Day 9: Pairings: For each of the fandoms from day two, what are your favorite pairings to vid?I feel like this meme expects me to be either far more prolific or far more consistent in which fandoms I vid ( Read more... )

Day 8: Have you vidded with original source? If so, why did you use original source?Good god, no! Choosing fonts for credits is painful enough; making my own source from scratch sounds like a nightmare. As much as I admire the art of film-making, I like coming in at the point where all the designing and shooting has been done for me ( Read more... )

Oops, I forgot to post yesterday.

Day 6: When you vid, do you like vidding a certain kind of male or female archetype? (Credit to Dualbunny for that one!)

Day 2: Name the fandoms you've vidded in, how many vids you've made in each fandom, and whether you plan to vid in them again.First was Firefly, with 2 vids, one of which I don't even have any more. I don't have anything left to say about Firefly; certainly nothing that hasn't been said a thousand times before. An insanely popular fourteen- ( Read more... )

Day 1: How did you first get into vidding, and what was the first fandom you vidded? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?After searching for online fandom for almost a decade, I got into LJ fandom in the spring of 2005.
