Sherlock Beachboys Video Rec

[pennswoods]

Title: Sherlock + John - ♪ 'God Only Knows'
Song: God Only Knows by the Beach Boys
Vidder: amyyam
Notes: I already love this song, so I was naturally predisposed to enjoy the vid, but the editing was spectacular. Frequent cuts are made between clips from both seasons and the pilot building up to a sequence of three-way split screen shots that juxtapose perspectives from both John and Sherlock in the outer frames with joint moments featured in the middle frame. It's like they are looking back on their relationship with us. Amazing visual storytelling through editing.

*happy sigh* I wrote this song into a story once, but I think I love it even more here. Wonderful musical and video editing (the a capella open is either has the instrumental bits edited from the Pet Sound recording or has been seamlessly integrated from another recording). Just beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing!

Oh so cool. If anyone would be familiar with the musical editing, it would certainly be you. I do love this song and video so much.
