Fan Comments
This was the rare thing: a vid that lost my interest and then was able to get it back. I find the song dull; it says the same thing a bunch of times and isn't musically interesting to me either. After about three lines I figured that the vid wasn't going to do anything more interesting than the song was: Duncan and Fitz are friends, yeah yeah I got it already, let's move on! And I was wrong. By the middle of the next verse or so I was caught up again. Melina caught humor and wryness and, well, friendship that was only suggested by the song and highlighted it; she showed me more through her editing than the song could alone, or than the episodes (I've seen Fitz but didn't much care for him) did. And isn't that what vids are all about? The vid review panel on Sunday talked about the way that audiences (do or don't) put their trust in the vidder, and how the vidder can keep, lose, or gain it; on the basis of the first few seconds of this vid I didn't trust Melina, and I was wrong. I liked this vid. [1]
