With Wendy's generous permission, I had to try making one of these myself laugh

So, here are the WMV & RM files for one of my all time favorite fanfics:

For The Greater Good - Windows Media Player Format

For The Greater Good - Real Player Format

by Wendy Richards

and if there is ANYONE out there that hasn't read it, get on over to the Archive!

If she had to move heaven and Earth, perhaps come back to haunt Perry and explain the story after they'd killed her, she would do it.

Trenna,

This was beautiful! It sets the mood of the story so well, and it almost brought me to tears just remembering the story. I have to go read it again!

That was beautifully done, Trenna! You should make lots more <g>

But I must confess, given how few of these things there are and that Wendy's got *three* of them already... I'm jealous! wah! whinging wink

Wonderful, Trenna. Such perfect images to convey the poignancy of this story. You've really managed to capture the mood and envoke all of those same feelings I had when reading the story.

Thanks so much for sharing your gift,
Lynn

One of my absolute very, very, very favorite all time fics, ever...just ripped out my heart, and then Wendy proceeded to stomp on it for page after page and after horribly wonderful page!

And Trenna, you caught that so well. And you used theTitanic theme (which, I should mention, just rips out my heart, stomps it utterly for note after...but I'm repeating myself.) And that was perfect.

Oh man. I have to go lie down now.

You already know how much I love this, Trenna, and how immensely grateful I am to you for making it, but... I'll say it again. laugh Thank you so much! I was bowled over when you wrote telling me that you wanted to make a trailer for the story. And then the finished product... well, it brought a tear to my eye. More than once! smile1

<lol> Well, welcome to TARCE (Trailer Addicts Recovery Co-dependent E-group) With three of us on board now, we can help each other from the all too many nightmares, voices whispering in our heads: THIS IS HOW YOU SHOULD DO IT! and help each other fall asleep in our own bed, instead of the chair in front of the computer..heck, even the floor. If we stay strong, we just *might* be able to convince ourselves that we *do* have time to feed the kids as well! smile1

Such a little thing really, a kiss...most people don't give it a moment's consideration. They kiss on meeting, they kiss on parting, that simple touching of flesh is taken entirely for granted as a basic human right.

Beautifully presented, Trenna - I love the style you've used with the writing. clap clap

And thank you for making a RP version with me in mind. That was sweet of you! sloppy

Great, Trenna!

It's good to see there are more people getting into the trailer business. We keep getting new aspects.

Your style is excellent! Congratulations!

Hope to see more from you soon smile

WOW, everyone...I'm so glad you liked it blush I must admit to trepidation at using Titanic music as people either love it or are very tired of it wink but it seemed to fit so well the sadness of FTGG.

Jess...I'm thrilled to have inspired you to read this great story...you won't be disappointed!

Laurach, Laura, AnKS, Ines, Saskia, CC, Julia, thank you for your comments. I'm glad it had the effect I was looking for, CC laugh

Pam and Lab, I don't know if we'll get around to all 2000+ but in the back of my head I'm looking for a sugary,spicy song and trying to figure out how to make Lois' screen image turn ghostlike wink


Wendy, thanks for the inspiration and don't feel bad about having so many trailers as I'm sure we are way behind if we work on percentages to fanfics. wink

Lynn and Pelican, TARCE sounds nice. This was much more complicated than a music video. Let's head off to the "HOW To..s" section to share some secrets thumbsup
I appreciate your comments because I've been blown away watching trailers from both of you...the effects are quite amazing!

Trenna, it's amazing! Even the use of the Titanic song doesn't look overused )like I would normally say it was) or anything, it's just right!

Not really... I mean, you're not going to make trailers for vignettes that are about 15kb in size, are you? So there's really no excuse for the trailer makers, now that we have three and only about a thousand stories to write trailers to. If you make one per day you could be done in about a year. wink

lol and yay! smile

Oh, and I'm glad to see FARCE now has a sister group! goofy If TARCE will accept trailer-viewers as well as trailer-makers, I think there'll be a large overlap between them wink
