I don't have a good title for this. Sucks.  
Another fanvideo, this is the second. :)



Title: Harry/Sirius - In The Arms Of An Angel.
Creator: Katie Louise Garner.
Fandom: Harry Potter.
Pairing: Harry/Sirius, but it doesn't have to be slash if you don't want it to be, it works both ways.
Music: Arms Of An Angel - Sarah McLaughlin.
Warnings: Spoilers if you haven't seen HP5 and slash if you squint.
Summary: Again there is no plot in this one just angsty!Harry thinking back on the memory of Sirius to some really sad and delicate music by Sarah McLaughlin. It follows the typical pattern with the sepia video portraying Harry's memories and the colour video being the present. I think it works quite well, but you'll have to let me know what you think. :)
Disclaimer: Song belongs to Sarah McLaughlin, clips to WB, characters & storyline to JKR.
Other: I don't know whether I intended this to necessarily be slash or just the memory of Sirius to Harry as a friend and godfather. Nevertheless it can be perceived as slash, for example I purposely didn't show the picture of the OOTP in the train station so that what Sirius gives Harry can be left to the imagination of the individual. I do appreciate feedback so I'd love some comments and stuff. Constructive criticism is good! If you use this or anything please just give the appropriate credit to myself [info]kayteelou. Cheers!

Well I'll be doing more, I forget how strangely relieving making fanvideos is. When you finish you feel somewhat accomplished :)


 
 
I'm currently: weee.
Feeling: rejuvenated
Listening to: For All We Know - The Carpenters

Aw, that was kind of sad, but in a good way! *sniffs* Poor Sirius - I never did forgive JKR for that....
Great video though - I love that song - I hadn't heard in in so long.

JKR is such a talented and brilliant women but killing Sirius? That was so very unnecessary!

Not to mention the majority of the other character deaths!
Even poor Hedwig!? WTF WOMAN. lol
Nikki: GaryOldman[info]snapini on August 26th, 2008 10:59 pm (UTC)
I know - completely unnecessary!Evil, EVIL woman, lol!
I wasn't affected much by the deaths in DH. Probably because there were so many to keep up with! :D
KayteeLou: [Bram Stoker's Dracula] Vlad & Mina (Y)[info]kayteelou on August 26th, 2008 11:04 pm (UTC)
Yeah, I do suppose that Sirius was a one off so it hit you harder. And I so wasn't expecting it! I hadn't read this book since when it came out and I'd completely forgotten that Sirius died. Plus, I don't think I particularly minded as much when I read the book all those years ago because I never realised how gorgeous Gary was until OoTP (I know, kick me and beat me I deserve it!) so I was sat there next to my friend going OMFG HE'S GORGEOUS and also squeeing over Jason Isaacs during the fight scene when all of a sudden she nudged me, I looked up and he was all dead. :|
And I cried lol.
Nikki[info]snapini on August 27th, 2008 03:45 pm (UTC)
*gasp* It took you till OoTP to realise how gorgeous Gary is??! LOL! Yeah it was quite distracting having both Gary AND Jason Isaacs in the same scene...I mean, who were we supposed to watch?!!
KayteeLou: [Bram Stoker's Dracula] Vlad & Mina (Y)[info]kayteelou on August 27th, 2008 04:49 pm (UTC)
*nods* *bows head*
I mean, I'd seen Dracula and thought he was good looking but I've been so distracted by Johnny Depp for the last five or so years that I didn't really find any other celebrities hot :P But then I watched OoTP and I was just like 'buggger me, he's hot' and well, it went from there :)) Now the list is endless hhaa.
(of course Johnny's still my baby though :P)

And yes, I nearly die whenever that scene comes on. How i would love to be in the middle of that :D

delorita: new Harry Sirri[info]delorita on August 27th, 2008 07:22 pm (UTC)
*waving shyly* It took me TOO until OOTP to discover the brilliant actor that is Gary Oldman!! I never heard of him before that.

