Vid Question!

[permetaform]

'kay, color me curious, but what do ya'll consider a 'shipper vid? Or a relationship vid?

Like for instance, I consider 'Why' to be simultaneously a Lex vid and a Clex vid, in the way that 'The Fragile' was a Leeloo vid and a Leeloo/Corbin vid. But would one consider one vid-type more 'shippery than the other? If so why?

The reason I ask is 'cause I'd realized (with help) that Moment Couldn't Break could be considered a non-shipper vid...possibly 'cause we vidded a relationship subtext? (Which amuses me SO MUCH)

Then again I'm wondering if it's more of this consideration that I've posted about before, where one's concept of a relationship would alter whether one sees a relationship in a particular text at all.

...which possibly should disturb me that I'm okay with so much dysfunction in a relationship. ::blinks::

::pokes at the several open Sasuke/Naruto fics on desktop:: heh.

I also didn't see MCB as shippy. There were obviously ships being show in it, but it was clearly focused on Kurdy and the world through Kurdy.

Shipper vids for me have to specifically focus on the relationship (or subtext there of). Romantic shipper vids anyway. But there is, to me, a difference between showing how a character may be affected by certain relationships, and specifically showing those relationships through the eyes of one or both of the characters.
