Fanvid Love Meme!

Totally, shamelessly stolen from toast_ofthetown. Vidders can ALWAYS use some extra love. Especially those of us currently wrestling with festivids. Heh.

I've never done a love meme before

[giandujakiss]

But I could use the pick-me-up now :-).

Fandoms: Supernatural, Merlin, Starsky & Hutch, Buffyverse, and assorted others, viewable at my vids tag.

Hourglass is my first love of yours: such a clever concept and so well executed. All the fabulous visual parallels combined with the sharp rhythm/motion. Gah, I love that one to death!

But my absolute favorite of all time? A Charming Man! It is so so SO good. The dark tone you shape and your amazing choices in visual parallels (I still get chills thinking about the crossroads demon vs Castiel ones!) are stunning. I think I've watched this one literally dozens and dozens of times now.

THANK YOU for the awesomeness!

A Charming Man is my favorite of your vids. It's so good. :)

You're among the tippity top of my ever-growing list of "must download more vids from this vidder SOON." I love your snappy cutting and the speed ramping you do.

I don't know where to begin...I love your vids; you were my inspiration for getting into vidding myself. I particularly love "Church," which is amazing at working on multiple levels at once and accessible even though I've only seen the 1st 5 seasons of Buffy (& no Angel). I literally don't know who dozens of characters are, and yet the vid carries me along.

I love "Beverly Hills" for the way it so cleverly interprets the show, and "Teenagers" for fitting a coherent argument to a not-very-coherent song, and I made my girlfriend watch "Hourglass" and listen to me go on and on about it, and I like "Stuck to You" and "One Foot Boy" because they're so very very pretty. And I like "Mr. Wrong" because it makes me laugh even though (again) I don't know the show.

This is not really narrowing it down, is it?

You are marvelous not only at narrative and argument but visual logic, and I love the rhythms of your vids.

I like all of your vids that I've seen but especially Origin Stories for the meta, Stuck on You for the shiny OT3 and Strangelove for the troubled OT3.

Re: I've never done a love meme before

[clairful]

Eep, I don't know where to start. Church is probably my favorite vid of anyone's, ever, and Groove Is In The Heart is a close second, but I always love everything you do. My fangirling of you in general is epic. Silent, lurky, and a little stalkerish, but epic. You're my favorite vidder and your stuff has brought me so much joy. Thanks for doing what you do!

I love that you make multi-fandom vids work. \o/

[chamalla]

OMG, I've got so many vids on my comp! It's really hard to choose only a few.
I loved Mr. Wrong (so cute), It Depends On What You Pay (brilliant!) and that Not a Merlin vid-Beverly Hills (best merlin vid I've ever seen).
They are all so different but that's what I like about your vids.

I missed this first time around - just saw it now, so I *had* to drop by, because you do know that you are more or less the sole reason I have vids on my iPod in the first place, right??

Favourite vid? Till the day I die probably, it will be S&H, Joy to The World. Just damn, makes me smile along every damn time. And then there's Mr Wrong, which, seriously, once a day I need a fix of..*g* And not that I always have to to toe-tap and smile. You did a Chemical Romance one to SPN that is dark, shivery, and another one on my iPod.

So yes, to my guru in vidland, a garland. And a heartfelt thank you and bravo.

[were_duck]

I'm late to the party, but OMG, I love your vids! It's hard to pick just one for a favorite, because I really like all of them, so I'll pick two. I think "Origin Stories" is my favorite--I still watch it and get new things from the juxtaposition of the lyrics to the clips and thinking through those associations. I also love love love "One Foot Boy" for happy pick-me-ups, it is so adorable and just the right balance of source love and criticism of source, set to the most inappropriately appropriate infectious song ever.

Re: I've never done a love meme before

[stultiloquentia]

It's a tough, almost a ridiculous call, but I think you're my favourite vidder right now. I love the movement in your vids, and the way you convey your political/meta statements. Great taste in music, too.

Re: I've never done a love meme before

[meltingconfetti]

"A Charming Man"!!! "Believe"!!! "Origin Stories"!!! My three favorites of yours, and all so freakin' incredible in their own way. You have got this vidding thing down, girl, and you never fail to impress me. I love that everything in your videos just fits and any special effects or tricks you use just add to the piece. "A Charming Man" especially leaves me breathless; it made me see Castiel in a whole 'nother light. There are not enough gold stars in the world. :D

[bananainpyjamas]

I really love Origin Stories. I'd go so far as to say it's probably the best social meta vid I've ever seen. I found it incredibly transparent, and considering I've never seen Buffy, that's saying something.

Of course the fun/cracky Merlin vids are very much appreciated too. ;)

Re: I've never done a love meme before

[aycheb]

Beverly Hills and The Real Slim Shady are my pick-me-up vids. Origin Stories and It depends on what you pay are my think-me-up vids.

Re: I've never done a love meme before

[littleheaven70]

One of the cool things about this meme is going through and discovering vidders I've not come across before :o) I'm delighted to have checked your work out, because love your vids! Especially Hourglass - I had no idea so many shows had done "Groundhog Day" style eps. As a vidder and viewer I'm a big fan of clean, snappy editing that's not overpowered by effects, and I think that's why I like yours so much - you let the source speak for itself and your clip choice is fantastic.
