I've actually had the idea for this video for some time but just hadn't found the right song for it. That is until I was watching Jericho last night and Mad World (from the Donnie Darko soundtrack and Gears of War commercial) was on it and I remembered how much I liked the song. It just all fell smoothly into place after that.
It's DS9 themed and centers on the Dominion war. It's pretty somber and reflective and I thought the song was a perfect fit for it. I also did another one with an alternate beginning, where before the video and song start, it's a scene from Sacrifice of Angels where Miles and Julian quote a verse from Alfred Lord Tennyson's The Charge of the Light Brigade. I really like the poem and it's perfect with everything else but in the end I decided I didn't like it as much overall. I don't usually care for original audio to be spoken in music vids though I have seen some that are done extremely well. I didn't think mine fell into that category so I left it out. However, I really do like this video and it is one of my favorites of all that I have done.
