FANVID: Memories and Dust (Band of Brothers, Winters, Winters/Nixon)

[annakovsky]

You guys, I have to be the videographer at a friend's wedding tomorrow (it is a very informal and last-minute wedding, but even so), and I am a LITTLE STRESSED about it. The bride works in TV! And even though they told me ten times that they don't care about the wedding video, I am still a human, and with this insider knowledge I know that humans care about wedding videos regardless of the tricksy polite lies they tell. Ahhhhhhhhh wish me luck ahhhhhh.

In other video-related news, it is really hard to quit vidding once you get decent software, and when there are pretty pictures of sexy soldiers to be had. I-I do wish I hadn't stayed up so late finishing it, but WHATEVS.

Anyway, here is a Band of Brothers vid, to Josh Pyke's "Memories and Dust." It's ensemble-y, with a Winters focus, a-and some Winters/Nixon. What, I'm not made of stone, you guys. Be thankful it's not a Jonas Brothers vid.

If for some reason the embed doesn't work, it's also streaming on imeem and youtube. And if you'd like to download a higher quality file, right-click and save-as.

Kovsky, I am going to watch this! I will report back.

Also? What is with you and the JoBros! :O

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Heee, yay!

I DON'T KNOW. Their catchy pop tune stylings were a gateway drug to how they are SUPER JAILBAITY. Er. At least the one I like is. IT'S CONFUSING. Also, there is no good fic! What!

(is the matter with me, is the end of that last sentence)

Hahahaha. Tell me more about things you've learned through your insider knowledge!

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Their emotions are off-putting!

... oh wait, that's what YOU'VE learned. Haha.

If you are trying to make Fod love you most, it won't work.

On the other hand, I LOVE YOU MOST! Wow. This makes my heart all warm and fuzzy and it's almost like *I'm* human! Sheesh!

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Who IS this?





(Heeeeee. <3 <3 <3 Yay, I'm glad you liked it! FOD TOTALLY WILL LOVE ME MOST WHATEVER YOU SAY THOUGH.)

Great video :)

...and now I need to have a BoB marathon. You know, I had plans this weekend. Thanks a lot.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much!

And ahaha, YOU'RE WELCOME. You'll have a better weekend this way anyway. :P

[agate.livejournal.com]

HEY HEY I LIKE THIS SHOW AND I LIKE YOUR VID. Aaaahhh the collar pulling is still my favorite part. Also, yup, I really love Winters the hatchling in his tiny shorts at Toccoa and then Winters the fledgling jumping out of a plane. (Haha, I know it's allegedly "ensembley" whatevs whatevs would you expect any different from me.)

[agate.livejournal.com]

GASP I just realized you're back to being unblocked! OUR FILTER CONFUSES ME SO MUCH.

[zarahemla.livejournal.com]

Totally adorable, Kovsky! In a wartime sort of way.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Hee, thanks!

[miss-bennie.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, WOW, I like to think that you finished this because I used the word "immediately." (Because I clearly think very highly of myself?) It's so CHARMING and SEXY. A-are you making more?

(Don't tease about JoBro vids, A.)

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, I seriously stayed up till FOUR AM, ALL FOR YOU. O-Or because I can't stop listening to that song OR watching BoB so I thought I'd combine them. Either way.

THANK YOU! And hee, clearly we're all on a quest to vid ALL your Sexy War playlist songs.

(N-No plans for more are in the works, but who knows?)

[irishmizzy.livejournal.com]

Oh man, what a fantastic Friday surprise! FANTASTIC AND SEXY AND DELIGHTFUL. (Oh, God, the ’cause I saw two fall before they were ready to /
and I found no sense of gain to bear the cost parts! I mean, I'm not crying yet, but it's really been a battle.)

It's ensemble-y, with a Winters focus, a-and some Winters/Nixon.

Hahaha, you were just following in the vein of the show! They WERE the main characters in WWII.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

I JUST GO WHERE THE CANON TAKES ME, M. DON'T SHOOT THE MESSENGER. Hahahaha.

Heeee, thanks, I'm glad you liked it! Too bad about how WWII is so sad. Haha. ALSO I LIKE YOUR ICON.

