SVP Animation Tutorial #3 - Running Sopphires 2018-09-26 | Third and final part! This involves running, which gave me many headaches when I was starting out, as well as animating clothing as well as body parts. Again, I sped this up quite a bit, especially because I made this after the other two and had about half an hour's worth of raw footage to condense so I was very much in the frame of mind to make this as short as possible. It also involves changing keyframes, which isn't necessary, but is something I do 'cause I like how it looks for this, but I'm also not going to pretend that I understand how they work. XD As always, let me know if something needs clarifying!Time taken = 30 minutes Part #1 = youtu.be/L7SDaLCNY78Part #2 = youtu.be/bc2BB4ttIwYFan art by viria.tumblr.comSongs = Stay/The Middle mashup by Adamusic & Closer/The Middle mashup by Dj Alash
Vex + Vax - Little Bit of Love Sopphires 2023-08-08 | Wow, after over a year and a half, I have finally finished an edit that is not in someway studio related. I've been starting things and losing inspiration to finish or just not thinking they're any good. This took about 5 months for me to finally get it done, and I'm pretty happy with the end result. I love these two to death, they have very quickly become some of my favourite fictional siblings in all of media, and that plus the very intense LoVM/CR brainrot I've been having in 2023, is the only reason this got finished. Song: Little Bit of Love by Tom GrennanMedia: Vex & Vax from The Legend of Vox Machina Hopefully this has broken my mental block for finishing edits because I have so many ideas, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.Enjoy!
Multicouples - Meet Me At Our Spot [CCS worm part] Sopphires 2023-07-16 | Six months of nothing, and I'm back again! This time with a CCS worm part that's basically the length of a full edit for me so I figured I would upload it on its own. Plus, I'm actually super happy with how this turned out. This has been cooking on and off (mostly off for March-June) since February, and all the chipping away was worth it! The theme of the worm was the your most played song of 2022, and 'Meet Me at Our Spot' was mine. I still love this song so much, and it was so much fun to edit with it.Full WORM is not up yet but will be here @childhoodcreativity Ships/media used: Luz/Amity (The Owl House), Vax/Keyleth (Vox Machina), Sokka/Suki (ATLA), Roland/Lacklon (Dragon Age Absolution), Eda/Raine (Owl House), Vi/Caitlyn (Arcane), Steven/Connie (Steven Universe), Callum/Rayla (Dragon Prince), Adora/Catra (She Ra) & Dick/Babs (DC)
Tales of My Life [mep dump #43] Sopphires 2023-06-30 | Eyy, first upload of 2023, half way through the year! When I set a schedule last year of uploading MEP parts every three months, I thought there was no way I could upload less than that, but life finds a way. XD Anyway, I've been struggling with editing quite a lot this year, I never feel satisfied that what I've been making is good, so I procrastinated uploading this a lot, but I don't think the parts look as they felt when I was making them which is nice. Enjoy, and hopefully the next time I upload won't be December! Full MEPs = youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIR2-uWZg8ZrE_BHzHkC5-Mib15DnSipn0:00 @YoungEmpiresStudios 1.

No Memories [mep dump #42] Sopphires 2022-12-31 | Happy New Year's Eve! Finishing 2022 with the collection of parts for October-December's MEPs as well as cleaning out some old parts for unfinished MEPs to start off 2023 fresh. I have very hazy memories of these parts/months as I feel like I've been running on low power mode for the past three months. I got caught covid in October and then spent basically all of December ill too so things have not been super fun. Most of these parts turned out alright though! 1.

Kazuya/Atsuro - Enemy [EmpTeam Secret Santa for @ChilledAngel] Sopphires 2022-12-26 | Merry Christmas, Chilly! I'm your EmpTeam Secret Santa! I hope you're having very happy holidays right now, and that you enjoy this little gift! We don't have a whole lot of shared media, so thank you so much for sharing that folder of materials because I don't know what I would have done without it! I initially wanted to edit you Miwa because I know you love him, but I was struggling to match him with the songs you wanted, so I had a look through your other resources and settled on some angst with these two. I hope that I got the vibe right between the two of them, and that you like this! Manga editing is not my strongest (questioned my sanity a few times), but I tried my best!

Tim Drake - Wish You Were Sober [RevPro Secret Santa for @syvxnico] Sopphires 2022-12-26 | Merry Christmas, Nico! Hope you're having a good holiday! I forgot to upload this ahead of time, and I'm never on my laptop on Christmas day, so I know you've seen it, but I wanted to upload this anyway! This kinda killed me editing a little because I realised I don't know what to do when handed a blank cheque to edit fx as opposed to when someone tells me exactly what I want, but I had an absolute blast editing Timmy for you! There was a vague theme here around Tim planning for the perfect party vs the reality of him ending up blackout drunk on the floor, but I had to cut the part where I planned to make that clear because I ran out of time/inspo. Whoops. XD Anyway, you absolutely need to go check out @syvxnico, their fx editing is incredible and more than a little intimidating to make a gift for. youtube.com/@UC1XOFZD_bIKCYtUEOs-CDlw Full gift exchange = youtube.com/watch?v=wUM5HhBBT0U
Wally/Artemis, Ollie/Dinah & Conner/Cassie - Eastside [YES Secret Santa for @PrincessHawkinsxx] Sopphires 2022-12-24 | Merry Christmas, Kayla! I'm your YES secret santa! Hope you're having a lovely Christmas Eve, and that you have a happy holidays! As always with my YES SS edits, this is not the edit I started when I first got you. I originally was going more non/Disney, but I lost inspo and adore your Superboy comic edits so I decided I wanted to use him and ended up with something DC centric instead. I hope you like it! I especially hope you like this version of Dinah/Ollie because I realised after I'd started that you didn't have the Justice League cartoon on your list, so I wasn't sure if you meant comics for them, but I'd committed too much, and the episodes fit these really specific lyrics weirdly well, so I decided to gamble and hope.

Meet Me at the Ocean [mep dump #41] Sopphires 2022-09-30 | I came so close to forgetting to upload this, the past two months have been very stressful, but it's got a lot better this week, so here's my proof that I am alive and, in fact, still editing.

End of Hell [mep dump #40] Sopphires 2022-06-26 | I have basically decided that given my work life is dictated by financial quarters, I might as well just let it control my whole life so for the time being, I'll be uploading these once a quarter! Hopefully my next upload will not be in another three months, I've been trying really hard to make personal edits because I want to, but I'm struggling because I either (a) lose focus or (b) despise it because I think my editing looks like shit, so yeah... We'll see if that changes, if not, I'll see you again at the end of September before I go into reporting hell! XD 0:00 1.

Holiday Carnival [mep dump #38] Sopphires 2021-12-31 | Final collection of the year! The first half of the year has basically blended into my memories of 2020 because time is still super meaningless. Also, in the past three months, I finished my old job, started a new job, started a podcast, wrote 60k and made 11 of these 12 parts, so it's been busy. I don't really know if I've managed to improve at editing that much in 2021, I think I've kinda stalled, but I've also been editing a bit less, especially after starting to write properly again. Hopefully I will improve more in 2022. (And I will make no other hopes for 2022 because I don't want to jinx it.) Anyway, have a Happy New Year, and enjoy! 1.

Multicouples - 8 Letters [Secret Santa for XxmarvelgirlxX] Sopphires 2021-12-24 | Merry Christmas, Andrea! I'm your YES secret santa for the second year in a row! I was legitimately so confused for a moment when I drew your name and thought I must be on the 2020 page but nope, you're just stuck with me! XD Anyway, I tried to make it as different to last year as possible with all new ships and a different style and hopefully more angst for you?Anyway, I know I say this all time, but like, your editing consistently blows me away, it's always incredible! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, New Year and 2022! (Also, bless your Let Me Down Slowly AMV for letting me know what all the Oikage scenes were and just for inspiration in general, so you have yourself to thank for this gift!)

Alex/Henry & Wilhelm/Simon - Perfect Sopphires 2021-12-05 | This has been sitting almost finished on my laptop for, like, two to three months, and I finally decided to change the one thing that I didn't like and upload this because I still like it. This is basically just a catalogue of the parallels between Alex/Henry from Red, White and Royal Blue and Wilhelm/Simon from Young Royals set to 'Perfect' by One Direction because there are a funny amount.Both these media are about a gay, European prince and their mixed race, Latin American heritage love interest, but where Red, White and Royal Blue is a new adult romcom, Young Royals is a teen drama, and I love them both a lot! Red, White and Royal Blue is still one of my favourite books at the moment, and I cannot wait for Young Royals season 2!

