Searching for betas

[ghost_lingering]

Hey, I'm looking for betas for a Criminal Minds vid focusing on the character Elle Greenaway. By virtue of being a CM vid there is some disturbing/triggery imagery. At least passing familiarity with the show/character would probably help, but it's not required; I hope that the vid provides enough context that it works even if you don't really know the show. I'm mostly just looking for reactions to the vid—it's more complicated than anything else I've done and I want to make sure that it conveys what I'm going for.

Additionally, if you speak Spanish that could be helpful as well, because there's a section of the song that's in Spanish and while I have a translation I've been working off of, I want to make sure that the images play to someone who actually speaks the language.

Anyway, if you're interested comment w/ your e-mail address and I'll send you a download link & more info about the vid.

Thanks much!

I'd be happy to help out, but I don't speak much spanish. I'm working on a CM vid myself at the moment, so I'm interested to see what you've come up with. Haven't seen the current season yet but if your vid is Ellecentric that shouldn't matter....(unless she comes back as a serial killer).

Out of curiosity what's your CM vid about? There needs to be more CM vids in the world!

And no worries on the Spanish thing--just mentioned that in case anyone reading does know it.

Anyway, the vid only goes through her last ep in season two so you'll be fine--nothing from any of the later seasons makes it in. (I'm behind on season 5 so she might come back as a serial killer for all I know--but I really I hope not!!!) The vid is tentatively titled Sadie Hawkins (which is also the title of the song) & the music is by the hip-hop/spoken word artist Dessa. I'm basically looking for what you take away from the vid, what sections you think are particularly strong or weak, and any other thoughts/suggestions/comments you've got. And if you have any brilliant ideas for the credits; what I've got now is the most placeholder-y placeholder ever. It has to go. Here's the d/l link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JKK1SZ1U Let me know if it doesn't work.

My e-mail is ghost [dot] lingering [at] gmail [dot] com if you want to send your thoughts that way.

Thanks much!

I'm downloading it as we speak and will take a look at it when I come back from work this evening. Feedback via e-mail.
