Let's not forget our own Flyin11 who made dozens of DA vids. His "The Reason" by Hoobastank is my favorite. Not only a great song but perfect scenes. Thanks I always enjoyed the So Far Away one I made...Not a lot of people agreed but I just watched it again from my files and I thought it was a great one

I was a huge fan of ur "So Far Away" vid Flyin11 was actually the reason I went out and brought the song.....actually because of u my music collection has multiplied a great deal in the last year ;D.
Because of ur great work I have fell in love with a lot of the songs that i probably wouldnt have heard otherwise. Thank you!
Because of awesome vids like that I think is there really any point me making anymore cause I could never get as close to perfection, reason I have been lacking in that area of late.

I was saving you, x318, because you've actually made the newest videos. Give It Away - Deepest Blue Everything - Lifehouse Easier to Run - Linkin' Park. Touchin - R. Kelly These are the four I have. Excellent work and I think they're right up there with some of flyin11's. Do you mean if you can't be the very best you don't want to participate? Woo hoo, you're gonna miss out on a lot. ;D

I meant that lately I've been finding it hard to find inspiration and my work to me isnt as good as it used to be. I've tried watching DA and watching old vids which are still awesome but when it comes to mine I just stare at the screen. Why did I have to have such a long break in not doing anything I really dont know if I'll be able to get back into it now. So not that I have to be the best, but I'm a perfectionist and if it dont look good to me I wont post it. Always have been this way and always will be. But thanks for mentioning my old work Aerie means a lot to me, nice to know all that time was put to good use. I dont have enough faith in myself to believe that they were good without comments from u's (god how shallow of me ). I think I've got to the aweful stage of only making these vids now if someone asks for them. Before I used to make them because I really enjoyed it and doing it for myself, then sharing them with u's. But now its only if anyone asks for them really. I'm in a rut I cant seem to get myself out of....all hobbles involving DA have stopped. I guess you can say I thrive for reviews now instead of making them because I loved it so much. Its terrible I know and I'm ashamed to say it really.

I’m so totally not qualified to say anything here since the only video I ever managed to download was the Everything-one from you, x318… but that one is so beautiful it surely would be among my favourites had I seen others . I could watch it in endless-repeat-mode. (Good thing it's not on video tape and doesn't wear out ;D)

Its terrible I know and I'm ashamed to say it really. Welcome to the wonderful world of vid making. I lost my DA mojo years ago, so i deleted all the eps i had (over 12gb) and now when i do get inspired i'm pretty much stuck. If you find another fandom to inspire you then that will help. For a long time i went without making a vid, then i fell into the QAF fandom and started churning them out more and more, i was also getting inspired by movies so i made a few movie ones, and right now my focus has been on the German national football team and their captain Michael Ballack (see World Cup thread for more evidence of my obsession). So chin up, you'll get out of that rut. Just maybe not with DA.

Don't tell me - you are using wmm? ;D Haha. Well, I was, and it was very frustrating. I'm working with a trial copy of Adobe Premiere Pro right now, and it's going much more smoothly. And I have to agree with Tweed Pants about a new show or fandom bringing new inspiration. Although funnily enough, for me DA is the show that got me wanting to vid again. I haven't made a vid since I first got into Battlestar Galactica in 2005, but falling for Max and Logan has made me want to start back up. No idea if that's a good or a bad thing. ;D

X-318, are you having trouble with one song or deciding what song to use for a new Max and Logan video? I´m just wondering. I have sometimes changed my mind about using a song and used the song later. One of problems is deciding what song to use and when. I have gotten inspired by looking at the DA Video Request Thread here on DAR.

The song aint the problem I have tried about 5 different songs now its what tweedy said I think.....I'm not as interested in the fandom as I used to be and its hard to get back into it now from not watching it in ages, (didnt really want to say that....oh well). I aint never in one place long enough anymore to concentrate on a vid, I need like at least a whole day to create one before and now when I do have that time I just stare at the scene then half a day is gone. Inspiration isnt what it used to be.....its ashame. But you never know just......just wanted u's to know why I aint been around so much.