Jayce/Viktor & Catilyn/Vi - Berenstein Sopphires 2021-11-25 | Jayce/Viktor & Caitlyn/Vi from Arcane to 'Berenstein' by The Band Camino. Well, I am very surprised that I have finished an edit whilst a show is still relevant. I am also very surprised that I loved Arcane as much as I did because I know nothing about League, but angrypotato's Viktor and Jayce edit got me curious, and I kept hearing the animation was great, so I stuck it on in the back when I was writing, and then I binged it all in one day, and now I love all the characters and this world and can't wait for season 2. Anyway, this is very raw, but hopefully it looks okay. I've been editing this every available moment for the past few days because I really loved the dynamics of these relationships over the course of the season and needed to edit the angst. Really thought the angst would be more extreme with Viktor and Jayce, totally thought Viktor was going to become an evil scientist by the end, and that they'd be enemies. I'm glad they're still science bros, at least for now. Hopefully this will have helped the Arcane brainrot I've been having so I can go back to focusing on other things. Enjoy!#fanvidfeed #arcane
A3! Walk Me Home (& 2 scrap edits that are longer than the actual one) Sopphires 2021-11-06 | I meant to post this at the start of the week to coincide with A3! En's end, but I'm doing NaNoWriMo, I was behind on MEP parts, and we have been having nightmare problems with audio on podcasting, so I just kept forgetting. Anyways, I made Walk Me Home when I was stressed because this was my comfort game through the pandemic, and I just needed the warm, fuzzy vibes it gives me. The other two edits are old unfinished edits that I've had sitting around for ages, and I figured I might as well upload them now because I know I'll never get back round to them. 0:00 Walk Me Home by P!nk 0:24 Sanctuary by Welshy Arms1:03 Falling by Chase Atlantic
Haunted Demons [mep dump #37] Sopphires 2021-10-31 | This is what happens when I don't upload an MEP pack for several months (some of these are from June...). It's been busy: hard drive died and lost 75% of my editing stuff, contract ended, started a podcast with some friends, and I kept procrastinating this, but Halloween finally motivated me to get this rendered.

Dick/Babs - Kiss Me More Sopphires 2021-09-19 | It's been a while since I posted one of these. My contract ends in a few weeks, so job applications have been sapping all my time and energy, but I enjoyed making this part for Trish's bday MEP, and I wanted to extend it, and then I found I only had the energy for an extra 20 seconds, and I think it's really obvious which section was the MEP part. I still enjoyed editing it though, I haven't edited these two in ages, and I still love them. Song: Kiss Me More by Doja Cat ft. SZA Footage: DC comics Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=ahVqTnlOGaY (go watch it, it's amazing!)Trish's channel = youtube.com/c/heymonwebejammin I endlessly watched her Atlantis edit when making this.#fanvidfeed
Multicouples - 8 Letters MEP Sopphires 2021-08-05 | Wow, aside from Youtube screwing up the sign up, this might be the smoothest MEP I've ever hosted!

