**PLEASE WATCH in HD 720p** (and read the description box for more information about the storyline/video)

This is my Entry for the BOIT Challenge "Trailer".

This is a promo for an "almost AU story". Why "almost" ? Because the storyline is based on real facts of the Doctor Who Series but since we didn't actually see Rose fighting for finding her way back to the right universe where the Doctor lives I decided to focus on that part.

**********************************
To the BOIT judges : We were supposed to complete a trailer/promo for..well...whatever fandom we wanted. I really appreciated the large possibility of subjects the challenge gave us ! But it doesn't mean the round was easier ! I even think it was the hardest one ! I wondered how on earth I was going to be able to keep my vidding style and to follow the rules required by a trailer at the time.
But to clear this up from the start : I would prefer calling the vid a "promo" instead of a "trailer" since I decided to leave the storyline a bit blurry (in the old "show, don't tell" kind of way). Indeed from my personal POV I have always been attracted to that type of promotion for a movie. That kind of teaser which leaves you with many questions, doesn't give too much away but confuses you enough to want to see more of it at the same time (because obviously many scenes are out of context and aren't really what they seem to be).
I guess I'm going to be miles away from what people would expect to see but I really hope the main goal of a trailer (which was making the people who watch the promo wanting to see more) has been reached (or at least touched upon).
I know I didn't apply the usual look af a trailer and at first I wanted to delete my coloring. But I choose to create a particular atmosphere.
I was really undecided about the fandom I wanted to vid and I could have taken a risk in vidding Doctor Who since I believe none of the judges actually watch the show...But I guess that this is a good exercise to know whether my promo is worth it ! ^^

**************************
Building the video - The Storyline in a few words : the original storyline is set (for those who already are familiar with Doctor Who) at the end of the season 2 when Rose is trapped in a parallel universe and is left dead in the right one. She is separated from the Doctor after saying to him she loved him. There is no way back.
Rose manages to come back 2 seasons later but she loses the Doctor over again since she came back in the alternate universe at the end (for those who would wonder Human Ten doesn't exist in my story).
The storyline of the video is supposed to be based after that last time Rose loses the Doctor. She is willing to give anything and even her life to get her Doctor back.
Will she manage to do so or will she lose everything ?

A few tips for a better understanding of the video for those who won't have any idea who/where/when/what is Doctor Who : He is a man who travels in time and space and Rose was his companion for a long time. The words "Bad Wolf" are a warning something bad is going to happen.
