Over the past two weeks I have gone straight from a professional conference to a wedding to VividCon, lugged my roommate's oversized suitcase across four cities, hung out with innumerable incredibly delightful people, seen an equally large number of really stellar vids, visited at least six used bookstores and bought at least ten Gothic novels.

Now I am home and exhausted, so I'm just going to leave my rushed but heartfelt VividCon premiere here and go to bed:

Title: Clean Light (music by The Mowgli's)

That all sounds good, except for the suitcase, and I hope you can sleep at least metaphysically for a week!

[edit] I like that vid a lot, also the song itself.

The song was a gift from kate_nepveu from a playlist exchange in 2015!

I had to hunt it down; it's been stuck in my head.

Do you hear songs and feel that they fit certain fandoms, or do you have vid ideas and see what music matches, or something completely different?

(In most cases where I have thought of vidding something, it's because either a song reminds me of a movie/show or vice versa. Because I don't vid, however, I don't know if this is akin to the unrealistic ways people who don't write conceive of writing.)

Songs often remind me of movies/shows, but when I really start wanting to vid them, it's usually because I've started linking very specific imagery up to very specific lines such that I have a kind of proto-vid that plays in my head whenever I hear the song.

That sounds extremely useful for when you need to sit down and start putting the vid together.