Dance Waves [mep dump #36] Sopphires 2021-06-29 | Between the football and Youtube messing up my MEP sign up, I have forgotten to render and upload this twice. Somehow there are always more parts than I expect. Some of these were from as far back as late April, but just couldn't be uploaded until now. 1. boxedkat37 || 'Heat Waves' by Glass Animals - Hisao/Guillaume (Morning Glories)Theme: LGBT+ shipsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=3IgBieKA62AI couldn't sign up for YES' MEP with this song so I'm glad I got to take part in this. I had a lot of fun messing with motion blur to try and create a slightly hazy feel. 2. YES || 'Crush Culture' by Conan Gray - Roshanna Chatterji (DC) & Lucretia (The Adventure Zone: Balance)Theme: asexual charactersFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=po5mbQYCJZcFan art credits: glowbat.tumblr.com, http://snuffysbox.tumblr.com, http://art-sicordial.tumblr.com, ram-magic.tumblr.com, http://spider-bones.tumblr.com, http://ueeyasu.tumblr.comI can't believe I never thought of this song as an asexual anthem before. 3. GS || 'Sucker for You' by Matt Terry - Patrick Jane (The Mentalist)Theme: childhood crushes/childhood crush that helped you figure out you were LGBT+Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=xmMHTV26WnoI originally didn't think I could take part in this MEP because I'm very aroace, and I've never had crushes on people, but then I asked Sol if I could use the character my friend had a crush on because my friend's crush on this character sparked an internal anxious meltdown at the fact that I didn't crush on people that led to me figuring out I was ace. Also, I haven't seen this show in years so I just downloaded random episodes and hoped for the best. 4. YES || 'Umbrella' by Rhianna - Connie/Steven (Steven Universe)Theme: interracial ships Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=3BQ7pOhGBfQI had to use these two for this because if we were doing an MEP celebrating interracial relationships, I wanted to use characters that matched up with my parents.5. Missy || 'Love Story' by Taylor Swift - Percy/Annabeth (PJO)Theme: childhood ships for LenaFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=zZF24VIS2_oFan art credit: viria.tumblr.com 6. xXDiceyShipping || 'Anywhere But Here' by SafetySuit - Jaime/Brienne (Game of Thrones)Theme: live action ships for LenaFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=UXMdsINrkt47. SilentStormfall || 'Once in a Lifetime' by All Time Low - Jaime/Brienne (Game of Thrones)Theme: HBD LenaFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=c4rg0A_1rdUI did not intend to join this many of the surprise Lena MEPs, but the song and theme choices were too good and nostalgic. 8. PokeLSouma || 'Favourite Place' by All Time Low - Wanda/Vision (MCU), Jaime/Brienne (Game of Thrones), Clint/Natasha (MCU) & Will/Lyra (HDM)Theme: HBD LenaFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=rOQYJP-vq30I came so close to not putting Will and Lyra on their bench at the "favourite place", and I'd never have forgiven myself if I hadn't. 9. GS || 'Mystery of Love' by Sufjan Stevens - Will/Lyra (His Dark Materials)Theme: forest/garden/flower aesthetic Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=ANNhi-6-8SoFan art credit: dreamingpartone.tumblr.comThis MEP is so peaceful and pretty! 10. DVS || 'We Don't Have to Dance' by Andy Black - Yamaguchi Tadashi (Haikyuu!!)Theme: fear, anxiety Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=J3T5cfpBCKoHad fun trying some new things here11. CCS || 'Take Her From You' by Dev - Korra/Kuvira (Legend of Korra) Theme: antagonist/protagonist femslashFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=Vg2XMlp1J0U12. YES || 'End Credits' by EDEN - Tangled: The SeriesTheme: final episode of a tv seriesFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=Z91mRBKX-TcHad this whole collection rendered, uploaded and ready to go, and then I realised I forgot this part, busy being distracted by football again...
Wannabe Unsaid [mep dump #35] Sopphires 2021-05-31 | My brain is fried, just turned in a 4500 word business report I had to research and write in my own time these past few months, have these parts from March-May. I look forward to having energy and motivation again. 0:00 1. GS || 'Wannabe' by ITZY - Me (in picrew form) Theme: PicrewsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=LBjaHW-2X6QPicrew credit: picrew.me/image_maker/466657, picrew.me/image_maker/344854, picrew.me/image_maker/262676, picrew.me/image_maker/380116, picrew.me/image_maker/616269, picrew.me/image_maker/240997, picrew.me/image_maker/701767, picrew.me/image_maker/165093This was such a cool theme idea, and the outcome was super fun. My favourite thing about this is that I don't think a single one of these picrews has the same skin colour, the joys of being an unspecified shade of beige! 0:08 2. GS || 'Unsaid' by Flor - Kumiko/Reina (Hibike Euphonium!) Theme: MEP part collabFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=r5lJkeH1FdACollab partner: youtube.com/user/PokeLSouma Another fun theme from GS where each part was a collab with another studio member. I was super lucky to get partnered with Lena, and we couldn't use our shared book/live action ships, but it was really fun to work with this anime that I haven't edited in years.0:27 3. DannyPhantomSG1 || 'Bang!' by AJR - Clint Barton (Hawkeye 2012) Theme: Marvel/DC comic book charactersFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=t5IuWqUWPqM&t=1sThis part was by far and away the most fun I had with editing in May. This song fits disaster!Clint so much, and I enjoyed playing with the comic book style. It turned out much better than my previous effort from March that's later on. 0:38 4. MystieDream || 'Who Do U Love' by Monsta X - Bruce + Jason (DC)Theme: HBD xHita! Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=vLaZk6qUcscBirthday girl: youtube.com/user/XHitajumoThe full MEP looks incredible. I really like the start of my part, I spent ages on it, and the rest of it I had no ideas for and kinda just made it up as I went.0:47 5. CoRS || 'Mr Brightside' by The Killers - Nadia/Lucio (Arcana)Theme: toxic relationshipsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=0tUu9gORb10This MEP was cursed, but I enjoyed editing these two. They're a disaster together. Fan art credit: bastart13.tumblr.com, anotveryluciddream.tumblr.com, rusavia.artstation.com, twitter.com/momorbida0:55 6. Pepliok || 'Universe' by Loona - Finn/Poe (Star Wars)Theme: HBD Noel!Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=5Sz4MTDf1UwBirthday girl: youtube.com/c/nonellekeFinally edited these two with the movies! 1:05 7. BFLS || 'Decade of Pop' by DJ Earworm - Marvel/DC Theme: BFLS 10 Year Anniversary! Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=wAWStg6X7CIIt was BFLS' 10th Anniversary in 2020, but true to form, we were late.1:23 8. PHtrisyia || 'Hard Feelings' by Lorde - Mitsuha/Taki (Your Name)Theme: anime couples Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=vG2e_ckRpm4I can't believe this is the first thing I've uploaded with Your Name. It's one of my favourite animated movies, but I've just never really edited until now. 1:36 9. YES || 'Forever' by CHVRCHES - Mako/Korra (Legend of Korra)Theme: Enemies to Lovers or Non-Canon CouplesFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=EHdoUyyvAmQI have enjoyed editing with early season Korra again. 1:49 10. YES || 'Another Love' by Tom Odell - Zuko (ATLA)Theme: character that had been through a lot (trauma/loss/breakup) that totally broke them, and they can't heal of that/ have to live with the consequences of it & is afraid to love again.Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=nqbPWT4G6L0This part was made on v. low energy, but I don't think it looks too bad all things considered. 2:03 11. DVS || 'Castle' by Halsey - Zoya Nazyalensky (Grishaverse)Theme: follow the lyrics and focus on one characterFull MEP = coming soonFan art credit: zethia.tumblr.com, instagram.com/jaded.draws, saintprivateer.tumblr.com, thehighlordzu.tumblr.comLow energy part #2. I've been struggling with this one for months, but it finally got done.
Alex/Henry - History Sopphires 2021-04-11 | An Alex/Henry from 'Red, White and Royal Blue' by Casey McQuinston to History cover by A.C.E. Fan art by Kidovna (instagram.com/kidovna) & vkelleyart (instagram.com/vkelleyart). I apologise for anything that's off-beat. The song was basically blocked worldwide, and I had to slow this cover to get it to fit because all the covers of the song were shorter than the original song somehow? Anyway, I listened to this audiobook last week, and I absolutely loved it. I started re-listening to it straight away and wanted to edit it, and this song is perfect. The premise is basically, what if the son of the American president fell in love with a prince of England, and it's a really good ride. It's more optimistic than I would be about this turning out well in real life, but I'd also have been so sad if it ended badly so I can't complain. Anyway, I really recommend the book, especially if you're interested in a LGBT+ romance, and please check out the wonderful artists! It was Kidovna's art that got me interested in the book in the first place. Enjoy!#fanvidfeed #redwhiteandroyalblue
Drivers Empire [mep dump #34] Sopphires 2021-03-30 | I meant to post this on Sunday, but I uploaded it, wrote 95% of the description and then got distracted. Anyway, March is somehow already over, it's been over a year since the first lockdown where I am, and time has truly lost all meaning. 1. GS || 'Sunkissed' by khai dreams - Hisoka/Homare (A3!)Theme: video game ships Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=JRwcS4fMDiUFan art credit: instagram.com/p/CC-v8VQH5qK, pixiv.net/en/artworks/73498489, pixiv.net/en/artworks/83840629Made this back in February because whilst being stuck in a lockdown during gloomy winter, editing soft, summer vibes was both a blessing and a curse. This whole MEP looks amazing! 2. 4verNami || 'Numb' by Meg Myers - Aaron Williams (my OC, face-claim Keiynan Lonsdale - Dance Academy, Love, Simon & The Flash)Theme: OCsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=AD5tP7guPw0I could talk for ages about this part, making it was an experience. The fact that I switched characters because I thought I had the footage only to discover I misremembered parts of Love, Simon so I had to download 720p episodes of Dance Academy (a show I've never watched) off YouTube and hope for the best. Or that I don't remember how to use photo editing software so I had to make fake news articles in Vegas. Or that I ended up merging two stories, and I'm now writing a new story offshooting from those, and it's all I can think about right now. Oh, and that everyone's OCs were kind of dark and mine was just a sad teenager. So, yeah, first time editing an OC, had fun, 10/10, do recommend. 3. YES || 'Looking At Me' by Sabrina Carpenter - Tahno (Legend of Korra)Theme: cocky/vain/showy characters w/ neon aestheticFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=5P3FnDqDfRIThis is the first MEP I've hosted for YES, and it's so good. Everyone absolutely killed it. I'm so excited about it. I've had this song stuck in my head since the SNS audition video, and I couldn't make it work on my own so I tossed it in for the MEP poll on a whim, and I'm so glad I did! 4. YES || 'Reforget' by Lauv - Dick/Babs (Nightwing (2016))Theme: couples where one person has forgotten the other and/or is mind controlled/malfunctioned over to the dark sideFull MEP = youtu.be/CMlCNLyr-fQI never thought I would edit with Ric, but here we are... This was actually pretty fun, even if I hate this story line. There was actually a point where Dick was mind-controlled evil whilst an amnesiac, but I couldn't be bothered with fight scenes. 5. YES || 'Driver's License' by Olivia Rodrigo - Carmen/Gray (Carmen Sandiego) Theme: angsty couplesFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=9KawtuSqOqcTrish may have made the definitive edit with these two to this song, but I still wanted to do it. 6. YES || 'Roman Empire' by Missio - Teddy Altman (Marvel)Theme: royalty Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=J5_AYQyq3wMColouring credit: 'Contrast' by XxAmity0ParkxXI didn't initially know who to use when ATLA and SPOP got taken, but then I remembered that Teddy is King Dorrek the something, King of Space, and that he's a badass that doesn't get enough love. 7. DVS || 'Dynasty' by MIIA - Jean, Sasha + Connie (Attack on Titan) & Jason + Nico (Heroes of Olympus)Theme: angstFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=hpwLHjoQz8gFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/1MtVaPY9cyCWVS4XQXbFhBotltDNXxl0OIXOBXgX-GLA/edit?usp=sharingI picked dead friends as my choice of angst. 8. 4verNami || 'Trouble' by Welshly Arms - Will Parry & Lee Scoresby (His Dark Materials)Theme: Multi-male Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=Y4AY5tXCzJkBirthday MEP for Nami. Could not pick between these two so I just ended up using both.
Wanda/Vision - Ghost Of You Sopphires 2021-03-14 | Spoilers for Wandavision!! WandaVision edit to 'Ghost of You' by 5 Seconds of Summer. Colouring by 'Surreal' by Samz Delights. I'd say that I'm late to the WandaVision edits, but honestly, a week after the finale is pretty speedy for me. Plus, (like always) this is not the first edit I started, but that was slow going, and I really like this song and wanted to edit with it, so I decided to switch and do this 'cause I thought it'd be quicker. Anyway, I absolutely loved this show. The whole sitcom idea was really fun, and a clever way to showcase Wanda dealing with her grief. It also got me super invested in Wanda and Vision's relationship, and I loved seeing them actually get to be parents to Billy and Tommy. Also, please let all the Disney+ shows are this good because Hawkeye and Ms Marvel are my favourite characters, and I need their shows to be good.Colouring: Surreal by Samz Delightsyoutube.com/channel/UCA7J6IFqhLPDCdB8NKpCiMQ#fanvidfeed #wandavision #mcu
