Title: A Million Ways to be Cruel
Music: OK GO
Fandoms: Sherlock, Doctor Who
Pairings: Sherlock/Irene, Eleven/River
Notes: To start with, this is my very first multi-fandom/multi-ship vid ever. It was equally an odd and exciting experience. I wasn’t sure whether to just mash it all up, or assign segments. I ended up going with the later with the idea in mind if I didn’t like it I could go back and change it. I did Irene’s section first, and liked it entirely too much to change.

I do think the Sherlock section is better and more well matched than the Doctor Who section, but alas, not much I can do about it. The lyrics in the first half just suited Sherlock more, I felt. :P Also I’m fully aware the ending is abrupt; I did what I could to make it smooth and fun. Editing this song down just wasn’t easy at all, not without sacrificing part of it that I wasn’t willing to give up, so.

BUT ANYWAY. The two pairings have so many similarities, and really that’s the point of this vid, to showcase that. And for me to just play with all the pretty, similar clips. I didn’t get to delve into that quite as much as I wanted, leaving it all near the end, but that’s probably what I get for segmenting it all instead of mashing it up. :P Maybe next time. Still, I had a lot of fun with it, and I hope you guys enjoy it as well. :)
