Question to any Babylon 5 fans & the daily screen captures

[ashinae]

To the B5 fans: If anybody's familiar with the song or can *cough*find a copy to listen to*cough* -- what say you I put a season three vid set to Enigma's "Eyes of Truth" on my List of Vids To Make?

I'm watching s3 right now; it's been ages since I've seen about 2/3s of the season. I'm right now halfway through 3.08: "Messages From Earth". B5 had been re-run in syndication on one of the channels locally just as I finished one year of school; my schedule became crazy, alternating days and nights at work and doing things with friends, so I'd often forget to program my VCR (which was a crap machine at the time, and would not let me pre-program several recording times at once), and thus missed most of the season. It stopped airing after it ran season four, too.

Anybody think it's a good idea? The song's a little long; I could probably trim it. Seeing as I'm watching most of it brand-spanking-new right now, if anybody has any suggestions for some clips I could use, I'd be very grateful. I'm thinking of perhaps fading into it and doing from about 3:30 until the end of the song. It's the most dramatic. Though considering there's so much material to work with, I could conceivably do the whole song. And I know the ending is a little odd -- it's one of those songs that fades directly into the one afterwards. So... good idea/bad idea?

I think triming the song could be a good idea. With few exceptions, i find that often vids longer than 3 mins tend to repeat themselves. I have only seen B5 season 1, but I hope you'll do the vid, since i love the series already!

About the video: Whatever works best for you. I personally am not a big fan of that song (it's okay, it just doens't really do anything to me) but I'd still be more than happy to get a B5 songvid and the longer the better ;) You have a whole season to work on so I think it could easily fill the whole song, but if you want a shorter one, that's fine, too.

As for what clips to use, I can't really say. I only have the S1 dvds and S4 and S5 on self-recorded tapes, so I can't remember all the scenes the S2 and S3 have. Although I do remember that S3 was definitely one of the best seasons they made. Z'ha'dum was amazing.

Sorry, this doesn't help much, does it? I hope you can make it work, anyway :)
