey tail that is frustrating.

Because the end result is made of awesome?

*hugs*

I'd love to see the new version when it's up, btw. :D

Oh, goodness, I hope it end up made of awesome. I think it is gradually losing suck -- this last draft was a bit less frustrating, yes.

Hey, it's supposed to get easier, not harder, as you go along.

Holler if you need help.

Learning curves, gnar. If I had magical, I would be instantly awesome. *snugs*

Actually, if I was magic, I'd have a dragon, but I digress.
