The Sick Rose (a poem by William Blake)

(a poem by William Blake)

'O Rose thou art sick.
The invisible worm,
That flies in the night
In the howling storm:
Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy:
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy.'

-----------------------------------

My homework assignment in my English Literature class this week was to respond creatively to this poem and this is what I came up with. Although I've never done anything like this before, I hope you all still enjoy the video nonetheless.

@arrieissocoollike The track is called 'Winter is Coming' from the Game of Thrones score, composed by Ramin Djawadi.

Trying to work out how the video fits in with a poem about catching an STD...

[brionyx509]

@e1maestro Forgive me for not wanting to make a video that is literally just about syphilis.

Again, I must say, this is so beautifull. May I ask from wich fandom the scene from 0:46 till 1:15 it? (the one with the woman)?

[brionyx509]

@xSunshineRain Thank you! The shots of the woman are from Perfume: the Story of a Murderer.

[Pelmeshka777]

This is too beautiful to watch at. Magnificent video, beautiful poem. Pure creativity. Definitely one of the most beautiful vids I've ever seen. I like non-fandom creativity videos. This looks so simple, but so fascinating at the same time. Love it. Awesome job!

[mockingjayism]

[RaphaelTudors]

I love it. I absolutely love it.

[meeshell384]

No one does artistic beauty like you. Literally no one.

[soupshop]

SO PROUD OF YOU.

[eveninrose]

this looks like an awesome teaser trailer for an epic show full of intrigue. ;D

[LilyRoseSparrow]

This is just absolutely amazing. <3

Its so creative and I love the atmosphere and the emotions you created!

And your editing of the different scenes is just breathtaking! Going from dark and mysterious to something sexy but not quite right.

If you dont get an A++ on this, i will find your teacher and tell him that he has no idea what true talent is. ;)

[kaylawollin]

gave me goosebumps, good work, Briony! :)

[eveninrose]

this is amazing; extremely atmospheric!

[HANDFRIER]

This is a masterpiece. You'll think I'm only saying this, but seriously: you are incredibly talented.

[Sparralex]

Briony, there are no words for how incredible this is. I'm amazed. It is so unique and GORGEOUSLY done. It's... professional. You have gone past the world of vidding and entered an entirely new realm. You should be so, so proud of this. No doubt in my mind that you'll get an A+.

[xSunshineRain]

This is pure ART.

[intelectr]

Impressive! Bravo!

[ddreamcatcher2]

And this is why I that one time told you that: girl, this is your future.

You just turned this poem into pure art. The music. The clips. The text and effects. Just the overall editing and idek. Stunning. Captivating. Beautiful. Eerie. (i'm just puking words here, forgive me) If you don't get and A+ and a bouqet of flowers I will personally haunt your teacher in their sleep.

[sayuri15]
