Two New BSG Vids
First offering is a General BSG Vid:

right click, save target as... Title: We Are Now Free (5/1/05)
Song: We Are Now Free by Hans Zimmer
Size: 17,279kb zipped (wmv format)
Notes: After rewatching Gladiator recently I remember how jubilant yet mournful this song was.  It also reminded me so much of the BSG score that I kept going back to it in thinking of a song to make an overarching piece.  This video was me basically asking 'what price freedom' in the BSG verse.   Full of challenges, victories, defeats, and tragedies through individual character's eyes and their interactions.

You send it link or Alternate server link

Second offering is a Helo/Boomer shippy vid:
right click, save target as... Title: Running Two (5/2/05)   
Song: Running Two by Tykwer Klimek Heil feat. Franka Potente
Size: 17,262kb zipped (wmv format)
Notes: Found this song in a soundtrack to Tru Calling, I immediately saw the video in my mind forming.  Pure perfection for Helo/Boomer shippiness.  This one ends in a bit happier an ending than did their story in Season 1, we all make our own reality after all.

I have some more BSG vids if you are curious.

Oooh. Very nice.

And, for the record, Running Two is off the fabulous Lola Rennt (Run Lola Run) soundtrack. Gorgeous movie, too. *g*

Thank you!

[info]sabaceanbabe earlier mentioned to me it was from Run Lola Run, I really must check out that movie now I think. :)

Cool. Of course, now I'm vaguely tempted to figure out how to do the Galactica version of RLR....

yes, you must. As I say in my blog, it's the best movie EVER. Not that I'm setting expectations high at all.

Great work on the vids. I enjoyed them and am pimping them. I hope you don't mind. I'll be sure to give you a cut of whatever I make. heh.

Let me second that idea of RLR as BSG. :D

I love that frakkin' flick. I first saw it in the original German in a German language class and now I have it on DVD.

Now I'm confused, I know you said it's music video like but is it translated into english? If so, is that how the song is in english? 'cause I so don't speak german.

Lola Rennt is in German, Run Lola Run is in English (dubbed, I believe).

Will definately pick up RLR, what with 3 recommendations now. :)

Hi there

I saw your vids posted on one of the other journals (Galactica Vids maybe). I only DLed the first one (dial up connection and not really a H/B shipper) and I really like it. Great song choice.

I have a question, if you don't mind. I haven't seen much of the series yet as I live outside the States (DVDs on their way to me now, thank god) but I've seen a number of clips. I don't recognise one, though. Near the end of the vid there's a clip of what appears to be Kara, up against a wall and looking upset (with a hand on someone's shoulder). Could you tell me which ep. it's from? Is it maybe from the final ep of the season with Helo stopping her from harming Cylon!Boomer?

Thanks a lot, and thanks also for the video.

Hi there!

Yeah, sorry about the spamming, I was pimping these a few places 'cause it's ones I'm rather proud of. :) Thanks for watching though!

About your question, that scene... don't look at it anymore. lol It will spoil quiet a bit if you figure out who she's standing with and where she is. It's from the last few episodes, I'll tell you that, but I want you to be surprised... although in further reading I see you know of Helo having to protect C!Boomer from Starbuck so yeah. That would be that scene. lol

BTW, you may want to check out the H/B vid, it's just a fun song and kinda action-like. Not purely sugary shippy.

It ain't spam when it's quality, s'all I'm saying ;o)

Re. the scene, thanks for letting me know. I'm a Starbuck/Apollo fan so I'm totally spoiled for everything between them anyway - I shall refrain from that for season 2, however. I'll keep the link for the video for later but I'm keeping as spoiler-pure as poss. for other storylines (so I at least have something new when I watch the season).

Thanks for the help!

I've not been as good about S2 spoilers as you. Although I should be considering I was completely unspoiled for S1 as I watched the whole thing over one weekend... that was beyond fun I gotta say! I'm too weak willed now that I'm addicted though. Must know everything now! lol

I wish I was unspoiled about season 1, now that I'm into the show enough to buy the DVDs! However it's the only fandom I've fallen into via the fanfic rather than the show, so I ended up DLing music vids and reading bits of scripts to fill in the background of the fics (heh).

I'm really annoyed because, a. I didn't watch the series as it screened on TV (we're up to Colonial Day now but I missed the first 8 eps) and b. because I had no idea (until I was well & hooked) that the show was still screening in the States, so there'd be a wait for season 2. I assumed it would be one of the dramas that airs here after the first season is over in the States, meaning there wouldn't be much of a wait till season 2. Oh heck and damn!

