Aqua Vitae

A visual for you. I created this video slowly.

Aqua Vitae - click here, you won't be disappointed if you like poetry.


Ah and after it was published I noticed all the spelling errors. Sorry if that bugs you. It bugs me too.

love the moonlight sonata

A beautiful experience - the words and the music flowed together. Some of the images shocked, as did some of the words but they meld together. Very emotive

At the time 3:44 is the best line. Its fun to think about. I noticed that your lines and thoughts go longer than mine. Hard to explain what I'm talking about but it's like your thoughts endure a little bit longer before you're onto a new thought or becoming disconnected from the previous one. Pretty cool, never thought to make a slideshow.

I definitely enjoyed making this, you should try it for sure. I used Windows Movie Maker, it's pretty easy to use once you figure out how to change the timing of words and photos over music.. it's tedious, as I say well worth it when you're done.
Ahem, don't forget to spell check! I did not. whoops. what can ya do.
But thank you for your review anyway, I like that part too. You're right, I also really like the part at 2:16 and the few seconds that follow. The music really speaks there, to me.
Thanks again for sharing.

I was breathless before a full minute even passed. Wonderful piece of literature - Of art! The song was an excellent addition to the pictures and words. Simply amazing - I can not describe it any the better. Well done!

Thanks so much for your review, I really appreciate the awesome compliments, it speaks to me too, I tried to make it something I'd want to see over and over, the message was deeply thought about, hard to describe, hard to know if any reader would take the time to think on each line. All poets should do this, it was really tedious at times but it was well worth it.
Anyway, thanks again!

This piece is an exquisitely brilliant text/image collab w/Ludwig van.

It's only marred by 5 perceived typos, fixers being: Moonlight, competence, beneath, innocence, unparalleled.

It is wonderful hypermedia work otherwise, poignant w/memorable lines and images.

[Jazmen]

I know! Ack, I was too focused on the timing and images apparently! I definitely didn't use spell check,, I realized as soon as the hour of uploading was over that there were obvious errors. Amazing that I watched it in editing probably 1,000 times and didn't notice them until it was finalized and out of my hands, yeah?
haha.
Cest la vie, might I say.
Thank you for watching this, and more, thank you for your review.

Beautiful and creative.

The video is nice, but muddles the piece. I would love to see it written out or perhaps spoken if you wish to do a video. I cannot accurately review the piece because I did not care for the delivery.

[Jazmen]

There is the original written piece on my profile. This came second..
So thanks for your free input. I respect your opinion and partly agree. I wouldn't just have the video with out the poem out there on its own the way I wrote it.
