Things We Lost In The Fire has a super angsty Maedhros/Fingon fanvid in my head. The intro’s the boats burning, obviously, and the Nolofinwëan host watching them over the water. The chorus and verses have a lot of happy flashbacks to Valinor and a lot of Nolofinwëans trudging through the snow. The bridge is Fingon hearing that Maedhros has been captured, resolving to do nothing, then saying fuck it and striking out for Angband. He rescues Maedhros and over the final chorus they fly out of Angband. Over the outro, Fingon gradually realizes that his boyfriend’s never going to recover.
#fanvid #Middle Earth #I speak very little Silmarillion #but I feel like this is probably very good if you understand it better #and I still get some pretty sounds and pictures #(also I don’t think I’ve ever seen a fanvid done for a non-visual canon before) #(neat method)
last night i accidentally made this piece of garbage and i can’t stop laughing
This is, literally, the greatest video ever made in the history of the world.

Singer-songwriter Vienna Teng may not seem like an obvious geek culture icon, but she’s found a new audience through an unlikely source: fanvidding.
Fanvids have been around for decades, usually taking the form of clips from TV shows and movies set to a carefully chosen song. The best ones take days or weeks to make and are highly skilled endeavours, using clever editing and song choices to make a point, whether it’s something as simple as “I love Star Trek and so should you” or “Jeff and Annie from Community are in love,” to more complex issues like pointing out the racist subtext in Firefly. There are whole conventions dedicated to vidding, but relatively few fanvids find an audience outside of online fandom. “Starships” is one that went viral, a brilliant and easily accessible celebration of sci-fi spaceships.
You can make a fanvid to any soundtrack, but Vienna Teng’s songs seem to pop up in every major fandom of the past 10 years. In a way her music has spread like a meme, passing from person to person.
When she released an album under a Creative Commons license last year, a group of fanvidders decided to take the whole thing and make it into a multifandom fanvid concept album: Aims. The resulting project includes political commentary, abstract concepts like a vid about “infrastructure,” and more traditionally emotional vids like this uplifting take on Pacific Rim…
#fandom #neat #I’ve only seen Llin’s so far #but they were awesome #the vids and the songs and the combination thereof #I need to listen to more Vienna Teng
#Star Trek #Voyager #oh my god #I will never again be able to hear Voyager crew say ‘some kind of’ without laughing #maybe unable to hear anyone say it
