Oh my god! The Master & Sylar! Wow, I love you so much for combining these two. I love the concept of drums & ticking. It's like...duel whimsical, psycho power trips. LOVE THIS!!!

(Btw, your imeem link loops back to this LJ post.)

Thank you!! I'm so happy you like it, I loved your Halloween vid from awhile back :)

Gah, I was messing around with the html all afternoon and inevitably that's what would happen. Fixed now.

Thanks very much! I had concerns that it wouldn't work (The Master's too extroverted, Sylar rarely smiles) and I'm very happy that it did.

Fixed that pesky link :P

Very nice! You have a lot of great visual details and really manage to merge these two together into one theme, which doesn't seem like the easiest thing to do (even with the watches).

Thank you! That was sorta because it was an instrumental; being an ex-band kid I guess makes me more inclined toward doing things like syncing to certain notes or runs, I always thought that that looked cool.

This is incredibly cool!

Thank you!

Diabolical campiness -- you're so right! This is such a good conceptual fit (love the parallels you draw with watches/sound of drums early on...pretty much makes the vid a conceptual slam-dunk right out of the gate!), and then your editing is really dynamic. Lots of great musicality, like at 0:40ish where Sylar sends the suspended glass shards flying.

Thank you, I really appreciate the comment! Yeah, the musicality comes from me being an ex-high school band kid, although Sylar actually does resemble a conductor whenever he's TKing someone. Conductors/overlords orchestrating grand/evil concepts, naturally!
