DC-Slash is an online convention coming up at the end of July. We still have ONE DAY for people to make panel suggestions (https://www.dcslash.org/dc-slash-con/programming) and I for one would LOVE to see MOAR Asian Drama-related suggestions!!!

I have made two songvids for the upcoming DC-Slash online convention!!! (You can click for more info about the con - the link will open in a new window.)

The convention is July 19-21 and the vid show deadline is July 12, so I actually got my vids in ON TIME!

There's both short, and one of them is to a Wizard Rock song. In other words, they're by me. ;-)

One is for the fandom Tatort Muenster, while the other one is about Gollum. They're premiering at the con, so I can't link to them now. But I am very excited!!!

As seen at DC Slash and REVELCon!!!

Ker and Aaron of DC Slash encouraged members to make these powerpoints to recruit their fellow convention goers to their fandoms! They also sent us helpful templates. :-)

The recruitment slides were shown at various times throughout the DC Slash convention, and were a delight! I thoroughly enjoyed learning about potential new fandoms.

I showed my Guardian slides again at a REVELCon panel to convince my fellow RCon attendees to send slides of *their* fave shows to DC Slash, too. That's not to say that I didn't put my whole heart into this "sample" presentation and possibly convert a few people! ;-)

I plan to tweak them before they're shown again, mostly by increasing the font size on the dialogue captions.

I had marked the VIDS VIDS VIDS panel as a must-see and I'm so glad I did!!! Airawyn coordinated recommendations from Escapade attendees ahead of time and put together a great selection of vids in terms of time (older and newer vids) and space (Western and Asian fandoms) and feels (deeply sad, laugh-out-loud, and many things in between).

Here's a link to watch all the vids online - you can watch them all in a row, or click on individual vids to watch them separately: https://vimeo.com/showcase/8017846

The short version: I thoroughly enjoyed this vid show! I can't give the vidders the feedback they deserve on all of the vids, since I didn't know all the fandoms. But I was tickled that I did recognize more of the fandoms than usual, and the vids were great!

At 3 p.m. we had the Gen songvids panel. I had suggested this panel idea and Jan loved it--each panelist brought a favorite vid or two to show and talk about why we loved it.

A gorgeous, gorgeous Tin Man songvid.

I commissioned it from gifted vid maker

settiai; I wanted something impressionistic and nonlinear focusing on DG's experience of the O.Z. to Enya's song "Anywhere Is."

settiai did an AMAZING job! I love every little bit of it. It debuted at VividCon, but you can all watch it here:

It's the second one down. *jumps up and down squeeing wildly*

REVELcon 2018: Vid Show

So many great vids this year! Kudos to all the vidders, and to Jamie for bringing it all together.

I was very pleased to be asked to provide another hour's worth of older vids for this year's REVELcon! Here's a list of the vids I showed, with comments, because I am so impressed by these vidders that I have to show them love! Since I was asked to focus on small fandoms, I wanted to find fun, high-energy vids that people would find entertaining even if they didn't know the fandom. I also threw in a few not-so-small fandoms like Star Trek, Sentinel, and Pros.

I had a blast, and I actually wrote my con report as I went along!

By hand.

I'll be typing it up soon! And yes, I took detailed notes on the vid show.
