Prompt 7: Violet
Violet is a cheerful color that is associated with a variety of things including: originality, self-esteem, insight, poetry, discernment, understanding, creativity, music, perception, inhibition, and health.
Creativity doesn't wait for that perfect moment. It fashions its own perfect moments out of ordinary ones. — Bruce Garrabrandt
Insight, understanding, and creativity are some wonderful qualities to concentrate on for our final 2020 prompt. Here we ask you: what things are you able to offer others to bring a little sunshine into their lives?

My husband thinks that I should take pictures from Ultraviolet, the 2006 movie with Mila Jovovich which was mostly style, but had some good sci-fi elements. And I am not completely averse to it. For one, it predicted 2020s Mask styles.

sunshine challenge 2020 - blueI know that this is the last minute to post. 11:41pm by my clock, but when I think of Blue I remember the classic French movie by Krzysztof Kieślowski of that name. It is part of his three colors set of classic films, and I have adored it since the first time I saw it.

Because I doubt most of you are into international classic cinema in French, I wanted to make a music video, but because it is about composing music, I didn't feel right just using a pop song.

In fact, I used music from the film. I cut the video, and then scored it, but it was much too long. Most videos are about three minutes long, and Kieślowski can spend that long on a single shot. The story is a slow story about recovering from grief. It cannot be rushed!

So I divided the story into 5 videos. Because it is so long, it might get taken down, so watch it before it gets taken down. Needless to say SPOILERS. There is also one content warning for a suicide attempt in the first video. It is much too long, and probably misguided to make, but it was a labor of love. Thanks for the prompt.

day 3 Yellow
I decided to make a video to answer this challenge. In Sherlock, yellow reminds me of the wedding of John and Mary, so this is about how Sherlock went above and beyond to give John the best wedding he possibly could.

day 2 orange

Prompt 2: Orange
Orange is a warm color that is associated with a variety of things including: excitement, vitality, invincibility, speed, vigilance, dedication, loyalty, family, success, friendship, power, change, harvest, and warmth.

Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over. — F. Scott Fitzgerald

Orange can be the warm sunrise after after the darkest night. It can be the bountiful harvest at the end of your hard work. When was a time where dedication and vigilance have reaped their rewards? What future harvests excite you?

Please feel free to answer in whichever way comes naturally to you, be it a memory you share or an artwork you create. If you’d like a more specific idea to kick things off: paint or share a picture that evokes the theme of orange.

When I think of Orange, I think of the Weasley Twins.
Weasley Twins stand in front of black background with arms crossed.

My username came from the name of my favorite character, Aless, in the novel that still remains under my bed unwritten. Nox came from the username that I was assigned by Pottermore when it was still in beta. I like it because it can be one word, Alessnox, or two Aless Nox. The first is useful for forums, and the second doesn’t cause problems when I sign up for a new account and it asks for two names.
My vidding name SaturdayGirl2012 came from the fact that I often do my vidding on Saturdays, and because I thought that it sounded the most like a fourteen year old girl. When I made my first vid, I thought that you had to be a fourteen year old girl to make fan videos, and I didn’t want to stand out as the old fogy that I am.
I gave myself a new pen name when I wanted to write explicit fic, Moire.
I liked it because I always found the moire pattern sensual both visually and physically. It's silky and raised to the touch, illusory, and a bit out of wack. I planned to keep the two usernames separate, but after I posted work under that name, I realized that Archive of our own lumps all of your pen names together. It doesn’t hide anything. Oh well.

Each name has a specific purpose.
Moire – Experimental fiction, especially explicit works, and works in progress.
Alessnox – Finished works of Fan Fiction, and meta, and fan art or commentary
Saturdaygirl2012 – Fan videos

Where did your name come from?
