I need to start watching this series and your vid proves that to me. I thought the coloring and set up of the vid were great; the voice overs were used so affectingly here. Great vid. I need to watch this show.

Thank you so much, Brooke!
I'd totally recommend watching DA. Anna and John are just one of the wonderful things about this show. There are so many great characters and storylines. I was totally hooked from the moment I started watching.

OH, KAROLINA! That was lovely beyond lovely!!! I truly couldn't imagine a better tribute to this epic couple. You illustrated their story so perfectly and the dialog was so perfect and effective. The music was so fitting, too! Love, love, LOVE!!!

Remember how I originally wanted to name this vid "Epic Love"?

SQUEEEEEeeee!!! My gosh Karolina, that was EPIC!

It gave chills at the part where he got charged as guilty.

Your use of audio was absolutely perfect! You really told their story, and did it with such love and sweetness. Stunning vid, I loved every second!

Aww, thank you, Emma!!!

Anna & Bates are my new favourite everything, so I really appreciate your comment! It was a bit difficult to break their relationship down to the essentials and make it easy to understand even for those who don't watch the show (because it's far more complex than what is shown in the vid), but I hope I did ok.

That was very sweet! I loved how well the clips matched the music. I loved how you did the music change around 1:32, with more intense scenes to match the music. I can definitely see why you ship them. Wonderful vid!

Aww, thank you, Macaila! Yes, I ship them so much and I'm glad to hear that it was obvious in the vid why I do.
Thankm you for your comment!

Aww, thank you so much, Jemma! That means a lot to me *hugs* It's sometimes really hard to re-tell a story, especially when it's as eventful and dramatic as Anna's and John's. So I really appreciate you saying that you felt like being a part of it!
