Notes

I've been wanting to vid Sam's speech from Houses of the Holy for ages. It breaks me every time - looking back and knowing how much Sam suffered, even though he was saved from his so called destiny. For me this vid is about being able to use images to express what I think of when I now hear that speech. I could write an essay about all this - why I chose each image, the connections etc. so if something doesn't make sense feel free to ask...;)

ETA: The "essay" mentioned above. The whys and wherefores of my clips choices etc.



No money made but comments are gratefully and warmly accepted. <33

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. This is PERFECT. Every pairing of image and dialogue, every dissolve. One of your best works ever -- and considering your works, that's saying a lot. I don't have any questions right now, but I'd surely love to read an essay on how/why you made this.

BRB, gone off to cry.

Wow...thanks so much hun. <3 That's lovely feedback.

hee.. I'm sure an essay would be very boring. Though I've always wanted to wax lyrical about the process of putting a vid together..

But...OMG...where the hell is that pick of Jared from? Is that a manip? *hearts* it.

Never! And I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd love to know the method behind your beautiful madness. :D Dooooooo iittt! Please?

BTW, that icon's by griesmeel, but I don't know where the photo originates. I've never seen it before, myself. It IS gorgeous, though! :)

I'm pretty sure that icon pic is from New York Minute.

ETA: Yup, I was right.
