VID REC: Homestuck: [S] Exile Vilify by Yoccu
Fandom: HOMESTUCK
Pairing: n/a
Musical Artist: The National
Vidder on LJ: n/a
Vidder Website: On Tumblr
Why this must be watched:
(First, hope this goes through on the correct day - I'm out of town Thursday-Sunday, and am trying to postpone this post!)
Since Homestuck doesn't have a lot to work with, in terms of vidding, a fairly common form of fanwork is to take a song and draw static panels matching the lyrics. Some other fandoms do this as well, but I've never seen a set term for it. Often, the artist (or someone else) takes those panels & song and puts them on Youtube, sometimes with a small amount of animation.
Yoccu created a gorgeous vid here, outlining some of the moments of the troll session and illustrating them in her beautiful style. The panels match the lyrics perfectly, and the emotions of each panel really come through. It's a bit painful to watch - she did a great job of showing just how much hurt everyone was in.
The vid unsurprisingly has better pacing than the static panels, but both are worth a look, depending on which you enjoy.
