[livejournal.com profile] vividcon is looking for suggestions for themed vid shows! More specifically, we, your exalted VJs, are looking for suggestions for our themed vid show, The Bechdel Test.

Here's the official blurb:

In 1985 in the comic strip Dykes To Watch Out For, Alison Bechdel gave us this test to evaluate gender equality in a movie: 1) it has to have at least two women in it who 2) talk to each other about 3) something other than a man. This vid show is about the spirit of the Bechdel Test, showcasing vids about two or more women interacting and relating with each other, in ways that don't have anything to do with men. Femslash optional.


This is awesome, right? Girls, girls, girls! We are all about the ladies! We want your mother-daughter, sister-sister, student-teacher, best buds, archenemies, lesbian lovers vids!

We welcome all suggestions! We welcome vids you've seen, vids you've made, vids you are inspired to make just for us! We would really really love to see that, actually, to see people making more vids about women for this show, and for the celebration of women in fandom. What women in your fandom need your loving vidding attention? Would you, could you, premiere a vid with us?

To suggest a vid, go here: http://www.vividcon.com/suggest.cgi

Important dates to know:
--ETA: April 23rd date correction!/ETA: suggestions end! So run go suggest stuff now!
--June 1st: all themed show vids are due, so if you're gonna make one for us, this is when you have to turn it in!

Go! Suggest! Vid! http://www.vividcon.com/suggest.cgi

Vids:

  • Stop the world, Chuck wants to get off--Club Vivid (May 1)

  • the Uther vid with [personal profile] ysobel (June 26--hey, I'm prioritizing my gf independent of deadlines here)

  • the Hustle vid [personal profile] echan is making on my system--Club Vivid (May 1)

  • Dollhouse vid (June 1 if for bechdel)

  • I Remember You, for the meta show (June 1 if for meta show)

  • Five years later, I return with the broken Highlander vid! (June 26)

  • the Slings & Arrows vid [personal profile] traykor is making that I'm *handwave* helping with (June 26)

  • Easter Egg for the House of Torres DVD (Aug 10)



A second list: vids that have not yet fallen off the radar, but...

  • I should probably watch more of the silent films before I make a judgement call on the viability of the Taltos vid

  • co-vid Dexter with [personal profile] niqaeli

  • Corporate Headquarters*

  • Insula Atlantica Mythica*

  • Rock Star

  • House of Wolves*

  • Moon Song*

  • Bashir, Julian Bashir

  • Mirrormask vid



And in a separate prioritization hierarchy unrelated to vidding, writing prompts:
  • for [livejournal.com profile] verstehen, Chuck in the chemical fog

  • for [livejournal.com profile] grey_bard, probably going to be Methos re: Barrayar

  • for [livejournal.com profile] jedinic, Denny keeps chasing skirt on the honeymoon. Also, there might be bondage.

--and I have to work now, so I'll finish that list later!
