This fulfils my final prompt "colour" on my vid_the_grid table!! *throws confetti* \o/



First up - thanks to the lovely smilla02 for this wonderful song and prompt. I've loved getting my teeth stuck into something meaty. And uh..thank you for your awesome feedback. <33

How on earth do I sufficiently thank my betas on this project?! To counteragent who has been with me from the very beginning. Listening to my ideas and checking out numerous early drafts. Thank you so much for your help, cheerleading and wonderful ideas. <33

To my long time beta and friend _sharvie_. I've said it before, but I'll say it again; your eye for detail is down right scary. And damn impressive. Thanks for the push to get this right honey and for your wonderful suggestions. <33

And to maichan808 for being my "fresh eyes" once all this was pretty much said and done. Your thoughts and comments helped immensely. Thank you sweetie.

Vid Notes

It was very early on that counteragent said to me "epic vid is epic". She was not kidding. *g* Not only in the scope of the story, but the process of putting it together was pretty epic. Not least because I decided to use external footage to help show the world that was saved. It's the first time I've used it to this extent and it certainly has been a learning curve.

I chose to use it because I feel we never really get to see "the real world" in the SPN 'verse. I not only wanted to use it to highlight that fact, but also to show a world that was oblivious to the sacrifices our boys had made.

There are a few themes running through the vid and I suppose I hope the vid speaks for itself. But, in a nutshell, it's an exploration of the various actions that not only set the apocalypse in motion but how each character's journey took them to the moment of being able to save the world.

I also wanted to show a little of who these boys are and why they do what they do. During discussions with counteragent I found it interesting to discover that the boys are all about saving families and yet in saving the world they destroyed their own. There's a little section in the vid dedicated to this side on them.

Enough blab. :D

No money made but comments are gratefully and warmly accepted. <333

OH MY GOD, THAT'S FREAKIN' FABULOUS!!!

Wow. Just...WOW!

Your vids are always something special, but I think you may have outdone yourself this time, kiddo. And the really special thing is you took a song that's been vidded really superbly in this fandom by another talented vidder and made it your own. That's tough to do. But you succeeded brilliantly.

The song lends itself wonderfully to SPN and vidding in general with its rhythm and lyrics, and the way you used it to chronicle the journeys, not only of Sam and Dean, but of Cas, worked better than I ever could have imagined. I was enthralled. Truly. Good, good stuff.

YAY!! Oh hun... I'm so happy you watched and liked it! \o/

I didn't know it had been vidded before (which is probably a good thing otherwise I might have been tempted to check it out)... was it the sweetiejen one? I've since seen it and really liked what she did with it.

Thanks again sweetie. Every now and then I like to get my teeth stuck into something meaty. Which means it'll probably be something light and fluffy next... :D :D

*heffa hugs*

Yeah, it's the Sweetie Jen one, which I think is brilliant. So the fact that you were able to come in, do your own take on the song and make me squee like this is impressive indeed! Great work.

Thanks! Yeah - greyowl88 made mention of it also.

Usually, if I know a song has been vidded to that's had an impact I won't try and repeat it. When smilla02 won the raffle and she gave me this song it was the first I'd heard of it. It blew me away.. as did her idea for what she wanted to see. Luckily it wasn't along the same lines as SJ's.. expect maybe my "Sam section"... :D

Thanks again babe. Means a lot to me. *hugs*
