2010 Xena Con & TX Gold Winner! Alone... until I met you by ifaith

[angelsheart85]

geez in combination with this song and all the scenes chosen, whoever made this, just managed to make me cry! magnificent!:)

[ifaithproductions]

@angelsheart85 oh, thank you! any favorite parts? Lol

[angelsheart85]

@ifaithproductions u mean in the video , darling, or? :)

[ifaithproductions]

@angelsheart85 LOL yes, yes in the video. Oh and if this made you cry, tell me what you think of the other one (if i never knew you) which i made for the Final Xena con. (i think appropriate warnings were added in the beginning)

[angelsheart85]

@ifaithproductions um i m not inclined to well watching things in partial... i like to see them more as something whole, so dunno, the vid as a whole is magnificent and every scene, every move, every expression, it brought out clearly the pain the two of them faced throughout being together , from suffering because of them picking other people as um love interest so to speak, through the hardships they went through... U just picked awesome scenes and U paid attention ...

[angelsheart85]

@ifaithproductions to the emotions written clearly across their faces whenever something happened!

[ifaithproductions]

@angelsheart85 wow! lol thank you. Actually,i had to add additional warnings to my if i never knew you video that the scenes will obviously only make sense to those who KNOW the show and where the scenes came from haha. this is still one of my favorites, as this one was for the 15th anniv of the Xena con.

[Xena8881]

simply beautiful! what editing program did u use?

[ifaithproductions]

@Xena8881 thank you! well i use iMovie (as it is very simple, powerful and user friendly) and then a splash of final cut express for some color correction. i'd love to explore FCE more, but frankly i'm too lazy to learn all the options LOL.

[ImagineRealistically]

Just wondering, who actually decides/chooses the winning videos in Xena cons? Sharron? The audience? Or Lucy and Renee themselves?

Very lovely video by the way! It's wonderfully done! I'm saving it to my favorites :)

[ifaithproductions]

@ImagineRealistically LOl thank you so much! and I actually have NO idea who judges the vids. I do know they go to Creation ent, but absolutely no clue who judges them.

[dragonquillca]

Loved it! Perfect song too!

[ifaithproductions]

@dragonquillca thanks! (^_^)

[gameiohfreak]

amazing video, really loved it

[ifaithproductions]

@gameiohfreak Thank you!

[SierraLynn1512]

What episode is 1:15 from?

[JoniAnnR]

@SierraLynn1512 That episode is from Season One "The Greater Good" when Callisto hits Xena with a poisoned dart and Gabrielle has to pretend to be Xena to save a village. A Guam Fan.

[ShinigamiRukia17]

This....captures the entire essence of Xena and Gabrielle's love and the travels they had together. I have always loved Kristin Chenoweth singing and it's combined with my favorite show.

[ifaithproductions]

@ShinigamiRukia17 I'm glad you liked it! hope my next video elicits the same response (^_^)

[ShinigamiRukia17]

@ifaithproductions I'll watch soon and I'm sure it will make me happy :D Xena lives on!

[OakFae]

I've never cared for this song, but the video is so good I like it now :P

[ifaithproductions]

@OakFae wow one of the best compliments EVER! thanks so much!

[sixthenergy]

Despite my... less than thrilled-ness about Glee, this is an awesome vid! Just like your other vid I can see why you got a win! It's wonderful and yes, reminds you of the heartache! Thanks for sharing!

[ifaithproductions]

@sixthenergy hehe. Actually - i don't watch Glee. The only reason I knew about this song was from my girlfriend who happened to play it when I was around.

[JupeAma]

another astonishingly good vid. I can see why it was a winner. your song choice and editing are inspired. I hope you make a 1000 more of these - no pressure ;)

[ifaithproductions]

@JupeAma LOL Wow thank you so much! Here's to hoping that the Xena cons keep happening - i'll try my best to keep making my crazy little vids!

[tjoel1]

AMAZING!

[ifaithproductions]

@tjoel1 Thanks!

