Vidder's Choice vidshow playlist
This is a little late, but after all the frantic activity in the run up to VidUKon, I ended up either hibernating or playing Dragon Age: Origins obsessively for weeks afterwards. And yet, it feels odd not to be working on the next one yet...
One of the two vidshows I was lucky enough to be involved with for VidUKon was the Vidder's Choice vidshow; the brainchild of such_heights, the idea was to have a show made up of vids that weren't premiering but were submitted by attending and supporting members - a chance for everyone to get another vid shown, and as it turned out, an interesting introduction to the con and the people there. Seventeen vids were submitted in total, and with more than 50 minutes of playing time the show was split into two halves with an intermission in the middle.
The vids cover a whole range of fandoms and eclectic tastes, and while that made putting together a running order something of a challenge, I'm really glad I had the chance to do it; I'm not sure if I'm allowed to play favourites or not, but even through I didn't get much chance to chat to people at the con, I did get the chance to tell purplefringe just how much I liked her Firefly/Serenity Zoe/Wash vid, Devil's Spoke. It's such a lovely, warm vid that I knew when I first saw it that it was the vid I wanted to finish the show with, and while I didn't get to gush embarassingly at many vidders at the con, I did for this one.
So, here are the playlists for the two halves of the show; some of the links are to vid masterlist posts where I couldn't find individual journal entries for them. I hope everyone who attended the show enjoyed it as much as I did!
