"Hope" 02-28-2007
A short AU vid I made when I needed some distraction from having to learn for my written exams. This is a Locke and Rose love story. Enjoy!
Song: The Book of Love by Peter Gabriel
Vidder: KajaM
Length: 2:15 (8.1MB WMV)

Not my best, but I had a lot of fun making this vid, sooo...

It was really tricky to do this one because of the problem with John being bald vs. John having hair ... that caused a few plot holes

Hope you enjoy it nonetheless!

As usual, the ZShare link has better quality than Youtube.

Whats the point of making a vid if it's not fun?!

Anyways, I loved it. The part where Locke found out his wife had died..

and the bits where Rose comforts Charlie were so sweet.

Old people love FTW!

OMG, that was so sweet

I loved the whole layout of your vid. The voiceovers, especially with Rose, were really well done. Speaking of Rose where has she been season 3!?

You made this just to distract you from an exam?!

Gosh, you probably crap better vids than what I can make. Anywho, I loved the vid and I would have never noticed the "hair" parts if you had not mentioned it. I was just focused on the vid

That was so touching!

Locke looking at the empty bed and realizing his wife is dead was so sad!

What a wonderful story to tell. Rose was so great in this helping both Locke and Charlie. My favorite part was Charlie asking Rose 'who's going to help me?' and then Charlie looking at Locke from a distance. snif. Then the last scene of Rose and Locke together looking at the ocean. So beautiful.

Amazing storytelling Karolina! I loved it!

Aw that was so sweet. My favourite moment was Locke losing his wife in the crash and Jack by his bedside and then the empty bed great stuff. Really emotional and great clip choice.

Karolina, that was so beautifully done! I LOVED how you didn't try to force some ooey-gooey romance story out of the footage (not that I don't love ooey-gooey romances, of course

) but instead you managed to pull together an entire drama! I loved how you included Charlie as Locke and Helen's son, thus tying in all of that angry Charlie footage so naturally, like it was all filmed to support your story!

Honestly, that was storytelling at its best, there! You could actually see it unfolding, with how Rose was trying to comfort both the grieving father and son *sniffle* and leaving it at the end with them by the ocean, where you could almost see the beginnings of this new romance taking root...

Wow. That was gooooooood!

Awww, thank you so much for all your wonderful comments, guys!

I didn't really expect to get so many comments on this vid because I thought that people wouldn't be interested much in a Locke & Rose (Rocke??

) sort of love story.

But old people love seems to rock(e)!

Elle, that's the best quote ever!

Thank you so much again, guys!! *lots of hugs*

Amazing wonderful beautiful!!!!! I LOVED it. I was so impressed with how well put together that was. It's so believable. You did a GREAT job. Awesome!!!! Locke is such a great character and he often gets looked over in the vidding (because he doesn't exactly make a good ship with a lot of people...)

A+++++++++++ and 100 gold stars!!!!

Thank you so much, SuperKC and FrecklesPhoenix!!

Locke's indeed a great character and I'm really glad that he's becoming more Season 1-like again. I really miss Rose though. Why haven't they shown her in Season 3 yet?
