Hey guys!
I've ripped from dvds for other vidding projects but I can never seem to find the best settings to get me very some high quality .avi's. At the moment I'm working on a Firefly/Serenity vid and I want it to be as stunning as possible.
I've already ripped the dvds with Smartripper. Now I am using FlaskMPEG to convert those files. I have the the newest version of Divx and know I can get some amazing clips if I get the settings right.
Can anyone point me in the right direction or give me some pointers?
I appreciate it. Thanks!

Bruce Lee "Lose Control"

This is a completely different Bruce Lee video than the one I made for my girlfriend a few years ago. This one was more for me. I've always liked the angry, psychotic, out of control side of Bruce's characters ;)

my first Farscape video...

Yay! This baby was made for
_happyme_ as a part of
lithium_doll's Sweet Charity auction (the second round of which should be coming up again in just a couple of months, for those of you who missed out on the fun the first time around), and she has graciously given me the go-ahead to release it into the wild. :D
A big thank you goes to
fahrbotdrusilla and
un4scene for beta and handholding and education on how to do some things and to
lvp3 for letting me know that it's, you know, watchable. ;)

A stray "girl" in a slash vid?
May. 11th, 2006 10:21 pm![[identity profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/openid.png)
I was wondering today how important it is that the lyrics of a song is totally "pure" when it comes to using it for slash. Many love songs are rather gender-neutral, but have a stray "girl" somewhere as interjection (for example, "You win again" and "Everlasting love").
What do you think? Do you only use songs for slash vids that are totally girl-free, or do you compromise, and how far?
(I made a slash vid with "You win again", and nobody remarked especially on the "girl", but I dunno if someone disliked the vid because of it...)
