The rough cut's done, as I said. However. There are still around two dozen things about it that I'm not happy with, so I'm going through it again, clip by clip, fixing things. And fixing things in Windows Movie Maker is a tiresome business - essentially, I'm recutting the whole thing.
So I can't do it all in one sitting, because that would drive me mad. Instead, I do it in bits and bobs, an hour of work here, and hour there, whenever I feel like I can bear the song and Windows Movie Maker for a little while. When I release this vid it will be as close to perfect as I can make it, with my meagre experience and my even more meagre means (read: with Windows Movie Maker. Cursed be Bill Gates.) Which means it will take a while yet. Seems I'm a MacSlow vidder as well as a MacSlow writer. *g*

In other news, I converted two of my friends to Life On Mars this week. One of them is AnduraNova from Farscape fandom, one third of the infamous Scape Sisters. The other - more surprisingly! - is an old friend of mine who is *not* fannish at all, so I was rather surprised when she demanded to see my vid not once, but *twice* and then asked if she could see the show, as well! And she held out admirably for two eps, despite the Mancunian accents. Considering she's not used to watching stuff in English, that really is quite amazing. What's even more amazing is that she now wants to watch the rest of the series, as well!
