Love this!!🥰 Unfortunately I don't see a positive resolution for Carter anymore (the show is giving me whiplash - they show him being abused and his struggle, but don't seem to want him to heal or be thought of as a victim??) even though he's one of the most abused and tortured characters on the show currently, and the one most in need of help, for the sake of himself, his daughter, Lucas, JP...
You’re dead on with this. I could have a very long rant about where this poor character has had so opportunities missed for giving him the help he clearly needs desperately. I’m kinda half-done with the current narrative of Carter on the show right now thus why I manufactured my own haha.
@@punkrockjellytot I think soaps' handling of mental health is poor at best and dangerous at worst. They never follow through, respect the healing process, or adequately express what it means to struggle every minute of the day. Mental health is always used as a catalyst for cheap drama but never allowed to be considered a mitigating circumstance. Mental health is my field, and I'm always worried about how soaps use mental health for publicity and then drop it once the character bottoms out.
@@itsonlysound again, you’re so right. I had a rant on tumblr haha if you follow the tags you’ll prolly see it. A lot of wasted opportunities and very poor recognition of mental health issues.
The worst part about this is that he's going to go down for some of the things that he's done and yet to do and he will probably never get his happy ending. My heart breaks for him. He's probably trying to break the cycle of abuse that's been in his family for generations and trying to be a better man for his daughter, only aware of half much damage he's doing - because, let's be honest, Freya is a driving factor for him to embrace all of this madness. He's probably been beaten out of his mind by the people that are supposed to love him and mocked not only by his own family but by the church as well. What a lonely, frightened-for-your-life existence. Also, John Paul is trying to do a Finn O'Conner strategy actually - definitely not in the physical sense - but by calling him pathetic, he's just making it worse. He's wanting to help Carter one minute and not the next - what is that doing for someone's mental health? Carter has had to figure his own pains out all by himself, brought up in a toxic community that has never loved him. Actually, he's probably never been loved in his life before and that's why when it comes to John Paul, he can't see it. Abused, shattered, broken. Yet I'm losing all sympathy for him, and that's what makes me sad. "𝑆𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑦 𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑠."
@@JaileighJefferies Ah don’t lose that sympathy, he’s just as much a victim as Lucas if not more honestly as it’s literally destroyed his whole youth and young adult life at this point. There’s so many victims from this storyline. So important to have compassion for them all.
Awww I honestly love them I really hope there is redemption for carter bc he’s not a bad person deep down. Altho he’s done a lot of bad stuff. I can’t help but still love them together tho they are just too cute! Thank you for the beautiful edit 🫶🫶
If you wanted to do another edit on these two you could try with the song “already gone” by sleeping at last. Your a great editor and that song would suit them well
I split the sound of the audio from the clip so it’s separate then when there’s speaking I adjust the volumes and I snip out background noise etc so I can keep the vocal crisp and layered onto louder. I’m not great at it, still learning lol, I can hear issues in this video but I’m a perfectionist, I’m never happy. I just use clipchamp, something free for editing. Not sure if it’s easier on better software lol.
@@punkrockjellytot I'll try with my videoviba have to anyway I just paid 35 dollars for a year But if I have problems with Getty the audio on this one I will try what your using
Aww I wish. I'm hopeful they'll bring Carter back soon though, just feel it in my bones. I was pondering another couple in HO to vid but I'll be honest, I just don't love anyone of them haha.
I'm loving this. I like how you reedited it to make more of a love story.
This is brilliant, great work. Really wish we could have had a complex love story. Instead, hollyoaks made Carter a 2D villan.
Catherine Camp OA I don’t think it’s too late for Carter to be redeemed.
@@ChelseyLinden why you think that?
@@FH1234-u2o OA cause deep down I can see he’s a victim in this too because of Declan and his Father.
@@ChelseyLinden oh thought you said it too late for him to be redeemed
@@FH1234-u2o OA sorry I just edited my reply. Thanks for that. 😂😂😂😂😂

this was so beautiful
OA this is beautiful.

Great video
OA I know I love it too. ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
They should have developed the love story between them
yup instead they chose to villainise carter and ruin them.
I still bitter they did not end up together
another ship with potential hollyoaks wreak.
I tried doing a video today of Mcshep with audio but it only played the music
How do you keep their audio and the music together

Can you make another edit :(
