I was so convinced I'd be able to resist the lure of Merlin. Oh, how wrong I was.
Of course, it's all
rageprufrock's fault, with her dastardly awesome epic Drastically Redefining Protocol. Which I love. With the fire of a thousand very hot suns. So, with her kind permission, I made a trailer.

Drastically Redefining Protocol Trailer
Length: 1:13
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Summary: Modern!AU. In which Prince Arthur meets Merlin and all hell promptly breaks loose.
Spoilers: Hmm, not really.
File size: 27 MB
With massive thanks to
rageprufrock for the love, and
lim for all the help. ♥

ETA - I did not get my act together to sign up for
14valentines this year, which is an epic fail on my part. So, technically this isn't part of that worthy endeavour, but it is in spirit. Go check out the community!
Of course, it's all

Date: 2009-02-04 01:55 pm (UTC)How do you do awesome stuff like that?!
It fits so well, and I really don't know if parts were edited or if it's really happening in some alternate universe and you were able to get a video feed...

Date: 2009-02-04 02:19 pm (UTC)It is a thing of beauty! Every frame is perfect. The music is such a good choice for the mood of the fic. The clip choices are brilliant - you take "less is more" to a whole new level. Then, there's technique, which (barring the possibility that you may have gone out to London and filmed this all yourself, which I doubt) makes my mind melt at the possibilities of vidding heights I can't possibly reach, like, ever. Usually when I see a well-made vid, I can at least guess at how stuff was done, and if I don't know, I'll keep thinking about it. With this, I have no idea how you did it, and I think I don't even want to know because it is SO GOOD that I don't want to destroy the illusion that this is somehow really real. *flails*
I hadn't read the fic before seeing this trailer. You betcha that I RAN over there and corrected that oversight about 1.5 seconds after the first time your trailer finished playing.

Date: 2009-02-05 03:59 pm (UTC)This is a work of SUCH STAGGERING GENIUS that it makes me want to spout words like "lighting!" and "synthesis!" and "juxtaposition!" like a newbie at an art gallery who basically doesn't know any other words, but is nonetheless overwhelmed by the glory of what she sees.
Gah.
You're joining the Merlin fandom, you say? I say, wonderful! We could always use more geniuses of staggering genius! You know, people who come up with astonishing new ways of sending innocent fangirls into joy-induced stupors. You're one of those geniuses. I can tell.
Now, thanks to your awesome vid, I'm off to re-read Drastically Redefining Protocol. AGAIN.

Date: 2009-02-13 05:55 pm (UTC)I love you for being a superb vidder, and capturing DRP perfectly. It's bliss.
I hate you for REMINDING ME DRP HAS FALLEN INTO DARKNESS. Oh the bittersweet fangirl angst.
Also, in case you're short one, have a vid bunny: Athur/Merlin to Katie Melua's "My Aphrodisiac Is You". There's so much potential for really funny crack there.