Emma - You Are Loved Sopphires 2021-03-06 | Manga spoilers from The Promised Neverland (maybe??). A variety of Emma-centric relationships from The Promised Neverland to 'You Are Loved' by Stars Go Dim. My Fridays recently have been being hyped about Wandavision and then being disappointed by the Promised Neverland season 2. So naturally, I edited TPN first. I was actually anime only for this show, I loved season 1, but I didn't go read the manga because I tend to just stick with whatever medium I first encounter the series in. But I started getting bad vibes from season 2 around episode 3, which got worse after episode 4, and then Norman showed up in episode 5, and it was just so anticlimactic and wrong, so I went and binge read the manga twice in, like, two weeks, and now I'm sad about the anime. I'm just so baffled about the anime. Like they cut so much, and then they just picked back up and are basically adapting the manga, but the context is different, so none of it hits the same. It's just so bizarre. I keep waiting for the moment where their decision to make changes hits and makes sense, and it just hasn't come, and with only three episodes left, I cannot see how they can possibly wrap this show up satisfyingly. The manga isn't perfect, but it's a lot better than this, and Goldypond (which they cut) is the best arc after the Gracefield House/Escape arc. Also it has Yugo, who fits my favourite tropes of having a redemption arc and regains his hope and becomes a father figure to the kids. I am so glad I read the manga after seeing the anime because I would have been so gutted for him being cut. Anyway, I have rambled for too long, I've just had a lot of thoughts about this series bouncing around inside my head for several weeks. Doing a full edit with manga was hard, but I kind got of into it by the second half. Enjoy! #fanvidfeed #thepromisedneverland #yakusokunonebarando
Accidentally Levitating [mep dump #33] Sopphires 2021-02-28 | Short month, many parts. Thank you all the people that upload their Valentine's Day sign ups well in advance, it meant I basically had all of my Valentine's Day parts done at the end of January. 1. PokeLSouma || 'Happily Ever After' by He Is We - Will/Lyra (His Dark Materials)Theme: Book Couples Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=6xXdUEbBRb4Fan art credit: dreamingpartone.tumblr.comFirst of four Valentine's Day MEP parts I made. I absolutely love book-themed MEPs, and the book/fairytale aesthetic was really fun to work with! Also, these two fit this song so well. 2. YES || 'Break My Heart' by Dua Lipa - Catra/Adora (She Ra)Theme: break ups & love/hate relationshipsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=o6H0nQ6u_wQI'm really proud of the typography in this one. I'm trying to improve it when I use clips and my cartoon editing generally. 3. Acinit || 'Bitter and the Sweetness' by The Ready Set - Catra/Adora (She Ra)Theme: Valentine's Day/lovecoreFull MEP = coming soon (hopefully)Fan art credit: instagram.com/kaerethI had a lot of fun with this one, and I'm so excited to see the whole MEP! 4. QS || 'Accidentally in Love' by Counting Crows - Kaminari/Jirou (BNHA)Theme: Valentine's DayFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=iqMB5AizYnoFan art credit: pixiv.net/en/users/36155556 , pixiv.net/member.php?id=1939022, nibu-i.tumblr.com, rosikichan.tumblr.com, chalala-chan.tumblr.com, twitter.com/Xixyuuuuuu, pixiv.net/member.php?id=651376This song is such an old-school banger. Also, this is somehow the first time I've edited KamiJirou, even though I love them. 5. GS || 'Levitating' by Dua Lipa - Finn/Poe (Star Wars)Theme: Space aestheticFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=nQNKrEU10vk&t=45sFan art credit: twitter.com/MollyOstertag, deviantart.com/lemonfroop, hammerings.tumblr.com, deviantart.com/hheisttI've been low-key wanting to edit these two to this song since I first heard, so I'm really glad I got the chance, and the whole MEP looks incredible. 6. heymonwebejammin || 'You & Jennifer' by bulow - Asami/Mako/Korra (Legend of Korra)Theme: cartoon love triangles Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=xmQpLv153DEMy first time actually editing this iconic love triangle, and I had a lot of fun watching 7 year old edits so I could find the right scenes. It was also my first go editing with a style guide that wasn't for something with a heavy fx theme, and it has a really cool effect on the overall look and vibe of the MEP. 7. boxedkat37 || 'Oh Death' by SUGR? - Wally/Artemis (Young Justice)Theme: cartoon couples that ended in breakup or death Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=b6Ovx610ZqIWally and Artemis fit this theme perfectly, and I feel like it really shows I made this part at the same time/after 'You & Jennifer'. 8. DPSG1 || 'Ghost Town' by Layton & Neoni - Deadman (Batman: Brave and the Bold & Justice League Dark) Theme: multifandom ghostsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=rYbD3QxIK9cLiv's been hosting a series of really cool MEPs. I missed the one I wanted to join, but it was fun doing this one and the one below with really fun, specific themes.9. DPSG1 || 'Therefore I Am' by Billie Eilish - Shiro clone (Voltron)Theme: cartoon clonesFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=QAnot2QaCqc10. Sarge || 'In the Mouth of Madness' by John Carpenter - Get OutTheme: Horror Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=WkNEHTaL6QoI decided to challenge myself a bit this year and joined an MEP that was completely outside of my normal comfort zone. I'm really glad that I did because I actually found this quite easy when I got into it. The hardest part was choosing what to put in the part because I love this film so much, and there's so many good shots. If you haven't seen Get Out, you need to. It's a horror film where the horror is systemic racism. 11. CCS || 'Be Alright' by Dean Lewis - Rose/Pearl (Steven Universe)Theme: couples that didn't quite work outFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=PaA5XBb9e74Almost forgot to put this in the collection. This is a part I made a while ago for CCS that I hadn't decided when to upload, and then the full MEP came out this month. I started off with Jetara moved to Zutara and then finished with these two.
Carmen/Gray - Theres No Way Sopphires 2021-02-14 | Carmen/Gray (Carmen Sandiego) to 'There's No Way' by Lauv ft. Julia Michaels. Finally, I made a Red Crackle edit! I wanted to edit these two since the finale, but I didn't have a song that fit them. I'm really glad I waited for the right song because editing this was so easy when I came across it a few weeks ago, and I figured it'd make a good Valentine's Day edit. I really like how this turned out, and I really enjoyed season 5 as well. I wish it had been a little longer. There were so many status quo changes, it would have been nice to stay with some of them an episode or so longer, but the ending was still satisfying, and I enjoyed the bittersweetness of the ending. I was inspired by all of these lovely edits from my fellow YES members:boxedkat37 = youtube.com/watch?v=rckt3nD0F_Q heymonwebejammin = youtube.com/watch?v=j__E5fTBKJI heymonwebejammin = youtube.com/watch?v=jxZY1kWKAzoKitsuKitx = youtube.com/watch?v=dL3OsdS2D8sjustanother = youtube.com/watch?v=92z5a6myqIkColouring by xXAmity0ParkXxAnyway, Happy Valentine's Day, and enjoy!#fanvidfeed #redcrackle #carmensandiegoseason4
Jean, Sasha + Connie - Alone Together [4x08] Sopphires 2021-02-04 | Spoilers for Attack on Titan season 4!!! "But you two are special to me"..."Sasha is dead"Song: Alone Together by Fall Out Boy I'm still emotionally recovering from this episode. I got spoiled for what was going to happen a few weeks in advance (largely because I was making this video, and I was Googling for Sasha scenes), and I spent them trying to convince myself that it wasn't true because I love Sasha so much. I didn't even know I was super attached to her and this trio in general until season 3 came out, and I suddenly realised that there were no dispensable characters anymore. I had a horrible feeling that something might happen to her or Connie (please no manga spoilers!) because they seemed like the least plot relevant characters left, but still, I was not ready for this. In a way, I'm kind of glad for the spoiler so it didn't hit me out of nowhere. I'm glad I started this video before the fourth season aired, and I started re-watching the series and loved every second of these three. Anyway, I have absolutely loved this season so much! It's been amazing, and I love that they put me in a situation where one of my favourite characters is killed, but I can't even be mad at the person that killed her because Gabi is just Eren from season 1. You know exactly where she's coming from, and I love that the narrative puts you in this bind. I'm so excited for where this is going. Both the season 4 things that got spoiled for me so far (Sasha and Zeke) happened in episode 8, so I'm going in for the rest of this blind, and I'm so excited! Also, apologise for the audio editing. I did it myself, and it comes out slightly different when I play it on a media player in my laptop to when I upload it to Youtube, so this is actually the third or so version I've uploaded, and I've decided to settle for this quality. I really want to make another Sasha edit, but I've got a Red Crackle edit that's almost done that I put aside to finish this, so I wanna get that done first, but then maybe more Sasha provided season 4 doesn't throw something new at me to distract my attention. Anyways, enjoy!#fanvidfeed #attackontitanseason4
Fallen Wires [mep dump #32] Sopphires 2021-01-30 | MEP time of the month again! 0:00 1. Me || 'Getting Over You' by Lauv - Will/Lyra (His Dark Materials)Theme: canon couples that aren't endgame (or thereabouts)Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=nQDY-QXG3AoFan art credit: dreamingpartone.tumblr.comThis was finally finished up at the start of the month, and I absolutely love how it turned out! 0:17 2. GS || 'Rumble' by Zayde Wolf - Yamaguchi Tadashi (Haikyuu!!) Theme: Haikyuu!! Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=ndnQLqQeon0This was my first time trying raw fx, I normally like to keep them separate, but seeing everyone's parts as they came in, I felt like I needed to push myself. I'm really happy with how my part turned out (especially the breathing), and the full MEP is absolutely amazing!! 0:22 3. CoRS || 'Fallen Leaves' by Billy Talent - Autumn Troupe (A3!) Theme: leaves/trees/scenery & sepia Full MEP = youtu.be/L5noUmDgEAEUghh, this was a struggle. My Vegas hated this project file, and sepia was not fun, but I do like how it turned out in the end after I restarted the project three times. Also, because I'm an idiot, I did not make the connection between Autumn Troupe and falling leaves until someone else pointed it out to me. 0:32 4. HiddenTopaz || 'Baddest' by K/DA - Chigage Utsuki (A3!)Theme: badass characters & flat text/elementsFull MEP = coming soonI picked this up as a backup and had a lot of fun doing it. I found it a little hard to get the theme so I just watched all the other parts a lot to get my head around it. 0:39 5. heymonwebejammin || 'Potential Breakup Song' (explicit version) by Aly & AJ - Dick/Babs (Young Justice & BTAS)Theme: cartoon shipsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=tNLbFLiQcy8This came out amazing!! Everyone's text and effects look incredible. Also, fun fact, that flash at the start where the pink goes darker, I did not do that. I have no idea how it got there, so I think it's a glitch from Vegas, and I just love that it glitched perfectly in time. 0:52 6. YES || 'You Broke Me First' by Conor Maynard (cover) - Zuko + Katara (ATLA)Theme: person A is betrayed by B and is too angry to forgive them.Full MEP = youtu.be/Djg5-LKZxIMcolouring: xXAmity0ParkXxI had to edit these two the moment I heard the theme because it fits their arc perfectly, and I feel like I haven't edited Avatar in a while. It was also nice to edit something so raw. 1:04 7. QS || 'Six Shooter' by Coyote Kisses - Kirishima EijirouTheme: happy birthday ChloeFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=hR72MGacdSIFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/12wHYFVit8RVH9AQvtkOYmvl_Kw3xBuvpyOAk8f4dw8k/edit?usp=sharingI had a lot of fun editing this, and the vibe of the whole MEP is great! 1:16 7. DVS || 'Wires' by The Neighbourhood - Touya Todoroki (BNHA), Yamaguchi Tadashi (Haikyuu!!) & Jaime Lannister (Game of Thrones)Theme: characters with mental health problemsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=-49cFNWRSuIFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/1yqZhpCjRZInp_MiZJ9-V954SgIw0ifNFo4lAhYjeB3k/edit?usp=sharingOoof, I've been hosting this MEP for a long time, so I'm really happy to have it finished. I initially wanted to edit the manga for the first two parts, but they wouldn't work for me until I changed. The full MEP looks really good, and it was a nice change of pace because I normally host more upbeat MEPs. #fanvidfeed
Wally/Artemis - Want You Back [Happy birthday, Neh!] Sopphires 2021-01-21 | Happy birthday, Neh!! Here is a little Wally/Artemis edit to 'Want You Back' by 5SOS. I apologise it's a bit shorter than I wanted it to be, but basically, I started this back in December, but then I didn't like how it was going so I started something else, and then I didn't like how that was going, so I started a third project, and then I didn't like how that one was turning out either, and by that point it was the beginning of January, so I panicked and rushed to finish this one in time given the chaos that that is the covid-stricken postal service made getting your actual presents to you on the right day very uncertain! Anyway, happy birthday again! I love you as much as that baby is cursed! XD (I couldn't not put it in when I was editing with this episode. I was very tempted to make it the thumbnail!) I hope you have an amazing! You're a wonderful friend that I am so, so lucky to have in my life! Thank you for all the joy and chaos that you bring!

