Vid: The Shadows Shift The Wind [Dollhouse]

So this is a little something I made for Kitty, cause she told about this cool band - Falling up - and I found this song, and I thought that it's cool for the video for the Dollhouse.
I actually made this vid after episode 104 was aired, so I guess there won't be too many spoilers for you.

Lyrics: *for the edited version
They… they come
I can feel this…

They… they come
The fog it lifts, the shadows shift the wind
Within the lanterns have been lit
So slip the night
So start the race, your nameless place is gone
i know it's only fight

Feel this now
The healing starts, the motion floods your hope
Alone, your moving past your home
So lift your thoughts
You're letting go of all you used to know
and now his blood will flow

I can feel this…

Phones are tapped again
They know just what I've said

While you're sleeping
you know I have escaped
While you're sleeping
You know I've been erased

The edge of the knife is choosing it's team
(It's the only way, it's the only way)
The start of the threat is that I'm not asleep
(It's the only way, it's the only way)

You know…
While you're sleeping
you know…

*squee to death* Thank you, Loki! This is the best present ever!! Hehe. No one's ever made me a viddy before and you made it with my fav band of all time!! *jumps up and down*

First, OMG I love what you did with the song. It's just so cool the way you mixed the original with the remix. The song ended up fitting really well with Dollhouse. I wasn't sure before how well it would work, but with the change to the original song - it worked flawlessly. Also, love the video title :P.

Your clip choices were spot on and you chose perfect ones for the lyrics (and thats tuff to pull off with this band). I loved every second of this. The reveresed and speedy clips were great!

Awesome job once again. *hugs you* and *downloads*
I'm gonna go watch this about another billion times :P

*hugs*
Glad you liked it hon! ^^
Oh, noone? EVER? oO It's pretty strange, that noone has ever made a video for such an awesome girl ;)

I'm glad you liked my edited version =) I like mixing songs, and I think this one turned out ok :)

Yeah, their lyrics is to DIE.FOR. I mean, I tried to make a SPN vid for their other song, but I failed >.< Lyrical interpritation - hard. And this is the fact.

Enjoy hun! Sorry it took me SOOO freakishly long to post it...

[winterevanesce.livejournal.com]

Hehe! *squishes you*
You do an awesome job at mixing music. I'm glad you got into that 'cause some of us fail at mixing. *points to me*

Their lyrics are to die for! One of the reasons why I love them so much. Even when the lead singer wrote up the meaning of the songs - It still difficult to understand them fully. *he's genius - it's true facts* If I understood them all, I'd probebly have all my vids to their songs, lol.

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

He actually writes the meaning? oO I'd like to read it then :)

[winterevanesce.livejournal.com]

I think it was only for a few albums. He didn't do it for the one that has that song you used.

It looks like he only did it for "Captiva" album. Which even by reading those, I still don't fully understand the meanings. Like for instance, one of my favorite songs -> http://jesusfreakhideout.com/lyrics/new/track.asp?track_id=8573

WTF does that mean? lol. I'm telling you, he's genius. I feel like I'm stupid because I don't understand. Haha.

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Hehe....yeah...I know the feeling lol

Oh wow, I really love this. I know nothing about vidding, so I'm afraid I can't really comment on any details, not knowing the right words, but I really like it a lot.

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Well, you just said the very right word ;)
Thank you! Glad you liked it :)

[sabaceanbabe.livejournal.com]

I really love this. It has so much energy and it's a great overview of Echo and the show itself. The overlays and ghosting and transitions are just *guh*... What program do you use?

Also, please consider posting it over at dollhousevideos? :)

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Glad you liked it :) I use Sony Vegas.
And thanks for the link! I sure will post this vid there ;)

[sweetiejen.livejournal.com]

A Dollhouse vid from you? Eeee, it's my lucky day! This was excellent. I like how you used the clips from the opening credits and continued them with the episode footage. The song was great too!

Ah, makes me want to vid Dollhouse...

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Why everybody think that I make only SPN videos?..
*vidding Blade*

Well, go for it! I'm glad that my video made you wanting to vid Dollhouse, go and open new Vegas project ;)

[sweetiejen.livejournal.com]

Oh I didn't think you only made SPN videos. I was just surprised/excited to see a Dollhouse vid from you because I wasn't aware you were following the show.

And... maybe I will! But I don't have a song. Or footage. Oops.

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm a few episodes left, so I need to watch them :)
Hehe, well, who knows - maybe you will make a DH vid someday ;)

[bionic.livejournal.com]

wow, that was awesome!! I really liked the repetition and fast-forward rewind kinda stuff (don't' know what to call it lol) and just all the stylistic effects were really great at capturing the chaos of all Echo's experiences and the memories she doesn't have. I like how it all slows down at the end and she's looking at herself in the mirror. Love it!

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much ))

[dreamrequiem.livejournal.com]

Great job, Loki!! I love this one, the editing is stellar!

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

[natys86.livejournal.com]

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Thanks SO much! ^^
