Vidding Love Meme

[thuviaptarth]

I am in a terrible mood, so I would like to make it better by seeing people say nice things about vids. Let's do a vidding love meme.


Instructions/Rules

1. Comment with your username, a link to your vids, and the fandoms you vid for (or a selection you've vidded the most for, if you're all over the place).
   
2. People will comment telling you what their favorite vid by you is, what show/character/pairing they think you vid best, and other positive comments. They can also mention what they think you should vid more of, or anything else concerning what they like about your vidding. If you don't want anything like suggestions for what you should vid more, just mention it in your original comment.
   
3. Post it to your journal!
   
4. This is a love meme. No wank, no insults, no concrit. Just the love!

Vids on AO3 / DW / LJ

Lots of one-off fandoms and some multifandom, with repeats in SGA, House, and stuff involving sci fi, vampires and/or Kink Bingo.

"Names" was one of the first Festivids I ever saw, and I still find it beautiful and deeply moving. ♥ Bonnie ♥

Also I love the smart and deeply considered things you have to say about vids and vidding.

Iiiiiiii don't remember where I saw "Repetition" (it was some time ago), but I'm not sure I ever left a comment, and that's really awful of me. It's an INCREDIBLE vid - the song choice is perfect, the editing blows my mind (with both adrenaline and thinky thoughts), and oh, the narrative you structure out of Tony's compulsive nature, his drive and his genius and his flaws, and the delightful and damaging actions through which he channels them... gosh. I've always found it rather difficult to relate to his character in the Marvel universe, but your vid told me a story that I nodded all the way through, because he is just that amazing and terrible and complicated, spinning in his patterns and trying to break out of them and falling in and out of the new versions of the same old, and struggling with the best of them. Just - WOW. I love this vid; thank you for making it. You seriously rock.

[no_detective]

I think you know how much I love your work, but just because I don't think I say it enough: "Masters of War" remains one of the most powerful viewing experiences I've ever had in all my years in fandom. ♥

(Also, I have bought SO MANY SONGS because you made me love them through your vids, so thanks for that!)

Ooh me! Rather out of date vid masterlist and up to date vid tag. Fandoms all over the place. Most vidded: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Luther. Most recent: Wonder Woman, Gone Girl, Grey's Anatomy, Alias, Borgen, lots of festivids. So many more, so many vids!

Very scattered fandom-wise, but I did a lot of Battlestar Galactica back in the day. I usually do one vid for a source, but I have multiple vids for Supernatural, Teen Wolf, Person of Interest, Firefly, Fringe, Doctor Who, Merlin, Angel, Dollhouse, and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I love how careful and thoughtful your vids are. There are so many layers of meaning, the care you take with each choice is clear, and the visuals are so smooth and connected. I love character studies and yours are some of the best! They're just so coherent, little pieces of show meta in pretty visual and musical packages. Riot Act & Etheric Messages are still two of my favorite vids, and I think have definitely influenced my own vidding and the type of vids I aspire to. SELFISHLY I obviously wish you'd vid more TSCC, because they'd be so smart and great, and because I think the visuals and themes of that show are so well suited to the kind of careful character work you can do so well! But I will watch whatever you make! :)

[chaila]

I still love Boy with the Bubblegun so much! It was a joy to see it as a premiere at Wiscon the first time, but I especially enjoy how much there is to get from it on multiple watches. It manages to show so many important facets of Katniss, her determination and compassion, and how she just absolutely refuses to be anyone's pawn. Such a good vid!

[chaila]

I LOVE YOUR AWESOME BRAIN. Watching your vids is like letting you put my eyes and brain in a blender; it's such an experience. I can't ever figure out how it works because it's too seamless. Someday I will edit motion a third as effectively and awesomely as you. I can't even pick favs because you do so many things so well! The meta thoughts of Flawless, the poignant character work of your Ray Fiske vid, the sheer amazing onslaught that is the cutting of URA Fever. Mostly I just want to watch whatever you make next!

[kuwdora]

MASTERS. OF. WAR. FOREVER.

ALSO I REALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU MADE RIDDICK MOVE. LIKE A LOT A LOT.

[kuwdora]

bitch, your vids so great, you got me into Heroes, that Sylar dude, and now look at where I am now. you inspire.

also you fuck with my head, that Runs in the Family Abigail vid is mindblowing among other things.

[kuwdora]

your vids are my everything. Parable is exquisite, Birgette in Damned if You Do is the vid that I've always wanted and you and beccatoria are amazing effects on each other.

Re: thuviaptarth

[kuwdora]

Your Caprica vid truly does the show justice and captures the tone of what the show should have been consistently. Hey Ho is so fucking brilliant that if I had room in my closet I would create an altar to it and watch it every morning before I wake up and every night before I go to sleep because of how much thought, the editing prowess put into that vid. aaugh. my heart.

Heroes, Stargate, Sanctuary, Marvel, horror sci-fi film, House, due South, and the list goes on da-dum-da-dum.

what would you love to see me vid?

[no_detective]

....so apparently it's impossible to rewatch that Riddick vid only once. #yummmm

Re: thuviaptarth

[kore]

Your vids are so good they actually got me into three shows -- Fringe, SCC, and The Inside. I want to see Caprica, too. Those vids also introduced me to artists who became favourites (was just listening to Alina Simone today).

I also really love the most recent two Marvel vids, it's gorgeous. And ORIGIN STORIES.

Doctor Who, MCU, Merlin back in the day, a bunch of other stuff. vids tag

♥!

[elipie]

Ooh I love this idea! Thanks for doing this. :D

Slightly out of date masterpost and vids tag, which has more recent stuff.

I've mostly vidded one-off fandoms (Brooklyn Nine Nine, Revenge, Broad City, Merlin, Don't Trust The B, Magic Mike, and other random movies) and also did a lot of Social Network vids and more recently a few vids for The Flash.

[elipie]

I absolutely love your kink bingo vids! The first time I saw them was quite a while ago, but I still think about Satisfaction and Humping Robot probably more often than I should be. :D Also Starships is obviously amazing, and *loved* I Like The Way You Move!

[elipie]

I love you and your style is so beautiful and unique. I am pretty sure you put ideas in my head without me realizing what I just saw, because you are masterful.

[elipie]

I love a lot of your vids, especially Hot Mess (!!), the bloody explodey ones and your multi-source vids. I would love to see more multi stuff from you like Blue and Hook Shot, because even though it's haaaard, connecting those sorts of visuals to form a narrative is something you're extraordinarily talented at. <3

[elipie]

Your vids bring me pure joy! It's so easy to tell how much you love whatever source you're vidding. Your delightful personality shines through your work. :D

[violace]

I watched so many of your vids lately, even the older ones I never got round to watching before and they impressed me so much. I feel like you put your soul in your vids and it's visible and I love that. I also love that you vid weird shit and make it look amazing and pair it up with music that amuses me and makes me uncomfortable at the same time. (Like Splice. Angel keeps playing in my brain several times a day ever since I saw that.)

[amnisias]

What a lovely idea!

So far I've never vidded the same fandom twice. My tastes are eclectic, so the vids range from Supernatural (first vid) to Grantchester (last vid)and pretty much everything inbetween. Masterlist at http://www.amnisias.com/video.html with links to streaming at LJ.
