Vid: Starman (Prometheus)

Starman

music: David Bowie, "Starman"
stream: on Vimeo
download: 34mb mp4 @ mediafire | subtitle .srt
AO3 page

Thanks to [personal profile] kuwdora, [personal profile] epershand, and [personal profile] thingswithwings for seeing the movie with me, providing help with the source, beta-watching, tolerating me blathering in chat, and then finally pointing me at tutorials so I could make AfterEffects do things. ♥

This is a cam rip vid; a remaster will probably happen (eventually) once I can acquire BluRay source footage.


summary: Ziggy Stardust died for your sins.

lyrics: I had to phone someone so I picked on you
Hey, that's far out, so you heard him too!
Switch on the TV
we may pick him up on channel two
Look out your window I can see his light

If we can sparkle he may land tonight
Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright

There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

Starman, waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

THAT WAS SO CREEPY I CANNOT EVEN.

Early in the vid it seems like some of the scenes are of a different age re video quality - as though you'd mixed up grainy, bad colour technology 60s footage with later footage. It was really effective and fabulous. Is this AfterEffects or the camera rip quality? If it's the camera rip, please don't delete this version when you remaster. It's fantastic.

AH HAH HAH I love that you made this vid! It is awesome. PERFECT song choice. And reminds me of how much I never want to see Prometheus again (sorry).
