Counting Paths ʳᵉᶦⁿᶜᵃʳⁿᵃᵗᶦᵒⁿ [Aneurin Barnard & Holliday Grainger crossover]

My video for this year’s Secret Santa with DSS was for the lovely ‪@MacduffProd‬ – I hope you enjoy this little dive into the reincarnation trope ♥ and hopefully you don’t have some kind of burning hate towards Aneurin Barnard, as he wasn’t actually mentioned on your wishlist 🙈 – otherwise I hope the use of Holliday Grainger makes up for it.

The story:
Once upon a time a young man wished for immortality. He was granted his wish under the condition that he would lose his one true love. The man agreed, as he had never truly loved anyone in his entire life. Fate is cruel and shortly after gaining immortality he meets a woman, whom he falls in love with and not long after she dies. As if that wasn’t torment enough, he discovers that his one true love is reborn but has no memory of ever knowing him. As centuries and reincarnations of the woman comes and passes, she starts to have dreams and flashbacks of their earlier lives and every time the man starts to believe that this will be the version of her who can “break the curse”.

I hope that makes sense in the context of the video

I considered doing the whole video in chronological order but ultimately decided that the flow of the video would work better if I mixed past and present throughout.
And finally, I have to say I REALLY enjoyed making this! At the beginning I kept doubting my choice but as it started to come together, I got more and more excited, and I swear I’ve already watched the finished video around 50 times before it was posted on here – I really like this one!
