Buffy / Angel: Are We The Lucky Ones?
Song: Lucky
Artist: Bif Naked
“What I want from you I can never have.”
My first Buffy/Angel after how many years that the two shows has been off the air? Total latecomer to the fandom, I confess, but man, I totally fell for Buffy and Angel. What is it with me and tragic couples that cannot be?
This vid was done in both Sony Vegas and Adobe After Effects. Even though the programs don’t integrate with each other at all, I found it a pleasure to work with both and combining the finished projects into one. I think the After Effects bits added a little something to the vid that I wouldn’t want to miss.
Lastly, I’d like to thank rhoboat for the beta on this one and LadyCallie for the audio help.

That was wonderful !! The effects were such a natural progression with the vid !! I loved the effect of showing the text with the characters lines.Also the b&w scene that changes into color was wild !! Your clipping was well done to match the lyrics as well ……Thank you for posting this !!……..I loved it …………..Cyn

Thanks for the lovely comment, Cyntalkz87
The text effect was actually my wild venture into After Effects after I found my static text opening kinda boring…… I thought it looked so cool that I had to reuse it X-D
Loved it!! I really enjoyed the flow of clips and coupling with music/effects. I agree with the above commenter regarding the written text of character lines. Awesome job!!
I miss B/A.
Glad you enjoyed it, bleachusd
Very nice video. I agree with everyone else that your usage of text and dialogue was very well implemented.
great work
i really love this
That was wonderful.
I’m not a Buffy/Angel shipper, but this brought all the pain and wonder of their relationship back.
Wow, that was a beautiful and touching video. Nice work. I love it.
That was absolutely amazing. The splash of coloring when they kissed or touched – beautiful. And the song… great choice.
This vid was recced on Livjournal and I just want to say how beautifully done it is. The edits are seamless and the video flowed beautifully with the song. The writing is very effective and I loved the painterly move from black and white to color. Excellent job with this.
This video was recced over at buffyversetop5 on LJ and omg I can see why. Wonderfully done. I came into this fandom as a spuffy fan but this make me see bangel in another light entirely.
From the song choice to the select text that you used made such an impact. Fantastic work. Kudos.
Oh, that was so sweet
I went all “oooh” “awww” and got goosebumps! And I love the song, even though it’s the evil!Parker anthem.
Congrats (and that’s coming from a rabid Spuffy fan ^^)
