Well-done, Ivana!
Magdalena - 06.07.2008, 21:51
It's very touching after all these news. What I really appreciate about the video is that you completed all the materials and gathered in one place.
I didn't even think you could make such video, so it's a nice surprise for me :-)
Of course, I love the Frida & Pierce scene. I am very pleased to see you gave both girls equal time in the video :-)
:thumbup:

Oh, THANK YOU, Ivana; it is fantastic, great; it touches deeply my heart and my soul...
(One little happy tear...) :applause:

"So I say thank you for the video" :wink:
but i still can't believe it...so lovely seeing the girls soo happy together again!!!my family already thinks i'm mad, as i just can't stop smiling... :D
Fire&Ice - 06.07.2008, 22:47
Thanks!
Magdalena, I didn't in fact manage to do it, but it took me a lot of clicking and still-making.. I was planning to do the circle too but I was just too nervous and tired today,
which you can see because it is not perfectly in synch. I am happy with the pictures but I had crashes while making the clip so when I reopened the folder, I probably forgot to tweak something to make it better so...
I really wasn't in the mood to make it better today.. :P
I might tomorrow and will definitely do that for my large file and VCD. I may put it on Photobucket and pm you the link. :wink:

And please remember - that's a great video here! If you feel that it should be improved, then you are a real artist - they always feel that something could be done better in their work ;-)

Thank you, Ivana.. for all your hard work, it's much appreciated.. The video is great, & such a nice memory to cherish.. :love4:
PS.. I loved the music as well.. ABBA was singing Live there?? :shock:
Thanks so much.. :wink:
Fire&Ice - 06.07.2008, 23:49
Yes, it is from.. ehhh Midnight Special! Live! The sound file is not the best but I was in a hurry to do the video today and I guess I could have done a better job.
Thanks for viewing! 8)

Of course I did! It is about the girls, not only :frida: :lol:
I wish Agnetha was interviewed too, that way I would have had more material...
I must admit I did not make much Bjorn stills. :lol:
xxlozengerxx - 07.07.2008, 00:06
Lovely video, Ivana :D
skm - 07.07.2008, 02:13
Well done, we needed a video to commemorate that wonderful day.
A little bit embarrassed to say that I immediately noticed that the song version is not the recorded one and thought, it must be Streep from Mamma Mia. Damn, Streep sure sounded like Frida here. The more I listened, the more I thought it was uncanny how her voice resembled Frida. :oops: Okay, I'm now going to go and shoot myself for this faux pas.
Honey, Honey - 07.07.2008, 03:38
Yes, Ivana, it's wonderful thank you so much. I just keep looking at those pictures of them together. It's like a dream come true. They must have been so close at one time, and I'm hoping that they will get close again. THEN I could have one more dream--maybe the two of them could get together and make an album. I really don't care that ABBA won't record again--ABBA was a phenomenon in at a certian moment in time, for me anyway, BUT what if Agnetha and Frida would sing together again! Oh, well--I can dream!
Carribean - 07.07.2008, 03:52
Good job Ivana!
Gosh there are so many photograps of those few minutes and I love them all. What a day that was and who would have thought that this would happen!!
:wink:
Maxi-saxi - 07.07.2008, 05:10
Ivana you have done another brilliant job,
thank you
Maxi-saxi :wink:

There was no doubt in my mind that I won't be using any MM stuff for this video - or any other video for that matter.
I also did not want to use the official MM soundfile because we've heard that one so many times.
It had to be something different. I had three options - TOTP live file - but we hear that Brit talking beforehand and the song starts from the verses so no famous intro.
I could also use one of the fan recording concert files but I wanted a better sound.
So there was the Midnight special file there. I regret it was damaged at the very beginning so I had to crop it just a little bit. :P
Has anyone noticed the lip-bite tribute? :D It is the balcony closeup. Also her facial expressions up there are precious. It is one of my favourite moments there.
I actually had to make a few shorter video clips out of the stills I have been making (big job, with all that print-screening, cropping of at least 200 stills :shock: ) and when I started to put them together, I was absolutely surprised how some things fit into the lyrics - such as Agnetha's "bye" from the balcony and "bye bye" in the song. :shock: When you are watching that Agnetha sequence, it is the whole clip, not stills one after another.

