VID REC: Star Trek Reboot - Pieces

Vidder: DarlaPr0duction
Musical artist: Red

Why this vid kicks ass:

darlapr0duction is easily one of my favorite vidders in the Reboot!verse and it's easy to see why.  She's an incredible storyteller and I'm in awe of her editing skills.  With Pieces, she does an amazing job of incorporating dialogue, scenes, music, and even text to great effect.  And the end result is a gorgeous, gorgeous vid that tells a complete story.  I think perhaps what I love about this vid, outside of the amazing editing skills is how it's the exact story of Kirk and Spock meeting in the film with the same scenes and dialogues but it's through a completely different lens because all the parallels between them are highlighted.  Also if anyone is interested, another one of her K/S fanvids has been rec'd before on Crack Van, Forget.

*This vid was made for Senses, a story by mazaher and athens7.  Which is breathtakingly beautiful but is not required to be read to appreciate the fanvid but adds an extra depth to the meanings behind the scenes and the quote at the end if you do read it (also if you like Kirk/Spock and philosophical/lyrical writing that has significant amounts of poetry then you'll probably love the story).

Thank you very much for your words of appreciation! We didn't get a very widespread readership at the time, which means your mention is even more welcome. It's the best feeling in the world, having touched someone else with something meaningful.
Athens7 and I agree completely about darlapr0duction's vid: it captures perfectly the dynamics we wrote, and adds to it a deep, smooth beauty all of its own. And there is the *apple*...!

I'm happy to do so :) I loved your fic! And more people should check it out! It was a wonderful read and I remember thinking at how gorgeous (and intense) the writing was. The care you took with word choice and just the style/language is amazing to be honest. It was a little like falling back in love with K/S :) Both you and Athens7 are mad talented and I hope to read more of your writing.

Athens7 and I are currently, jointly writing about her own original characters, Jack Waszowski and Patrick Moriarty; you can find the whole saga so far at my website www.mazaher.org. Otherwise, I'm writing in the BBC-Sherlock fandom and she's mainly following Doctor Who-- at least until Star Trek XII comes around =)

Will definitely check them out :)