Survivin the Devil [mep dump #31] Sopphires 2020-12-31 | Happy New Year's Eve and goodbye 2020! Like everyone, I'm glad to be seeing the back of 2020, even though it hasn't been the too bad for me all things considered. YouTube, particularly chatting and collabing, has once more been a bright spot for me. Thank you all for your support in 2020! 0:00 1. GS || 'If I Can't Have You' by Shawn Mendes - Harry/Draco (Harry Potter)Theme: Secret Santa for Pepliok Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=RuNgyg-39Mo Fan art credit: sadfishkid.tumblr.com & upthehillart.tumblr.com I had a lot of fun editing this part, and I really like how it turned out! I tried out some new effects/movements, and they actually worked out so that was nice. The whole MEP is amazing, I have watched it so many times! 0:09 2. QS || Megamix - Dabi/Hawks (BNHA)Theme: Secret Santa for XxNerdyAnimeLoverxXFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=Zy6yUG_Y4YM Fan art credit: keiid.tumblr.com, kadeart.tumblr.com & instagram.com/aurabirds Apologies if the audio is hard to hear, it rendered quieter than I expected. I also had a lot of fun with this part and editing these two. I caught up with the manga recently, and now I have a lot of feelings about them so the moment I saw them on Nerdy's list, I picked the angstiest part for them.0:20 3. YES || 'Christmas Drag' by I Don't Know How They Found Me - Will/Lyra (His Dark Materials)Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=0G2VFidPXiw Theme: Christmas/Holiday MEP Fan art credit: dreamingpartone.tumblr.com I cannot stop editing these two right now, and if my Getting Over You part was finished, you would see that I also kind of have a problem with putting them in scenery and film effects. XD 0:32 4. YES || 'New Year's Eve' by Pale Waves - Lance/Allura (VLD) Full MEP = youtu.be/LhUhsezMGC4Theme: an emotional new year’s eve that ends in heartbreak or yearningThe colouring for this was a nightmare. The idea was dark reds/purples/blues like the music video for the song, so I ran with purple, but the space heaven scenes were so bright whilst the tree scenes were super dark that it was a real pain.0:53 5. DPSG1 || 'Survivin' by Bastille - His Dark Materials (S2) Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=A8TD6IUM_D0Theme: A 2020 tribute to welcome 2021This MEP was only media that came out in 2020 and helped you get through the year. HDM, Haikyuu and A3! definitely played a large part in me getting through 3 lockdowns and going into 2021 in one. 1:04 6. QS || 'Street Fight' by Smallpools - Todoroki/Kaminari (BNHA)Theme: Happy birthday NoelFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=n6RQhbjVi2Y Fan art credit: instagram.com/sun.tails, twitter.com/_krisschan, terrakickz.tumblr.com & instagram.com/_monomercy_My actual part for this MEP got cut, but luckily it was practically the same as this part so I just had to rejig some things and change the typography to make this one.1:18 7. DVS || 'Angel with a Shotgun' by The Cab - Mando + Baby Yoda (Mandalorian), Nikolai/Zoya (Grishaverse) & Winter Troupe (A3!)Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=ZHCL8lmJj0ATheme: families/couplesFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/1gh7n-afJZUC0EGYkcBxdffGlc04OToaNFj7zsKA16S4/edit?usp=sharing You can really tell which part I made the week when I had no inspiration. I'm surprised that I've never edited Mando and Baby Yoda before because I am weak for found family/adoptive parents. If Zoya is not queen of Ravka in 2021, I will be extremely disappointed. Also, I made this part before Chapter 8 of A3! came out so I didn't know anything about Guy other than that he was from the same country as Citron, but now having read it, god does this song fit so well for his arc! 2:11 8. SubtleTruthStudios || 'Blood//Water' by Grandson - His Dark MaterialsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=5bFSoYgxi7MTheme: actionI've had the idea of editing this song to His Dark Materials for ages because "the price of your greed is your son and your daughter" just screams Asriel to me, but I was too scared of the instrumental section to ever start it, so I'm glad to finally edit this song! Please go check out our first MEP! I'm so excited for our future projects. 2:19 9. YES || 'I Fell in Love with the Devil' by Avril Lavigne - Merle/John (TAZ: Balance)Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=7i_UbaTptqsTheme: toxic/unhealthy couples Fan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/1oOD-uYfSgzT_nPbNdtvDQkYs_K-CNjEK5rinp51ww6U/edit?usp=sharingThese parts are over a year old, they're from 2019, but I actually still really like them, so that's nice!
Lee Scoresby - Scared of the Dark [2x07] Sopphires 2020-12-27 | Spoilers for the season 2 finale of His Dark Materials! I had so many songs I wanted to edit HDM with, and I was waiting for the season 2 finale for certain scenes, and now none of those edits are working out like I planned, but I really want to edit with my time off, so I was flicking around for sad songs in my Spotify library and rediscovered 'Scared of the Dark' from the Spiderverse soundtrack, and it really works for Lee. Anyway, I'm still very emotional about the season 2 finale. I've been emotionally preparing myself for Lee's death since before the first season even started, but I still wasn't ready, especially when they used Hester's final line from the book... I swear, watching Klaus immediately after on netflixparty saved me because Margu's smile can cure all ills! XD Also, the first MEP from the HDM collab studio I co-lead with EchoOfDarkness is up, and it looks really good! youtube.com/watch?v=5bFSoYgxi7MI hope to make more HDM edits, particularly a Lee + Lyra one because their relationship is everything to me (although this basically turned out a Lee and Lyra edit anyway), but we'll have to see how that pans out. Enjoy! #fanvidfeed #hisdarkmaterials #hdm #leescoresby
Jean/Scott, Zuko/Katara & Catra/Adora - Wolves [for XxmarvelgirlxX] Sopphires 2020-12-24 | My YES secret santa for xxmarevlgirlxx: Merry Christmas! I hope you like it! I was very excited to be your secret Santa, and I apologise that your gift is so short. With me being me, I was originally making a different edit using the cartoons that was a minute long, but I didn't really like how it was turning out, so I ended up switching to this, which I think is a lot better! Anyway, I think we've known each other for about two years now, and I've loved it since I first saw it, and the rate at which you improve blows my mind. Like I know that I say that to you a lot, but it's really true, and your editing now looks stunning, and I know it's only going to keep getting better!