Nicccceeee vid! And I DO see the slash because I want to. I loved their relationship and so I feel in love with both of them. And for me, Sirius sure isn't dead.
KayteeLou: [Bram Stoker's Dracula] Vlad & Mina (Y)[info]kayteelou on August 27th, 2008 10:27 pm (UTC)
:O well, tell me you caught up on his wonderfulness since then :P

I'm gutted he died :(((
and i hated at the end luna going 'sometimes things we loose have a way of coming back to us.' I was in so much denial and that made me think BLATES NOT DEAD.
So as soon as Deathly Hallows came out I skim read for Sirius' name, but all we got was a blooming ghostly apparition :(.
delorita: Siri James bw[info]delorita on August 29th, 2008 03:33 pm (UTC)
Yes I've caught up with the wonderfullness of Gary since then! I've made a ton of walls:

http://s239.photobucket.com/albums/ff140/DeloritaC/?start=all hope you can see all they pretties!!! If so, you can see I'm a slasher at heart ;)

I've written some Harry/sirius stuff PLUS I've started a Jackie/Teri story, which is only friendship yet. I LOVE Jackie Flannery and also Dracula!!
KayteeLou: [Bram Stoker's Dracula] Vlad & Mina (Y)[info]kayteelou on August 29th, 2008 03:42 pm (UTC)
OoOH pretty walls! I could just eat him up, he's so amazingly gorgeous all the time!

Ooh, I love me a bit of Harry/Sirius! I wrote a fic between them once but I didn't like it so I stopped, I'd like to write another though. I love the way that they interact, both on screen and in the books, they're so easy and fun to play with :) My HP OTP is Sirius/Remus ;D It's obvious that they are lovers, I mean it's practically canon.

Tbph I love a bit of Sirius/anyone though, fanfic writers have made him into a total man slag so it's so easily to find new pairings that are totally hot. I love reading Sirius/Lucius but I don't think I'd enjoy writing it as much because I'd be too tempted to slip them out of character. o__0

I think you did a really good job, actually. It made me tear up a bit. And I sort of lean toward him missing him, as a Godfather. But that's just my take.
KayteeLou: [Bram Stoker's Dracula] Vlad & Mina (Y)[info]kayteelou on August 26th, 2008 11:06 pm (UTC)
Thankyou :)
And yeah, that's cool. I mean, that's why I did it really because obviously not everyone agrees with Harry/Sirius or certain pairings and they have such a lovely canon relationship too so I can be perceived in different ways.

I admit though the HP fandom is a bit out of hand. :|
I mean I religiously support Lupin/Sirius and I like me a bit of Harry/Sirius too now and again but some of the pairings are just ridiculous lol.
forest_rose[info]forest_rose on August 26th, 2008 11:04 pm (UTC)
That was lovely - I'm not into Harry/Sirius at all, but I liked it as Harry remembering his godfather. Beautiful song, too.
KayteeLou: [Bram Stoker's Dracula] Vlad & Mina (Y)[info]kayteelou on August 26th, 2008 11:08 pm (UTC)
Thankyou, and yes they have a lovely canon relationship as godfather and godson so it works both ways i guess. :)
brighty18: Black[info]brighty18 on August 26th, 2008 11:08 pm (UTC)
That was lovely and moving!!! I'm not a huge fan of Harry/Sirius, but I so think that their relationship was special in a godfatherly sort-of way and this really captured it well. Beautiful!

And that's from a "serious" Sirius fan!

That was very well done and so enjoyable and sad. I'm usually no fan of Harry or Sirius as characters, but your presentation made me feel a lot of sympathy for both of them. I think you really highlighted their isolation and ongoing grief, both mutually and separately (I read this as a godfather and/or missing parents vid, not as slash). It was moving. Thank you very much.

Oh, hon, this is just ridiculously well-done! Awesome, well-done editing, beautiful storyline with a clear message...just perfectly done! You managed to capture so many aspects of their relationship. This is just a fabulous video.

Oh, I really enjoyed that, romantic or no. This was very well put together. Poignant. :'(

That was really nice. Very touching.

*dies* That was fantastic! It can definitely be interpretted either way and they're both fantastic possibilities. Definitely one of my favorite fanvids.

Thankyou, I'm very flattered :) x
