Social Suicide's attempt at artstuff

[Cangel]

Well, I thought I'd give fanworks on Buffy a chance. Mainly I made videos so far (okay, thaqt makes it sound like I've made a lot, which is not really the case). I would love to create something more image-y, and I've given that a try as well, but what can I say, Paint and XnView aren't the best art programmes, but unfortunately they are the only ones I have on my computer.

Well, here are my videos:

Buffy first season (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=rapTKhOa62A) this was my first video ever. I tried to give an overview over season1 of Buffy, using screenshot of every episode. It's kinda bad, even for a first try, but well, I hope it's still watchable.

You're Welcome Cordy (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=CfqMICIbM2k&feature=related) My second video attempt, this time with real clips. It turned out a lot better than my first video, although it's not really good either, the image freezes at one point and I could've edited more.

Angel/Buffy: be without you (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=TBiSxSt_TSk) That's the Bangel video I've made, check it out.

Dawn: Overprotected (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=laNt4DmPsnY) A Dawn video I made. It used to be a lot better before WMM gave me trouble with publishing. So now it's kinda jolty. Hope you like it anyway.

The Cordy and Angel chronicles, Part 1 (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Mlr8AgLsyDQ) I was trying something new, a video fanfiction. It's something I made under the motto 'Buffyverse history rewritten', so it's really fanfiction, not so much chronicles. Like it says, this is part 1, I'll be continuing the story soon. This video was made using images only, I was trying something new and I hope it's good. I finished this video only today so it's still pretty new.


Now to the more embarassing part, the more image-y part of my attempts:

I created this as the banner for my blog, to create a more Cangel atmosphere.

http://img29.picoodle.com/img/img29/4/4/11/t_EvilWillowvm_763f3e6.jpg (http://www.picoodle.com/view.php?img=/4/4/11/f_EvilWillowvm_763f3e6.jpg&srv=img29)

Well and that's an image I created for my blog, supporting the question 'Who would win a fight between Harry Potter and Evil Willow?'


That's all Buffy related fanwork I've done so far, to be exact the only fanwork I've ever done so far (If you don't count the 3 Wallpapers I tried to make back in 8th grade), tell me what you think.

I LOVE LOVE LOVED your new video fanfic thing!!!Its like the best thingEVER! I can't wait to see what happens! and cool art stuff too! the dawn video is super!:D

[Cangel]

Okay people. Despite the fact that I'm absolutely talentless regarding any kind of art and actually failed my last art class, which was back in 10th grade, I actually took a shot at drawn fanart.
Well as you can see it's pretty horrible so I would be happy for some advice, I know we have some artist people around who might be able to help. I would really appreciate it.

Can you even tell who it's supposed to be?

[Blondie Bear]

It's Angel, isn't it? I can tell from the hair going straight up. :) You're better than me. Art is not where my talents lie.

It's Angel, isn't it? I can tell from the hair going straight up.
That´s my thought exactly. Too bad if it´s wrong though.

And as art go I´ve made three paintings my whole life I wasn´t ashemed to show to people. Ok, maybe I thought better of myself then I was really young, so lets say from the age of 9. And if I could draw like you I wouldn´t be ashamed at all. But it´s still room for improvement. ;)

It's alright, I can't draw either. But you can definetly draw better than me.

[Lindsey McDonald]

I liked your drawings. Altough they are seemingly basic (in that they are line art), you clearly have an understanding of proportion and the shape of a face. It's surprising when you really look at a face you are drawing how different it is to what a usual cursory glance would imply. Lips and eyes don't look like the look like! Yours was instantly recognisable though not only because of the hair, but becuase you got the basic shapes right. That's a hell of a lot more difficult to do than it sounds. The only tip I can give you is just to practice. You have the basics, now you have to draw as much as you can! It's nice to see more non photoshopy art in here!

Edit: I forgot to ask, how did you insert those first pics as thumbnails? I've been trying to figure that out for ages!

I made a new video.

Here's the link to youtube:
Buffy clipmix (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1xLk_7q7I8)

Of course WMM had to be a total bitca to me again so quality sucks and everything is so shaky again (that's because I had to capture image seperate and then add sound again, and the programme I have to capture the video is just really bad, but the only one I have)...everything always because of these stupid saving errors! (I read about it on wikipedia...apparently you can prevent it if you don't save it until the end...now the question is, is it lucky or unfortunate that it got saved like 5 times always when WMM crashed?)

Well, I hope it's watchable anyway.

[Cangel]

I've made a new video. And for a change, I made it Tillow...well, the song was perfect I thought.

hope you like, would like comments :D
