Vid notes:

When the Levee Breaks is one of my all time favourite Supernatural episodes. I love that we got a chance to see inside Sam's head. I particularly love the way it was done.

In this vid I've tried to capture the intensity of that episode and explore a little bit of what Sam was going through. This has more effects in it than I would normally use, but I wanted to somehow portray Sam's confusion and state of mind and this, for me, was the a way of doing that.

There's a lyric in here that sums it all up for me: "safe from pain and truth and choice" The fact that he wasn't safe from those things and was instead confronted by those very things made me (finally) settle on this song for this video.

No money made but comments are awesome, so feel free *g*

This is a fantastic portrayal of Sam's intense fall out and withdrawal from the demon blood. I mean I know this whole episodes was just one big 'WOW' for me, it was so raw and abrasive on the emotions as you watched it. This vid is a perfect moment in time capturing of that. Jared really pulled it all out in this one and you've used all his emotions so well here. Loved it and loved the song - I'm off to listen to more A Perfect Circle. The effects just slotted in seamlessly and seemed very organic in their usage. Thanks for making and sharing :)

Yay! Thanks hun. :D That episode really was very raw wasn't it? I remember being somewhat sucker punched by it. There was just so much going on. And I agree. JP knocked out of the ball park. His fluctuating emotions and the way he portrayed them were fabulous I thought.

Oh and do listen to more of A Perfect Circle. I was only recently introduced to them and, yeah.. worth a listen. :)

ooh, that's a lovely thing to say. Thank you. It's a fine line with effects I think, so a comment like that is nice to hear.
