Evie's Fantasy

Evie's going to get her fantasy and make it reality!

(If you don't want to scroll through these individually, you can view the video by clicking here.  Just remember to view it in HD and full screen)

So this cap started out like any other.  I wanted to make a cap for Evie, and read through her preferences.  Once I had a basic idea of what he liked, I went looking for images.  With Evie, I have one main thing in mind when looking for photos... Blonde.

I don't care how much I like a thumbnail.... if its not a blonde girl, I'm not even going to look at it.  But beyond that, I could go dirty, I could go clean, I could go classy.... I could go anywhere so long as it doesn't look like the girl is being humiliated (a toughie for me as I gravitate toward those photos, but I soldiered on).

To be honest, when I saw these files, I didn't really consider them for Evie.  For one, her hair IS technically blonde, but its colored.  And while I didn't see a particular ban on tattoos in Evie's preferences, I didn't know if she liked them.  And yea... this girl has some tattoos!

But I couldn't turn away.  I couldn't close the window.  I kept seeing her stare back at me.  And as I scrolled through the pictures, I kept feeling different emotions from her.  Excitement, sadness, worry... its was like watching a video with the music turned all the way down.  I didn't know exactly WHAT she was saying, but she was definitely saying something!

I finally left the window open, and continues searching in a new tab.  But after looking at several other photo sets, I was getting absolutely NO emotional context.  Sure, the images were sexy, but they just didn't hit me in the same way.  So... I went back, opened up the image in the first panel, and cropped it down a bit (mainly to get the logo out of the image).

I opened up MS Word, and wrote a couple paragraphs.  It was a fairly bad story about how the rain had trasnformed Adam into this sexy woman named Evie.  And she was talking to her girlfriend trying to convince her that this was a good thing.  That together they could play out her lesbian fantasy.

Well... it was crap.  So I started over.  I just looked at the photo and wrote "No, it wasn't a dream. It was Real"

And looking at the photo, I realized that it fit.  It didn't need more.  In fact adding more would take away from it.  So I took a path that I haven't since I started making captions.  I started writing out this story IN the images.  And like I did with "The Girl with the Pretty Tattoos!" I played with the text as a design element.  I didn't think I would play with each word, but I could still emphasize sentences, and parts of sentences.

Once I finished with the first panel (I added my watermark, but that was all the 'design' work I did), I copied a new photo from the gallery, added it in, and wrote up something for that photo.  I had no idea where the story was going to go.  I just made sure that the story meshed with what was written before it, and that it matched the tone of the photo.

When I got around the 7th panel, I actually tried to wrap it up.  But the story just wouldn't freakng end.  By the 10th panel, I had it in my head that the next one would be the last.  But it wasn't... so the next one would be the last.  But it wasn't....

I was shocked when I finished up at 18 panels.  My previous 'longest caption' was 7 panels.  But then again, those panels were packed with story, and it took me days to write it out.  This took a couple hours, and has just under 400 words.  But when I read it over.... I liked it.  I thought that it was a pretty good story, and that Evie would like it to.

I published it on the Haven, and realized that it was a lot of images to look through.  Especially if someone has to scan back and forth.  But when I went to make this post... well its a whole different thing here.  You see on the Haven all the iimages apear as thumbnails, but when you click on it, it enlarges the image in the message window.  So you can enlarge all the photos and just scroll down reading as you go.

But here... well that would work if I used the Lightbox display.  But I can't turn that on for a single post, and I HATE that display method for everything else.  So I thought about other methods.  I know that Rebecca Molay over at Rebecca's World uses a slide show.  That might work, but when I checked out slide share (the site she uses), I found that it takes power point slide shows, and when I upload them, they would be public (her's are private, but evidently you get that for $19 a month.... not gonna pay for that). so I started thinking video.

I won't bore you with the details. But as of right now I haven't gotten it to work out right.  The video looks good on my screen (its legible), but when I upload it via blogger, it must compress it.  So the smaller text just isn't readable.  I went ahead and included two versions I uploaded (they are just different quality settings.. I'd take one out, but I don't know HOW to remove it from the post).

If I figure out a way to use youtube I might add that (I know youtube lets you select what quality to use).  After all the time getting the music to line up, and making title and credit cards, I just want you to be able to see see it.

*EDIT*

Huzzah!  I got it uploaded to youtube, and it DOES display much better.   I also figured out how to get the previous videos out, so I removed one of them (the low quality one).  I left the other so that everyone can see and learn: don't upload a video through blogger... just upload it to youtube!

For now, since it does have some nudity, I unlisted the video.  It's still there, but you won't find it via search. You need the link.  I believe that this is stopping me from 'adding' the video directly to this post.  So for now here is the link to the youtube 'video' of this cap:

Remember, you can up the quality (it looks best in 720 or 1080), and you should be able to view it full screen.  At my personal resolution of 1920x1200 it looks good (even though it is displaying the images LARGER than the original!)

**EDIT**


It looks like the video was taken down by YouTube.  I can understand the removal as the video did contain nudity, copyrighted pictures and copyrighted music.  But to be honest, the part that hurts is the notice I received about the removal.  According to the notice the video was flagged by a member of the you tube community.  Somone that viewed the video flagged it as 'inapropriate'.  Here is the actual notice:

I could care less about the strike, or even having the video removed.  But somoene that viewed it thought that it was inappropriate.  I linked to this video in exactly three places.  Rachel's Haven (TG caps), The D+X Institute (Forced Femme role playing), and my blog (TG, Forced Femme, caps, dirty dirty place).  I would normally assume that you tube looks through its videos and flags them individually, but I have (had) three videos up on youtube.  One is very similar to this (it is a slide show with some video clips and contains some nudity).  The other is porn.  I don't mean it deals with forced femme, or tg, or some other 'round the way' porn... I mean its a guy fucking a woman.  Both of those videos had copyrighted photos from other sites, and both had copyrighted music.  Being as they've both been up there for 16 months or so, I have to believe that youtube doesn't check them out, and believe their report that says someone flagged this video.

So... you know... thanks for that.

I may look at alternate ways to host the video, but until then I've done all that I can to remove from public view.  Including removing the links everywhere, and even taking down the video hosted here on my blog.

***Edit***

I think I have it uploaded successfully to Daily Motion.  We'll see how long it lasts here (Remember for best results view it in HD):

***Edit***

Daily motion took the video down as well.  As of now, there is no place to see the video.  If anybody has suggestions where I can upload it and have it available for free streaming (in high quality), I'm open to trying again.
