This is very cool! I loved how you centered the whole vid around Ben and Locke's conversation from the finale. Great Audio. Your title sequence in the beginning is also very cool. |

That was fantastic, Sophie! I love the way you used Locke's speech as a framework and then edited in the examples in between. That was famazing! Well done, my friend! |

DJC Productions: thank you!! orginally i was gonna do some good quotes ben had come out with as ben sat on the beach. but in the end that whole convo with john/flocke was perfect. glad you liked it
secret_neo: thank you, i really like your trailers so its nice to hear your feedback with mine my intro sequence is made with adobe after effects. but i didn't make it, i used a template from revostock.com but changed it so it says "sophie presents" lol

Aww, poor Ben. I think you used all the best scenes for this promo. It makes me even more excited to find out what's gonna happen to him in S6! Good luck in the contest |

Sophie, as always first off: Astonishing quality and soo great editing. Everything technical is flawless! I LOVED the scenes you picked and the smokey montage. It really made me bawl!
My only crit is that there was barely something that showed us what will happen to ben in season 6. Other than that just wow. WOW. but that's what your videos always do. they make WOW out loud! Gold! _________________ |

Great job Sophie!! I didn't want to watch your promo until I made mine so I wouln't get any subliminal ideas (lol), but I'm pleased to see how different they are from each other. I love the approach you took with the conversation Flocke had with him and the music was really cool! Well done and a well deserved gold from me!!
That said, it's difficult to make too much of a creative possible ending without going over the line and being completely AU and out there for Ben because it seems he's in the present-post bomb! |

thanks guys, and yeah i agree with you i didn't really follow the idea of pu thing of the contest because to be honest i found it hard. I know some spoilers about ben for next season, so i didn't want to give away what may happen, and really for my idea of my vid it would of looked odd. But anyways the last few moments in my vid i thought i hinted enough that something bad was to happen now, for ben killing jacob. with the quotes "a war is coming" "2 sides, one is light one is dark" etc, and becuase of bens action this is what may happen in s6.
also i watched a lot of the lost promos (from s2 onwards) before i started on mine, and most of them only show stuff that has been aired or show a tiny glimpse with out giving too much away. that was the kind of thing i decided to go for like a promo how abc do, but better lol. _________________

Oh good! I'm glad you didn't include spoilers, because I dislike them so much! I avoid them as much as possible! Exactly, I mean, it's so hard to predict what such an unpredictable character like Ben would do anyway! I have a bunch of possible endings, and what has gotten me is that if the plane doesn't crash on the island, how in the world can Flocke take Locke's body? Ya know? I could go around in circles for hours trying to explain that, and Ben is at the heart of all the mystery and island mystique! haha!
Good luck in the contest hun! _________________ New account/other vids (my other account is on it's last leg with copyright notices)::

I really liked how you captured Ben. I too like how you used Locke's speech and how showed everything Locke was talking about, and 'two sides' and we see Jacob/Other guy. The music you chose was great.
Your song sometimes overpowered the audio. (That happens to me all the time.) |

Okay, wow. Just wow.
Alright, firstly I'd like to ask... was this music in the X-men Origins: Wolverine trailers? I feel like it was... and it was awesome. Ever so epic and perfectly selected. Trailers are just so... EPIC. And this was no exception. You crafted a fine trailer for Ben that really hit all the big character moments for him, even if you didn't show them all. Really great dialogue selection, I loved the way you spliced the conversation with bad/dark Locke in there and showed the things he described. I assume that shot toward the end of him with the smoke around him crying his supposed to be him in the next season, realizing what he's done (what evil Locke made him do) and feeling bad about it. Is that right? I guess it doesn't really matter. It was a great preview for next season and that's that. Definitely gold. _________________ Avi by Debbie Banner by CDS1...