Again: wonderful, Ivana. Keep up the good work. You might have to quit your job and become a full-time director. :wink:
jenlovesabba1982 - 07.07.2008, 10:51
well done fire & ice whata fantastic video! still cannot beileve it sooo happy !
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: would been nice if Agnetha* got interviewed too but can't have what you want sometimes ! just sooo happy !
Fire&Ice - 07.07.2008, 16:18
Thanks again guys! :)

That would be fun - but only ABBA comes in question. They (and :frida:) are so inspirational to me. I can't imagine doing any other video but ABBA.. hehe!
Anyway, I am still quite fascinated by Agnetha stills. Here are my favourite:
Girl power! :wink:
QUE PASSA??? :lol:
Emmanuelle - 07.07.2008, 16:26
A fantastic job, like all your other videos, but I have even more admiration for this one since you put it together in a fairly short time and with a limited amount of material - yet you manage to make it so wonderful !
Fire&Ice - 07.07.2008, 16:30
Thanks Emmanuelle!
I have actually missed some things and I am starting to kick myself for not doing some more caps.. :P I have discovered another video (I HOPE they all end up on youtube..) filmed from the ground, I think Danish tv, you can see Agnetha, and you can see Frida doing fun dancing on the balcony.. Gotta make more stills..lol!
DancingQueen - 07.07.2008, 17:06
Very nice, thank you! Excellent choice of music, I must say.
I've been cheated by you since i don't know when. So I made up my mind, it must come to an end..
:lol:
Toni - 07.07.2008, 18:06
Thank you Ivana, for saving this very special day in ABBA´s history for us in your beautiful video. :kiss:
restareabear - 08.07.2008, 00:29
Awesome as usual Ivana! Somehow I was able to get to youtube from work today! Usually they have it banned but your link let me in so I was able to watch! Just AWESOME!
Thanks so much, once again!
Fire&Ice - 08.07.2008, 00:36
You are welcome guys. :)
May I say I've watched a few more clips and made stills and I am thinking of redoing the video... :roll: :lol:
My intention is to catch ALL parts of what was going on on that balcony. So far we've seen Frida and Pierce, then a large part of Frida handling the glasses, taking them on and off, then pulling out Stellan, (I found that part by myself and by pure coincidence! :shock: ) but I couldn't find a video that followed immediately after Christine Baranski and Agnetha joined.
You should see the interaction of the girls.. Very interesting!
I also want to improve the circle dance and I think I found more pictures for that one! I don't want stills for it for some reason.
I wish all parts to be there on youtube..
By the way, does anyone know if it is possible to connect a photo camera to TV set and record a video tape contents that are played on the VCR??
I have a short Pierce Brosnan and Bjorn interview that was shot the day before the London premiere, made by Pink TV.
Gunnar - 08.07.2008, 00:42
Aaaawwwww.... I want it on a official Universal-dvd now Ivana. It's so beautifully done! I just love it!
:-) Gunnar
Fire&Ice - 08.07.2008, 00:49
:D I wouldn't mind that at all Gunnar!
However, I am making a BETTER, much better version! :blob1:
Oh the curse upon the artist... the masterpiece is never finished! :rotfl: :shock: :D :rotate:
Gunnar - 08.07.2008, 00:54
Well... I was very impressed by this one Ivana... but if you're releasing a much better one (wow)... then I guess it's just to sit back and wait....

LOL I don't know but I had to put her there!
I think she was employed there, but it is amazing how she looks like the 76 Frida! :lol:
Linda J - 10.07.2008, 20:32
:lol: Maybe she's a fan, who wants to look like her idol?? :wink:
Thanks again, Ivana.. Love your video!! :D ..I even love the music, it's a version of "Mamma Mia!" I hadn't heard before.. :love4:
:excited:
Fire&Ice - 10.07.2008, 21:44
That one was taken from Midnight Special, it is live. It was the best track I could think of for a video.
I don't want to use studio recordings but always something special like a live track (I wonder and TYFTM I have already used..) and I even thought of a concert recording but then I really needed a better file so MM live MS was perfect!
That is why I was in a hurry to put up the first video - I did not want anyone else to do it before me! :lol: :lol: :stupid:

I suffered from a creative block after the reunion.. I couldn't concentrate on anything else lol, but these days are over now.
A hint - if Frida could fly on a broomstick, she could fly a chopper too. :lol:
