Pimp...and... ack! talk me down! vid comment meme..

[ash48]

spn_sceneit is calling for Inspiration! The new inspiration post is up so here's the chance to voice your ideas.

Come on! You know you've heard a song or had an idea for a vid so why not leave it in a comment and see if a vidder might pick it up. You never know...

IDEA...

Now. Speaking of inspiration I need you all to TALK ME DOWN because I had this wee little (stupid) idea pop into my wee little (stupid) brain and even though I know this couldn't really work I need someone to confirm it for me. Otherwise it will fester and then somehow, actually happen...

I don't think I've ever seen this (for a damn good reason I suspect...)

But. You know how we have comment fic - people leave prompts and authors go away and write awesome stuff..weeeellll... could it ever happen that we have a comment vid meme. Where peeps leave prompts and vidders go away and make a vid...??

I am aware the problems (and hence stupid idea...) : vids take a long time to make, there aren't that many vidders around who would take on such a challenge etc. BUT! IF we had enough vidders show interest it could possibly, maybe work. (??) I'm pretty sure they'd be enough prompts but would there be the vidders to make them..?! It would be kinda cool to have a some vids around from fan prompts.

So tell me... (vidding flisters especially).....potential? Multi fandom? Vidlets? Or have I just had a glass too many tonight../o\

hey there, I`m not amongst the ... "(vidding flisters ...)" of yours, I`m here via vidding, but I have to say: that`s a great idea you`ve come up with, and I`d play along ;D

well, I`m filling promts for (graphics and ) vids right now anyway, at hoodie_time and spn_rambleon (not to mention the vid_the_grid table I bagged just recently), almost one after the other, so of course I`d be in, tehe.

For me it would be *easy* (or not *yikes*) to fill a promt if I had a song promt (best case a song promt which includes an idea for the main topic), instead of only an idea/theme promt thrown at me. I have more than enough ideas myself, but I`m missing the perfect song to go with these ideas most of the time.

and multifandom? hell yeah, that would be awesome. I`m a multifandom vidder on a regular base, and I`m sure I`m not the only one who`s vidding multifandom.
SPN is, for sure, still my no.1 vid fandom. But from time to time some of my other fandoms (especially BSG *cough*) are taking over my vidding brain.

If asked, I`d say a vidlet is just fine, but don`t limit it to vidlets only. I don`t do vidlets, I prefer to vid loooong (because sometimes longer is better ;D)

And, I`d have no promblems working with a deadline. I do so right now with the (vid and graphic) promts I`ve offered to fill. The close to 2 month deadline the other 2 comms have in place is more than okay for me.
This kind of deadline adds just the right amount of preasure needed to get it done in a certain amount of time, but still it can be done in a decent way.

less than 2 month might be a problem, but 2 month (or more) can be done, imo.

ah well, I guess I wrote way too much, especially since I only wanted to let you know that I`d be game.

Ack! You're not a vidding flistie... I will have to rectify that (if that's ok with you..).

Thank you so much for your thoughts on this and your interest.

I think multi fandom definitely means more vidders and more prompts. More of a variety all round.

I think a 2 month deadline would be ideal also.

I am thinking though if something like this happened I wouldn't want it to clash with festivids. That starts up in September. So it would need to be either before or after. If it was after it would have to be next year. Which might be cool. Plenty of time to prepare....:D

Hmmmm..... I might do a little survey and see what the overall interest might be like. *ponders*

Thanks again. If there ends up being some interest I might form a little discussion group. Maybe you might be interested in joining in if that happens. :)

hey there new friend ;D (thank you for the add, btw). Just to give you a heads up, I`m crazy even on a good day, especially when it comes with videos and vidding, he

And yes, of course I`d join a discussion group, if here is one at one point. Like said, I`m interested, and more or less in already ;D.
I really like the idea of a promt comm for vids. And since I`m doing it right now, I know filling a vid promt can be done if the idea/song fits.

oh, this would be good for lots of pretty vids *happy sigh*

About the date, this might be tricky. There`s not only festvids, but also the various BigBangs starting at one point. But I guess it wouldn`t hurt too much if it collides with one or the other. At the end, there`s only so much time during the year to do all of this.
