Issue 2 of Let's Talk About Vids is here!
Thank you so much to everyone who contributed, and thank you so much too to the vidders for creating such incredible vids for us all to write about!
You can read and download the issue HERE.
Update on Issue 2 of Let's Talk About Vids
Afternoon folks!
The deadline for submissions was a couple of days ago, and as things currently stand, there haven't been enough submissions to make an issue.
Maybe this is down to a clash with VidUKon deadlines, maybe it's because of the *gestures* everything, maybe the last issue was too recent and this is going to be more an annual zine, which is all fair enough.
That said, I really appreciate the folks who have submitted, and I'd love to still be able to put something out!
So I'm going to reopen submissions until Sunday 20 April, and I'd love to get a few more quick vid recs (from 1 sentence to 100 words) and discussion prompt responses (1 sentence to a few paragraphs). (Longer pieces also very welcome if you've got 'em but we can have an issue without them!)
Anyway, here's more details on how to submit, give me a shout if you need any other info!
Thank you so much to the folks who have already submitted something!
There's just over a week left to get something into this issue!
Last couple of days to submit something for Issue 2!

Submissions open for Issue 2 of Let's Talk About Vids!
Let's Talk About Vids is a zine for talking about vids - otherwise known as fanvids, AMVs, edits, etc.
It was partially inspired by the regular Anatomy of a Vid panel at the VidUKon convention, in which vid watchers choose a vid they enjoy to analyse in depth.
I felt like there was an appetite for more analysis of vids, more detailed discussion about the artistic process of making vids, and more places to share vid recommendations. This zine is focused more on the artistic side than the technical side of vidding, but of course sometimes the latter will come up as part of the conversation!
The first issue of Let's Talk About Vids is available HERE.
The second issue of Let's Talk About Vids will come out sometime in the next few months. It will be a PDF e-zine!
The content of the zine will be made up of submissions from folks who want to talk about vids! The zine is seeking:
quick vid recommendations, for vids both new and old (from 1 sentence up to 100 words)
responses to a discussion prompt (1 sentence to a few paragraphs)
longer pieces that explore a specific vid in depth, whether a close reading or something else (200-1000 words)
vidders' reflections on their artistic process for a specific vid they made (200-1000 words)
longer pieces that explore a specific vidshow in depth, either by the VJ or by someone else (200-1000 words)
If you have an idea for something else not listed here, get in touch! Also these word counts are guidelines to give a rough idea for folks who prefer to have parameters, definitely not a hard and fast rule.
Before you make your submission, a couple of things to note:
1) If you are writing an in-depth piece about a specific vid or vidshow, please do your best to get in touch with the vidder or VJ to ensure they're comfortable with it first.
2) While this zine is a space to talk in detail about vids, right now I'm not up for hosting and moderating conversations about what vids got wrong or could have done better. Submissions should be focused on what you think the vid/vidshow does well, what is interesting to you about it, and how it gets its point across.
3) There's no requirement for any particular level of: formality/structure, vidding experience/knowledge, spelling/grammar, etc - if you've got something to say about vids, say it in whatever way works for you! I may lightly edit for spelling and grammar if needed.
4) You can submit ONE longer piece, ONE discussion prompt response, and UP TO THREE quick recs.
You can make submissions HERE until 30 March.
Last day folks!
Let's Talk About Vids - Issue 2 - Discussion Prompt
I'm trying something extra for Issue 2 - a discussion prompt for vidders and vid-watchers to respond to! If people enjoy this, in the future I'll open it up for people to submit their own prompts.
This issue's prompt is:
Tell us about a specific technique/device/trick you enjoy either using or seeing in vids!
For example, I really like when vids:
use a long unbroken clip from the source, to highlight an important moment or let the viewer revel in it, like the way this vid gives plenty of space for the intense eye contact between Phryne and Jack.
interpret a certain lyric literally for emphasis or to make a specific point, like the way this vid uses the lyrics "things'll be brighter" both literally and metaphorically to refer to the lights being fixed AND to things feeling easier and more hopeful, making a connection between the practical and the emotional.
use different transitions between clips to create different moods, like this vid where I moved from fades to black in an earlier section to create a jarring, unsettled feeling, into crossfades later to emphasise connections beginning to form and a more comfortable vibe.
Word count for this is anything from a sentence to several paragraphs!
You can submit your responses at the main submission form until 30 March.
Last weekend to get your prompt responses in!
