Vidder's Notes

Vidder's notes on YouTube:

"'I am grateful, but...you were well away. Why come back?'

A dozen quips came to mind, each crueler than the one before, but Jaime only shrugged. 'I dreamed of you,' he said." ~ A Storm of Swords

Relationship study: Jaime Lannister and Brienne of Tarth Fandom: Game of Thrones Song: Snow Patrol - Open Your Eyes

************************************** Hey guys! I'm back! I have been in the states for the summer and I came back a week ago. I'm sorry about the long hiatus but now I will have time for vidding again. This video was requested by a lot of you, however unfortunately I couldn't finish it before I left. I felt bad for that, so when I came home this was my first thing to do. So here it is, my second Jaime/Brienne vid. I don't even know what to write as a discription for this video, because I can't express with words how brilliant season 3 was and especially this storyline. I was very nervous and excited about this before, but it surpassed my every expectations. Gwen and Niko is the perfect Brienne and Jaime, and I couldn't have dreamt a better writing for their story. It was as beautiful and heart-wrenching on screen, as it was in the books. So thank you GRRM, D&D, Nikolaj and Gwen!:)

I know it's a very long video (again), but I worked hard on this and I hope you will like it!:) Oh and you can watch this vid as you like, you don't need to ship them romantically. This is a relationship study, and you interpret it as you wish.

Reactions and Reviews

A really good Jaime & Brienne character study for up to end of S3.[1]

I don’t remember the last time I appreciated a shipping music video. This one is worth watching, it’s really well made.[2]

I thought I'd link to my very favorite J&B vid...Open Your Eyes by MoonCalledA.... I've seen it dozens of times over by now, and it still manages to make me shiver![3]

This vid is such a nice visual sum of the evolution in their early relationship[4]

OH MY GODDDDDDDDD.[5]

Brienne and Jaime’s Very Bloody Buddy Movie.[6]

holy shit this is legit the best fanvid i’ve ever seen for any pairing ever[7]

THIS IS THE BEST J/B VIDEO EVER.[8]

RIght in the feels. *Dies*[9]

I will just say this is truly the best Briennmie video there is! You didn't only used the same scenes everyone does with the same lines, you also linked both of their pasts (the glory moments and the disappointing moments) and I saw how throughout their relationship both helped the other to grow and move on! AMAZINGLY EDITED! I loved it![10]

i could watch this over and over. The music is beautiful and the editing is just perfect. There's nothing better than being able to hear the dialog without having to adjust the volume of the music. Fabulous job.[10]
