Deadwood video - Bloody Mother

[charmax]

Video Title: Bloody Mother
Song Title/Artist: Bloody Mother (Alternative title) - Martha Wainwright
Show: Deadwood
Summary: This video follows Trixie's story through the first two seasons. Al, Sol, Alma and Doc have all been influential but at the end of the day Trixie relies on herself.
Length/Format: 3.14, (Xvid)
Notes: This is quite a simple video with no real bells and whistles because the editing reflects the song on that matter imho. It might also not be as accessible as some of my other videos are. It is character/arc driven and some knowledge of the show is probably needed to really understand it. Also, there is bad language in the song. If you know the show then that shouldn't be a problem for you at all.

Feedback loved.

Please do not upload to Youtube or MySpace Thanks!

I downloaded the first few episodes of season 1, but I haven't gotten around to watching them yet.

Though I had no clue the context of the clips, I could just tell that the song went along with the clips (and vice versa).

I really liked the lack of effects and the simplicity of it.

Very nice.

Took till the end of the vid for me to realize that I heard the song before in a Starbuck vid lol.

I was curious about the Starbuck vid and I finally found it on youtube. There was me thinking I had finally found a song nobody else had done or was likely to do. Oh well I may as well vid Arvin Sloane and Jack Bristow to "Bring me to life" lol

Thanks for the feedback Steph I am glad you got something out of it even without knowing the show.

Oh, you can never really know for sure that no one has used the song you're using (unless you just wrote it and recorded it yourself, all the while letting no one hear it until after you post a vid to it).

Don't let it get ya down or anything :P

The thing is, you didn't know. You didn't go and purposely copy them. And your vid was so much cooler.

I'm not beating myself up over it but it would have been nice to get there first.

Why must you joke about Jack/Sloane 'Bring me to life'? Because now I wanna see it... *face palm and hides face in deep shame*

I know, can't you just see it?! Seriously though I would love to do a Jack/Sloane vid one day just not to that song. But you could always give it a go. *grin*

To do it 'tongue-in-cheek' would be wonderful hehe. I'm not sure everyone would get it though :D
