A few weeks have passed since the convention, and I've been lax about getting the MWC Vid Show list posted, so I thought I'd share both the playlist from the 2012 MediaWest*Con Fannish Music Video Competition, integrated with the award winners list.
Order shown on each of the three days (Friday night premieres, Saturday afternoon, and Sunday morning) was changed each day.
Producers were not required to identify what category their videos were being submitted in. The standard MediaWest*Con categories are: Song Interpretation - Single Source; Song Interpretation - Multi-Source, Humorous, Original (made mainly from home-made footage), Constructed Reality (in which a story is told with the footage, which was never there in the original context of the footage). There were no Original or Constructed Reality vids in this year's show.
MediaWest*Con still traditionally breaks up the video show into a Gen portion, followed by a Mature portion and Slash portion. Videos are judged in the above-listed categories for each of these three classifications. For the first time in many years, there were videos submitted in the Mature classification, which were not voted on separate from Gen. Video producer Franzeska also had one Slash video ("Voices") which could easily have been considered in the Constructed Reality category within Slash, but as it was the only video in that category, it competed only in the Song Interpretation - Multi Source category instead.
Thanks, and to all the vid fans who've been e-mailing me to find out when the list would be posted, I thank you for your patience.
