The Incident opening scene. Possibly the most epic scene in all of Lost, thus far.

I loved the literal translation of their conversation. This was a deeply epic scene

Well-done: The texture was subtle and didn't distract, and the oversaturation worked well. I liked especially the title with 'progress'--good placement and eye there. Often, changing fonts doesn't work, but I felt that was used pretty well here.

DJC Productions: Thanks so much!

blackwolf: Thanks! I think it is like the definition of epic.

littleton_pace: Haha, no problem!! I usually go by MPJ but I can't change my yt so yeah... Thank you so much for commenting. I loved making vids for you competition, it really got me into Lost vidding again.

thefilmchick: Thank you! I really appreciate the comments. I'm not really good with words and fonts, so thanks for mentioning it. Now I don't feel as nervous about using them.

Wow, that was great! I like how you showed Jacob with the Losties, and the words on there looked cool.

Quite welcome, MPJ. I think why it worked with yours was that some of the fonts (don't have the video up now (thanks, dialup), but I remember 'kill' or words to that effect specifically) felt like they were chosen pointedly for their effect--'kill' or whatever was in a rough script format, which looked appropriately violent, and it was blood-red. So it added to the words, whereas just choosing random fonts would have detracted (imagine if you had a girly-girl curlicue font with 'kill.')

*points to The Font Thread in Artistic Help, hahaha*

Urivel: Thank so much!

theflilmchick: Haha, yeah the font thread is amazing. Some people are so good at choosing the fonts without detracting from the video. I'm laughing at the idea of a girly kill.
