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.

Just found this vid today and... am totally and utterly blown away. It's like you reached inside my head and made a vid of *my* Doctor. Or rather, all the meta-ness that I forever carry around with me whenever I think of him.

I wrote an essay last year after the S3 finale (What if God was one of us) and I see so much that I tried to say in that essay in this vid, but far more succinctly put and *so* much more hardhitting.

Because there is that wonderful duality to the Doctor: On the one hand he's just faking it - he's just a guy with flaws and weaknesses like everyone else, but he's built this whole persona/shield up around himself. And on the other he's this:

The Master: “What did it feel like though? Two mighty civilisations, burning. Tell me. How did that feel?”
The Doctor: “Stop it!”
The Master: “You must have been like God.”


Sorry, I am completely incoherent and have far too many thoughts. Mostly just 'Wow!'
