Angel and Spike.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Closer is spike and angel, it's amazing really. Sisabet's site is headtilt.com
The database has links to lots of vids , it's buffyvids.com. Neither is password protected.
The TOS vid is incredible. Great editing and a really good constructed reality.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
HA!
I need to look that up from home.

Also check out Sisabet's vid Two Words. It's really good, really dense with a lot going on, but really good.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I don't love the Spike/Angel one as much as I want to--I think maybe I know the context too well, and so I can't surrender to the vidder's interpretation. The Kirk/Spock is incredible, though. (Maybe if I knew that source as well as I know Angel, I'd have the same reaction--I dunno.)

Now I want to watch vids as soon as I get home instead of work on packing.

sisabet's "Closer" was one of the first vids that grabbed the hell out of me. Then I went to Escapade, saw my first vid show, and was doomed.

Sisabet's Clint Eastwood was one of the first vids I saw and I loved it. She doesn't have it up on her website anymore and I can't find my backup of all my vids from that period.
The very first vid I watched was a Hard core logo vid to Woke up this Morning (the song used for the Sopranos theme song).

I think so too. It's another vid that I don't think is available online anymore. Luckily I have my back up disc of those vids. I'm hoping as I pack I'll find some of these discs that I'm missing.
I've also seen vids to that song for Farscape and Buffy. The Farscape one was good, but I think the Buffy vid lacked something.
One of the things I love about vids is seeing different vidders (from the same or different fandoms) interpert the same vids. And I try to watch the different vids.
Except draw the line at 17 vids in the same fandom to the same song.
