Great job! That was a great idea and you pulled it off well. Good jobs on the manips! Nicely done!

Really creative and well-done! The manips were great

One suggestion is just be careful when you crop clips-sometimes there was a big black spot on one side or the other where you'd cropped the clip too small. But other than that, this was really good

Yeah normally it shows me in Vegas when that happens but for some reason it didn't this time so I couldn't see the problem before rendering. (and after taking 2 hours I refused to re-render).

Wow, Becca! That was so emotional! I loooved your manips, especially Shannon watching Des at the start and end of the vid. Des with the gun was so angsty! Poor Des! Fabulous job!

Oh, that was very cool! Great manips and storyline and I love that song, it's so angsty and perfect for the story! I enjoyed it a lot!

Aw, this was so sweet and utterly wonderfully done, I loved this couple and enjoyed watching their story together

Your clip choices and coloring were perfect and very meaningful. I loved the part of them on the phone together, great clip use and audio use there!

Wonderful video, good luck in the contest!

oooh; that was great!!! i really loved the nightmare that Des kept having of Shannon dying/screaming. and the audio manips were so sad "you're just gonna leave me / what makes you think I'd just run away?"

Charlie's speech really worked so well for Des thinking of Shannon, too

and the end was so bittersweet; they both died but got to be together in the after life

well done Bec!

Thanks for all the nice comments

I wasn't sure how easy the plot would be to follow or if other people wouldn't get it but your replies have made me feel really happy with how it turned out
