wow. i seriously adore this vid. it's just awesome! woah...
everyone else probably already said it better than me, but i have to add my own couple (okay, a bit more than a couple, i admit) of words why i love this vid to its tiny little pieces. actually, it's difficult because i don't really know myself ;) but it's a real piece of art - thank you so much for creating it!
first, i love the way you characterized mal. it's moving & painful & beautiful - you can see his bitterness & his humanity & also his vulnerability. i love the way you centered everything around his experience in the war & made him relive the event through his relationship/meeting with simon. it's just... wow (again, i know - can't seem to find the right words at all). if i'm already with simon - of course i already love this just because it's mal/simon - i adore those two. it's one of my absolute favorite pairings, because it's so harsh and beautiful and real.
then of course i love the way you edited everything - the mask & layers & what not. and especially the way you moved between the situations of the war and aboard the serenity with simon & combined them in the end with the scenes from serenity, so lovely & very powerful.
i oviously loved the whole vid, but i have a ouple of moments i love best (doesn't everyone?): ** ~0:20 - where the clip of mal's face in the war changes with one one where he is the spacesuit - i really don't know why but for me this is such a powerful moment - maybe because the situation changes so much & mal is still stuck back there in the war... still the same, maybe? **1:05ff - many different, fast clips - of the planets/the house/etc. this looks so stunninly beautiful - once more: wow. ** 1:36 -'i'll be here quite a while' and the following musical sequence. so good. i love the way you mirrored (?) the clip to the music, while they are just sitting there, yay! **2:03ff - when simon is shot in serenity. this is just so powerful *gulp*
erm, yes. i'll just stop now, i think i have babbled enough - at least you can see that i really really like it - & i'm repeating myself, i know :) and now realyl for the last time: thank you so much for creating this, now i really have to go and watch it again, yay!
