That was awesome! I've only seen one episode of Firefly but I've seen tons of vids, so I know how shiny the footage can be and was excited for what you would do with it. I love the color shift at 0:51; it's quite foreboding and is the perfect way to acknowledge the shift in music and tone. The segment immediately following that contains an absolutely stunning use of overlays and crossfades. I went back and rewatched it a few times because a) there was so much packed in there and b) it looked damn cool.

The narrative was extremely well-constructed, making it both coherent and emotionally impactful even for someone with very little source knowledge like myself. 1:55 onwards is just mind-blowingly awesome. It's hard to pick out favorite moments because the whole thing just flows together so well with such wonderful musicality, but I will say the camera movement over the audio cue at 2:03 was particularly inspired. Amazing work! This will probably go down as one of my favorites from you.

The source is so shiny I clipped far more than I needed because it was all so pretty.

I'm glad that worked because I was worried I got the coloring wrong and it would be icky.

My eleven layers were a bit extensive...

Thank you so much. When I edited the different scores together I tried to make them all flow and I was worried it wouldn't all flow and be choppy.

I have a sick love of that shot.

Yay!
