If I remember correctly, this vid was the longest I've ever taken to edit. I started it in May or so of 2009, but lost the notion to finish it because I had so many issues with the show. Then I started vidding for VVC and the project was left to rot halfway done. I'd really wanted to finish it because it felt like something that would help me come to terms with season 4.5 of BSG, so I started it back up toward the end of December. A lot of my own feelings clogged up the vid to the point where I didn't know if the vid was supposed to be hopeful or grim. I thought the series was going in a different place when I conceived of the vid, but the show gave me a twisted version of what I'd wanted. I have the original meanings that I'd wanted to bring out, but then there's the little me in the background chanting, "but it all turned to shit" or "but that's not really what happened" because I'm evil.

I liked the bookend idea of Hera crashing the two display ships and them actually crashing together in the end. The clip at the end doesn't show as well as I envisioned, but I think the other clips sell the point.

I like making a clusterfuck of lyrical interpretations. It's fun.

I enjoyed your random thoughts and thank you. <#
