but your vids are not a simple one-time-thru-and-you-have-it thing
o.o
I've been thinking that my vids were too transparent and narratively simple, and making them harder as a result.
...oops.
Same deal with crack_van, there are often vids rec'd there that I just boggle at being held up as an example of a fandom (especially when I can rattle off 5 alternate vids that cover a variety of topics and moods and are IMO stellar) and I think a lot of this is because there is a completely different vidding aesthetic out there in fandom-at-large and in the Vidding Fandom we are fashioning for ourselves with things like the vidder list and Vividcon.
ahhhhh, good point with bringing in the Vidding Fandom!! That makes a ton of sense, actually, why more and more there feels like a vidding fandom, 'cause there's in-jokes and our own fanon, except it's kinda a meta-fandom feeding off other fandoms...sorta. er...perhaps the term I'm trying to get at is echo-chamber?