[xenamar78]

Alone Sung By HEART Not these peple I Love The song By Heart. Do u have this clip without Glee singing?? Listen to Heart , They are the Original

[ifaithproductions]

@xenamar78 LOL uh - yes i know they sang the original. I have to say - there was just something about the GLEE version that inspired me to make this vid. That being said if you want to mute the vid and play the Heart version, knock yerself out! :)

[kisstokis]

So beatifuly made. the song fit perfectly. You really captured the emotion of the show. I've loved Xena for years. it used to be the highlight of my day. I seem to be passing the torch to my daughter whose always asking to watch an episode. thank you for such a great tribute.

[ifaithproductions]

@kisstokis thank you so much! i'm delighted that you liked my video! Back in Bt [before tivo] i would stay up, risking neck and back ache just to make sure my vcr would record my favorite Xena episodes, since they would play the older ones at night. I distinctly remember being up at 1am making sure "a day in the life" recorded. My mother was not amused.

[PinkPacifier]

Moving video of the two of them. I may not watch the show anymore but I'll never forget how their bond seemed perfectly normal and right with each other, even if I didn't fully understand it as a kid. Even back then I wanted Xena and Gabbie to kiss, it meant nothing shocking or gross to me when young - it was just two people in love and you wanted them together.

Again, great vid and scene selection. A+

[ifaithproductions]

@PinkPacifier I know exactly what you mean - a lot of the *wink*wink *nudge*nudge things were completely over my head when i was younger, but i always thought they were meant for each other (^_^)

thank you for the kind words and i'm glad you liked it!

[JLC48]

This is truly one of the finest Xena vids ever made!! Very beautiful and emotion packed. I can't keep coming back to it!!

[ifaithproductions]

@JLC48 wow, thank you for the amazing compliment! i hope you like the next one i make too!

[XFighterinlove]

Yep, I definitely liked it.

How romantic!! *sighs*

[ifaithproductions]

@XFighterinlove LOL thank you. And thanks to this video my reputation is forever ruined (O_o)

[XFighterinlove]

@ifaithproductions And why's that??? sorry, I'm really curious...

[ifaithproductions]

@XFighterinlove haha it's because - Now everyone knows i'm a closet romantic. *sigh...

[XFighterinlove]

@ifaithproductions Oh... I like it... ;)

[gagaloo4ever]

You did a great job! Perfect song, perfect clips. Agree with the others about emmy's for L & R. If you don't mind me asking, what editing equip. / software do you use? I'd love to make a fan video, if just for me and my friends. :)

[ifaithproductions]

@gagaloo4ever Thank you for the kind words! Its very humbling to know so many people liked my little project. And I don't mind at all - this vid was made on my little macbook, with imovie [i think its the'08 version] the newer imovie has a lot more features. If you do get into it, imovie is simple and user friendly o(^_^)o

[BroadwayStar21]

ifaith this rocks! Don't know if I already told you. Oh and I love the CHENO!

[ifaithproductions]

@BroadwayStar21 Thanks so much! (^_^)

[JLC48]

Oh now THIS is a fabulous vid!!! BRAVO!!!

[ifaithproductions]

@JLC48 thank you so much! (^_^)

[wickedalwayz82]

this was beautiful ^_^. Excellent song choice.

I just dont get how Lucy or Ren didnt win emmys for their perfomances of Gabby and her Xena. Honestly the range of emotions these gals went through and also wonderful acted.

Loved the vid =)

[ifaithproductions]

@wickedalwayz82 Thank you for the comment and compliment! I completely agree with you about lucy and renee - the awards they did receive are not enough in my book!

[TheBabyjanette]

yap, those emotion they've shown are amazingly incredible.. as if they're real,. they must have win emmys, lol.. but i just want xena and gabby back, very fantastic show i cant afford not to watch it.. ;)

[natoshkaa]

Aww it's beautiful, nearly made me cry. And I do love Kristin Chenoweth, too! <3

[ifaithproductions]

[ifaithproductions]

@natti80 thanks natti! i was addicted to that song and after listening to it around 50 times i decided to make a video - i'm still not sick of it! :)

[XarahVme]

Oh, poor Gabrielle having to witness Xena kissing one guy after the other. You're telling a real nice story. I liked it a lot!

[ifaithproductions]

Haha as opposed to Xena seeing Gabrielle get MARRIED and flirt with Najara right infront of her... hehe. i'm glad you liked it! (^_^)
