Vid for sherlockbigbang: "That's Got His Own"
Vid Title: That's Got His Own
Vidder: lolachrome
Inspired by/Written for: storylandqueen's beautiful story for the sherlockbigbang: "You can let go now"
Music: Moby & Oscar the Punk remix Billie Holiday's "God Bless the Child"
Description:"In Sherlock’s opinion, he had, in one way or another, been alone for the majority of his life." Them that's got shall get/Them that's not shall lose/So the Bible said and it still is news/ Mama may have, Papa may have/But God bless the child that's got his own.
Warnings: None
Rating: G
Acknowledgments: Many thanks to
cathexys,
coffeejunkii, and
rhiannonhero for your help with and insight into this vid, especially under time pressure (for my first vid made to a deadline!) Much thanks also to
kiki_miserychic for sharing her casting ideas for young Sherlock. Oh, and this if for my 3 yo daughter, who begged and begged to listen to the "scary song" on youtube with "Oscar the Punk not Oscar the Grouch."

Vid Notes: This vid has been a strange pleasure to make, and a new experience--my first time vidding to a deadline, and to a story (a very different experience!) Storylandqueen's story was inspiring on so many levels, and I wished I could clip the scenes that played across my mind as I read, so that I could truly depict the story's narrative in this vid. But I had to satisfy myself with capturing some of what I walked away from in the story--a new understanding of Sherlock, his history, his relationship with his family, his ambivalence about social bonds, and his investment in John. To get there, I used two additional source texts: the film Joshua (which I discovered thanks to kiki_miserychic) and one of my very favorite movies of all times, Antonioni's unforgettable The Red Desert. A little intimidating to vid Antonioni, but I'm so glad I decided to go for it. Hopefully all the different pieces come together to form a whole, and a whole that speaks in part to Storylandqueen's beautiful fic. If nothing else, I hope this vid entices you to check out "You Can Let Go Now" if you haven't already. This entry was originally posted at http://lola.dreamwidth.org/44757.html.
