Time To Change?

I have always required that all vids listed here be downloadable and permanently hosted.  I stll think that should be the case.  Another concern I’ve had is with streaming video.  It takes a pretty good computer and connection to be able to actually watch a vid on YouTube without having to wait for buffering.  Furthermore, YouTube compresses even the most perfect of vids into its own format, many times to the detriment of the quality of the vid.

That said, should we lift the rule about streaming video and allow vids hosted at YouTube, Imeem, Vimeo (which is actually quite good), etc.?

Email me or leave a comment via this post or the “Submissions” form.

Thanks!

Dizzifying!

Several new recs added today!

Two Doctor Who vids, each very heavy on effects were recommended by Nikole. The vidders are hollywoodgrrl and jagwriter78 and both vids are Tenth Doctor. Thanks!

AJ Johnson and Q each recommended AJ’s (also heavy on effects) Star Wars vid, Legacy. I’ve nearly given up on trying to learn from AJ. I’ve come to realize that he is one of a kind and a technical genius. Great job!

Becca84 recommended a different kind of vid. The Heroes vid by here’s luck is a slower, story based ensemble vid that relies on clip choice and story. Lovely vid!
