Great vid!

Getty forever.

[beatrice1979b]

GETTY FOREVER!!!

hey, thank you.

[ReDZeeDeveel]

This song is what made me discover the coolness of Ashtar Command... Oh Ugly Betty and Sandwich guy.

[beatrice1979b]

Ashtar Command... i love this song and the fact they chose it for that particular scene makes it so magical. I'm missing songs like this in this new season 3 of Ugly Betty...

[wooster182]

This isn't better than my vid? Please! I am giving you some stiff competition, but you are still the best! :D

[beatrice1979b]

Are you out of your mind? this is nothing. Only a border and a couple of letter effect. This has no effect or no color and definitely timing in your vid is impeccable with a huge quantity of short trimmed clips. I am telling you I can't find my way to change the colors of the clips... i never like the results in my vids... but in yours are WOW!!!

[wooster182]

You do not give yourself enough credit! I'll never be able to make a mask like you do. Most of mine end up looking silly. And I'm too impatient with keyframes to ever make those letter effects.

I found the color effects only by accident. I made the beginning blue and red by accidentally clicking the Gaussian Blur. I just messed around with the colors until I found what I like.

Great Video!! I Miss Gio!!

[beatrice1979b]

Thank you. I so miss him too.

[mimi31270]

I loved your video, it made me nostalgic lol, otherwise it was super trés bient done as usual!

[beatrice1979b]

Mimi!!! Merci. Ah you are still making vids. I love your spirit!!! :D

[beatrice1979b]

oh my god! :D you are crazy. But yeah! Horta you A-word hole.

[Gatita089]

I miss him too :( Matt is okay and Jesse was cute but an a-hole. But they don't compare. Betty needs a real man!!! They never gave Gio the chance...why didn't they at least give Betty a one night stand with him. Damn writers screwing up all over the place.

[beatrice1979b]

Gatita. I know what you mean. Matt is nice but a bit of a wuss. It's really a shame writers didn't give us more Gio the way we wanted to see him.

[Mysterwright]

B, I love the way you portray the characters in this video. They really do remind me of old cartoon characters like Betty Boop and Popeye The Sailor.

This show is dying for that over-the-top portrayal. Amanda and Marc get it every week on Mode After Dark. Why can't Betty on *her* program? Its a shame, really. I could totally see an Ugly Betty Saturday morning cartoon but drawn vaguely reminiscent of Ghost World or by Robert Crumb. Maybe even dare I say it, like Fleischer studios or B:TAS?

[beatrice1979b]

Thanks a lot. Yes, I think the show is missing it's original cartoonish exaggerated humor and love. Hahahaha... Popeye the Sailor (i used to love him) And you are right, writing have been down the drain these days but I do like the Mode After Hours mini webpisodes. They are too few, it's a shame.

[1t1hkg]

I loooooove this video and the song too!

I miss Gio...

[beatrice1979b]

Hey thank you so much. :-) This song is amazingly beautiful.

And I really miss Gio in the show.

thank you, honest.

[Missumberella]

wow :)

i loveee this video

itss soooo cuteee

i love betty and gio!!!!

they are realyy cute together

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[beatrice1979b]

Oh yes, they are so cute together. I totally ... absolutely miss them...

Thanks so much.

I WANT GIO BACK!

[anniexbanny]

wow that was beautiful im a detty girl but a getty girl lol i want detty in the end but i want getty now i wish gio stayed a lot longer than he did

great job on the vid btw

[beatrice1979b]

You are welcome!!! :D there are may Detty vids that I enjoy watching. I love Daniel though, even though I'm not Detty.

I am glad you liked the song and the vid. It's really a lovely song, very sweet...

I miss season 2 and season 1 Betty sometimes...

[fto2006]

Wow.... you did this beautiful song justice. Gotta say, B, you're my fav fanvid maker ever. and this vid is one for your best ones

[beatrice1979b]

Thanks, Tomato. You all make me happy. This song makes me all mushy.

it was going to be a simple vid... but then got carried away a little bit. It's really hard to feel something for Betty when these days I pretty much dislike her character. Oh well... all for Getty!

[beatrice1979b]

Tomato... which reminds me.. WHERE IS YOUR VERSION?! I've been searching it for ages... I remember you had the first getty vid of the song... I can't find it!!!!

[fto2006]

I think I deleted it a while back. I can't even remember why I did that. I guess I was pissed off for some reason and deleted all my videos :P

[beatrice1979b]

Well... I want that video!!! I remember it was made with still photos... that was the one, right? Well... you have two choices. Or PM me the links so i can download them or upload them again to youtube. OR ELSE X-(

*pretending to have a really angry face*

[fto2006]

Sorry but I don't have the pics nor the vid. The stuff on my pc is pretty messed so I delete a lot of stuff and only realise it later. :(

[beatrice1979b]

And for the record: I still hate Horta. I can't believe after Gio left there is no more "romance" in Ugly Betty. All her lovers are like... meh.

[fto2006]

I would be able to live with that if the writing kept its quality. I mean all the funny recurring characters are gone, the storylines are predictable, the one-liners are so few and not so funny and don't even get me started on the wardrobe. The show just lost its originality (at least for me)

[fenway401920]

Kudos again, B! You are a great story-teller!

[beatrice1979b]

Fen! Thanks! :D

[sweetcutie4life2006]

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

GETTY FOREVER!!!

the video just liek the song is beautiful!!

thank you b!! your amazing

*big hug and kiss*

[beatrice1979b]

Maria, GETTY FOREVER! LOVE LOVE!!

hahahha... the song is sweet... makes me remember those days last year (wow... 11 months ago) when we were all excited that UB returned in spring and... surprise... GETTY LOVE AT ITS BEST!! Oh gotta love Gio.

So happy you liked it. You made me work a bit harder on this one... since you already had seen the preview... didn't want to dissapoint.

[sweetcutie4life2006]

aaw and you certainly didn't disappoint :)

*watches video over and over again*
