i know it's been actual YEARS but i come back to this video every couple of months. it's a true masterpiece and also the video that made me want to start editing, hands down the best fanvid i've ever seen
this is probably the most eloquently and professionally made fanmade video i've ever seen. literally everything about this is spectacular. and the cool thing was, it didn't really have a whole lot of complicated effects. you totally just used audio and timing really, and that blows my fucking mind. everything was timed so well, and that bit towards the end with all the mixing of sound from the show blending with the actual song was brilliant. top shelf editing, idek what to say. im assuming this is what you're going to school for bc this was pretty damn professionally made, like i can't stop watching. amazing job. commenting on this a little late but whatever lol
It's terrific. Amy Acker and Sarah Shahi may be the actors behind the characters, but they created Root and Shaw, and it was plain astonishing how well they worked together. They made you believe in a better world.
I rewatch this and 'warning sign' every couple of months, it's so f**king aesthetically pleasing and heart-wrenchingly emotional... Always looking up to your videos, magnificent pieces of art
I love all of this so much, but the sequence starting from around 1:28 with the lyrics "and if the lights are all down" deserves special mention for being so perfectly timed. This whole vid is just so, SO good.
Root will not die to a bullet of a half-wit sniper does. She will live and she and Shaw are in the Caribbean drinking Mai Tai's after blowing up a money laundry scheme to avoid taxes. I cannot imagine heroes are not present in the world. We need them.
I really REALLY want to watch POI after watching this video. It is most definitely one of my favourite videos I've ever seen. I don't know if it's the fact that I am utterly in love with both this song and your editing style that makes it so mesmerizing, captivating. You truly are inspiring!
+Kaiirel I hope you watch it. POI is such an amazing show and Root and Shaw are one of the best f/f pair right now. They really developed their characters and relationship organically.
+Kaiirel I really hope you'll watch! It's a shame there's not more people watching PoI because it really is such a great show, it deserves way more attention. Thank you so much!
I've watched this video after watching POI and if I had known before that this show was this good, I would have gotten into it a looong time ago, so yes please watch it. You won't regret.
Every once in a while I get reminded of how much that show and Root and Shaw in particular meant to me - and every time I come back to this masterpiece of a video. Gorgeous! 💕
Your editing never fails to amaze me. This is absolutely captivating. I love it. God, I'm so glad this show finally has an airdate (but also such a bittersweet feeling, since it's almost definitely the last season) and this makes me even more stoked for it.
+Nialies Sadly it will be the last Season; I hope they will change their mind, no matter how long that will take. You'r cuts were amazing :) you made it look like its everything about Semeen and Root (even the worries about the Machine) love the Actors. Really great video :)
what i realised after watching this after so many times is that the machine and root have so many parallels. they represent each other in different aspects and times. what they gone through and reach is the same thing at the end. thats why i think root lives. in the end machine is alive so is root.
@@nialies True, they are truly on another level. I plan to rewatch too but maybe next year. This year has been stressful enough and I don't want to add that up haha. I still remember crying for Shaw in S4 and then for Root in the final season 😭. I had been following all the theories to how the show will end at that time when it was still airing, how Shaw and Root will meet and to believe in hope that what happened with Root was fake but then it ended just like that 😢. I had to resort to reading fanfics about them in order to have happy alternate endings for betterment of my mental health 😅.
i honestly ignore what they did to root in the final season, I didn’t even remember lmao omg i truly blocked that from my memory. But yeah i get that, they truly messed it up with that one 😞🤙
ik this is a rly old video but I just wanted to say god this edit is GORGEOUS literally so so well made this is definitely one of those edits im going to rewatch over and over again
THIS IS GORGEOUS OH MY the editing is so good like your timing is amazing i think my favorite part is the last minute, where the noises from the clips match the beat of the song that was gorgeous oh boy. ike 2:32-2:42 like root's ankles tipping then shaw's foot locking the elevator that was B E A U T I F U L and then "you know that thing that made you flinch?" | *root's sound of fear* | "i don't get that." AHHHHHHHHHH IVE WATCHED THAT PART 5+ TIMES ALREADY NOT EXAGGERATING and just how well clips fit with the beat without being overwhelmingly quick ahhhhhhh
You're honestly killing me. I can't even begin to express how special and incredible this is. It's just so damn impressive. Your editing is just as flawless as ever, and I'm in AWE. These effects and voice overs are giving me eargasm and the overall editing is just... damn. LU. WHY.
This is... I can't even describe it with words! Your style of editing, how simple yet so captivating, it amazes me every time! I would die to see a time lapse video of you editing some of these masterpieces. :)
this is so gorgeous, the one line that keeps sticking with me is "i will follow your voice" with root listening to the machine, so incredible. time to binge the rest of your videos
AMAZING. this is seriously some killer editing, like straight up flawless. I love that it contextualizes everything, like uugnff so much lovely emotion in the first exchange between harold and root to set up the stakes. and i've never heard this cover but DANG. wow. spectacular!
How could I not see this before? it's amazing. I love root and shaw. The way you edited it was very different from the other vids. This is my favorite now!
You are, hands-down, the best editor I have ever come across, and I'm beyond grateful that you make videos for this show and couple. THIS VIDEO is so spectacularly crafted, it is easily one of my favorites, and there are so many things I love. Your clip selection, MUSIC selection (good god), timing of music beats with clips, angles, cohesion, use of color...it's all brilliant; thank you so much.
Omfg I've just been sitting watching this on repeat. The editing on this is stunning; instant fav. Heard this song cover a few weeks ago and my mind instantly went to Root too. Such a good song choice for her. Can't wait for season 5 but I'm so unprepared to let go of this show and these characters.
Spectacular, as always! Not sure how, but I missed this one on my subscriptions feed! So glad I decided to check the source, haha, your vids are the best! :)
Absolutely brilliant! I had the same idea with the song but you blew this one out of the water!!! Friggen crazy good! May 3rd couldn't come sooner! Looking forward to see what you do with the show next ;) GREAT JOB!!
i know it's been actual YEARS but i come back to this video every couple of months. it's a true masterpiece and also the video that made me want to start editing, hands down the best fanvid i've ever seen
Still thinking about this edit.

