Let me know what you think! I'm concrit-positive.

Really liked it. Nice editing and great song!

Thank you so much!

Nice!
The 'flickering' cuts where a really well-used effect, and the music and clips worked really nicely together.
I usually go for the happy-jokey vids more, but I definitely liked this!

Thank you! I appreciate it.

LOVED IT! I don't think I can say that any louder with more caps, so let me just repeat it. I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!

Opening shot: I love how the Tardis pulses in & out of existence in time to the guitar pulses.

I really like how this is formatted, in terms of short clips separated by quick blackness. It gives the entire video a choppy feel that matches the song beautifully.

0:23 - Love The Doctor leaning into the wall on "low moan"
0:32 - Love the jump cuts of The Doctor's face on "can't get"
0:37 - Like the Tardis in the opening shot, I love The Doctor fading in & out with along with the pulsing in the music.
0:45 - LOVED the jump cuts of planets getting closer & closer.
1:02 - I LOVE how you've edited Rose holding out her arm to "swan song" here. It's very subtle, but really effective.
2:09 - "I am drawing graffiti on your body" -- I LOVE showing the Tardis controls on this line. The Tardis is his body. I LOVE YOU!

Dude. You made a gorgeous Doctor Who video to one of my all time favorite Ani DiFranco songs. I might have to marry you now. *g*

As far as concrit goes, I did notice a few stray frames, but I watched it in RealPlayer (which I've noticed tends to pick up stray frames that other players don't.) I'll have to watch it again in VLC. Really, though, I love this video so much that stray frames don't take away from it AT ALL!

Ok, off to watch it again. *happy dance*

Wow, thank you! That is glorious feedback. And I am totally accepting offers of internet marriage today *g*

There are some stray frames that I didn't catch - I hope I'll have time to edit those out and repost eventually - but for the most part, I'm pleased with how this turned out, so I'm quite proud you like it! Thank you!

Oh, that was just beautiful. I really like the editing (the flickering goes very well with the song), and even though I haven't watched all that much DW, the vid still left me with pangs of heartache. Lovely job.

Thank you very much!

I said it before, and I'll say it again: I LOVED this! The song fits perfect with the effects, and the whole thing sort of breaks my heart a little each time I watch it. Which I keep doing. Bravo!!

Thank you so much! And thanks for the first lookover, too.
