Vividcon time again! No party this year, life was just too hectic for that. I’m lucky I even got to watch every single vid! I almost thought I wouldn’t get to. I’m very sad to hear that next year will be the last Vividcon! I have loved this con for almost a decade (even though I only attended once) and there will be a true void when it’s over.

It’s Vividcon time again! I had another party again this year, though it was a little smaller than last year with way less food - I just ordered pizza this time. Having a baby means I have a lot less time for stuff like that. But I was excited to still have the party! I’m not linking each vid title to the vid post this year, instead click on ( Read more... )

I had a Vividcon viewing party at my house again this year and I thought it would be cool to make a list of all the vids I showed at the party, and the others that I really liked but didn't have time to show.

Nicki Minaj is rocking my world today.

First, bironic made a multifandom vid to Starships that I'm totally in love with.  It's squee and joy and starships and so many of my fandoms all blended together with stellar structure that makes an awe-inspiring vid.  I can't tell you how many times I've rewatched it.  I can't rec it enough.

And also a little bit ( Read more... )

I've been sitting on these recs for a while now, and I figured that I ought to just post them. So, a bunch of vids that have delighted me lately.

Sleeping With Ghosts by butterfly , Star Trek 2009 and TOS:
Hush It's OK / Dry your eyes / Soulmate dry your eyes / Cause soulmates never die.
This is a really beautiful Kirk/Spock vid that combines footage from TOS ( Read more... )

One Night Fandom by eruthros and thingswithwings
Multi-fandom (191 sources!!  All Yuletide fandoms, see the post for the official list.)  Rated R

It's a vid tribute to Yuletide, which is all about rare/ unusual fandoms and the "one night stand" nature of Yuletide.  I'm completely amazed by this vid, both intellectually and fannishly.  It totally provokes the glee I feel ( Read more... )