still one of the best PoI videos ever. So glad I came across this again
This is some of the finest editing I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing. BEST. VIDEO. EVER.

This video got me into editing and I come back every so often to re-watch this because it's my fav fanvid of all time

The first 4 seasons are on Netflix, and Person of Interest is my all time favorite show. I really hope you watch it.
yes omg you should watch it the show is so fucking good
You made this 5 years ago, and it's still one of my comfort videos❤❤
Every once in a while I get reminded of how much that show and Root and Shaw in particular meant to me - and every time I come back to this masterpiece of a video. Gorgeous! 💕
GOOOOOD!!!!!!!!! That's a masterpiece! Mindblowing!!!! Wonderful job!

+YouMadeMeSeeIt Same. They can't take this show from us, it's just too good. I'm still so excited for s5 though. (Thank you!)
+Nialies Sadly it will be the last Season; I hope they will change their mind, no matter how long that will take.
You'r cuts were amazing :) you made it look like its everything about Semeen and Root (even the worries about the Machine) love the Actors.
Really great video :)
love the way the audio changes at 1:19 like it’s really coming from the phone
Root and shaw love❤❤❤❤

Still remember this amazing vid...damn, I miss them sm T_T. SHOOT 4ever

THIS IS GORGEOUS OH MY
the editing is so good like your timing is amazing
i think my favorite part is the last minute, where the noises from the clips match the beat of the song that was gorgeous oh boy. ike 2:32-2:42 like root's ankles tipping then shaw's foot locking the elevator that was B E A U T I F U L and then "you know that thing that made you flinch?" | *root's sound of fear* | "i don't get that." AHHHHHHHHHH IVE WATCHED THAT PART 5+ TIMES ALREADY NOT EXAGGERATING and just how well clips fit with the beat without being overwhelmingly quick ahhhhhhh
and near the end when you match the sounds with the beat…so brilliant
every time I watch this my mind is blown by the phenomenal editing and attention to detail
The fifth season is going to be the end of me. I already arranged my funeral
holy ... this is FANTASTIC. editing skills as everyone has said, the music ,the dialogue incorporated into it. absolutely amazing.
Still watching this vid months after it was out. Flawless editing, it's a gift!
The song choice, editing, sound, timing...wow..just spectacular
If this video isnt the definition of art then idek
That was bloody fucking awesome. I really love the bond between these two. It's gone to a point that I can't read any fanfiction about them.
Whoa. Instantly subscribed. Your editing is _spectacular_. I love poi (and Root x Shaw) so much.
as a fellow editor, I really appreciated this video and the beauty of it
I constantly come back to this video. It's pure brilliance. Chills every time
Wow, I'm blown away. The violence and the sound of them matching and intertwined with the beat of the music. Amazing edit!
