Merlin Vidding Workshop: Meet The Vidder
On May 19, 2010, la esmeralda participated in such heights meet the Merlin vidder workshop. Excerpts are included below, the entire interview can be read here.
[Intro:] I fell into vidding accidentally, when I discovered there were a lot of crack songs/concepts that could go the Whoniverse, and when the Merlin fandom became alluring, the same applied. When I vid for this show, I find there's a lot of space for insanity (hence a dodgy rap vid I did once), shameless shippery, and considerations with a touch more gravity (wherein Morgana provides often very gay gold). At the moment, I've got a Gwen vid in the works - mostly because I can't write meta. :)Vidding has been an ongoing learning curve for me, from the precious moment someone told me, "aspect ratio: it is good", to that invaluable time I learnt about working with music beats, and I still enjoy experimenting with different styles and techniques. Merlin is rich and fairly consistent in its imagery, so it's always a treat to work with.
Finally, my weapon (not wholly of choice, but a wheezing laptop will indulge no nicer programs) is Windows Movie Maker. It has a terrible - often deserved - rep, but with patience it is possible to pull out something watchable!
