Vids of the Months

[amnisias]

Look at that - I've not posted any of the 'Vids of the Months' for the last 18 months! Have the recs for 2013, for any previous recs see here (appologies to those who I did not post). Let me know if you find any bad links, it's a cut & past job from my web page, and the html sometimes gets 'Lost in Translation'.

Somebody That I Used To Know by froggimus_rex:

I'm a big fan of vids for rare source, and this one hits all my kinks. This BBC miniseries is both visually as dramatically excellent, but difficult to watch. I did not ever expect anybody to be able to pull of to vid it and do it justice, but boy, do I love to be proven wrong.  (The Fall)

Stars, Skies, Boats & Seas by AnnaGiuliaFiction:

To everyone I found and everyone I lost...Thank you for staying, or - if you had to leave, thank you for the stardust you left for me to remember you by.  (Multi)

[October 13]
Here I am by tearful_eye:

A most joyous vid, uplifting, beautiful and dynamic. The vidder turns a schmoopy love song into a celebration of dragons, fandom and life! (Dragons)

[September 13]
Hymn to the Hollow by beccatoria:

Sleepy Hollow is a brillinat new show which offers OTT silliness, drama, supernatural history and emotions in equal messures. This vid hones in on the feels and the relationships, I love the music choice and editing. (The Ike & Abby Show)


[August 13]
Barton Hollow by fan_eunice:

This vid is as dramatic, emotional and disturbing as the source but also adds further layers - a great exploration of the main characters.  (Homeland)


[July 13]
Bad Things by niyalune:

An exploration of how the adults are violent and abusive towards the teens in ways that can be described as sexually charged, without the kids ever consenting. (Teen Wolf)


[June 13]
The Price of Imagination by meivocis:

In honor of the weirdest, creepiest, goriest, most disturbing New Kid on the Block Box. This vid makes great use of the stunning visuals and creates a dream-like atmosphere to show us what it's like to be Will Graham.  (Hannibal)

[May 13]
Somewhere a Clock is Ticking by obsessive24:

Visually stunning source, brilliant vidder and Shakespeare - a match made in heaven! There was nobody who did not know who the vidder of this festivid was. (Hollow Crown)

[April 13]
Shake It Out by mresundance:

My fav from last year's VVC. Beautiful source and powerful song that work on so many levles - as a tragic love story, as re-framing of history or as an allegorical tale. Whichever way you read it - it's very affecting (The New World - Movie)


[March 13]
Never Fogotten, Never Coming Back by StrangerInTokyo:

A very effective vid that makes the best use of a hauntigly beautiful song and harrowingly beautiful source. Great use of text and lyrics as well. No prior knowledge of source required. (NaPolA)

[February 13]
Falling Earth by Faith:

The end of the world as we know it, depressing yet beautiful. (Multifandom)


[January 13]
Rid of Me  by condnsdmlk:

Love & pain combined in a seductive mix of carnal desires and deep emotional conections, this vid is in turn touching, harrowing and sexy.  (Legend of the Seeker)
