I orginally fucked up the formatting on this but I do want to finish things I start (for now) so here is Part 2
Video #11 Posted This Year
Title: Digital Witness
Artist: St Vincent
Fandom: Twin Peaks: The Return
Category: It's a thing that exists in the world
Summary: So I stopped sleeping, yeah I stopped sleeping
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15718602
I was so floored by the entirety of The Return - I can't remember another show that has ever infuriated me and intrigued me and stuck with me and made me think so much. The idea to do the 4-screen was... I have no idea how it came to be a thing in my head - but by the time I started to make it I did know I had 4 major themes that interrelated and I would have to use the split screen. I thought about this video a lot while I was driving. I made this for the final Club Vivid.
Video #12
Title: I Know You
Made With: luminosity
Song: I Know You (Part III)
Artist: Morphine
Fandom: Hannibal; John Wick
Category: Self Portrait
Summary: What happens when two vidders share a brain.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15709767
I don’t make self portraits by myself - possibly if I navel-gaze this has something to do with not trusting myself to be honest blah blah blah - ANYWAY the idea behind this video is... um. Let me backtrack: Lum and I often joke about sharing the brane and only one of us can use it at any given time. So for this video, we each picked a source that represented the other person. We didn’t influence each other’s choices as to the source or talk about it much at all. I was to take my source and make a Luminosity Vid with it and she was to do the same with her source but to vid it as me. We passed the timeline back and forth and it was crazy. We had a conversation on the timeline and it was such a wonderful experience - we didn’t plan anything out and we didn’t discuss anything verbally, we just laid down some clips and passed it off and waited to see if the other person picked up what we put down and it was honestly creatively exciting but never ever difficult.
Video #13
Title: Come On Eileen
Artist: Dexys Midnight Runners
Fandom: Game of Thrones
Category: Thirst Study
Summary: Now you're full grown

Video #14
Title: My Prerogative
Made With: elipie
Artist: Bobby Brown
Fandom: American Vandal
Category: Dick Investigation; Dylan Character Study
Summary: "I didn't do the dicks"
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15729405
Yeah, so this was the result of Ian saying “'My Prerogative' is about American Vandal” knowing full well that I love Bobby Brown and would not be able to just walk away from an essential truth such as this. Poor elipie got dragged into this and then was subjected to waaaaay more conversations about baby farting than any two reasonable adults should have.
Video #15
Title: She Wolf
Made With: ghosttownexit
Artist: Shakira
Fandom: Riverdale
Category: Cheryl Blossom is Supreme; Cheryl/Toni; Cheryl/Veronica; Cheryl/Betty; Betty/Veronica; Cheryl/Candelabra
Summary: coming out, coming out, coming out
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15737256
Watching Riverdale was revelatory. GTE and I agree on key aspects and let us show you what is important about this show.
or
Have you heard the good news about Cheryl Blossom?
Video #16
Title: Pony
Made With: ghosttownexit
Artist: Genuwine
Fandom: Westworld
Category: AI Development
Summary: Kill All Humans
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15737499
GTE came up with this idea one night (pretty sure a lot of bourbon was involved) and oops - he told me. Now we have this video. Please heed the warnings.
Video #17
Title: Heroes
Artist: David Bowie
Fandom: Bates Motel
Category: Norman Bates Character Study
Summary: just for one day
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15748500
I wanted to work on escalation with this video. I picked this song and version because the vocals become more and more frantic and desperate, so besides being extremely lyrically compatible, it was tonally right. It felt right. I still need to work on my pacing skills but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out AND this video was my first copyright strike on youtube. So that was fun (don't post Bates Motel source on youtube).
This was also a vividprompts vid and I chose Jayne L’s prompt and I’m certain I didn’t do it justice but thanks so much for the idea!
Thus Endeth the Vividcon Vids
Video #18
Title: Night Still Comes
Artist: Neko Case
Fandom: The Leftovers
Category: dual character study of Nora and Erika
Summary: Because you can't hold it
https://archiveofourown.org/works/15857901
The Leftovers is the most amazing show that...I can't even explain. It's a tough watch but unlike slogs into pure misery like The Walking Dead, it isn't this helpless hopeless thing. That being said, the first season is a very effective study in depression. Interesting story - this was my depression vid. Ok, so that story wasn't as interesting as it was short. This is one of those vids that has an audience of one but since that one is sdwolfpup, it's worth it.
Video #19
Title: Dreams
Artist: Fleetwood Mac
Fandom: Sharp Objects
Category: Camille Preaker character study
Summary: "It's safer to be feared than loved"
https://archiveofourown.org/works/16324298
I really wanted to explore Camille's survival and what it has cost her and how even by not being Adora's victim, she was damaged and what it means when she allows Adora to "mother" her -- like in a very sad, real and primal way - she wanted her mother even if this is the price. The show did an amazing job with the concept of intrusive trauma memories and please pay attention to the tags regarding vid content
Video #20
Title: Santa Buddy
Artist: Michael Bublé
Fandom: Supernatural
Category: Dean/Castiel
Summary: Just a dude asking his buddy to buy him a bunch of stuff and hurry down the chimney and stuff his stocking. Just guys being pals.
