Hello vidders!!
Welcome to the monthly(-ish) chatter post. 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!

Recently a lot of my DW and twitter feed have been discussing the Plotters vs. Pantsers approach to writing and it made me think about how I approach vidding. Sometimes I plan things out and sometimes I fly by the seat of my pants.

There are some discussion and examples of storyboards on this LJ post (from 2010... wow) Workshop: I Make Images Move With The Music

Are you a vidding plotter or a pantser?
If you use storyboards, how do you approach them? Are they vague or detailed, handwritten or a google doc?

For me it varies. I mostly have a rough outline in my head with a few clips being definitely planned out. Though it's always possible that I will change my mind while vidding. Sometimes I stumble across a new perfect clip while clipping and sometimes my original choice does not really work after all.

There are also some vids that I want to make for years and it takes me forever to get started and then there are those where I suddenly have an idea and a day later I have a first draft.

Sometimes I just want a certain vid to exist but I have no idea how to do it and in these cases I have to start putting stuff on the timeline and see if it leads anywhere.
