grammarwoman: Nick and Charlie smile at each other (Heartstopper)
[personal profile] grammarwoman
When I said I fell hard for "Heartstopper", I mean I fell HARD. I think it was during my third watch-through that my enabling husband said, "Maybe you should start clipping as you watch?" because he knew before I did that I was going to be vidding this show. Bless him.

The reminder of More Joy Day popped up last week, so with so many "Heartstopper" feels swirling in my brain, I was helpless to resist. The fact that this got made at all is a miracle. My vidding laptop is positively ancient, so old and cranky that Vegas Pro takes 5-10 minutes to load, and every time I switched to a different application like Avidemux to clip the next several parts, or Firefox to look up something, VP would then have a hissy fit and lock up for another 5 minutes of blue-circle-not-responding before it would let me back in. I might have quit out of despair if the song had been any longer than two minutes. (That's a lie. I totally would have kept at it, but would have been even more full of ARGH about it.) I even had to uninstall and reinstall VP just to get it to let me render the last version.

So it's not the shining gem of a vid that I aimed to make, but I still loved pulling it together (aside from the technical issues) and hope that people find themselves smiling while watching. I love fandom, and I love More Joy Day, and I am maxed out on Heartstopper squee, so here you go.

This is dedicated to [personal profile] heresluck, for being a creator and sharer of joy.
