Dear Festividder 2020
Oct. 26th, 2020 12:34 amHi Festividder! I’m new to Festivids (and, tbh, to vidding) and excited to participate. I’ll be thrilled with whatever you do! But guidelines are usually inspiring, so here are some:
I love vids about characters and/or relationships between characters, romantic or otherwise. I love vids with humor. I love vids that tell a story. I love creative or out-of-context reinterpretations of source material, if they’re respectful. I love queer and feminist perspectives. I love people being badass, especially ladies. I love complicated feelings that don’t fit into boxes. I don’t usually enjoy things that are emotionally serious or sappy.
Re: music, I love almost anything that has both a melody and a beat. If it’s pop or sounds like pop I’m probably into it, and bonus points for being upbeat. I do have a special fondness for just about anything from the 1960s, or if you manage to use a Dessa song I’m going to die for you. That said, this is just for inspiration - it’s way more important that YOU like the song (or other audio) enough to vid!
I’m been into some popular, non-Festivids-eligible fandoms lately, so most of my Festivids fandom picks are nostalgia for me. I’ll write a few words for what I love most about each of them. I hope you enjoy (re)visiting one of them!
( Atlantis, Ghostbusters, Magic School Bus, A Midsummer Night's Dream, My Next Life as a Villainess, Stardust )
