Vidding Chatter

[colls]

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?

There's definitely something to be said for diving right in. :)

I've not actually vidded since then either, but am clipping a 4 season TV show which I suppose can count. What video games are distracting you? doesn't really need game recs but can't resist

Clipping 4 seasons of TV definitely counts! That's a lot of source to go through.

I am currently playing Zanki Zero, which is like a survival adventure game involving human clones, the end of the world, and many many sleepovers with your friends. I like it a lot but it is a timesuck!
