Vids: Three Frontera Verde vids for festivids

I made three Frontera Verde vids for bironic for festivids! bironic had some really amazing prompts for the source, which I hadn't seen, so I watched it after festivids assignments went out.

Frontera Verde is a really interesting canon, both structurally - one of the main characters is found dead in the first episode - and tonally. I ended up wanting to make vids for three of bironic's prompts in three pretty different genres! I don't think there's a single clip that's in all three, except for a particularly lush jungle scene that was a very helpful clip for overlays.

The three vids are:

yesterday, today, and tomorrow
song: thick as thieves by Amelia
summary: The chiricsanango, or yesterday today and tomorrow plant, has color-changing flowers that last for just three days: yesterday they were purple, today they are lavender, tomorrow they will be white, and then they will be gone.

Vid: Ordinary Day (Great Canadian Baking Show)

Sooooo I finished my three Frontera Verde vids and decided I wanted to do something floofy as a last minute treat! I was considering several different treat options and I settled on the Great Canadian Baking Show.

I was making this vid for thingswithwings but she ended up giving me the song for it - the song obviously needed to be Canadian, so I was listening to some Canadian music playlists and rejecting songs. I complained to twwings about how the playlist only had Great Big Sea songs about the end of the world and ghosts and stuff, and she was like wtf, you should vid Ordinary Day, it is so cheerful and it was on the radio constantly in the 90s. And then I listened to it and yup, there was my song!

I started clipping for this on Tuesday of go-live week and I thought "oh this'll be a speedy project" but it TURNS OUT clipping a baking show takes forever. I actually only made it through four episodes of season 2 (I skipped to find the good ones and hit the finale) and I still didn't put the first clip down on the timeline until 4 PM on Friday! So this vid doesn't fully represent the amazingness of TGCBS in all its glory, but it's still a good time and I'm glad I made it. I vidded the bridge first because it was obvious that the accordion bridge was for running around!
