Vidding discussion

vid title: Soap in a Bathtub
music: Stoney
source: the L word
duration: 4:30
summary: Shane character study for season 5.
notes:I envisioned this vid as a layered piece. The first layer being the show itself, the L word, and the character of Shane. The song is asking her "isn't this what you want?" She constantly starts and stops relationships, sabotages them, and starts again. Nearly every season is the same for her. There's a woman, they get together, Shane can't commit fully, there's a freak out, and then the relationship breaks off somehow (usually cheating). Assuming it's not lazy writing, which it may be, the character continually repeats her doomed relationship because she sees the couples around her (mainly Bette and Tina) happy and in love. That's what she wants for herself, but she can't actually keep it. The second layer is my own layer. The vid is for charmax, who, like I said at the end of the vid, has found what most of us are still looking for, including me (and Shane).

For Charmax: May you have found what most of us are still looking for.
