"Wake Up (Destiny vs Fate)" 07-18-2009
A combination of fate and destiny brought the Losties together, and brought them to where they are at the end of season five. There have been good times and bad... but will destiny allow them to change the past? Or will fate be unwilling to budge from the final outcome?

Oh my stars and garters, that is just EPIC!

I loved the way you told it in chapters, the way you handled the beat with that freeze frame effect (perfectly timed, too, and that had to take a lot of work!

), and how you combined all of the flashbacks of the mini!Losties with their present day selves in one huge, epic (yes, that word again

) character study of the entire show! I really adored how you used Jacob's loom with the overlays like that (he's sooooo doing the "fate" thing, after all

) and I also loved the border and whole look of the vid.

One more time, it was epic!

Brilliant work, so well thought out and flawlessly executed! I loved it!

That was really well done. I love how well you matched up the Child version of everyone with the Adult version. It was well thought out and looked like it took a long time. Respect.

WOW! Yes I agree with Ais! This was EPIC! Totally faving this one! I loved all the chapters! The first one was my favorite b/c of all the scenes with characters as kids! Gave me chills! Especially the scene when young Juliet is running away and then adult Juliet is running away from Sawyer! Awesome comparison! Oh and then the good times chapter was so fun and sweet! I loved the freeze frames too! Very effective. Okay I'm off to fav!!

that was very awesome Julia

very clever idea to pair the losties as kids with how they grew up and what they became. and separating it into chapters was also very cool and i loved the flip from bad times to good times; ending it on a happy note was a very nice touch

awesome ensemble vid!

oh and thank you for crediting my site at the end there

Wow! Ok Julia...I know that sometimes this word is grossly overused but this vid was seriously EPIC! It was just amazing from the sheer length to the inclusion of so many characters and events from the show. So wonderfully put together beautiful coloring, spot on beat use, just all around great!! Gold of course!!
