VVC recs!

\o/ There are some VVC vids posted already! (Fair warning: I will probably do nothing but spam you all with vid recs this week. It's going to be great.)

Start the Commotion by [livejournal.com profile] danegen [Leverage]

I have been wanting to rec this vid for such a long time! It's a great encapsulation of everything I love about Leverage. Hardison is awesome! Parker and Eliot both agree! So should you. :D

You Shook Me All Night Long by [livejournal.com profile] mresundance [multi-fandom]

This is a celebration of women vidders and women in vids and it's delightful. So many of my favourites! Also, yes, that is my vid in there, nestled in alongside some very excellent company.

Thriller by [livejournal.com profile] buffyann [Supernatural/Buffy]

The movement and the musicality of this is just amazing - it's exciting and scary and highly amusing in parts. Who knew these shows looked quite this similar?

Bachelorette by [livejournal.com profile] obsessive24 [Buffy]

More seasoned Buffy viewers than I will get much more out of this, I'm sure, but I can tell you that this is thought-provoking, well-argued and beautiful to watch.

Seven Nation Army by [livejournal.com profile] charmax [multi-fandom]

My reaction to this can probably be summed up as 'eee charmax vidded robots again!' But really it's cleverer than that - it's fun and bouncy and must have been great fun to dance to at Club Vivid, but it's also smart and does lots of interesting things with the different sources (which are lots of my favourite robot shows/films).

I watched all of them (minus the Leverage vid; I haven't seen any of that show), and they were great! I loved "Thriller" and "Bachelorette" in particular, although seeing your vid in "You Shook Me All Night Long" was a nice surprise (since I didn't read the description, ha).

I was lj hopping and had to say thank you for the rec, so thanks. I'm having a blast catching up with all these vids. So much awesome.

It's like Vidding's Christmas! :D

Hey, thanks for all the vid links. I feel stupid for asking, but what exactly is VVC? Sorry!

[identity profile] inksheddings.livejournal.com 2009-08-17 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah! Okay. Very cool. Is there a master list of all the vids anywhere? Or are you getting these from your flist? Sorry for all the questions. :P
