Day 3
In your own space, post recs for at least three fanworks that you did not create.
About Today by Nadiow613 [VID, Person of Interest, Reese&/Finch, spoilers all the way to 5x13,
major character death]
I simply HAVE to rec this vid. The National is one of my favourite bands. The lyrics suit this pairing/friendship perfectly and the vidder has nailed every line. They include all of my favourite moments along with some visual parallels I'd not noticed before. And if you're not tearing up by the end, you're a stronger person than me.
one way or another by Nialies [VID, Person of Interest, Root/Shaw, spoilers for
major character deaths]
This is such a haunting video. It gets me right in the gut every time. Root's determination to find Shaw in Season 4 is perfectly summed up, as is her place in the universe regarding the Machine. And then from 02:30 for about 20 seconds, it evolves into this long section of amazing audio work and snappy timing (and Shaw being a total badass). The beat rocks back and forth and it's just indescribably good.
nobody else will by TheHiddenMemory [VID, Person of Interest, John Reese, Joss Carter, the Numbers]
TheHiddenMemory has done a LOT of great vidding work, it's difficult to pick just one of theirs, but this...not only is it a great Reese character study, but it showcases some of my favourite numbers and explains the 'comic book hero' aspect of the show in a really moving, down-to-earth way.
Call Me Maybe by Talitha78 [VID, Person of Interest, Reese/Finch, Season 1 & 2 only]
Everyone clicks on this expecting it to be total crack - but it's a cover of the song you're not expecting, and it works SO WELL. The telephone motif is really well developed and I adore the medley of Reese fight scenes in the instrumental section. And it's exactly the kind of wink-wink-cheeky-smile slash vid that I need to mend my heart after watching a lot of angsty ones.