Jaime/Brienne - Half Light Sopphires 2020-12-13 | A Jaime/Brienne edit to 'Half Light' by BANNERS. I enjoy it when I surprise myself with what I edit next, but basically PokeLSouma did a YPIV to this song, and I just could not get it out of my head, and I thought it was perfect for the ending that the show decided to give these two. These two have been on my brain recently because I watch a lot of video essays when I edit and finally got around to watching Lindsay Ellis' videos on Game of Thrones, which I didn't watch at the time because I'd marinated in anymore salt over how the series ended I probably would have died, which reignited a lot of feelings. Anyway, I'm actually really happy with how this turned out. It was really easy to edit, and I basically made it in two days. Live action is normally a lot harder for me, so that was nice. Also, go watch this YPIV, it's amazing! You can see the inspiration in the overlays and voiceovers.youtube.com/watch?v=omjd358hTFcyoutube.com/watch?v=omjd358hTFcyoutube.com/watch?v=omjd358hTFcEnjoy!
Make Me Like GRRRLS [mep dump #30] Sopphires 2020-11-29 | Another end of the month already. I thought work would make each week feel painfully long, but actually it feels like my week is on fast-forward. My inspirations being coming in fits and starts, but I've been managing to keep on going editing mep parts, and on the whole, I'm happy with how these parts turned out! 1. YES || 'Sims' by Lauv - Will/Lyra (His Dark Materials) Theme: One-sided ships / ships who didn't get to end up together Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=agmD0eh66tkFan art credit: dreamingpartone.tumblr.comI know I made a full edit out of this part, but I'm still uploading this here because I still really love it. I'm having a lot of fun with this aesthetic at the moment. 2. GetsusekaiStudios || 'Make Me Like You' by Gwen Stefani - Portia (The Arcana)Theme: dating sim characters Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=khfsEHonFy4Fan art credit: pashadevorakk.tumblr.com, linaisbluepancake.tumblr.com, snejkha.tumblr.comThis is my first part with GetsusekaiStudios, and I'm so excited to be part of this studio, I adore their MEPs, they're always so good! This one is no less gorgeous, you should go watch it! 3. CoRS || 'You're Gonna Go Far, Kid' by The Offspring - Nikolai Lanstov (Grishaverse)Theme: spiesFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=At38Jrl5OSIFan art credit: instagram.com/kevinwada, thehighlordzu.tumblr.com, emieclat.tumblr.comI listened to King of Scars at the end of October, and I love Nikolai, Zoya and the rest of the Grisha Triumvirate/the Twins so much that I even decided to suffer through the original trilogy for them. I thought Nikolai was perfect for this theme, though. It was a struggle figuring out what to do for spies, but I really like how this turned out! Very grateful for everyone in the server for feedback to the wips. 4. YES || 'Sucker' by the Jonas Brothers - Peter/MJ (Spectacular Spiderman & Spiderman into the Spiderverse) Theme: "Old" ships with older shows transitioning to members' "New" ships with more recent shows after the interludeFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=uw1yi4aoFTEOne of these parts was made in 2019. Guess which one. I had a lot of fun with the second part and trying to use effects with animated media.5. YES || '11 Minutes' by YUNGBLUD ft. Halsey, Travis Barker - Catra/Adora (She Ra) Theme: Hero x Anti-Villain / VillainFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=vmsT2qu1ZxgEven though these two fit this theme and song really well, I had a lot of trouble with this, especially typography. The full MEP is fantastic, though, so you should go watch it! 6. DVS || 'GRRRLS' by AViVA - Kate Bishop (Marvel), Lup (TAZ) and Zoya Nazyalensky (Grishaverse)Theme: girls who have had enoughFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=OqVy1DRciEsFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/1PgsbSgjJ8hs7ViL2y_57L0XWJGm8d2lE7NvrSVetrCE/edit?usp=sharingI really love how the Zoya part turned out in particular. I was trying to make the text movements smoother and stuff.

