BtVS / AtS - Make Me Wanna Die

I rarely make music videos. I'm much more a trailer or random character tribute kind of gal. But this song was just too perfect to pass up. Listen to those lyrics: "opportunities for eternity"? "I could belong to the night"? "Everything looks better when the sun goes down"? "Will burn up in the light"? Please. It had to be done.

So, this took me pretty much all summer. I've been working on other things in between because this one gave me so much technical trouble, trying to coordinate over 100 Buffy and Angel episodes with sound clips into one project. I don't recommend it. As a result of this taking so long, it's a little spastic in terms of the clips and storylines I chose to showcase, just because I typically included whatever episodes I had watched recently and wanted to use. Next one will be more organized, I promise. Perhaps something Wesley-oriented, because he is a bamf.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated! :)

Can I ask you, what's name of the font you used at the beginning, or where can I download it? Thanks a lot

[illyrium24]

@Prophecy1Girl It's called Batik Regular, I assume you can download it on any site for fonts! That one actually came with my program though.
