I just poked my head up from the Big Bang to find that LJ had gone nuts and added that daft FB crossposting thing. I shan't be using it, and hope none of you will on my LJ either.

I've also been tweaking one of the vids I'm working on for the BB, and there's one shot I'm not happy with. So, any Pros fans out there, can you think of a shot where Doyle is:

  • alone,
  • in a corridor,
  • and looking stressed/upset/angry or otherwise unhappy?

    It's the alone part that matters most. I can think of a few scenes where he's upset and in a corridor, but Bodie always seems to be with him.

    You are my last hope, Obi Wan.

    Erm... I don't know how long the shot lasts but how about the corridor in Fugitive, in the shirt that's gorgeous on him but probably shouldn't be. *g*

    I mean, he's pretty bloody stressed there.

    That's the one I'm currently using, and An doesn't think it works.

    Ya wanna take a look? I could sling you the file.

    It was the one that leapt to mind. They don't spend a lot of time filming them in corridors unless it's a time for Bodie & Doyle to be having a bit of a casual chat on the way to somewhere, arguing with each other, running about shooting people and kicking doors in or running along beside someone's stretcher.

    Perhaps a bear of a less average brain might come up with something.

    Sure, I'd be happy to take a look at the file, let me know if there's a context I need to be aware of when looking at it.

    Doyle's alone and looking a bit perplexed/upset in a hospital corridor just before Bodie walks round the corner in Rogue when Cowley's in hospital (but he's leaning against the wall which possibly detracts a bit from the tension of the scene but he *does* look worried and preoccupied). And I've just remembered..... later on Doyle exits Cowley's room just ahead of Bodie and in the corridor stops to lean back against the wall, looking up to the ceiling (and looking very fed up) and then Bodie follows him out, but for a brief time Doyle's alone.

    I shall definitely give Rogue a look. My memory of that ep was that it was always the two of them, but I really only need 2 seconds of Doyle by himself.

    If you literally mean a couple of seconds there's a quick scene in Involvement just before he goes to see if Ann Holly is OK:

    And there's a very quick scene in a corridor in Blackout where he's walking (a bit fast and you can't really see his expression) towards the hospital room of the woman/hostage he and stuart have just rescued. I'm sorry I don't have a screencap of this scene but it's in the second half of the episode and before we see Bodie and Murphy in the shopping precinct.

    Literally two seconds. Well, actually 1 second and 25 frames, if I remember the sequence correctly. (That's what vidding does to you. You can remember wacky things like frame counts.)

    That Involvement cap looks promising. It would match the corresponding shot of Bodie in the vid better than the Fugitive shot I'm using now.

    I did try that shot from Blackout, but it didn't convey the emotional weight I needed for the vid.

    Thanks, anyway!

    Doyle's alone in a corridor in The Rack - leaning against the wall with his arms crossed just before Bodie comes out of the door and Benny comes to tell them that he's stuffed up the job. Poor Benny. *g*

    I'm at work so can't supply you with a pic at the moment, but I'll have a think and have a look through my screencaps when I get home. *ponders*

    That sounds promising. I'll give The Rack a gander when I get home tonight.

    I'm afraid off the top of my head I can't think of a scene to offer you, but I had to mention how much I love that sentence - it's like a haiku encapsulating the essence of Pros *g*

    (Srsly, it covers the dark themes, the municipal buildings throughout, the Doyle!angst and the loyalty, the partnership, the love...)

    Of course, if I was really clever, I'd now try to write a real haiku. Hmmm.

    Doyle upset and grieved
    In corridor bleak and long
    Bodie always there

    Well, it ain't art. *g*
