festivids recs

I saw a couple other people posting festivids recs and I thought to myself WHAT A GOOD IDEA. I love festivids.

Here follows: my fave four festivids from this year.

All I Want (Life of Pi)
Vidder's summary: I'll find somebody.
My notes: I've read the book but never seen this movie. And gosh if the movie is as good as this vid then maybe I need to see it. The vid is gorgeous and intense and powerful and full of feelings and OBVIOUSLY I CRIED.

Perfect Day (Swallows & Amazons)
Vidder's summary: All of this world is for children who play.
My notes: Again I've read the books but not seen the show. But this captures so much of what I love about the books - the sense of fun and adventure and good-heartedness and SAILING and kids being kids, and basically it's lovely.

The Hardest of Hearts (Maleficent)
Vidder's summary: Darling heart, I loved you from the start, but you'll never know what a fool I've been
My notes: I knew this was going to be my favourite Maleficent vid when I saw it was vidded to a song by Florence + The Machine. I only know Florence + the Machine from vids! I've only heard a few of their songs. And yet I knew that obviously the a song from them would fit what I wanted to see in a Maleficent vid. And I was right; it's a fabulous vid and the song is just right for it.

Know Today (Brain Scoop)
Vidder's summary: Emily being cute and doing science.
My notes: I can't say it better than the official summary. EMILY. CUTENESS. SCIENCE.
