Vidshow: Go West, Young Vid!
VJ: RadixIsCat
Timeslot: Sat, 2pm

Description: For everyone that has ever found themselves daydreaming that they should have been a cowboy ... vidder. And for those of us that just want to be along for the ride! Good, bad, or gloriously gray (nope, not a typo ;D), they're all saddled up and searching for that perfect sunset.

1. A Cowboy's Gotta Do (A Man's Gotta Do) by Kosh_003. Cowboy Bebop
The “Old” West means space cowboys?!? (DL from a-m-v.org)

2. Legend of a Cowgirl by Shati. Firefly.
Yes, and kick-ass space cowgirls too!

3. So You Say by Eunice. Little House on the Prairie.
Out on the prairie, claims must be staked boldly. Even if you're still in pigtails.

Sometimes, when a group of Pony Express riders love each other very much... (Premiere)

5. No Man's Land (Far Side of Crazy) by Mister Anderson. Tombstone.
Madness may inspire action, but it still calls for nerves of steel to take up the gun.

6. To Be a Man (Who Let the Cows Out) by mresundance. 3:10 to Yuma.
And a special brand of courage to lay it back down.

7. Last Stand in Open Country by Sisabet. Angel.
But not every gunslinger wears a holster, and not every showdown is final.

8. Crawling Back to You by Radixiscat. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
Following the right person can leave you on the wrong side of the law. (Premiere)

Some choices leave you with nothing at all. (Link unavailable. Original LJ entry)

Every bond in the West gets tested, and badges weigh heavily, even on the strong.

13. Show Me What I'm Looking For by Talitha78. The Magnificent Seven.
But in the end, love is all that will ever be left—no matter what genre we live in.

Vidshow: Heavy Metal
VJ: Destina
Timeslot: Saturday, 11 am

Description: Cars, guns, and robots: three delicious staples of the fannish diet.

1. Pump It! by SDWolfpup. The Losers.
A burst of energy to start the show, and a perfect example of how to highlight the most kick-ass features of a movie that doesn't quite live up to its potential.

2 Around the Bend by Danegen. Multi.
A gorgeous tribute to and celebration of women and their cars, where cars, speed, and planes = freedom and opportunity.

3. Dscs of Vlcty (Pts.OF.Athrty) by Mister Anderson. TRON.
Most people don't think of Tron as a robot movie, but I do. Tron takes place inside a machine, and the world is one of code and logic gone awry. This vid captures it well.

4. Why Are You Here? (Living Dead Girl) by Prodigi. Wanted.
So you want to be an assassin? This vid captures how movies make a culture of forbidden violence both sexy and mesmerizing.

5. Brick House by deirdre_c. Supernatural.
Dean Winchester is in love with his car. This is why.

6. Radar by Greensilver. Die Hard.
Every action vid show needs a good dose of John McClane, the long-suffering, everyman badass.

7. Thrown Away by Katheryn. I, Robot.
To become sentient is to risk feeling things. This is a poignant vid on that topic, with an unusual POV.

8 Super Bon Bon by gwyneth. Fast and Furious series.
Move aside and let the (men) go through in their fast cars.

9 狼 (Wolf) by Kay. 2002.
A great example of how a (mostly) unknown action movie source translates perfectly across language barriers.

10 Rock Star by Melanie. NCIS.
A fun vid in a fandom I don't usually think of as being packed with entertaining action vids. (Vidder's website).

11 This Girl Is Taking Bets by Killa. Alias. (Link unavailable)
A hot woman with a gun who owns her sexuality - not as uncommon in media as it used to be, but still not as common as it should be.

12 Shock the Monkey by giandujakiss. Hawaii Five-0.
On the surface, this is a vid about Five-0 using full immunity and means, but when you look a bit more closely, it's about the way the show fetishizes and glamorizes violence. Because of the dual perspective, I couldn't resist including this vid.

13. Running on the Ragged Edge (Elevation) by macchinainterna. Speed Racer (movie).
Sure, it's about cars, but it's also eye-popping and visually stunning.

14. Unnatural Selection (Pussycats Gone To Heaven) by Charmax. BSG/Terminator/SCC.
The robots are coming, and they're going to wipe you out.

Vidshow: Setting: It's Where You Are
VJ: sweetestdrain
Timeslot: Saturday, 10 am

Description: Dense forests, labyrinthine prisons, long hallways, sprawling vistas, the streets of Rome ... every vid contains setting -- the place and time in which our characters find themselves -- but often our focus lies elsewhere. This vidshow will focus on vids that use these specific elements of setting (rooms, structures, landscapes, etc.) to carry major symbolic, emotional, or narrative weight.

1. Ghost of a Shark by SE. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
Intercutting landscape and shadowed rooms with the quiet interplay between Jesse James and Robert Ford adds to the vid's overall sense of regret and longing.

2. Needs by tearful eye. Multi.
Setting is one of the elements (together with movement and color) used to link several women and their separate narratives.

3. Icebound Stream by sisabet. Due South.
External source of glaciers and wilderness is used to depict Fraser's own unique view of his relationship with Victoria.

4. Caged Bird by Luminosity. Last Year at Marienbad.
Walls, hallways, and mirrors form a surrealistic cage for the characters in this film.

5. Break the Night with Color by Eunice. Doctor Who.
Details of Van Gogh's surroundings not only bring this famous artist to life, but also highlight the deep emotional connections being made between the characters.

6. Compass Points (Comfortable Mystery) by newkidfan. Stargate Atlantis.
The construction of new, surreal settings works to alter the story told by what might be, in their original context, familiar clips.

7. Anomie (People Are Strange (Infected Mushroom Mix)) by Charmax. Sherlock (BBC).
London serves as the framework for this perspective on societal dysfunction (and also serves as a character in its own right).

8. Recalled to Life (Vintervalsen) by bironic. The Secret Garden.
Here, shots of setting parallel the growth of the garden with the gradual growth and rebirth of the characters who tend it.

9. Monochrome by sweetestdrain. Carnivale.
Narrative and emotional tone are heavily informed by the setting of the Dust Bowl.

10. Ragged Ass Road by f1renze. Prison Break.
Michael navigates interior spaces and divisions while quite literally embodying his prison.

11. In Your Eyes by Lynn. Stargate SG-1.
An exploration into the vastness of space—and desire.

12. All We Have (Love Is All We Have) by here's luck. Treme.
Pairing a song and a show that both depict life in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, this vid paints a gorgeous portrait of a place using the people that call it home.

Hi everyone -

When we set the Dreamwidth community up, we intended to cross-post official announcements but only allow member posting on the LiveJournal community, to centralize discussion.

LiveJournal is down (again!) as I type. I've set the comm to allow posting from members, at least for the time being.

Also, a reminder that we have a Yahoo! group.

Many individual VividCon attendees have twitter accounts. Mine is here: par_avion and most of the people I follow relate to vids/vidding.

Feel free to check in with your twitter name in comments, if you're into that sort of thing!

Vidshow: Nearly New (Part 1)

Kneel before Zod!

5. Only Girl (In the World) by talitha78. Descpicable Me.
Cuteness trifecta: little girls, Minions, and unicorns.

It goes: all my troubles on a burning pile, all lit up and I start to smile. A Castiel character study.

7. A Hazy Shade of Winter by sabaceanbabe. Battlestar Galactica (2003).
Right and wrong, cylons and humans and final five, the lines are blurred on New Caprica...

8. Samsa Morning by Dualbunny. Lost in Austen.
Give her a goddamn break, fucker.

You make me feel there's a part of me that I want to get back again.
