Stronger (Harder, Better, Faster)

Tony Stark set to Kanye West and Daft Punk
XVid, 35MB
The song is on my default playlist, and last week, in the throes of full-blown fandom crazy, I started obsessing about what a fantastic track this would make for an Iron Man vid. And then one of the DOOMTHREADS -- it is 4:30AM, and I am too brainfried to figure out where, even with Gmail's halfway decent search engine -- somebody mentioned wanting to see it. And uh. I was too tired to write tonight, so here! HAVE MY OBSESSION.

Started at 10PM or so of Friday night, finished around 4AM of Saturday morning. Not much in the way of movie-independent storytelling, which is probably why it came together so easily. It usually takes me about eight hours per minute, but I banged this together in way, way under that. Think more like a 5:20 recap of the movie than anything else.

by the bye, [livejournal.com profile] quigonejinn, I finally got a chance to sit down and watch both this and Freedom Hangs and, WOW. I'm even less of a vidder than a ficcer but these are both really, really lovely. I confess to making a high-pitched noise in the middle of Freedom when it goes to banjo solo to the visual of Iron Man stalking away from his Gulmira tank explosion, because who knew banjo would fit the man so well?! Eeee, just, a SUBLIME moment. and word to whoever said that music really underscored the Americanness of Tony's story.

and of course, Kanye, with your precise and excellent editing choices, to a song that just works so well. Gah. I mean, I actually loved the not-sharp cam version because it made it all moody in a way I don't know a sharp image would have. It's obvious you poured a TON of work and love into both of them; I can't even imagine the energy you've poured into this fandom this week, but it's so wonderful. Thank you!
