My favourite video this year (of my own): Proudest of War Baby & I Hear My Voice; rewatch Me And My Girlfriend and Princes Of The Universe most often.

My least favourite video this year: Why Can't We Go On?, an experiment in vidding an ot3 that basically share no screen time. I do think the source is the problem here, rather than any fault of my own, but the end result is just not very good.

Most successful video: State of Seduction (most kudos, most tumblr notes, one of what I would consider my most artistically successful attempts this year)

Video most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: Someone You've Never Met Before. I can't believe there isn't a Norma Rae fandom, this unresolved romantic tension is incredible, love this Jewish socialist manic pixie dream boy.

Most fun video: Princes of the Universe is most fun to watch, State of Seduction was most fun to make.

Video with single sexiest moment: the corset sequence in Me And My Girlfriend. Also everything about State of Seduction because this ship hits me directly in the id.

Biggest vid fail: Prof. Marston & I, Tonya vid concepts that have been stewing since the films premiered at TIFF have still failed to materialise.

Hardest video to make: AHAHAHAHA. Pieces of Johnny Get Your Gun have been in my head since Trigger and Hard Core Logo 2 premiered at TIFF like..... seven/eight years ago. That vid is the reason I started learning vidding. I don't think the finished version is perfect (is a premieres vid ever perfect?) but I'm so happy I was able to get the idea out of my head and out into the world.

Most unintentionally telling video: Unintentionally? Monarch. Totally expected someone would guess the San Junipero one was me, didn't think Monarch particularly had my signatures! I do think between Monarch and I Had A King I'm probably done with Labyrinth for the foreseeable future.

Last year's goals:

- Go to the last vividcon -- Check! This was loads of fun and I wish I'd been able to come to more! Also really helped me feel part of the vidding community, I always sort of conceive of myself as a weird interloper in basically any established social group but people were SO nice, open, and welcoming. Also, Chicago is a cool city and I want to go back when I can spend more time actually checking out the sights.
- Vid more f/f -- Check! Four this year to two last year. Ended up vidding more het than I expected this year though!
- Tonya and Prof. Marston drafts -- Still working on these.

Goals for 2019:

- Try more constructed reality stuff. Did this with Hippie Boyfriend but it was a little clumsy, want to try again.
- Keep submitting vids to cons, even though I don't think attending any is feasible right now
- Try vidding some less conventional sources (book? comic?)
