capnzebbieOkay, it's as done as it's going to get. This video is set to The Dave Matthews Band's Gravedigger. It's a dark vid, not a romantic one.
Thank you to Rhiannonhero for help and advice early on when I first decided to make a video, and tremendous thanks to Mkitty_03 and Euphony for betaing. Your help made this a much better video. Also, without your detailed instructions the vid would still be imprisoned in my computer. :)

Gravedigger
And here is the story: At the beginning of the song, the "Gravedigger" is the personification of a cruel fate that surrounds Clark and his loved ones with violence and destruction. Clark protests this fate by trying to save everyone he loves. While doing this, he begins dealing out violence and destruction himself. Thus, he is in danger of becoming the very thing he protests.
I hope you like it! Let me know what you think!

I had my doubts downloading it, that the song could work for Clark, but you made it work extremely well. You have a wonderful melancholic mood going here - all the individual little tragedies of Smallville, tied together wonderfully with an ongoing theme: we watch Clark try so very hard to save the people he loves and as he realizes that ultimately, he can't - and that his meddling might even hurt them in the end. In particular, the Ryan and Emily verses gave me chills - I love how you tied in the stories of the different mutants to the people Clark loves personally (Martha, Lex, Lana).
And this is your first fannish video? Veeeery nice. I'm glad I downloaded it. :is extremely impressed:
