That was wonderful and sad. I'm glad you're posting, and you've motivated me to move onward with what I'm doing vidwise, instead of treading water which is what I do best lately. :)

I liked the filtering you did, making so much of the vid look like old, faded kodak instant photos, and those moments when you ran the clips backwards were very effective. Like, wow! effective. Nice jump cuts as well.

Treading water might be contagious. I seem to actually be producing things this year, but I feel like there are so many projects that just sit there, unfinished. ARGH!

Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you liked it. :)

WOA. I've NEVER thought this could be turned into an SPN vid, so you basically blew me away with this song choice alone!

I really loved the flow and the editing and how you sped up at the choruses and slowed down a little during verses.

I totally know what you mean about making a video for such a long time. I mean, people would assume that you spent a lot of time thinking about it, editing it, going over and over the details and stuff. AND YES OMG SEASON 7 SO MUCH SOURCE AAAA *___*

and oh 3 years? that has got to be some sort of a record. Can you tell what it is? :DDD

And I loved the aspect ration and the colors - so beautiful together! ♥

It's a lot a pressure, right? I say I worked on it for a year, and you go, "OREALLY? THIS BETTER BE AWESOME!" And, you know, it was a really hard earned video that I spent a lot of time thinking about, but sometimes I think I should just say, "hey, I did this saturday, what do you think?" :) It might ease the nerves a bit, lol.

The three year vid has changed forms so many times I'm not even sure I know what it is anymore. It's a curse or something at this point. I don't know why I can't finish it.

Thank you for the feedback!

Yes! Plus, you always think about it, like, in the back of your head there's always this though that can't leave you alone *__* And then when you're finally done and everyone thinks that it's gonna be huge you think like thank god I finished it at all >.< lol

Oh man, I am like 5 years past the over-saturation point of Sam/Dean vids that I didn't think I was gonna ever sit through a Sam/Dean vid again, but you proved me wrong. This is so fresh, and I can't quite put my finger on it but it has something to do with how you have a particular talent of cutting to the heart of emotional content. Not just the surface melodrama that got me sick of Sam/Dean in the first place, but something far deeper and more honest. A lot of that came down to the clip choices, the emphasis from early s1, the childhood flashbacks, a focus on intimate moments rather than big epic setpieces, so that when you actually get around to the setpieces like Sam falling into the pit, they feel a lot more earned ( ... )

Oh gosh, you murder me with your awesome, thank you. Yeah, the surface melodrama has kind of worn me down on them too. I love them so so much, but I feel like I need them to finally get a piece of happiness, to reconnect. I feel like maybe they're not still at least: "oh betrayal, how can you do this to me i'm your brother woe!" but I want to feel about them the way I did when Dean slid to his knees in the mud and to grab Sam, who was dying in his arm, and it was real, and it wasn't pretty, but they were connected. I want Show, Not Tell, again. Don't tell me they're co-dependent, just let them be co-dependent okay? And give Dean some emotions back, because this whole thing used to matter to him. Not that he doesn't have plenty of reasons to be depressed and numb, but I need the magic of his face to vid with ( ... )
