Funny thing -- greensilver and I were talking last summer during Viddingpocalyse about needing more happy things, and she said she was going to start this meme to get us talking about vids again. And I said, wow, what a great idea! She got wrapped up in other projects and hasn't yet made her post, so mine's been collecting dust for awhile, but I just found it ( Read more... )

This is something I've been meaning to do for, oh, a few years now, and bradcpu mentioning it to me the other day is the kick in the ass I needed to finally set aside time for it.

In 2008 I released the vid Love Turns 40 from the film Closer. I mentioned in the vid notes that it took me a year to make because it went through several incarnations. Not ( Read more... )

I was planning on doing festivids this year. Really, I was! And then this whole "surprise! It's your first year of teaching on NO NOTICE!" thing happened. And now I will be lucky to even do a Club Vivid vid in the next 8 months, much less Festivids. *woe* But it has been mentioned to me that if I write a Dear Festividder letter, maybe someone will like my ( Read more... )

There's been some conversation going on about VividCon's various policies, and I have some thoughts on the warnings discussion (as I have seen here). I support VividCon's current policy. I don't think there should be a required con policy for individual warnings outside the blanket warning laid out in the program/website. I am not a member of the ( Read more... )

Assuming technology doesn't stand in my way, I should have a vid dvd available in the next week or so.

- This will include all 16 of my original vids to date, including VVC09 premieres and collabs with laurashapiro and beerbad. All old vids but 1 have been remastered ( Read more... )

I should be going to bed right now, but I am determined to post something not school-related. Yanked from bananainpyjamas:

(My vids are found here.)

( a vid meme that I actually have enough vids to justify filling out )

Okay, this is a bit premature, but I figure if I go ahead and start talking about it, I'll actually have to do it. I am hoping to release a vid DVD at VividCon this year. I've got the desire and enough vids for a good collection, it's just going to be a matter of 1) tackling new tech, and 2) finding time while in grad school. I plan to name the ( Read more... )

So, you know what rocks? Vidding. And vidders in particular. As promised in my VVC report, the amazing documentary shorts by laurashapiro and Francesca Coppa are now online for viewing! \o ( Read more... )

greensilver: So while individual sections don't even out, the vid as a whole does.
me: Well, that's good. And it doesn't have to be perfectly symmetrical or anything, as long as the flow is good. It sounds like you've got a good hold on it. [That character] just has different kinds of clips. That's okay. You can only work with what you're given
Jen: Right ( Read more... )

A long overdue continuation of this list:
