This is delightful! I love the instrumental bit in the middle with all of Baby's goofs and stumbles, especially :D So much fun.

[laurashapiro]

Thank you so much! The bridge was definitely the most fun part to cut. (:

OMG so much fun. Francis coming out of her shell in the most delightful way. Also total bonus for getting in her moral awesomeness in there too :D I loved every second of it. Thank you so much, whoever you are!

[laurashapiro]

Hey, it's not like I'm gonna miss an opportunity to showcase moral awesomeness. (:

Yay! I'm thrilled that you loved it! I loved making it for you.

[laurashapiro]

My work here is done. (:

[serrico]

Hee! Fun! *dances*

[laurashapiro]

W00t! Thank you!

Yay, I was really bopping along to this one! And the bridge is excellent, I had to laugh when Baby misses the lift at the Sheldrake.

[laurashapiro]

Yeah, that moment from the movie kills me. There was no chance it wouldn't make it into the vid.

Thanks for your feedback! Glad you bopped. (:

I love how this video is so upbeat and funny! <3

[laurashapiro]

Thank you! Glad you had fun.

Ahaha, my favorite bit is what's-his-face giving Baby the copy of the Fountainhead followed immediately by her pouring ice water on his crotch, lol.

[laurashapiro]

That's my favorite part, too. :D

This was awesome - I love dancing in vids. The middle bit with her screwing up was so funny, and I really like the repeated stone stairs shots, especially the one at the very end.

[laurashapiro]

Thank you! Yeah, doing the bridge as a screwup montage was essential once I figured out what the vid was about. And that shot at the end? Works even better if you watch the signed version of the vid. (:

[fairestcat]

I love this!

[laurashapiro]

Yay! Thanks!

[katta]

Very infectious - I was grinning and my foot was tapping as I watched!

[laurashapiro]

I'm glad to hear it! Thank you.

[tieleen]

This is SO WONDERFUL. Fun and joyful and a great reminder of why I liked Baby.

[laurashapiro]

She's pretty great, isn't she?
