Bandaid (Parks and Recreation)

Total Vids: 14! (my highest I think)

My favourite video this year (of my own):
Probably Give Me Everything because the end result matched up the most with what I saw in my head and it was so much fun to vid my favorite character and all her wonderful women friends. I also really love Counting Stars because I was able to vid my current most loved character in Jaime and I was able to express so many of my feelings with one of my favorite songs.

My least favourite video this year:
In general I liked all my vids this year but if I had to pick one probably For the Girl Who Has Everything where the song didn't work for me quite as much as when I first heard it and I wasn't quite as in love with the characters as I was with my other vids (plus the show is a bit hard to vid).

Most successful video
I was really happy that Give Me Everything got so much Festivids love. Glad to see so much Parks and Recreation love out there! I was also pleased that people liked Past the Feeling at Vividcon.

Video most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion:
I can't really complain about any of the feedback I got but I suppose the Bunheads and The Wire vids got the least in part because of the small fandom status.

Most fun video:
I had fun making a lot of my vids (especially Circle of Life, Make a New Dance Up and Counting Stars) but overall I'll give it to Bandaid because it was filled with so much cute girls in love and a relatively easy process. What I've learned this year is I most love vidding my favorite characters and ships with a deep emotional connection.

Video with single sexiest moment:
A tie between Beautiful in Los Angeles and Make a New Dance Up with the taking off clothes and kissing :) Mmmm I love it!

Biggest vid fail:
Not starting the OC clipping in May which made June a hellish process of clipping and vidding all the time. In general, leaving vids halfway finished and then scrambling to make deadlines. There was also a few vids I wanted to make that I never did.

Hardest video to make:
Past the Feeling was different than I usually did and I definitely struggled with trying something new. But it turned out pretty well so I'm glad about that.

Most unintentionally telling video:
I don't know about unintentional but Counting Stars contained a lot of myself in it.

For 2013:
I still have a ton of Festivids to make and I have no idea how many I'm going to finish with my other goals for the new year. I want to make an Adam/Blake vid preferably for Escapade but clipping is tough for that so we'll see. I have a TON of Game of Throne vids I want to make for Vividcon and before so we'll see how many of those I'll get done. I have a couple big vids I'd like to make but I'm unsure about time so we'll see. There's a couple new techniques and skills I want to add to my toolbox so I'm hoping to continue to push myself while still giving myself plenty of room to make fun vids about my favorite ships.
