[community profile] vid_bingo posted: Vid Bingo 2020 Project
I've been batting this idea around for several months now and would like to see if there's enough interest to make it happen.

There used to be a stigma in some vidding circles about using the same song as someone else. Which is unfortunate, because sometimes a song is an AMAZING vidding song and fits so well for so many fandoms. I enjoy seeing completely different fandoms vidded to the same song. Even the same fandom with a different take or different characters is enticing!

What if we chose a song as a group, then each signed up for a fandom to make a vid using that same song. At the end of the year, we'd have a virtual vid show that sounded like a repeat - but would really be a visual feast.

Hello everyone and welcome to a new year and a community that is most likely going to continue with sparse updates. (Although I am working on changing that...)

Something I have been thinking about is putting together a post about the various conventions that run vid shows and listing the submission dates.

I have listed a few below but I'm sure there are many more that I have missed. So if anyone knows any conventions (or similar) run vidshows and accept vid submissions, please leave a comment below so I can add them to the list. Thanks!

Instagram limits the number of external links you can use in a post. Up until last year, they didn't support longer vids or links to external websites, preferring to keep the material "in house."

[personal profile] seekingferret: Wiscon Vids/Database Vids
"But it strikes me that vids like "Transmission" and eruthros's "Straightening Up the House", which got its own 7.5K creation essay, are vids that in an essential way may reflect an emerging Wiscon aesthetic that is meaningfully different from VVC-style vids."
