Call for Vids!

[cosmic_llin]

So it looks like I’m making a Pride-themed vidshow for Vidukon, the awesome vidding convention happening in Cardiff in June!

I’m looking for suggestions for vids to include - I need vids that explore queer/LGBTIA/GSM identities and relationships of all kinds.

I’d love any and all suggestions, especially things that are harder to find (in both media generally and vids) - trans characters, asexual characters, people that aren’t two pretty white dudes (although if you know of something with two pretty white dudes that would be a good fit, do please suggest that too!).

Any ideas?

There's probably quite a lot of crossover with the queer vidshow I ran over at Vividcon a few years ago, and I got lots of recs in the comments, and the vidshow is here.

I think I said this in person, but thanks again for doing so much of my legwork for me. ;D

I'm not one to rec my own vids but this is a particular interest of mine so I'll just point out the ones I've made: Beautiful in Los Angeles (The LA Complex), Because I'm Awesome (Glee), Final Round (Pariah), Just Dance (Queer as Folk), Make a New Dance Up (Orange is the New Black), Raise Your Glass (Glee) and Volcano (Queer as Folk). Beautiful in Los Angeles and Final Round both feature African Americans.

If you're looking for vids that have trans characters, Orange is the New Black has a particularly great character in Sophia and there's also Unique from Glee (both are POC) as well as Alexis from Ugly Betty. Maybe you can find some good vids on Youtube or something like that? I'd love to see them!

Ooh, a couple of those had already made it onto my longlist! Thank you! :)

(And thanks for the character suggestions, I've been searching in vain for a Sophia vid but I hadn't thought of Unique and Alexis!)
