late comment is late, but i hope that we talked about it enough while you were making it that you knew before that i thought the vid was excellent! (fic is too, but i commented over on AO3 for that). i think it's definitely one of your best, which is not to say the others aren't very good too obviously and to be fair to them, they are doing something very different so it's almost unfair to compare this to quirky shippy videos, but! it is most excellent and provokes many feels in the best possible way. i love how sad and hopeless and jaded avon is all the way through - it's like all the saddest parts of that series compressed together (even the happy bits are actually sad, like when he thinks briefly that blake is alive and then he isn't) so you get this really full picture of everything that is weighing avon down - particularly because you've cut it with the rest of the crew sort of supporting each other or laughing and generally holding on etc. even the sad bits for them are bits where they can find strength in pain. all avon ever finds is opportunities for more pain.
i also really like the sepia filter and the use of light on gauda prime. and i love blake's eyelids flickering the most! and the way that he says 'AVON' at the end <3.
i also love the ending - i think that really works as something that has been built up to (moving from one person to the other, much like the previous choruses), that we should expect but i didn't. also - the servalan bit is great and makes a lot of sense in the song - although every time i watch it i think 'WHY DO HER HANDS LOOK SO BIG?' (it is because she is tiny)
