Ah, the picture screwed up. But as you may already have guessed, it's FATE and not FALE
And, I apologize if someone has already been using the audio of Sawyer asking Kate if she really loves him to the clips when Pickett beats him up... See, I've been gone from LVI for some time and I haven't watched all of your videos.

I loved it!

First off, GREAT work on the beat use. My favorite parts were when you used the still pics instead of the video (those worked SO well).

Second, I love how the whole thing was in black and white until the very end! Nice work with that.

Finally, the loved the whole idea of this vid. It wasn't exactly "sappy" and it wasn't "destructive" like a lot of Skate vids are. In was somewhere in the middle, trying to tell that they are both people that have made terrible mistakes in their lives, but if they go at it together, they can become better people for themselves and for each other.

I will upset if this doesn't get at least a silver pick because I think it deserves one!

WOW I loved IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this song i think it works for skate so much!!! I love the whole black and white in the video
The beats use was good aswell
I could go on for a long time saying about how much i liked about this video but i think it just roxs my soxs definatly gonna be downloading the video.

I agree with PC if it doens't get a CP i will be wondering why

Just wow i loved this video so much will also be adding it to my faves on youtube

I don't think I can get more happy than I am right now! Thanks you guys so much! I really like when you say what you liked about it, it defenetly (sorry if I spelled that wrong ) helps me becoming a better vidder!

PC, the way you described the video, that was kinda exactly my point. Like, they're soulmates, like a puzzle finally put together after being separated for a long time. Somehow, I'm not very good in writing those lines of video-describination (is that the word? I seem to have lost all of my english skills, I'm so overwhelmed!)

I loved the way you used the still pics! And the beat use was wonderful! Plus, of course, it was just an awesome Skate vid!

*squeeeeee!*

The change to color at the end was also really, really fitting and made for a great ending! *applause*

I really enjoyed it a lot!

I don't watch many Skate vids, but this one really caught my eye, and to be honest, it has to be one of my favourite Skate vids EVER! I loved what you did with all the still pics (myself being a great fan of the use of still pics, heehee!), especially with the effect you put on them.

I also think that the black and white throughout worked really well, even though I'm not a massive fan of completely black and white vids. To second what Aislynn said, I loved when it turned to colour at the end, it was a great way of ending it.

I really liked the fact that you managed to find the balance between story-telling and beat use - it's a very hard thing to do. When you told the story, it was great, and when you used the beats, it was great! You didn't 'over-use' the beats so that you lost the story, but you also made sure that you did the beats justice.

Overall, an excellent vid. Good luck with judging, and I'll be eagerly awaiting your next vid.

Wow, guys... thank you so much!
I never expected this, so it's really overwhelming to hear that the still pics worked, and that it's probably one of AP's fave Skate vids! I mean like... it can't get any better than that! (Okay, maybe the all-time-fave but that's a long way to go )

I'm so, sooo glad you guys liked it! This inspires me to do more vids

*thinking about my next vid*

Btw, I'll probably get Vegas... I've only done four vids so far and I've already gotten tired of WMM
