sulwenI am making a fanvideo. This is really incredibly exciting. For the longest time, Windows Movie Maker wouldn't open on my computer. A few months ago, I had to do a complete system restore, and when I got everything up again, WMM was suddenly working. I know it's about the worst video editing software out there, but I'm not going to spend money on a hobby I haven't even tried out yet.
I hadn't really been inspired to give vidding a try until my awesome friend![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
chez_amanda burned me a copy of a J2 fanmix she made. It had "Alone" by Heart on it. I couldn't stop listening. The song is just awesome, and I love it for the boys. So, finally, I decided that a vid needed to be made.
It was a HUGE pain in the ass getting everything downloaded, installed, and set up so I could rip, convert, and edit clips from my SPN DVDs. But, at long last, it works! I have successfully created 33 seconds of a fanvid! Yeah, WMM does indeed suck, and yeah, it's going to take me an age and a day to get through all the hours of SPN I want to take clips from. But I am SO DAMN HAPPY right now that it doesn't even matter.
Fandom is AWESOME, and getting to contribute to it in a whole new way is ESPECIALLY awesome!
