OMG so much love. ♥

I love how this style makes each individual frame important - you're drawn to pay attention to each one in a completely different way than we usually 'read' video.

oh, WOW! your mind has to be an amazing place - your vids are just so damn original & inventive all the time, i love it. & this vid!
this stop-motion thing you use here looks completely awesome and shiny & i especially adore the overlays you use - sometimes you show two facial expressions at once... i'm not sure why but i think that looks stunning! it somehow shows all the conflicting emotions & stuff that happens in this relationship.

& of course that brings me to: MARTHA! ♥. eeh, i love that girl - you manage to show a lot about her & how the doctor sees her in this little vidlet...
*squishes vid* THANK YOU for making this :D *squishes you*



ps. ever since you told me about this song i'm in love with it & this artist. okay i only know this one album, but it's so good ;) and it makes the vidlet even more fun to watch...

Oh god, this is GREAT. It's the first piece I've ever seen that shows you how alien the Doctor really is, how he sees the world, how he experiences time.

To the human eye, this is both fragmented and obviously a unified whole, the critical Martha moments overlapping and blending seamlessly, but at the same time feeling disparate, scattered, glimpsed for the briefest of seconds. There's something profound here about how memory works, how pieces of it fade, that recalls [livejournal.com profile] sweetestdrain's "Don't Lose Yourself", but this is unique. I can totally believe the Doctor remembers this way.

What a brilliant technique! I'm in awe.

!

Amazing use of overlays and juxtaposition to make statements about the characters. So much context and it's saying so much. It's only 1 min, but it has the narrative weight and depth of a 3+min vid. Amazing.

Also, I'm in love with your composition all through. I particularly love how you have faces/expressions positioned to peek through layers. Favorite is 0:33, but that's one of many moments.

*bows to my vid goddess*

Oh, how intriguing! I love the premise of this vid because it prompts me to think more about how the Doctor does see Martha ... and I hope it's how it's portrayed in this vid. :p I'm so in Martha's pov when watching the show I honestly hadn't thought too much about it!

also, your editing here is so unusual in a great way. It may not be actually unusual but it's very different from the way I vid so it feels so to me. For instance I love the use of the fast cuts between still shots at the beginning, and all the uses of layered images. I can't believe how well you control them! My eye totally follows the vid despite how much is going on. It's crazy! I seriously don't know how you do it.

WOW! That was fantastic!!!! The use of stop motion was just BRILLIANT and I love how dynamic it was even though there were only stills in it. I can't even imagine how you did it! But WOW!

And aw, Martha! She needs more love from the fandom. ♥

I loved it, it's just genius!

This actually made me shiver, because even though it's about Martha, it's as much about the Doctor, and how different he is. How old, time so different to him. Fantastic!
