*gasp* Steph! That was BEAUTIFUL!!!! *applause applause*

I LOVE that ghostly effect on Shannon! *hearts* That was just out-right gorgeous! *more applause*

Plus that was an awesome song choice! The look on Sayid's face at the start was just heart-breaking as he was trying to hold back tears... *sob*

*even MORE applause*

I loved it! I'm SO glad that you finished it! Yay!!!! Fantabulous job!

Thanks Ais! I'm glad I stuck with it. It was the hardest vid I've done so far, but I was pleased with it in the end. Thanks again for your support!

Thanks Paul!

I loved that final scene, it was so perfect. It was actually the easiest one to do compared to the rest.

Holy Cow!!! Steph, that was sooo

Just beautiful, not only the effects (which are stunning!), but also the whole atmosphere of the vid. It really gave me goose bumps.

You gotta give us a download link for that one.... pleeeaaase! *looking at you with those big, cute puppy eyes*

I know this probably means less to you than all the other four CM reviews (FOUR! I don't I've ever had that many! And I bet you're going to get four/five more

), but awesome job.

I liked the glowy effect (shininess is my weakness) and the vanishing effect (especially toward the end when she was approaching Sayid and then they are a mere inch away from the other and she disappears). I also really liked the grayscale/color scenes (i.e., half the clip was colored, the other half was not). It was a techinque that I'd never seen before, but it worked well!

Again, nice job.

awe! Thanks PC! That really means a lot to me! Just the fact that you watched it was enough but that you really liked it means so much more.

That was amazing! wow

I loved the effects, my favorite was close to the beginning when Sayid holds a dead Shannon in his harms. The colors were amazing. The last scene was spectacular and full of emotion.

Now... where is that download link?

Sorry the vid is 320x240 but if I make it any bigger the file size is just flippin enormous.

Wow, Steph, you're getting so amazingly good at this! I loved that glowing effect, I've seen it done before but never so well...the last scene especially looked completely real. (

That makes no sense, does it? It's a ghost...well, it looks like I think a ghost would if I saw one

)

Also loved all the rest of the vid.

Where'd you get that clip of the clouds from? Cos that looked so cool with Shannon's face in it.

Thanks gerbil!!

Those clouds are from FotoSearch Stock Footage. A lot of them have a free sample with a watermark and you can crop that out with vegas. Take a look, they have all kinds of stuff, not just clouds and oceans. They have TV screen borders, explosions, all kinds of crap. I'm gonna post this link in Vidding Help too.

Wow, that was truly heartbreaking and beautiful. LOVED that glowing effect on Shannon! ...every time I get comfortable with a vidding program, I see a vid that makes me want the next, cooler thing. Will I never be appeased?!

...and so going to download that when I'm back home and on my own computer.

This is by far one of the best fan vid that iÂ´ve ever seen. Is beautiful edit with all those effects and the final scene is spectacular and fantastic.

Shannon and Sayid are my favourite couple of Lost and i happy to see that there is people that still working on videos about them.

Very well done job. Congratulations.
