DEAR FESTIVIDDER.
The mandatory "dear festividder, squee!" letter:
HI HI HI FESTIVIDDER,
Seriously, I cannot actually contain my squee at how awesome your vid is. I can see into the future, y'see, and IT IS AWESOME.
Um. Yes.
So basically I love all kinds of vids doing all kinds of things. Ignore whatever requests I made in the comment form, they were totally spur of the moment and irrelevant. And also I can't even remember them anymore. Whatever your personal strengths/preferences are as a vidder, DO THAT. I love well-crafted vids of all formats and genres and it doesn't even matter if I like the song or not, once I've seen the vid I will probably download the song and listen to it incessantly on my iPod even if it's an artist I thought I hated. TRUE STORY.
The fandoms I requested -
Request #1: Band of Brothers [TV]
I LOVE EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS MINISERIES. If you're feeling shippy, I'm a particular fan of Winters/Nixon; but I also ship the cinematography/everyone HARD, so. God this show is gorgeous. VIDDERS DREAM, RIGHT HERE.
Request #2: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid [Movie]
My only request is that we do not forget the unbridled awesomeness that is Miz Etta. Beyond that, go nuts.
Request #3: Eddie Izzard [DVD, Live Comedy]
HIS FACES OMG. And mimes! This would have to be a very silly vid, I suppose.
Request #4: The Fall - 2006 [Movie]
Did I mention gorgeous cinematography earlier? THIS MOVIE. RIGHT HERE.
Request #5: The History Boys - 2006 [Movie]
BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS I LOVE THEM ALL.
Request #6: Ocean's Eleven series - 2001-2007 [Movie]
TEAM HIJINKS. I am not very shippy of anyone in this series. Possibly deep romantic love songs should be out. Unless you have a brilliant idea for a deep romantic love song, in which case, I bow to your awesomeness.
Request #7: Queer as Folk - UK [TV]
Look, I don't even know why I'm trying to be specific anymore, I'm just kind of overwhelmed by love for this show and all of its wacky gay characters (AND HAZEL AND DONNA), so really, anything goes.
Request #8: Sports Night [TV]
Kim and Elliot, overlooked geniuses. Go for it. (Or anyone. Did I mention I love everyone? Because I LOVE EVERYONE.)
Sorry, that was the worst letter ever. BUT I LOVE YOU ALREADY.
