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!

Heya. I think I have something I'd like to premiere in this vidshow if you're interested. It's a vid for the movie Stage Beauty, about a canonically bisexual/genderqueer character. (And it will probably kill me, AUGH. But I'm gonna try anyway.)

Um, I'm not sure what to say other than that... other than feel free to PM me to discuss, I guess?

Ooh - that's a new source to me! PMing now.

Wow, I LOVED the first half of that film and found it a very compelling portrait of a trans/genderqueer character, and I hated the way the text tried to normalize gender relationships near the end, and if you made this vid it would completely and utterly blow my mind and make me very happy.

Please please? Uh, please please?
