Dusts off the countertop....

Hello vidders!!
Welcome to the monthly(-ish)* chatter post (*every other month?). Feel free to talk about any vidding topic at all, it doesn't need to be related to your bingo card - although it can be!

Seeing the posts about the new mods makes me realize that festivids will be gearing up again before we know it!
What small fandoms have you looking forward to this year's event? What small fandoms have you made or received in past years that still warm your heart?

I picked up a pinch hit in Festivids last year and am pretty excited to participate fully this year for the first time!

My sister and I were talking about what fandoms we might want to request last night and were a bit overwhelmed at the options — I think all but about 4 of the vids I’ve made are for Festivids eligible fandoms, so there are a lot of small fandoms close to my heart. I guess I always enjoy the funny or heartwarming sitcom vids, but I’ll watch anything I’m vaguely familiar with when the vids drop.

I am not sure if I will join this year (it would be my second time participating) but I KNOW I will watch the vids when they drop, I am actually already looking forward to that, there are always so many cool sources and vids out.

I've make progress on a Word of Honor vid that will probably fit my 'anti-hero' square! (among other things, I'm really excited that I actually have an idea about how I want to end it)

I'm definitely requesting 云芊传 | Legend of Two Girls and Mystère à la Tour Eiffel for this year's Festivids! (I'm also thinking about Daughter of Shanghai (1937))

I was particularly excited when I received  a Machineries of Empire vid about Cheris! It's a book vid, so it’s entirely made up of external source.

I'm so impressed by vids for nonvisual sources! I would not even know where to begin — I feel like I rarely even use clips out of context in my vids.

I'd LOVE to see a Mystère à la Tour Eiffel vid at Festivids.

Great choices of requests! I would love to see a Mystère à la Tour Eiffel, I havent really seen Any yet.
Also seconding what Tafadhali said about nonvisual source material videos, they (like this) are very impressive.

I haven't seen any either - I keep meaning to make one for it, but I haven't found the right song yet.

I am overwhelmed by my new bingo card, lol. So many options! Will get out my pen and make a list.

I am probably just going to request what I requested last year for festivids, I haven't really fallen into anything new this year. Though maybe I'll switch up my rpf request, that's always fun.

I've started a Lord of the Rings vid for the Odds Are project/challenge/mission/quest/thing.

I haven't done festivids yet (this is my first year vidding and I'm bad at deadlines), but I might keep an eye on the pinch hits.
