How Six Songs Collide - Jean Grey

A video featuring the life, death, and legacy of Jean Grey, through the eyes of those who know her best - her teammates in the X-Men. Set very loosely in comics continuity, after Jean's death at the end of Grant Morrison's run on "New X-Men."

Full-color, faded: The present, post-Jean's death
Tinted: Individual memories (color based on character)
Full-color, glowing (at the end): Shared memories of Jean

This video was incredibly fun to make, both because of Norwegian Recycling's amazingly good mashup and because of the thrill of choosing characters for the component songs. :D

Oh, that was lovely! I love how well you mixed these awesome songs together, and how they fit the characters perfectly. Great job! :D

I wish I could take credit for the song mashup, but that's not mine - it was done by this awesome guy who goes by Norwegian Recycling. I think he has a YouTube account, actually, so look him up. I love his work. XD

And thanks so much for the comment! Really glad you thought the songs fit the characters - matching them up was probably the hardest part of making the vid, lol. ^_^

[ErskineWolf]

Well Done!

Now, that I watched your video ... the story doesn't seem so tragic to me anymore ^__^ (Thank you for making me smile)

I hope that, someday,somehow, Jean will rise again and will be with Scott, because they are my favourite couple from X-Men ^__^

Oh yeah ... and the song is one of my favourites ^__^

Great video !I love it !

Five STARS ! ^.~

This took me by surprise ... man this is a great fan vid. I loved your shots (minimum lip flap) and what you did with them. You nailed the relationships, as well as choosing those relationships well. Plus you made me cry. All in all my new favorite video.
