30 Days of Vidding meme - Day 1
Oh, I love meme's! Snagged this from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Day 1 – How did you first get into vidding, and what was the first fandom you vidded? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?
I took a class at school where I go to learn how to make storylines, film, edit & more. I walked into the class not knowing how to do anything, except I already knew photoshop (which we used to make film posters). My teacher introduced me to Adobe Premiere Pro and I learned how to edit a bit in that program. I enjoyed it so much, that I decided to install Adobe Premiere Pro in my computer so I could work on making my own videos. I can honestly say that I've never vidded anything in a free editing program, like WMM.
Anyways, I started off vidding to Musicians that I liked. I ended up making my first fanvid to Avril Lavigne called He Wasn't, which I made around June 2006. I remember being really excited and happy that I made a video. I use to make fansites to Musicians, so it was normal that I got into vidding to Musicians. That's pretty much how I got started. After 2 months of vidding, I started to get into making a ton of movie vids and also Supernatural. I think I made like 50 videos in that same year, lol.. I was totally hooked.

Day 1 – How did you first get into vidding, and what was the first fandom you vidded? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?
2 – Name the fandoms you've vidded in, and how many vids you've made in that fandom, and if you still vid in it.
3 – For each of the fandoms from day two, what were your favorite characters to vid?
4 – Do you have a "muse" character or fandom that speaks to you more than others? Who are they, and why did that character/fandom became your muse?
5 – If you have ever had a character try to push their way into a vid, what did you do about it?
6 – When you vid, do you like vidding a certain kind of male or female archetype? (Credit to Dualbunny for that one!)
7 – Have you ever had a vid (of yours) change your opinion of a character?
8 – Have you vidded with original source? If so, why did you use original source?
9 – Pairings – For each of the fandoms from day two, what are your favorite pairings to vid?
10 – Pairings – Have you ever gone outside your comfort zone tried to vid a pairing you liked, but found you couldn't, or a pairing you didn't like, and found you could?
11 – Genre – do you prefer making certain genres of vid? What kind do you tend to vid the most?
12 – Have you ever attempted an "adaptation" vid of a favorite media source but set in a different fandom? (I.e., attempted to bring the 'feel' or 'mood' of one source to a different fandom, like the zombie Mary Poppins vid)
13 – Do you prefer canon or fanon when you vid (canon shots vs. using shots out of context; AU vs. canon)? Has vidding for a fandom changed the way you see some or even all of the original source material?
14 – Ratings – how high are you comfortable with going? Have you ever vidded higher than you're comfortable with? If you're comfortable with NC-17, have you ever been shocked by finding that the vid you're making is G-rated instead?
15 – Warnings – What do you feel it most important to warn for, and what's the strangest thing you've warned for in a vid?
16 – Summaries – Do you like them or hate them? How do you come up with them, if you use them?
17 – Titles – Do you try to use something different than the song? Why or why not?
18 – Where do you get the most inspiration for your vids from?
19 – When you have vid ideas, do you sit down and start vidding right away, or do you write down the idea for further exploration later?
20 – Do you ever get ideas inspired from other people's stories, vids, or art in the same fandom?
21 – Sequels – Have you ever created a sequel to a vid you made, and if so, why, and if not, how do you feel about sequels?
22 – Have you ever participated in a fest or a Big Bang? If so, write about your favorite experience in relation to one. If not, are there any you've thought about doing? And if not, why not?
23 – When you post, where do you post to? Just your journal? Just an archive? Your own personal site?
24 – Betaing – How many betas do you like to use to make sure there aren't any major flaws in your vid? Do you have a Beta horror story or dream story?
25 – Music – Do you listen to music while you rip source? Do you listen to your vid song immediately before vidding, months before vidding, or just while working on it?
26 – What is the oddest (or funnest) thing you've had to do for a vid?
27 – Where is your favorite place to vid? Where would be your perfect vidding spot?
28 – Have you ever collaborated with anyone else, whether vidding together, or having an artist or writer work on a piece about your vid?
29 – What is your current project or projects?
30 – Do you have a favorite vid you've made? What makes it your favorite? And don't forget to give us a link!
