New Vid: ST:DS9 - Into the Fire


Artist/Song Title: Thirteen Senses - Into the Fire
Vidder: Xandra
Fandom: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Theme:
Character Study
Warnings:
Spoilers everything (but seriously it's been over for 10+ years)
Summary:
Sisko's journey into the fire.
Notes: I've been working on this vid for a long time. I was focused on the song for a long time and paired with the show and Sisko's journey really felt like the way to go. I wished the song was longer. I had to make a difficult cut of Sisko's first meeting with Picard, if only i had one more verse.

Format:
AVI, permanent download | youtube

Wow! This just wonderful! I love your song choice and your clip choice is perfect (and with seven years seasons of footage, it cannot have been easy).

And it such a perfect Sisko vid. I adore the character and the what you've put together just makes me love him and appreciate his journey even more.

I feel I have to watch this many times to understand it fully, but even after a first watch, I love it dearly.

Omg, SISKO. I'm so glad you decided to do the whole series. It's so powerful. Random thoughts:

- I love the way you cut the orb experience, very fluid.
- I teared up on "from the summer to the spring" -- Sisko hugging little Jake and tall Jake. Aww, family.
- Actually, all your lyric interpretations are wonderful. Everything with Benny, and the Cardassian fireworks/the mines exploding, just perfect.
- Whoa, he did the same hand motion when the Prophets take him at the beginning and end of the show? Amazing catch.
- The ending, with Jake -- chills.

Basically I really love this! <3

Ugh, that was frickin GOOD. I've been feeling nostalgic for DS9 and went searching for vids, found yours, and fell in love with the story you told of Sisko's spiritual journey. It's such a black sheep among Trek fandom, that spiritual side of DS9, but I love it and you've really captured it in all its haunting, terrible mystery.
