You're preaching to the choir. I already have plans for vividcon in mind and have for a little while now. I just hope I can afford it :)
I'd actually like to do a panel about amvs there, especially if I can offer some first hand experiences of the differences between the two. I've done a lot of amv panels so I'd love to do one at vividcon and the content of the panels I read about from last year made me all giddy. I'm a literature, media and film teacher, see, and while I am interested in these aspects with regards to my hobbies there just arent any conventions where they are talked about... well, until I found out about vividcon :D
So, yeah, there's a few reasons why I'm making an effort to become more involved with the vidding community - I think there's a lot of knowledge to be shared and if there's anyone in the amv community who likes to talk vid meta, it's me :P
