Setting! It's Where You Are!
At VividCon this August, I'll be modding a paired vidshow and panel on the use of setting in vids. (So excited! Eep!) I already have a ton of awesome vids in mind, but I know there must be some great ones I'm not even thinking of -- I'd love any suggestions y'all can pop my way! (The official vid suggestion form will be going up in the next few days, and when it does, I'll link to it here -- I just wanted to go ahead and put some feelers out.)
To give you an idea of what I'm looking for, the blurb is as follows:
Dense forests, labyrinthine prisons, long hallways, sprawling vistas, the streets of Rome ... every vid contains setting -- the place and time in which our characters find themselves -- but often our focus lies elsewhere. The vidshow will focus on vids that use these specific elements of setting (rooms, structures, landscapes, etc.) to carry major symbolic, emotional, or narrative weight. The panel will discuss elements of setting (time, location, mise-en-scene, etc.), the effect that certain settings have on an audience, and how this is put to work in vids (using the vids from the show as beginning examples).
Thanks!
