VVC Queer Vidshow: call for suggestions!

[such_heights]

So, the VVC organisers have had a moment of madness and given me a vidshow to run. I am going to need your help!

The vidshow is We're Here, We're Queer, and it's pretty much what it says on the tin: vids that are focused on canonically LGBT/queer/trans* characters. Opened up to gen, het, slash, poly, angst, drama, comedy, in fandoms big and small, hopefully there will be a bit of everything!

Friends, lend me your recs in any and all fandoms - Saving Face, Transamerica, Skins, Queer as Folk, Torchwood, The L Word, Grey's Anatomy, Buffy, Ugly Betty, RPF fandoms, anywhere there are queer people! Extra bonus points for people who can point me towards vids focused on queer non-white characters and on genderqueer/trans* characters.

Please feel encouraged to nominate your own vids, and also, should you happen to feel inspired by the theme and think you could make a vid by June 1st, having a premiere or two would be pretty awesome. Official-ish forms will be up on the VVC website shortly, but in the meantime, rec me things! :D

Also, I would seriously love to hear any and all advice on VJing and vidshows at cons from both VJers and audiences, given that I have never attended one much less organised one before!

There's a couple of Cain & Gina vids I'm considering, but I am a bit undecided on that front! If I can find that Gaeta vid I may go for that instead for my BSG quota. In general, actually, it is much easier to find vids that are angsty and depressing than vids that are happy and joyful. Sigh!

Also, I wish that someone else would make an Imagine Me & You vid so that I could play it! *attempts to send subliminal messages to the hive mind*

oh buddy, I wish I didn't have 8758947499 obligations right now, or I would definitely make you an Imagine Me & You vid for this panel. And I should've known that the angsty and depressing vids would win out in the end! *fistshake*

I am now doubly committed to getting my pal to finish up her vid about queer ladies so it can find its natural home here.

Just putting kiki_miserychic's O Death on your radar for Cain/Gina if you haven't seen it. Very angsty and depressing and dark but a really freaking good vid.
