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 have never been to a vidding convention. I am jealous of everyone who doesn't live at the bottom of the world!

I have been to sf cons, one with a vid show when I wasn't expecting it, one that was meant to have something on vidding, but which got cancelled, so some of us hung out in the hall and watched vids on our phones. Possibly I should pay more attention to the local anime con, because I did see they had an AMV contest this year. But I looked at the rules and they had to be PG-13 so I didn't think I could enter. (And now I am working on an AMV about my love for traumatic and violent anime.)

I am hoping some vid people will come to WorldCon when it is NZ next year, and we can hang out then!

Doing a side-meetup thing at a bigger scifi con like WorldCon is a good idea. There are a group of us that go to a local scifi convention every year just as a way to have something on the calendar to get together and be nerds.

I'm definitely hoping to go to the Worldcon in New Zealand! I will be at the Dublin Worldcon this summer also (sadly missing Fanworks Con for it)
