Girl Anachronism: The Funny

[lierdumoa]

Process, via dialogue:

Pre-Production

Source Review

lierdumoa: Remember how you couldn't watch The Ring the whole way through when you were vidding it because it terrified the shit out of you? I just re-watched Gia last night and cried through, like, the whole movie.
permetaform: Well... now you know what you want out of it?
lierdumoa: I guess?


Production

0:00 - 0:37 seconds:

lierdumoa: So you're gonna be nice and sane, right?
Gia!vid: Ahahahahaha. Aha. Ha.

Vid Party

morgandawn: So, did you end up sleeping at all last night?"
lierdumoa: Nope. For future reference, I wouldn't advise pulling all nighters when you're sick. I nearly passed out and threw up.
lierdumoa: Not in that order.

Post Vid Party

lierdumoa: People at the vidparty seemed to like it.
permetaform: Yes. O_O
lierdumoa: ::this is my skeptical face::
lierdumoa: I'm just like -- agh, it's so funny looking.
permetaform: Stop looking at it like a mother!
lierdumoa: ...

Comparative Analysis

lierdumoa: Your vid song was 8 minutes long?
permetaform: Yep.
lierdumoa: Wow, you weren't lying. Mine is only 3. Well, one of mine. The other is 4 and something or something.

0:38 - 0:49 seconds:

lierdumoa: Dude, are you dying?
Adobe Premiere: Yes.
lierdumoa: I'm sorry.
Adobe Premiere: No, you're not.
lierdumoa: You're right. I'm not.

lierdumoa: Titties!
Angelina Jolie: ::bounces::
lierdumoa: Why are you all offbeat?
Angelina Jolie: ::pouts::
lierdumoa: Aaaargh.

lierdumoa: Your lips are red! My favorite color is red!
Angelina Jolie: ::purses lips::
lierdumoa: Unfortunately, red is not in my color palette.
lierdumoa: ::tweak, tweak, tweak::
lierdumoa: Oh, screw it. I give up.
lierdumoa: Goodness, where did those five hours go?
Angelina Jolie: ::grins::
Adobe Premiere: :snickers::

0:50 - 1:09

lierdumoa: Wow, I don't remember this part of the movie.
lierdumoa: Were Gia and her mom this Freudian when I watched it with the sound on?
lierdumoa: Hey, little girl Gia! I will intercut with adult Gia so people can tell who she is.

adrienne2 (my roommate): So who's the little girl?
lierdumoa: Goddamnit!!!

permetaform: Okay, take that lady out. She's confusing things.
lierdumoa: But she's Gia's mom. The whole point of this section is Gia and her mom.
permetaform: Oh. Oh! Okay, take out this clip, it confused me. Replace it with a two-shot of Gia and her mom.
lierdumoa: Continuity, yay!
lierdumoa: Not that it matters, since this vid is going too fast for anyone to know what the hell is going on anyway.
permetaform: Eh.
permetaform: ::shrug::

adrienne2: So, I get the sense that something weird is going on w/ Gia and her mom.
lierdumoa: W00t!

Class

lierdumoa: Okay, class from 9:00am to 5:00pm. I can handle this.
Registrar: We lied. It's from 12:00pm to 8:00pm.
lierdumoa: ::goes to read fanfic in the computer lab::

Lab

Instructor: You have 10 hrs. of homework due the day after tomorrow.
lierdumoa: I...ten? Uh. Wow. Ten.

1:10 - 1:55

lierdumoa: Damn, that dress is red.
lierdumoa: And it takes a shitload more of the screen then your lips did.
lierdumoa: ::tweak, tweak, tweak::
lierdumoa: Hey, that worked! I can use it on your lips in that other shot!

Adobe Premiere: ::has a seizure::
lierdumoa: Plz stop doing that kthnx.
Adobe Premiere: Eat shit and die.
lierdumoa: Well, when you put it that way.

1:56 - 3:15

permetaform: ::sleepy incoherence::
lierdumoa: ::amusement::
lierdumoa: You know, the sleepy incoherence would make more sense if I had called you, and not the other way around.
permetaform: ::wakes up::
permetaform: So I'm coming over. Does your co-op have eggs?
lierdumoa: Yup.
permetaform: Good. I'm making you breakfast.
lierdumoa: You know, I still eat when I'm vidding.
permetaform: Uh huh.
lierdumoa: I do! Just not at regular intervals.
permetaform: I'll be there in twenty minutes.

permetaform: Omelet!
lierdumoa: You are my favorite person EVAR.

lierdumoa: blah, blah, blah, SGA, blah, blah
permetaform: Focus on your vid.
lierdumoa: And then blah, blah...
permetaform: YOUR VID.

permetaform: Fried rice!
lierdumoa: What I said earlier? Favorite person? Still applies.

permetaform: Hey, you're almost done! I'm going home.
lierdumoa: No, I need more hand-holding.
permetaform: Uh huh.
lierdumoa: Pleeeeease. One more hour.
permetaform: But I'm not providing any helpful information!
lierdumoa: Yes you are! You're reassuring me that what I just did isn't crap.
permetaform: Fine. One hour. Or until I finish my reading.

lierdumoa: It's done!
permetaform: Good job!
permetaform: ::disapparates::
lierdumoa: ::makes credits::

This is even cuter now that I can picture the two of you in person. ;D

Hee! We are tiny and cute.

Actually, Adobe Premiere is pretty nice -- unless you're using avisynth. It despises avisynth. And, of course, the vidder bears the brunt of all this hatred. But, avisynth is the only way I can vid without losing video quality. Besides, I don't know how I'd vid if I didn't have *something* to complain about. ;-)
