Panel Report: What Do We Want From Vids Now?

Note: I take notes at the con, then clean them up afterwards. The clean-up process involves a lot of memory and reconstruction, so even things that are in the first-person aren't guaranteed to be exact quotes, just my reconstruction. Please let me know of any corrections. Notes in {} are me adding my opinion after the fact.

Moderated by cesperanza and counteragent. Accompanied the Vids That Push the Envelope show veejayed by cesperanza, counteragent, and laurashapiro.
The purpose of this panel is to discuss current motivations and practices of vidding. Do we make vids for the same reasons we've always made them? What are vids doing now that is new, or is there nothing new under the sun? Are there trends in vidding, or are these just evolutions of older forms? How far can we push the envelope and still consider our creations fan vids?