Will/Lyra - Sims [2x01] Sopphires 2020-11-14 | A short Will/Lyra edit that I made out of an MEP part for YES. Spoilers for episode 2x01 kind of. So, yeah, the first 13 seconds looks considerably better than the rest because that was an MEP part, but I fell in love with the song, and I can't get these two off my brain at the moment because I have been waiting to see these two on screen together for basically my whole life. I'm really excited for this series because Subtle Knife is my favourite book and Will is my favourite character. I almost certainly will not being making as many edits, though, because full-time employment. This is only done before the next episode because I made all the still image part before it came out. All the fanart is by dreamingpartone. Go check them out, they're fantastic! dreamingpartone.tumblr.com The full MEP is now done, it's fantastic, go watch it! youtu.be/agmD0eh66tk Enjoy!
Sick Monster [mep dump #29] Sopphires 2020-10-31 | Happy Halloween! I don't know if this is a trick or a treat as it's super long. October's been a month, new laptop, new job, and we're going back into lockdown... Anyway, this collection is basically split between parts I made in a blitz at the end of October when I got a new laptop and old ones from August. Plus some collab parts from 2019 that I never thought would see the light of day. I'm pretty much back in the swing of things, and I'm pretty happy with the MEP parts I've been making recently. Also, expect an MEP signup coming sometime in the next week (probably next weekend) because I hit 7k, I just need to decide on the theme and find energy. 1. CoRS || 'Animal I Have Become' by Three Days Grace - Dabi (BNHA)Theme: HalloweenFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=q-0Y3Hl8QYcFan art credit: keiid.tumblr.com, averyhelm.tumblr.com & twitter.com/kuroharraI'm really happy with how this part turned out. This is my first part with Carnival of Rust Studios where we edit the emo music of my teenage years. I had some troubles getting the neon & paint aesthetic down, but I felt like it really pushed me editing-wise, and that's what I really want.2. QS || 'Sick Thoughts' by Lewis Blissett - Twice (BNHA)Theme: villainsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=StIe0PuMSAw&t=0sFan art credit: pixiv.net/en/artworks/78939541Another Halloween part. I had fun editing Twice, I really like him as a character.3. hotterhatter2211 || 'Underdog' by The Script - Misumi Ikaruga (A3!)Theme: asexual/aromantic characters Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=Ry9YN7gS8r4I normally edit Roshanna for these MEPs because actual, canon asexual character, buuuut cosmic soul did an ace/aro edit for Pride, I believe, and they included Misumi, and I just 100% accept that headcanon. It totally fits with his personality, and his interest in the director is the lowest, and he mostly just seems happy to have friends. Also, hell yeah to an annual aspec awareness MEP.4. DVS || 'Triggered' by Chase Atlantic - Misumi Ikaruga (A3!)Theme: aromantic characters/characters who don't care about romanceFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=dk3REJWRfKQSecond ace themed MEP which we totally planned to come out on aspec awareness week... Another part that was supposed to with Roshanna, but after using him for 'Underdog' and liking how it turned out, I wanted to edit him some more. Plus, I'm still so in love with this game. Act 2 has been so good so far! 5. QS || 'Wrapped Up' by Olly Murs - Todoroki/Bakugou (BNHA)Theme: Happy birthday SolFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=gB-cy1oaNoQFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/1YPG1yynhD5Oxis1B0wJKyJ8bxfLZADsfWi9JUQ4TkPA/edit?usp=sharingThis is the start of the old parts. This one was for our surprise birthday MEP for Sol (Sykesus), who really loves Todobaku. I remember this being a lot of fun to edit, I still really enjoy this song. 6. DVS || 'Cool Patrol' by Ninja Sex Party - Dick Grayson (DC), A3! & The Adventure ZoneTheme: I hosted this, but I honestly don't remember. I think it was just to go wild with the silly song XD Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=ZaAkIHTFwhQFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/13as9zDy_Q85jT4cGRRe55Fz0xGncyUEROey5ui6IJtM/edit?usp=sharingThis MEP took months, but I think it was worth it! These three fandoms have the perfect chaotic energy for the song, so I had a blast editing it. Many thanks to Mori who rendered it for me when my laptop died. 7. DPSG1 || 'Broken Glass' by Kygo - Steven/Connie (Steven Universe)Theme: multi-animated dance Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=V4JKejjM3-4Please go watch this MEP! It's been over two months since it came out, and I still love it so much! Seeing all the dance scenes together just gives me such a good feeling for a reason I can't quite put my finger on it. I'm so glad I got an extra day from winning a category in Liv's favourite character contest otherwise I wouldn't have had the time to take part. 8. QS || 'Poker Face' by Lady Gaga - Dabi (BNHA)Theme: villains Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=cFm-GoVkyyII keep using QS to try and improve my raw editing, and I think it's working? I hope Sick Thoughts looked better than this. 9. BFLS || 'Monster' by Imagine Dragons - Clayface (Detective Comics (2016))Theme: sympathetic villainsFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=jKUSN4txzp8This is technically our Halloween MEP, but it didn't start out that way, and I made this in August, and it's not very good so I'm burying this at the end here. 10. YES || 'What a Time' by Julia Michaels - Conner/Megan (Young Justice)Theme: Young Justice couples angstFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=aMNY3BowGvYThis is an old collab that we finally finished up recently. I finished my parts in 2019 so, yeah, they look a little old. The collab is super good, though, go watch it if you want angst.
Yamaguchi + Shimada - Stand By You [4x15] Sopphires 2020-10-25 | Small Yamaguchi and Shimada edit to 'Stand By You' by Rachel Platten because their friendship is high-key underrated, and I am still emotional about this episode. Yamaguchi is my absolute favourite character in Haikyuu. His struggle against his anxiety just hits me on a personal level, and his character arc is well written, and the fact that Shimada is there not just teaching him volleyball but techniques on how to control his anxiety even though he has no obligation to?? Amazing. I apologise for the editing being a little janky in places. I didn't touch Vegas for over a month due to laptop issues that ended in me having to get a new one, so I had to shake off some editing rust initially. I'm fully back in the swing of things now, though, and I've been blasting through MEP parts because I was very behind. Hopefully I'll edit some more Haikyuu as I've been loving this half of the season and all the love that it's been giving to the side characters. Enjoy!
Bow + Adora & Kipo + Benson - Umbrella Sopphires 2020-09-05 | Short edit I made celebrating some underrated friendships: Bow and Adora (She Ra) and Kipo and Benson (Kipo and the Age of the Wonderbeasts) that I also ended up using as a means to learn Twixtor. I still don't really know how it works, and if it looks janky in the Kipo section it's because I made it, like, a a few weeks after I made the Bow and Adora bit, and I'd completely forgotten anything that I'd learnt. Anyway, Bow and Adora's friendship is criminally underrated, and there should be more content with them. They are my favourite (platonic) dynamic in the Best Friend Squad. I also really, really love Kipo and Benson's friendship as well, and I couldn't find anything that focused on the two of them. All the friendships in Kipo are really good, and I kind of wanted to include Benson and Wolf too, but I would never have finished it if I looped it again. I'll have to edit them at some point in the future when I'm able to again.
Karasuno - Underdog Sopphires 2020-08-29 | As expected, I did manage to finish other edits before I put my laptop in for repair. This one's Karasuno with 'Underdog' by The Script. I absolutely love Haikyuu!!, and since lockdown, I've been watching and rewatching it, and it's now my favourite anime. It's kind of become my emotional support anime because the characters are so lovable, and it's really inspiring and uplifting. Like I can never get tired of watching these characters grow and overcome their difficulties and problems, it makes me feel like I can too. XD I've been dying to edit Haikyuu for ages, and when I heard this song, I got super inspired. There are parts of it that are a little shaky (like the sfx, that part took forever), but I really wanted to just be able to finish something. By the time this goes live, I won't have my laptop anymore, but the first few days I was on leave, all the editing inspiration that had been eluding me came in droves, so instead of uploading them all in a couple of days, I thought I'd use the scheduling functions on Youtube for once and spread this and the other edit I finished over the next fortnight.
Billy/Teddy - Kiss Me Slowly Sopphires 2020-08-22 | A Billy/Teddy edit to 'Kiss Me Slowly' by Parachute. Okay, so I have no idea what is actually happening in Empyre, but I've been keeping an eye out to see if it produces good Billy/Teddy content, and oh boy did it deliver! Billy/Teddy (and the general, unabashed queerness of the Young Avengers) mean a lot to me, so you better believe that I freaked out and was super happy that they've finally made good on the end of Children's Crusade and they got married! Also, this is the easiest editing has been for me in a while. I started this yesterday straight after work at 5:00 because I was so inspired, and I had it done in a day, and I really like how it turned out! I've also been wanting to edit this song for ages with these two (I think I even started one back when I had my old editing software), but recently I've always baulked at it because I felt like it needed a soft style and tasteful overlays, and I don't know how to do that. (I think they turned out alright. They might be too much? I'm not sure.)I would say this may be the last upload in a while 'cause I'm putting my laptop in for repair next week (after many months of it only being usable when hooked up to a monitor), but I've got a bunch of inspiration, and I'm on leave, so if I say I won't then I probably will, and if I say I will I won't 'cause that's how these things work. XD Enjoy!
Infinity Riot [mep dump #28] Sopphires 2020-07-31 | So tired I forgot my normal preamble. I'm just living for the weekends right now, and even though I want to edit, my energy is very low. Still I got some parts done somehow, and I actually like a lot of these!1. A3!Studio || 'Kissing Strangers' by DNCE ft Nicki Minaj - Sakyo Furuichi (A3!)Theme: A3! charactersFull MEP = coming soon?So, at the start of lockdown, before I started interning, I began playing this game as something to do, and I kinda fell down a rabbit hole with it. I just love all the characters waaaay more than I was expecting to. I'm also super happy with how my part turned out. This colour scheme is super nice.2. Acinit || 'High Hopes' by Panic! At the Disco - Sakyo Furuichi & Taichi Nanao (A3!)Theme: A3! charactersFull MEP = coming maybe? one day?See, rabbit hole. These two are my favourite characters because redemption arcs. Also, I don't know if this MEP is ever going to be finished, but I really liked my parts. 3. Hidden Topaz || 'Infinity' Jaymes Young - Finn/Poe (Star Wars)Theme: multifandom & space aesthetic Full MEP = youtu.be/Swju0UvM4f8 Fan art credit: haflacky.tumblr.com & http://hammerings.tumblr.comI had so much fun doing this aesthetic, playing around with new effects, overlays and track compositions, to the point where I'm a little concerned that I maybe overdid it? I don't know, there might be too much going on at some points. 4. DVS || 'Can't Help Falling in Love' by Haley Nicole (cover) - Magnus/Julia Burnsides (TAZ) & Kamala/Bruno (Ms Marvel)Theme: Ships filled with lots of love and affection Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=qECMBPZRv60&t=8sFan art credit: glowbat.tumblr.com, zai-doodles.tumblr.com, http://lord-of-nowhere.tumblr.com, zroem.tumblr.com, farspeech.tumblr.com & http://garsils.tumblr.comI have been meaning to edit Magnus and Julia to this song for a while because, like, Magnus rushes in, so I leapt on that part. Also, I can't believe it's taken me this long to edit Kamala and Bruno since they kinda became canon. Also, go watch the whole mep, it's so cute! 5. QuirkyStudios || 'Ryder or Riot' by Ken Ashcorp - Kirishima Ejiro (BNHA)Theme: action Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=wZNf3MXt_6gBecause I'm an idiot, I originally edited the wrong part, but by some miracle (because I do not believe that I knew what my part sounded like when I downloaded the audio because my memory isn't that good), it was like 75% the same so I could just cut and paste everything from "try it" to "woo, woo, woo", and then just Frankenstein-ed the rest of what I'd done to make this part. The mep came out amazing, though! 6. DVS || 'Parachute' by Ingrid Michaelson - Barry/Iris (DC), Percy/Annabeth (PJO) & Finn/Poe (Star Wars)Theme: couplesFull MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=lUtuj75iC5wFan art credit: (14) - http://viria.tumblr.com & instagram.com/alessia.trunfio(15) - profdrlachfinger.deviantart.com, pajamasecrets.tumblr.com, http://hammerings.tumblr.com, twitter.com/MollyOstertag, lemonfroop.deviantart.com & honeyheist.deviantart.comMy Barry/Iris part is super ugly, I changed couples twice, and the outcome is passable. The Finn/Poe part was like baby's first space theme and was considerably more tame than how Infinity turned out.7. xBurningBrightly || 'Battle Scars' by Paradise Fears - Bakugou Katsuki (BNHA)Theme: raw and characters that have gone through difficultiesFull MEP: coming soonThis part is super old and very raw. It was raw themed so I tried out raw editing without typography, and it felt weirdly vulnerable. XD I don't think it's too bad, though.
Rapunzel - Looking Up [non/disney favourite character contest] Sopphires 2020-07-26 | My entry for DannyPhantomSG1's non/Disney favourite character contest using Rapunzel from Tangled to 'Looking Up' by SafetySuit. I originally showed up to see if I could edit my boy Miles because I've seen him in non/disney edits, and I feel comfortable with the idea of editing Marvel, but he was already taken, and I thought it'd be fun to enter, so I decided to edit my favourite Disney princess instead. I felt a bit nervous editing Disney given I don't normally do that, and the non/disney community is so talented it's kind of intimidating, but I'm super happy with how this turned out. I also managed to finish this and achieve my one goal: having fun and not getting stressed! Me being me, I am amazed that I finished this with five days to spare before the deadline, and I switched songs multiple times and didn't start really editing about two weeks ago even though I've had, like, two months. I only made a major breakthrough on Tuesday, and I was feeling very proud of being productive until I found an email in my spam on Wednesday that told me I should have been at a webinar about the grad scheme I just got on so... thankfully it wasn't compulsory, and they emailed round a recording. Anyway, Tangled is one of my favourite Disney movies, and Rapunzel is my favourite Disney princess, although I think it was the animated series that pushed her above Belle. I'm not really good at character studies or anything like that, so I ended up just picking a song that I thought fit her personality and what I like about her. I have types of favourite characters: angsty people that need redemption arcs, people with anxiety/mental health problems and balls of sunshine who are positive forces of good in the world. Rapunzel is the latter, and I just admire her optimism, her unwavering drive and how she brings out the best in others. I don't think the edit really showcases this, but I just thought the song embodied her overall spirit. Enjoy!
Your Pride [mep dump #27] Sopphires 2020-06-30 | Me this afternoon: When your tear duct is infected, and your eye is still kinda swollen, but you wanna get the Pride parts up before the month ends! Me at 10:30pm: oh crap, I forgot I uploaded this! I'm an idiot. Enjoy! 1. hiddentopaz || 'Slip Away' by Perfume Genius - Taako/Kravitz (The Adventure Zone)Theme: LGBT+ shipsFull MEP = youtu.be/bxrYKhjPa4wFan art credit: http://enoch-art.tumblr.com, http://life-writer.tumblr.com, lorlocks.tumblr.com, http://gracieanimator.squarespace.com, http://harveychan.tumblr.com http://snuffes.tumblr.comI tried some new camera movement at the start, and I cannot believe I got it to work! (Thank you, Iggy, for the tutorial!) And then I kinda ran out of inspiration at the end. Also, I could not get pastel tinting right.2. Sarge || 'Get Up' by Shinedown - Lup (The Adventure Zone)Theme: canon LGBT+ charactersFull MEP = youtu.be/HtJGOgOEqVcFan art credit: glowbat.tumblr.com, http://earthprincewu.tumblr.com, http://kaylabarart.tumblr.com, jeinu.tumblr.comAgain, I was playing with camera movement at the start. I found going up much harder than down, and then realised the part was 17 seconds and there was no way in hell I could do FX like that for that long. 3. nonelleke || 'Lose Somebody' by Kygo ft OneRepublic - Netossa/Spinnerella (She Ra)Theme: She Ra couples Full MEP = youtu.be/dAcMnIrdpgoThey were the first ones I thought of when I heard this song, and I loved that they were such a big part of season 5! Also, this MEP came out gorgeous! 4. boxedkat37 || 'Never Really Over' by Katy Perry - Catra/Adora (She Ra)Theme: LGBT+ ships Full MEP = youtu.be/3JSIesqfVKoI don't know when I'll get around to making an edit of just these two so I'm super happy I got to use them for this because I love them so much, and I'm still so happy that they're canon!!5. DannyPhantomSG1 || 'Parachute & Airplanes' by David Archuleta - Simon Spier (Love, Simon)Theme: anythingFull MEP = youtu.be/V35ytQqj0WkI finally got around to watching Love, Simon this month, and I loved it. I almost cried when Simon came out to his parents, the anxiety just hit so close to home for me. I downloaded the movie to use for a larger Pride edit that I thought there was a good chance I'd never make so I figured I'd use it for this to get some use out of it. 6. ChildhoodCreativityStudios || 'Yours' by Greyson Chance - Harley/Ivy (Harley Quinn)Theme: canon LGBT+ couples Full MEP = youtu.be/ivuC1YJohO8I joined CCS several months ago, but this is the first part I've finished because I am slow. I was originally going to do this with Kaldur/Wynnde and Netossa/Spinerella, but then the first HarlIvy kiss happened, and I asked carro if they counted as canon, and I'm so glad she said yes. I haven't actually seen season 2 properly, but I've seen spoilers for the final episode (I finished this part before it came out), and I'm so happy they're together, it's all I've wanted since the show started! Also, can one use the split screen effect too much? 7. 4verNami || 'Pride' by American Authors - Roshanna Chatterji (DC) Theme: canon LGBT+ charactersFull MEP = youtu.be/fuulNhqyVJk Pride month isn't complete for me if I haven't edited with one of the few canonically asexual characters we have. I struggled for inspiration with this part, but I think it turned out alright.
MultiLGBTQA+ BAME characters - Perfect Colour Sopphires 2020-06-14 | A tribute to fellow LGBTQA+ BAME people to 'Perfect Colour' by SafetySuit. (For context, because I think it's a British term, BAME stands for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic. It's not a perfect term, but I spent ages thinking about it and couldn't think of a better way to title this, so we're going with that.) I've actually been intending to make something like this since, I think, April, now, when it was becoming abundantly clear that BAME people in the UK/America/probably Europe were dying at disproportionate rate to white people, and since then that's only become more relevant. Then, since I didn't get round to this til June, I thought I'd roll it into a Pride edit as well given the ethos is the same: that all lives are equal. Mostly, I just wanted to make something positive and celebratory because, whilst anger is what's helping mobilise people, being angry all the time is also just exhausting, and we could all use a moment or two to recharge.Also! There's a fundraiser being done by some people in the vidding community called Vidder's United that is happening tomorrow, I think, on Discord to raise money for BLM. I'm not one of the one's involved, and I have no idea who came up with it, so I'm just going to drop a link to 4verNami's upload of the promo where there's more info. I just thought I'd give it an additional shout out:youtube.com/watch?v=kWxMo08J7r4&t=0sCharacters used: Stevonnie (Steven Universe), David (Young Avengers), Jesper (Six of Crows), Shiro (Voltron: Legendary Defender), Seiji (Fence!), Korra (Legend of Korra), America (Young Avengers), Ola (Sex Education), Aubrey (TAZ: Amnesty), Bram (Love, Simon), Bunker (Teen Titans), Roshanna (The Movement), Kaldur (Young Justice), Asami (Legend of Korra), Yuuri (Yuri On Ice!!!), Hisao (Morning Glories), Nico (Runaways), Carlos (Welcome to Nightvale), Alysia (Batgirl), George & Lance (She Ra).Fan art credit:Jesper (Six of Crows) = slashpalooza.tumblr.comhatepotion.tumblr.commonolime.tumblr.com Ola (Sex Education) = tonftyhw.tumblr.comAubery (TAZ: Amnesty) = glowbat.tumblr.comAlex (Magnus Chase) = viria.tumblr.comcookiesketches.tumblr.comKravitz (TAZ: Balance) = chaoticcomposition.tumblr.comhttp://earthprincewu.tumblr.comdoing-that.tumblr.comCarlos (Welcome to Nightvale) = viria.tumblr.com#fanvidfeed #blacklivesmatter #pride
Catra - See You [5 day IC] Sopphires 2020-06-07 | A Catra edit to 'See You' by Thriving Ivory, which I did for an IC with Hatter and a couple of others. We had from about Tuesday night through to 10pm eastern time today, which is sometime past when I need to go to bed so I'm functional for work, so I think that's about 5 days? I've never done an IC before, and I had so much fun editing this, I'm so glad this song got accidentally dropped in the chat and won the vote because it screamed Catra at me the moment I heard it and let me smash through the editing block I've been having! It also confirms my theory that I can't get anything done unless I have a deadline. Also, editing She Ra right now is therapeutic. Like, the show is just so filled with hope and love that it's super cathartic at a time when the world is making me (and so many others) stressed and angry. Hopefully this will all end with positive change. Anyway, I'm the first one done with the IC, but when the others are out, I'll add them down below. I'm super excited to see them! Other ICs:hotterhatter2211 - youtu.be/w1IDfo_oUGg xkate333 - youtu.be/aAIuwloUSz8 Everyone stay safe and enjoy!#fanvidfeed
Feed the Teenagers [mep dump #26] Sopphires 2020-05-31 | End of another month. This one made lockdown go a lot quicker now that I have work to do, although it means much less time for editing, and quite a lot less inspiration, which kinda shows in some of these parts, but She Ra has made me want to edit lots again, and I'm excited for Pride month! Anyway, enjoy the parts!1. Anyt || 'Cut to the Feeling' by Carly Rae Jepsen - Tangled: The Series Theme: ...I don't actually remember, but I think it might have been relationships or something? Full MEP = youtu.be/Y0Ks-3JeVjo This is actually a couple months old now, I should have put it in last month's and forgot, but I still really like how it turned out! I just love this show so much. 2. Me || 'Deep Water' by American Authors - Bruce Wayne + Dick Grayson (DC)Theme: supportive relationships Full MEP = youtube.com/watch?v=ES94kXiqlw4Ahhh, go watch the full thing, I'm so in love with it! My part's a touch rough, it's been a while since I've focused on editing with comic panels, but it was nice to go back to something of my roots for my 6k part.3. QuirkyStudios || 'Back to Earth' by Steve Aoki - All Might & Deku (BNHA) Theme: BNHAFull MEP = youtu.be/N269l3365wM I continue to be weak for adoptive father-son dynamics, and we enter the BNHA portion of this collection. I picked this up as a back up and kinda had no idea what to do with this part because I like to lyric match and stuff, but I just- these lyrics are weird, so I did my best to try and create a through line. 4. DVS || 'Feed the Wolf' by Breaking Benjamin - Hawks & Dabi (BNHA) Theme: character focused Full MEP = youtu.be/GdxnYO7WdUEFan art credit: docs.google.com/document/d/1I7muIhqmxhqTKZRfpalgjCQC8iJIDlxJoSCKW8wKyw4/edit?usp=sharingGotta say, I was pretty terrified editing this sort of song still image, but the MEP came out amazing, and I actually had quite a lot of fun editing these, especially the Hawks part. I have known Hawks for all of two episodes, and I already love him. I'm anime only, but I've seen some out of context manga spoilers on Instagram, and I'm both excited and terrified for what's coming with his character. Also, I have never been more invested in a fan theory than the Dabi-is-a-Todoroki theory, and I want it to be true so badly. 5. BFLS || 'Teenagers' by My Chemical Romance - Young Avengers (Marvel) Theme: teenage/young heroesFull MEP = youtu.be/KPZ5OT_r4hU I've been working on this part on-off for a couple months now, glad to finally get it finished! Troia suggested we go with punk/rock/rebellious aesthetic to fit the song, so I went with a graffiti one, which I find really fun to edit with. 6. BFLS || 'Fake Happy' by Paramore - Billy Kaplan (Young Avengers) & Marc Spector (Moon Knight) Theme: characters with mental health illnessesFull MEP = youtu.be/lAAv91tZgX0I'm so glad that I had the time (or thought I did, back in April) to host another MHA on bfls, but my own parts were rather lackluster. I struggled for inspiration and energy. I had to last minute switch my second part from Clint to Marc just to get it done, and somehow that worked, even though I've never read a Moon Knight comic and only have a vague understanding of the character! I'm really happy with the full MEP, though, and I'm glad I hosted it because mental health awareness still means so much to me. 7. hotterhatter2211 || 'Rescue Me' by OneRepublic - Lyra Belacqua + Roger Parslow (His Dark Materials)Theme: live action siblingsFull MEP = youtu.be/QXTNvZgP_DAAnother part that's kinda rough. I took it as a back up, and the fact I haven't worked with live action for a few months really shows. I've been meaning to edit HDM to this song, though, and the whole MEP looks amazing!
Multifandom MEP - Deep Water [Thank you for 6k subs!!!] Sopphires 2020-05-29 | Ahh, it's here! I'm so glad that I spent forever being indecisive and agonising over what song I was going to use because this is everything I wanted. I wanted a song that people could use to showcase whatever relationships they wanted with whatever media and just hit me with feels, and I got exactly that! Thank you so much to everyone that took part, you all did amazing! And thank you so much to everyone else who watches, comments or subscribes, I certainly never thought there would be this many of you! XD Honestly, eccentric's final voiceover says it best, thank you for everything! Enjoy!

