new vid! Doctor Who, Handlebars

Our Vividcon Premieres vid is up now:

Vid title: Handlebars
Song artist: Flobots
Fandom: Doctor Who (2005)
Vidders: Seah and Margie (Flummery)
Vidder website: http://flummery.org
Summary: I'm the Doctor. Look me up.

Notes: Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] merryish for the all the help, and especially all the baking, without which this vid probably never would have been finished in time. (she made us say that -- but it's true anyway.)

Right-click to download: http://flummery.org/handlebars/handlebars_dw_flummery.avi

There's a streaming version up on our imeem (http://flummery.imeem.com), but it's a little stuttery in spots and we're not sure why. Hopefully we'll get it figured out and fixed soon.

Imeem went boom, so we put a streaming version up on our site, which you can watch there or here:

ETA April 17, 2012: Our streaming vids are temporarily offline while we look into a technical issue. Sorry! The download still works, and we'll get the streaming version back up as soon as we can.

This is absolutely superb, the living embodiment of "sometimes I think you need someone to stop you".

The chilling progression from exercising power for fun; to being judgmental with Harriet for doing what he does all the time; to destroyer of worlds (all for their own good, of course) is beautifully laid out and cut with tremendous wit and panache. And you never forget that his saving grace is that he loves too.

And as for the way you used the throwaway moment from Forest of the Dead as a crowning clip - it gave me chills.

I love dark Doctor, when its acknowledged in the show as ambiguous and not all "the Lonely god knows best" and this video made me very happy. And a little afraid ;)

Wow, thank you so much for this. When we first heard the song, the progression in it made us go straight to the Doctor, and it's seriously cool to see people's reactions to that, and that it works as well as it does for us. Yay!
