Frequently (or not) Asked Questions
Q: What do you use to make your vids?
A: I first started out with Windows Movie Maker, but then got annoyed with it and bought Sony Vegas Movie Studio 6; later on I got Sony Vegas 7, which is what I'm currently editing with.
Q: Where did you get your clips from?
A: From a combo of ImTOO DVD Ripper Platinum 4, DVD Shrink, Auto GK, avi.NET, etc. (It's a very long process, and you don't wanna know the half of it!)
Q: What fandoms are you vidding?
A: Harry Potter
Star Wars
Yuugiou: Duel Monsters
Supernatural
Q: Why haven't you done any vids lately?
A: I do have a life outside of this. I'm still bulding strength, and I've just started my first year of college.
Q: Can I request a song/vid?
A: Go right ahead; I love getting imput. I may or may not do the song though, because I may not have heard of it, or I absolutely do not like the song, pairing, etc. Message me at my Youtube account, or email me (fierygenius@hotmail.com), and I'll let you know whether I can or not.
Q: ____________ DIDN'T HAPPEN IN CANON!
A: First of all, that's a statement, not a question. And second, these are fan videos. Not all of them will follow canon.
Q: Can I use your clips in making a vid?
A: ABSOLUTELY NOT! I worked very hard to make my vids, and I won't appreciate someone ripping apart a vid of mine to use certain parts in one of their own. That is called clip theft and is a very big no-no in vidding.
Q: Now that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is out, is that going to affect your Harry Potter vids?
A: No it will not. I'll still be doing HP vids—a lot of AU stories and fanon pairings. Yes, I know how it ended, but I will not be going by canon much—seeing as I wasn't crazy about the book (or Half-Blood Prince, for that matter).
Q: Why can't I watch some of your vids on Youtube?
A: It's not my doing. For some reason, Youtube's deleting any video that has audio from Warner Music Group.
Q: Do you have any backups in case your Youtube account gets deleted?
A: Of course. You can get a hold of me at the following: my backup Youtube account, my BAM Vid Vault account, my LiveJournal account, and of course, here at this website.
Q: WHAT THE *BLEEP*??!!?? WHY THE HELL DO YOU SUPPORT SAM/DEAN??? THAT'S INCEST!!!!!!!!!!!
A: *sarcastic gasp* ZOMG! I had no clue! (Okay, on a serious note...) Yes, I am perfectly aware that Sam and Dean are brothers. Hello, Supernatural, it's about 2 brothers. I get it. I know. But to the psychological/analytical part of my mind, their relationship is very fascinating. And, I seirously doubt after all that's been going on in the show that they're going to be able to settle down in, as Dean once put it, an "apple pie life". They've done things that some couples wouldn't do for each other. It's a bit of a guilty pleasure, sure, but it's also something that can be possible, considering the life they had growing up, and the way that they've only had each other for most of thier lives. Point is, I know, I don't care, and don't bug me about it. Seriously, I'm just gonna ignore it, so you'd be wasting your time.
