This is really exciting! Fantastic job of capturing the immediacy and panic of the characters.

(Of course, now I just want another one for The Wish. "Wonderful World" anyone?

Thank you :) I really wanted to focus on that aspect of the episode and not ( this time ) on the pretty white stuff :)

And now that's what I call a nice vid bunny for The Wish you have there. Wonderful World? hmmm .... which version did you have in mind??

Wonderful World rebcake March 17 2010, 20:18:14 UTC

I always think of the Louis Armstrong version first, but I don't think I've ever heard a version that didn't make me tear up, including one by a children's chorus. It's so beautiful and cognitively dissonant. I always thought it would be a perfect match for The Wish, with its slo-mo carnage and desolation. Alas, I am not a vidder. I'm willing to make cookies, though!

The Louis Armstrong version is the one I think of first too.

I've got the lyrics along with the song now.There is definitely potential for some interesting interpretation with clips, in a very twisted way.

So I'm kind of hooked with this bunny now and if you have any specific scenes or ideas please feel free to send me an lj message.

You already know I'm a fan... and here again, I'm bluffed. Your editing is, for lack of a better word, amazing.

edit: forgot to say, your choice of music is perfect!

Gosh thank you :) It's an old one but I'm still quite pleased with it.

As soon as I heard the song I knew what I wanted to do and this was the episode that seemed so right.

Fantastic!

Works as a perfect trailer for the episode.
