starladyFestivids have been revealed!
seekingferret made me Istanbul, a fun, snappy and very slightly snarky Charlie's Angels (2019) vid. I should have known that someone with a penchant for making vids to non-English songs and the same sense of humor displayed in the vid would make me a treat displaying those traits. Many thanks!
thuviaptarth made me a vid for Watchmen (2019), Nothing Is Safe, a devastatingly effective vid to a clipping. song that really leans into the hard truths the show embraces and which is just a great example of the way thuvia can build things through a vid. If you haven't seen the show, heed the warnings in the tags.
I made two Festivids this year and I'm very proud of both of them. This was kind of a hard year in the exchange for me--between the pandemic and the post-election, pre-coup jitters I didn't sit down to really start vidding my assignment until the week after Christmas and I was moderately worried about getting it done. Then I finished it in, um, two days. Welp.
Stranger Companies – I really love how this vid came out; I think it does exactly what I wanted and I was really happy with the way the vid reflects, at least for me, the queerness and the power of queerness that the show celebrates. I loved the show so much after I sat down to watch it in November (I offered it sight unseen, a practice I recommend if you like to live dangerous) and then I tried to find some criticism fo the production when it was on and…a lot of the criticism is bad. Straight people missing the point everywhere. I really like the Perfume Genius track I chose, and I think it fits very well with the play.
Odds Are – I had been planning to make an "Odds Are" vid for![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
vid_bingo all last year, and had basically settled on the idea of an animated fandom, but never quite decided which one until Star Trek: Lower Decks started airing, and then it was inevitable. I clipped for bad things happening in the show in October and November and then sat down and put it all together in a few days in January. There was a lot of trial and error with various things and the dog lip-syncing was not intentional, but some things like the stuff with Q never really moved after I laid them down. That colls is also the mod for vid_bingo made it even better, imo. And yes, I thought this one was pretty obviously me; someone even guessed in the vidding Discord beforehand that I would make a Festivid for this show! I have a brand and I'm pleased with it.
