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!

This month’s post is brought to you from vidukon_cardiff.
*waves hello*
Have you ever been to a vid or fan-focused convention? Which one? What was your experience like, etc?

I went to the last VividCon and loved the experience! I wish it hadn't been the last. It's tough for me to make it to cons because of the distance (I'm from Brazil) but I'm planning on going to the next FanWorks (which isn't vid-focused but has a vidding track), and hopefully VidUKon (the distance is practically the same, and I have friends all over the UK!)

I had a blast at VVC but, like AurumCalendula I wish I could've participated in everything. But not only were a ton of things happening at the same time, it was also VERY TIRING to do everything and I'd wind up taking a nap and missing stuff. But it was amazing and I learned a lot, and met a ton of people that I've known by pseudonym for over a decade but had never met irl. I'm hoping to meet everyone again at some point!

That distance does make it difficult!

Meeting people face to face is a great part of the vidding con experience - I still think of certain people as looking like an icon they frequently use (LOL)
