new vid! Harry Potter - Grace
I am stunned. I've completed a vid. Not the sweet charity vid I was supposed to have finished by now, but still, a vid.
Song: Grace by Kate Havnevik
Fandom: Harry Potter
Summary: Nothing comes easily. Spoilers for Order of the Phoenix.

I've been really stuck on my Sweet Charity vid, and just vidding in general. I really hate my "style". I get too caught up in the narrative and being linear. I thought I would try something to see if I could evoke a feeling rather than tell a literal story that moves people. So this is my attempt. My goal was to not think too hard about the linear structure and instead focus on movement, flow and the emotion I was trying to get across. Also I gave myself a time limit. No more than a week, so I couldn't get all bogged down in the tiny little decisions.
So the vid! It's a sorta combination character study/overview of Harry's life. Harry Potter just wrecks me. Especially when I think about all he's lost and how no matter how many people in his life might love him he's destined to ultimately fight his battle alone and risk losing them all. So that's what this vid is about. And also, I wanted it to be really pretty. I got a pretty decent download of OotP so there are a few clips in there.
As always, I'm a feedback junkie!
