I loved this. Beautiful telling of Sarah Jane's story (I especially like your choices for Old Who clips) and how great she was on SJA as well. I always always want more great SJA vids, and this definitely hits the spot. <3

[flummery]

Thank you! we had the most miserable time with some of the encoding on the Old Who stuff, so it limited us a little more than we wanted, (as did Sarah Jane's warddrobe in the Five Doctors), but we were happy with where things ended up!

There can never be enough Sarah Jane.

[thingswithwings]

as someone who's made a Sarah Jane vid using Old Who footage, I know exactly what you mean - especially about The Five Doctors! For me, Pyramids of Mars didn't want to be in the vid no matter what I did. I think your vid came out beautifully, though. :)

That was awesome. It made me cry for Sarah Jane again.

[flummery]

We had this song in mind for Sarah for almost two years, actually, and knew it was what we would be doing this year when we heard of Lis Sladen's death. She was amazingly wonderful and classy and still so very Sarah Jane after all those years.

Wonderful! I love the sense of history and growth that the vid has from the Old Who clips. Her joie de vivre is shown wonderfully, too.

[flummery]

Thank you! Our original thought was that this would be specifically an SJA-only vid, but the more we thought about it, the more we realized we needed to span everything -- I'm so glad it worked!

[cereta]

That was absolutely wonderful, and it made me cry. What an amazing tribute.

[flummery]

Aw, thank you! *beams* We've had the idea for a couple of years now, but once we heard about Elisabeth Sladen this spring, we knew it was time.

[flummery]

[alchemise]

Aw, this is a beautiful tribute! ♥

[flummery]

Thank you!

[serrico]

This is such a great celebration of Sarah Jane. Really lovely vid, full of her life and her story. *loves*

[flummery]

*beams* Thank you! We both just love Sarah Jane so much, and we're so happy that it came through in the vid. <3

I don't even watch Dr. Who and I just loved this.

[flummery]

Thank you! It's always nice to know if a vid will work for someone not in the fandom, as well as those who know it inside-out (and are easier to sell :)

[revolutionaryjo]

This vid is so beautiful and I appreciate how much of a celebration of Sarah Jane and Lis Sladen it really is. Perfect way to end a vidshow. :)

[flummery]

Thank you so much! We really wanted it to be a celebration of them both, and are so happy that it came across that way.

[fannishnonsense]

This is amazing. Just like Sarah Jane.

[flummery]

Aw, thank you!

[starlady]

That was great. I only wish the lyrics hadn't taken on that extra meta-resonance this year.

[flummery]

Thank you! And yeah, it was very bittersweet, first making this vid and then showing it this year.