The best of both worlds

[cleversimon.livejournal.com]

Band of Brothers vid to a Jonas Bros. song?

Just sayin'.

Re: The best of both worlds

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Hahahahaha. You're not helping, Simon.

[peopleareshapes.livejournal.com]

I haven't watched BoB but that was SUPER pretty! Gosh, what a great looking show, I really need to rent the DVDs.

it is really hard to quit vidding once you get decent software

Which software do you use? I doubt I'll ever get around to vidding anything, but just for curiosity's sake.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! You should totally watch it, it's an excellent miniseries.

I've been using Final Cut Express! It's sooo much easier and more awesome than, like, Windows Movie Maker or whatever.

[bellanut.livejournal.com]

Oh, that was gorgeous! And I've never heard that song before, but I really liked it.

*goes to watch again*

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! Isn't it a great song? miss_bennie hooked me up with it and I got a lit-tle obsessed.

[pennylane83.livejournal.com]

It's ensemble-y, with a Winters focus, a-and some Winters/Nixon. What, I'm not made of stone, you guys.

Ahahah <3 <3

This was awesome! So pretty and sad and sexyyyyy. Man, I need another re-watch like, right now. Goooooood luck with the wedding video! I'm sure you'll do great!

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Hahahahahaha. I honestly intended to make an ensemble vid? EVERYTHING I TOUCH JUST COMES OUT WINTERS/NIXON THESE DAYS.

Thank youuuuuuu! I know, I need a rewatch so hard.

(Haha, this wedding video camera is FANCY. I'm SCARED.)

[mozarts-friend.livejournal.com]

KOVSKY THIS WAS SO GOOD HOLY CRAP. Sorry, you know good vids are my weakness, right? AND THIS ONE <3 <3 <3 Seriously, I just loved how you edited it together. This song is going on my Sexy War playlist.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Oh man, THANK YOUUUUUUUU! That totally means so much coming from you. <3 <3

[incogra.livejournal.com]

I usually hate vids (although maybe I've just seen too many embarrassingly sappy ones, Office fandom), but I absolutely loved this. Oh, soldiers.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Oh man, thanks so much! And haha, what, you don't enjoy sappy Jim/Pam vids set to James Blunt? Oh, fandom.

[fiorie.livejournal.com]

Ohhhhhh THIS IS SO SO GOOD. I've never heard this song before and it's incredibly perfect, man. You'd think these clips would start to be less heartbreaking the more you watch them, as it is with most shows, but...I cry more every time. Your editing is amazing too, WELL DONE.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Oh man, THANK YOU! Isn't the song fabulous? It's from N's sexy war playlist! I'm kind of addicted.

[honey-wheeler.livejournal.com]

I love this songgggggg. Truefax, this is the song I had on repeat when I remixed How Pam Beesly Got Kissed, Got Wild, and Got a Life. Pam, Winters, and Nixon are all barely hatched and fresh from the egg! Coal walks and jumping from a plane: they have more in common than you'd think. And AUGH, BoB FEEEEEELINGS. This vid makes me have to close my eyes like Malark when Speirs looks like he's going to shoot the guy who shot Grant, for real.

Also, my very most favorite line is, "and in the morning I can smell you on my pillow / I need to know we won't get wrung out in the wash," and you paired it with the most delightful Winters/Nix scene possible, and for that, ILU forever.

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Dude, is it really the same song? That is crazy and awesome! It's just SO GOOD. Like, I had it on repeat one for days and days.

THANK YOUUUUUUUU! I'm super glad you liked it.

[baleanoptera.livejournal.com]

And after the wonderful picspam I find that you have a BoB vid. The day keeps getting better and better. I love the song choice, and I'm impressed with how you match the lyrics with the pictures. Particularly "make up for what we lost" with the soldier shooting the german, and "it won't be time for all of us" with Lipton from "The Breaking Point". Good stuff.

a-and some Winters/Nixon.

It's only natural. ;D

[annakovsky.livejournal.com]

Oh man, thanks so much! I'm glad you liked it.

And heeeee, Winters/Nixon is just an unavoidable fact, it's true.