Glimmer/Bow - Can we forgive and forget? Sopphires 2020-05-26 | Spoilers for She-Ra Season 5! (Is that still necessary?) I'm still pretty shook by season 5, even after over a week, because it was everything, so I'll start with, yes, this song is 'Glimmer' by Marinaras Trench. I actually started this way back in March 2019 (before season 2 even came out) because someone in the YES discord server suggested it, and I thought it was funny and am very here for being overly literal with song lyrics, plus I love this band. But I also suck at follow through so I never finished it, and it just sat there on my laptop until I was trying to figure out where to start with my She Ra editing, re-listened to this song and, like, it fits Glimmer's arc insanely well, particularly her relationship with Bow. I've never been more glad about my lack of follow through so I chucked out everything but the opening section. I didn't expect to be vidding these two first because I didn't know I shipped them until it was happening, and I was freaking out internally, but I really like them! They're very cute and low-key. Like this edit because I have forgotten how to do typography with clips, someone please help me! I hope it looks okay without it. I plan (hope!) to make more She Ra edits because both my OTPs sailed, and I'm so happy about it, but my brain is also so frazzled that I'm finding it hard to focus and decide on a song. I'm at least doing a Catradora MEP part so I'll do some editing with them. (Also, I knew this was gonna happen, but the thumbnail I had yesterday was so much better, but I couldn't post last night, and then I wanted to change the overlays, but ughh, YouTube, I liked the other one better!)Enjoy!#fanvidfeed
