Oh wow, that was so good! I think you did a great job of showing all Isaac is or could be, and dang if I wasn't reminded how much I do love him well! I'm also in total awe of your transitions - some of those were the best I've seen in a long time. Kick-ass vid!

Thank you! *hugz* I meshed a lot of the past and present and threw in the transitions of how his paintings come to life. I'm totally like you, just doing this showed me how much I love him! Honestly, half the time, I felt as if I'd just pulled scenes from thin air. I feel as if things that happened to Isaac often get drowned out by other storylines, and to piece them all together we start to uncover the heart of the character. Honestly, throw Santiago a bone and he'll try his best to make it look meaningful. I'm glad there's something out there for Isaac drooling now! :D

And after all that ramble, just wanna thank u again :$

This vid was awesome! So good, loved the mention of "opening the eyes" as Isaac opened his to paint, and it's so cool to watch Simone coming in to get the pictures for Lindermann, especially since we know he knows all about them!:) Even saw some I didn't remember seeing before. Loved the song, it fits him! So tragic and yet there's that flicker of wanting to make a difference, excellent!

Thanks! *glee* Yeah that was the one scene that was most prominent in my mind. It was the key phrase I was looking for when searching for a song also LOL Oh and u picked up an underlying Linderman thing there did u? ;) I was only trying to convey how his paintings mirrored real life, but again Simone got caught up in a lot of that. Was very cool. And, another underlying reference, you can see how much he's trying to convince everyone that what he's painting is true - he wants to inspire that confidence to have someone to trust and believe in him, and how it just backfires over and over. Poor boy *huggles him*

Oh, this is a fantastic video. Congrats, and great job! Sighhh, Isaac.

Thanks hon *hugz* hehe

Oh wow another superb video from you. I thought you captured Isaac very well in it....

Fiona

Thanks hon! :D I'm glad it worked into a nice little summary. I appreciate u commenting.

OMG Jules!! You seriously have to consider getting into making trailers for tv shows/movies, or promos and stuff.... you are scarily talented at this for an amateur, seriously

I'd never heard that track before, either, so you are educating me too LOL...

The whole tone was spacy, matching the "getting high" scenes and melancholy, yet building up to something. Again I like the literal stuff like the tie ins with not believeing his lies, for Simone, and falling down etc...but it was pretty deep, when you were saying he is not the only one, was that meant as a jealousy thing about Peter, and the role he has in Simones life, or is it hopeful about there being other Heroes , that he is painting about? What was your take...

It was so sad and moody, though wasn't it, he really is coming off like a tragic character, did you purposefully mean that, or is it how you are feeling about him now?

You really make him and Heroes look like the coolest must see movie to see though I was amazed LOL. Hands down the best Isaac vid I've seen so far, especially as a central character...

:( If NBC wants me for Heroes they can have me! hehe

Seriously, I've LOVED doing this all my life, even when I was doing my music business course my teachers and the professional vid guy who came to see my class were astounded by my attentive enthusiasm for it. I wish I could do it for work or something. And having done it so often now I totally empathise with the length of time these guys need to string something together. All the magic happens in the editing room!

Good to know I'm getting more songs out there! :D If anything, that's my mission LOL I love promoting stuff.

You know you've described it as exactly what I was looking for. That was my struggle with finding a track for Isaac - I needed something haunting and etheral to capture those soft looks, the uncertainty of the unknown, something that explained to you that he lived in a world outside the real one (cause that's what artists do ;) hehe), but at the same time I also needed something that was aggresive, that showed the hard grit of life, the danger he was putting himself in, and then ultimately (this is the part that had me all freaking and undecided) the violence that came about from the darker aspects of his life. Then, also, I needed something that lyrically matched. And I'm glad that this song had some semblance of meaning to his character. You're right, I always go for the literal, and I'm glad that's noticable ;) But yeah, I always do try to tell a story with it.

"You're not the Only One" initially I was using that to show him and the Heroes he painted, how they're reflected in real life. The meaning, as far as that, was interpreted as he wasn't the only one who had powers, he knew this, and he's not the only one trying to save the world, he knows this too. Yet, unfortunately, he's not doing too well in the group situation of trying to band everyone together to make something happen. He wants redemption so much he's taken the complete weight onto his shoulders and feels he must do something, he must prove his worth, but because he can't do it alone he turns to the one person who he believes he can trust and who he knows has some degree of power/influence - HRG. However, you're also right, that it does manifest also in a jealousy towards Peter thing (you know I never noticed how angrily he was cleaning those brushes til I cut that raining window scene LOL). Isaac sees Peter as a perfect replacement, a better version of him, what he should be. Peter can do everything he can do - without drugs. Power-wise he can replicate his powers, and personally he can be everything to Simone that Isaac was not. So, in a sense, Isaac is let down by himself and to keep from heaping the self-blame onto himself he starts blaming Peter for everything that's happening. It's his fault Simone left him. It's his fault Simone got killed. U get the drift ;)

Isaac is a tragic character with all the struggles he goes through *nods* And so full of angst. This is what I want the Heroes writers to embrace, they've planted all those seeds, they just need to do something with it. The melancholy really came with the song, though I did put some cheerful moments in. Unfortunately not enough time for everything.

Aww thank you! *hugz* I hope that it'll kick some interest into people out there. And I so feel like I'm doing a series of extensively long character vids now LOL Got Isaac, Mohinder, Niki/Jessica, the Petrelli brothers, Claire and Zach... (*whispers* and more to come)

Absolutely fabulatastic (yup, that's a word :P). Once again you managed to capture a character perfectly in under 5 minutes, the song fitting the scenes we see amazingly well. I have never even tried my hands on vidding but seeing your vids always makes me think I shouldn't even try >.< Looks way too complicated, besides you make all the great vids out there so no need for me to even start lol

Little commentary while waching again:

"We're all grieving, lost and bleeding" Best. choice. of. scenes. EVER.

(although the one straight after it about calling and not believing is nearly as awesome).

"So afraid to open your eyes" and then he opens his white eyes, just wow.

And you even managed to include Candice! Totally amazing.

"Don't look down on the world beneath me--don't fall" <---- Awesomeness (not necessary the lyrics, but the way it goes along with your scene choice).


(random: your vid made me realise that a question I wrote down yesterday -about the dart gun- is in fact true).

I'm glad u pointed out that was a word, cause I didn't read it as that word when I first read it :P hehe (funny how my brain straightens things out).

Anyways, thank u! :D As I said to Sam, I feel like I'm just rolling out the character vids now so NBC will hire me for promos which is all very cool, and by the time the 2nd season comes around I'll probably have plenty under my belt. Mind u I may need to clean my computer out if I keep going at this pace...

I'm glad I'm all inspiring! :D You probably imagine it like I do your PSing/iconing skills. I can't even imagine spending so long on a picture, yet I'll spend 12 hours-2 weeks+ on a vid LOL Crazy. It's fun though :D

Oh are u talking about the first one? Cause ZOMG how rockin' was it when I found "lost Hiro" following a trail of blood leading to Isaac. Worked beautifully with the slow pace of the music. I didn't even remember that shot!

Yeah *claps* if I can be so selfish as to like my own handiwork LOL I'll agree with u. And Candice came in as an afterthought. How lucky I got held up making the vid! LOL

*grin* Yeah I totally imagined that scene for that lyric before I found the scene. Then I was a bit miffed it didn't run as fast or interchanging as I remembered, but oh well LOL it still works.

Ooh *intrigued* did u post to Heroes questions with it? :P And what was it? :$
