[vid] Glittering Cloud (House/Cuddy, House/Amber)

title: Glittering Cloud
pairings: House/Cuddy, House/Amber
song: Glittering Clouds (Locusts) by Imogen Heap
length: 3;56
disclaimer: When the vulture flies sideways, the moon has hair on its upper lip.
summary & notes: I started this video with a set idea in mind, and ended up with something completely different. Originally, the idea was a House/Cuddy video focusing on the Tritter arc. But somehow, it turned into not!Tritter arc House/Cuddy vid, with House/Amber added into the mix. The basic storyline: House and Cuddy are in a relationship that's not going too well, and Cuddy suspects something is going on between House and Amber. She decides that if her suspicions are confirmed she'll put an end to what she and House have. But when Amber dies in a crash that both she and House are in, Cuddy begins to realise how much House is suffering from the trauma of the accident and the guilt he feels over Amber's death. She watches him spiral into a cycle of self-destructiveness but doesn't know how to help House, until he finally comes to her.

It's the first vid I've made with an actual set storyline to it - like I said, completely not what I intended it to be. I think this turned out better than the original idea. I think the song - which I edited heavily, because I have a fetish for editing music to make it feel more like the whole product is my own - compliments this final result better, too. As always, comments and/or concrit are welcomed and appreciated. AND A HUGE THANKS TO shutterbug_12 FOR UPLOADING THIS TO YT FOR ME, because my connection is slow and shit.

glittering cloud by imogen heap
I'm not always like this.
It's something I become.
A terrible weakness,
in my nature, in my blood.
Save me, oh save me,
save me from myself.
Before I hurt somebody else again.

Domino motion jump starts when we touch.
The blackout approaching,
here it comes now, wish me luck.
It's all over, it's all over.
It's all over in a flash.
I can't remember,
what have I done now?

Go, faster, wider, more.
Get it down, you dance.
Take me over glittering cloud.

Oh, my head hurts.
Oh dear, oh dear.

Don't blame me,
Don't maim me,
I can't help what I am
Oh, Lord knows I've tried to

Go go faster wider
More more get it down ya
Dance dance take me over
Glittering Cloud

Whoo! I hope you enjoy it whenever you do get to a computer that has sound! :D

[juajua.livejournal.com]

Ouah, great vid! Well done, the colors, the choice of images, how you organized them, the music... everything's perfect! You made your own story with this vid and waouw(again)... there's a beginning, there's an end, there's a meaning. Love it!

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Yeah, I had a lot of fun with the storytelling aspect of this vid. :-)

[namasteyoga.livejournal.com]

I do love your vids ... they're about the only one I'll automatically click on and have to check out.

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Aww, yay. That's nice to know :-) I know vids aren't generally things people enjoy in fandom, but they're definitely a lot of fun to make. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[wanderlonely.livejournal.com]

This vid is so much better than many fics, seriously! It's really a vid that is "telling a story", an amazing vid, you do a great work! ♥ (so.....is there any possibility that this storyline will become a fic? ;))

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Haha, I thought about it becoming a fic... We'll have to see ;-)

Thanks so much for watching and commenting, bb! ♥

[shikabane-mai.livejournal.com]

I love the intensity of the video during the "Go, faster, wider, more" parts. The way you manipulated the clips were beautiful. You are truly my favourite vidder of all time.

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Aww, wow. What a lovely compliment. Thanks so much! :-)

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :-)

[amy-119.livejournal.com]

This is fantastic, Ticcy. Really great stuff. You edited it perfectly. You do a great job at editing the clips and taking them out of context to fit your story. You did a great job at storytelling. This is really, really amazing. Great job. =D

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

You have no idea how much fun I have making vids and making my own stories with them. Guh. I have developed an addiction, seriously.

Thanks so much, bb. I'm so glad you liked it! ♥

[crumpled-up.livejournal.com]

You did it again! You are a genius at these (and at everything else, really). Love how everything goes with the beat of the song. Lovely song too, btw. This vid completely told the story you were trying to tell, from beginning to end. Love the close ups of the raw emotion on their faces and that's what really sold me about this.

Frickin' fantastic.

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Weirdly, when I was making this, I didn't know where it was going. I realised it had a storyline by the time I reached the end, lmao.

Thanks so much, bb. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :D

[just-alexandria.livejournal.com]

well I posted a comment on youtube but I'll post it here too :)

TotallyiDunno: absolutely friggin brilliant dude your videos are amazing and like I don't think I've seen better editing than you..it's like you can never make a unwatchable video...I MEAN I GET EXCITED WHEN YOU MAKE A VIDEO!! ahahaha totally loved it and it's sooo realistic the way you put the clips together!!! great fabulous fantastic job!!! WOOOOPPPPP

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I wondered who you were on youtube. Yay! Thanks so much for the lovely feedback. I enjoy making the vids just as much - it's an (un)healthy addiction, let me tell you. Lol.

Thanks again. ♥

[eglvm.livejournal.com]

That was so beautiful and well done! Favoriting!
I love the song too. Good old Imogen Heap. Geniuses.

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! :-)

[london_fan]

Awesome editing! I was skeptical when I read the summary, but you pulled it off extremely convincing! And I love that song! Wow, simply wow! ♥

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Ha. No, I can understand why you'd be skeptical - had the idea come to me *before* I made the vid, I would've been just as skeptical and probably wouldn't have even attempted it. Luckily the vid led me rather than me leading it, no? Lol.

Thanks so much for watching and commenting, bb! ♥

[loudxmusic.livejournal.com]

DUDE.

This is by far one of my favorite videos of yours. I really love the concept, it's something that's hard to pull off and not make it totes cliche, and you did it beautifully. I am so. Fucking. Impressed, you have no idea. My favorite part was the dream sequence House was having. Beautiful job, BB. ♥

[jenc81.livejournal.com]

Great video. The timing was perfect.

Hi, there!

I wanted to try and download your vids, since I've heard such good things about them. However, only your most recent one, Tainted Love, still has the sendspace link valid. I know the others are up on youtube, but youtube generally has lower quality and it's not quite the same-- and more to the point, when it's a good vid, I like to keep it in my collection for repeated (and offline) viewing.

Is there any way to get the vid files back up? I know it's a lot of them, but I figure it's at least worth asking.

[ticcyyy.livejournal.com]

Hey there.

Yeah, sure. Give me a list of the vids you want, and I'll reupload them. Might take me a while because my connection is a bit slow, but I'll get through the list eventually.

Plus, I've just acquired my own web domain, so I'll be hosting my vids on there once I've sorted that out. :-)

[bell]

Or I could be patient and wait for your webdomain to go live. :)

If you're still willing to do a temporarily upload, later today I'll get you a list of the ones I especially wanted to see. Off the top of my head I've wanted to watch "Love Lasts Forever."

[bell]

So I watched "Tainted Love," and yowza, do you know your way around editing a clip! (the colors! the zooming in! the shaking and all the screen flashes!) And all used very effectively; it made for a disturbing, heart-breaking vid.

If you´re still up for uploading a vid or two before you put them up on your site, here´s a list of the ones I most wanted to see: Love Lasts Forever, Call and Answer, Passive, Closer, and We Might as Well Be Strangers. I´d like to see them all, really, but I know that if you reuploaded any to sendspace, it´d be a favor. :)

Thanks~.
