Lois & Clark Forums Forums General Discussion FoLC Productions Vid - "Opposites Attract" by Paula Abdul

Okay, there I was, blissfully minding my own business. I was being a good girl, honestly! Then WHO just HAD to come along and plant this idea in my head for a vid?

You guessed it.

EditorJax?! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!

Hee! All kidding aside (well, she DID give me the song suggestion XD) I couldn't have made this without Jenn. Clips ideas, general support, overall vid betaness (Hey, I hadn't done much vidding in the last year, and I was nervous and feeling rusty XD)

Also, carolm, Kltpzyxm, Lisamaree, Queen of the Capes, Psychofurball, and I really hope I didn't forget anyone (if so, pm me with many pointy stick men), each provided me with support (and carolm patiently heard out my frets and woes and gave help when Jenn wasn't on XD)

Okay, so, this vid is a little faster-paced than most songs I do. A lot of clips, maybe even more so than that Hot in Herre thing I did last year. And there were a lot in that one... And also, I played a bit with transitions during the instrumentals, so that's something new XD

So, Lois and Clark. All seasons are used here And, for anyone who is familiar with the lyrics, I purposefully made it Clark's POV on the woman's part, and Lois' POV on the male's. It just seemed to work so much better that way XD

So, without any further ado, here you go

Opposites Attract

I take full responsibility.

My dear Cat, you haven't lost your touch whatsoever. I LOVE this. You have such an incredible gift for making quick beats and lyrics into incredible clips that flow so amazingly well. (Case in point, the "two steps forward, two steps back" stanzas.) And you know I love the "obsessed" scenes.

And I know you worried about the instrumental section, but it's incredible. I love how you alternate between mad scenes and hot scenes.

This video so aptly depicts Lois and Clark's relationship -- she's so volatile and he's so unflappable, and yet opposites do attract!

It's hilarious and fabulous!

Wow!

Amazing!! I love your vids Cat they are always so well done, and funny.... put together like a professional.

That was a boob grope from Lois wasn't it???
It leaves me in awe how you can find the right scenes to go with the music for only 4 seasons of the show!!

More ... SOOON.... please???

Great video, thanks for sharing

YAY!!! It's done! I've been waiting very impatiently for this, and I'm happy to see that my high hopes were not dashed to pieces on the rocks.

I loved everything about it, so where do I even begin?! I really liked how you did the steps forward and steps back thing with the advancement of the relationship and then a set back. Also, you are totally right about switching the points of view. It works so much better that way...great choice! The clips you used for the "it ain't fiction" were perfect. Ooh, ooh, and I loved all the scooping up clips you used toward the end. And your transitions and effects were so well timed and perfectly used and not overused, and ok, I'm going to stop rambling now, and go watch it again.

wow!
