Fandom: Skins
Characters: Sid Jenkins and Cassie Ainsworth
Song: Poison & Wine by The Civil Wars

Description:
Happy Valentine's Day!! I didn't actually plan on uploading this on Valentine's day - it was just a coincidence, but hey! Also thanks for 3,000+ subscribers! And 5,000,000 views I suppose, those I suppose 99% of those are robot subscribers or viewers from kissing compilation videos so they don't really count :P. I'm fairly certain no one is actually here but if there is a real human being reading this, hello! Sid and Cassie are the ORIGINAL Skins ship and a large part of why I got into the show so I really wanted to pay them tribute. Also I got a new editing program so this was like trying out a new toy.

Cassie and Sid are some of the first Skins characters I ever fell in love with. Their push/pull is indescribable.

This is the first video I ever made with PowerDirector 15 which, personally, I find miles ahead of 14. It's still the editing program I have now. It really goes to show how much difference a solid program can make. I made this video incredibly quickly even though there was a lot of complexity to it. And I got to layer some images which was a new feature! To date, this is one of the videos I am ABSOLUTELY most proud of and I wish it had more attention. I'm so happy with the coloring - the timing, the layering, the transitions... ugh. I love this video.

I remember making this REALLY had me wanting to go back and perhaps redo old videos with an updated skillset. But that is a really slippery slope that I'm not ready to go down - only with a very small, selected few. My mind may change if I ever get Vegas and realize just how much these need to be redone.

Evanna & Keo - DWTS Tribute - I Wanna Dance With Somebody

November, 2018 Fandom: Dancing With the Stars s27 Pairing: Evanna Lynch and Keo Motsepe Song: I Wanna Dance With Somebody by Whitney Houston Description: Team Kevanna!!! So happy they made it to the finals! They may have gotten third place, but their are the winners in my heart. They got to dance every single dance and for that I am so grateful. I've never seen this show before. I watched for Evanna and thought I would stop once she got eliminated (which never happened!) Evanna Lynch has made me want to dance again. I literally have these dances memorized by now. I've seen them so many times. I included clips from all of their scored dances, as well as their behind-the-scenes introduction video, and their intro on opening night. This video is an oddball because it's a very, very specific fandom... I wouldn't even call it a fandom, I'm just a fan all here by myself. Vidding reality TV is probably not even a thing. But I was SOO obsessed with Evanna Lynch

Remus Lupin - The Wolves

July, 2014 Fandom: Harry Potter Character: Remus Lupin Song: The Wolves (Act I and II) by Bon Iver Description: "With the wild wolves around you/In the morning I'll call you/Send it farther on." Dedicated to Remus Lupin. Also shows his relationships with Harry Potter and Nymphadora Tonks. I wish he had more screen time. I would've done this video much differently if the baby storyline was actually left in. But this is the best I could do! Remus Lupin is definitely one of the most fantastic Harry Potter characters of all time - one that evokes a mixture of reverence and admiration, yet also extreme pity. I have to give a shoutout not only to David Thewlis's performance, but Broad Strokes' Productions INCREDIBLE "Great Wizarding War" audio series, in which Remus Lupin is voiced by Paul Stanko. I had a separate video idea in my head for how I would have made this video if the books were filmed in their entirety, but alas, this is the adapted ver

December, 2015 Fandom: Skins Characters: Freddie McClair and Effy Stonem Compilation of Kissing Scenes Description Skins is a UK TV show. Basically a compilation of every kissing scene of theirs that I knew. If I forgot one someone let me know and I'll fix it. What... what kind of mood was I in this December?? I posted like three compilation videos in a row... was I just so burnt out that I didn't want to make any actual videos?? This took no effort. People love it though, because they love Freffy. I get it, I do too. These are like basic fan service.
