Au trailer based on one of my older fanfics. Sawyer dies, and Kate finds it hard to let go, even when her feelings for Jack grow. I dont think I did an amazing job, but it was fun.

Aww, thank you. Halfway through, it started looking a bit like a music vid, so I wasn't sure if people woudl like it...I just had to post it anyway.
Btw, I was quite proud of those overlapping I love you's myself.  And yes, it's sad that Sawyer is dead...in my trailer. If that ever happened in the show, I might go into permanent mourning.

Great job!!! I'm a Jater, but that's a really good storyline!!! And I really liked the way you used the audio like that!!! And the overlapping of Jack and Sawyer saying "I Love You" was great!!!  |

Thanks Charmed_Charlie and buffyfan! I'm glad that both Jaters and Skaters can enjoy it. Cuz really it was either one in the trailer. I wanted it to leave it open for debate, the Skaters could think that she was leaning more towards Sawyer, and the Jaters could think she was leaning more towards Jack, either way works.

Sassy, great trailer! It kind of suprised me since you love Skate but I guess I understand, it was sad Sawyer died  You pulled that off pretty well and you had an awesome storyline. And the overlap of the I Love You's was genius! |

Aww, thank you! Yeah, I love Skate, but I do write abotu Jate and Sana in fanfic a lot, just for the fun of it. Plus, I think that it improves my writing skills to be able to do so convincingly.

Payback for beta-ing.
First: As a non-shipper, I wasn't annoyed by this, so good job appealing to the non-shipping audience as far as it. There was some nice editing with Sawyer being shot.
The lip synch (was it a lip synch?) with Jack and Kate on the beach was done well for Jack (though Kate's lips didn't move when you overlaid the sound, which is what clued me in that it probably was a lip synch.)
I'm in the minority on this, I know: The 'I love you' at the end was Sawyer mumbling something and Jack saying 'I love you,' which I know is not your fault (as has Sawyer ever said clearly 'I love you/her' or just mumbled/drawled it?), but it was a little blurry. Not your fault, but I toss that out there for your info.
Your pacing was solid, and for a Jate/Skate thing (aka, like I said, I'm not the target audience) I didn't get bored with it, so well done there. The titling was nice and sparse at the beginning; I liked the 'with him' repetition a lot.
The song switch felt a little strange to me. I'm not sure why; if it was going from the weepy stuff to the little strumming guitar. Maybe if you started the Fergie song on the 'don't cry, don't cry' part, it would have felt like less of a switch? Not sure, but I toss the suggestion out there.
So there's my thoughts!

Thanks, Kate! It helps a lot, and I honestly wasn't very happy with it (AKA- I didn't really like it at all, but since I already made it, might as well post it), but people seem to enjoy it. I was thinking about going back and re-doing it, but I'm not quite sure. If I do, I'll certainly take your ideas into consideration. Thx again!

Thank you. I've only made original trailers so far, and they're okay, but yours are awesome!