You are getting into BSG the same way I got sucked into Farscape! Too funny.

And yeah, this show was aired kinda bassackwards, the UK got it *way* before the US but the decision to pick up a 2nd season wasn't made until a good portion of the US airing numbers had come in. I quiet enjoyed it though because the night I saw the first two episodes I ran to DL the entire season. That was good in the sense I had no chance to get spoiled and bad in the sense that I was just overloaded in a crash course of BSG! Surprised my brain didn't go "boom, sir."

Ah, I wondered what the deal was with the UK. I just read something else that said that Sky TV owns a large share in the show. It all maketh the sense now. And I envy you! I cannot wait to get the DVD set and watch from the beginning. I hope it arrives before Saturday, which is when KLG 1 airs here. I want to watch it without ads.

Hee. I kept telling myself I'd watch 'em when they aired. But then a friend of mine in DC sent me the DVDs he'd burned of the UK broadcast and I was sunk. He asked me if I wanted them. I said no. I ask you: What part of "no" did he not understand?

Hee ;o) Well really I'd rather watch them all in a row without ads, however it does make the wait for the next season longer than long. How am I going to avoid spoilers, I ask you?! I can't stop reading fic - it's like crack.

Definitely, definitely check out all her other vids. Un4 is a true video artist (you can pay me back in Vancouver, if we both go) - Running Two, Master and Servant, and Not Enough are some of my fave BSG vids.

*pokes un4 to make more vids, dammit*

Oh, look! I'm avoiding work again!

Thank you, my lord!

May I have another, my lord?

;D

Soooo hoping Vancouver works out, have they posted an events calendar yet? I should do some airline checks anyway.

(Me too! I'm hiding from a committee meeting!)

I completely love that H/B vid.

I did try to download "Master and Servant" from your website (I've become Gaius/Six in such a short time ;)), but the download was so incredibly slow and I grew impatient (patience isn't a virtue I possess, unfortunately). Perhaps there's a faster way?

Thanks!

I just finished watching it. Gosh, I love how you timed the light effects. Can you believe that scene in the miniseries where Six puts herself in front of Baltar *still* made me jump?

I actually don't know the song. It sounded very 80s-90s, though.

[info]un4scene

Depeche Mode? Oh yeah, so 80's.

Six and Baltar have some great moments in the mini, and I dunno if it's just me but James has gotten cuter as the show went on. My favorite of them is them walking down the hallway holding hands. Priceless.

I agree! I *love* that scene - and it was cute until Six slammed Baltar's head into a bulkhead ;). I'm not too fond of Six's silver dress, though.

Like they say, it's all fun & games until someone's head gets slammed into a bulkhead. ;)

I think my favorite of her outfits is the babydoll in KLG. Particularly in all that green pastoral setting. Wow, another scene were she is leading him by the hand. I think I see a pattern.

I thought they said it ain't a party until something gets broke? *snerk*

My absolute favorite Six scene is in Colonial Day, when she's so jealous and upset at Baltar that she slams his head into the mirror. She just looks so haggard (well, for Tricia Helfer, anyway) in that scene, likes he's really hurting her. *melts* I also like the spiderweb dress she wears in that one. :)

I thought it wasn't a party until someone gets cylon brain chipped? Hmm...

I'm really amazed at what a great job Tricia is doing with Six. She's a model after all, and I'm not saying models are dim...

*looks at Ian Somerhalder*

Nevermind that

... but it's just that she's pretty new to the acting thing and she's got all the subtlety to make a fragile villain believable. I really believe Baltar's dismissals were hurting her.

*laughs!*

I just watched Colonial Day last night and there was no head-slamming. I think you mean KLG1 after Baltar sleeps with Kara. I haven't seen it yet, but I think it'll make my eyes widen. I jumped in my seat when Six screamed in Baltar's face in one of the earlier eps. My God, was that good or what?

I love Tricia's acting. At first, I thought "A model? What is this going to be like?", so there was prejudice on my part. She does a wonderful job, though. Then again, I think Grace Park also plays her part well. I just don't see the complaints against her.

Damn, this makes me realise I want to see more Gaius/Six fiction. There's a G/6 community - This Mad Love - but it's not active.

Ack! I think you're right! That scene *is* in KLG1.

And Tricia and Grace? Yep. Just proves the old saying that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I can't imagine anyone better in any of the parts on this show. They're all such good actors that they've made the parts their own.

I think both This Mad Love and One More Last Kiss will become a lot more active when the show starts back up in July - there'll be more fic fodder. :)

Yep, that was Water I believe. Great scene for vidding, lemme tell you. :D
