On this day in history, You Tube was made more attractive. =) I uploaded some of my old David Anders video files that have been in my hard drive for a while (some a few years) now.

-One is a clip from his short film "Peacock."

-One is from the Rendezvous convention where he sang with Bradley Cooper and Melissa George.

-Three of the clips are of the interview he did on the TV Guide Channel show "Tv Talk". I've always been bummed at the low quality of the original video, but it was still fun to watch it again. Those clips took me a really long time to edit...the show is 30 minutes long, so I had to cut out a lot of the parts where Sarah Clarke was talking in order to make it shorter. I wanted to edit it to run pretty smoothly though, so I had to time the scene cuts very precisely. It's a good thing David is so damn handsome...it makes it easier to stare at his film clips for long periods of time while editing. =D

A few days ago I edited and uploaded the clips of him and Jennifer Garner hugging at the season 3 dvd release party; and I uploaded the video of him promoting the Alias game on Players.

All-in-all, I feel like I've fulfilled my civic duty as a loyal Sark-ho for the end cap of this year.

Clips can be found here: My YouTube Channel

Be well everyone!

Cheers--Rachel

Recently, I've been going through my hard drive trying to organize my files. I've found some old video footage of David in there. I'll be uploading the files to my Youtube account over the next week or so. (My Youtube Channel is listed on this page under the "Explore Other Vineyards" section on the right.) I'm editing the files first to take out the stuff that's not relevant to David. (Smaller files = better disk space.) I haven't checked my old desktop yet (I have to reconnect it) but I'm fairly certain I have some old interview files on there which aren't even available anywhere else on the internet anymore. I'm really hoping that I didn't delete those files. I won't say which ones they are, because I don't want to get anyone's hopes up in case they aren't on my hard drive. But if I did keep them, I will post them soon. (Those will take a bit longer to edit together, since the interview was broken up into several different videos.) Have a Happy Holiday season everyone!

P.S. I also found some of the smiley's I made back when I used to run the David Anders Pictures forum at Sd-1. I used to love pushing the limits there by making cheeky smileys and icons. (I hid most of them behind the cut below to save space.)  Here's my Holiday set. Please don't steal or re-post these smiley's, I made them for myself. =)

I've been thrilled to watch David Anders on Heroes this year.  As everyone that knows me is aware (hell, it will probably say "Sark's Mistress" on my tombstone) the character of Sark from Alias (played by David Anders) is my favorite character of all time.  I've watched David in all of his other projects because I love his charisma, and yes, he's not hard to look at either.  Yum!  My favorite non-Sark role has definitely been his Heroes work. 

Drunken, limey, samurai Kensei = Absolute brilliance!   =D

The character itself was vastly different from Sark in many ways.  (Yes, I am referring to the character of Kensei in the past tense due to the now public knowledge that Kensei has evolved into the character of Adam Monroe.)  However there were moments where 'the dark side' came sifting behind David's eyes.  He has a amazing gift for showing emotions just beneath the surface.  David seems to have chosen ‘biting his bottom lip, then slowly changing it into a smirk’ as his requisite ‘evil’ facial cue.  And since the man’s got great lips and an incredibly sexy smirk, I fully support his ‘evil face’ decision. =)

Also, in an entirely coincidental Kensei mirrors Sark moment, these little weapons pics make it blatantly clear to me why I’m enjoying him on Heroes so damn much.  On one side, Sark with a sexy weapon.  On the other side, Kensei with a sexy weapon.  David’s certainly growing up…but still positively dreamy.  *swoon*

I haven’t made any fanart for quite a while.  I wanted a Kensei wallpaper for my desktop at work though, so I sat my bum down and dusted off my photoshop program.  Considering I haven’t dabbled with photo editing for nearly a year now, I am very pleased with how this wallpaper turned out.  I’ve included a thumbnail below to show you.  The full wallpaper is behind the cut.  Enjoy!

As stated in my profile, I love doing graphic arts.  Of all the wallpapers and manips I've made, these are the one's I'm the most proud of.

My favorite character Sark (seriously, as a writer, I can only dream to someday create a character HALF as intriguing and unique as him) is from the tv show Alias.  He's the villain on the show, yet he's also very humorous and bright.  He doesn't see himself as a villain, he simply sees himself as a perfectionist...as a professional.  He's a completely unique and clever character, and the actor that plays him (David Anders) handles the role with such grace and wit that when he's in a scene, all of my attention is drawn to him.  So as I said, Sark is also very funny.  He speaks with a British accent, and delivers sarcasm with the same precision that he can deliver a punch during a fight.  So with his great sense of humor, and my fondness for Adobe Photoshop...it only makes sense that I'd enjoy the two combined during my free time.  Much hijinks were had one day when I was looking at pictures of David Anders (Sark) in a costume he wore for a guest appearance on the tv show Charmed. This photo montage below is the end result. It's a very large picture, so be patient and let it all load.  And to those of you who have never seen Alias and therefore don't know firsthand how Sark behaves, you should be aware that he's a bit of a wine fetishist.  =)  Also, below this picture are more Alias characters that I've given little thought bubbles to for the shear pleasure of applying my wit to their lovely faces.
