Fandom Appreciation Day (Vids) - "Zebra", "Push", "I Don't Care As Long As You Sing"
Title: Zebra
Vidder: Lady Shalott![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
astolat
Character: Detective Ray Koawalski
Why I'm reccing this vid: This is one of my all time favorite vids. It perfectly captures Ray and his dorky, twitchy energy. Watch this vid. It will make you happy.
Title: Push
Vidder:fenlings
Pairing: F/K
Why I'm reccing this vid: You know all those sweet, funny F/K vids out there? This is not one of them. "Push" shows an angry, frustrated Ray. He wants a real, equal partnership with Fraser. But Fraser's always gotta be in charge. Fenlings uses effects and cutting to make this vid one of constant, almost abortive motion. She's telling us a story here, and one that I prefer to think of as an AU. Check it out!
Title: I Don't Care As Long As You Sing
Vidder:sdwolfpup
Pairing: F/V
Why I'm reccing this vid: It's sdwolfpup, so you know that the vid will be technically excellent, with a captivating use of movement and inter-cutting. When I had to pick just one of hers to rec, this vid immediately came to mind. I'm not normally a big F/V fangirl, at least not in a happy ending sense. But this vid makes me a believer.
The licking scenes near the beginning make me laugh out loud. There's a clever juxtaposition of Fraser in a white tux, in a straitjacket, in the tux again. Benny doesn't care - to him it's all the same thing. And Ray gets pulled out of his comfort zone to someplace where he doesn't care either. This vid shows their friendship, their love, withstanding every test. It's a thing of beauty.

Did you decide on a vidding project? I saw your poll but I figured you'd probably settled on something. (For the record, I hope it was an angsty Armando-in-Vegas piece, but I don't want to put any undue pressure, y'know? :-)

Yep, I did indeed go for the Vecchio-in-Vegas vid. It's being a bit technically difficult, with the three different songs and three different TV shows, but that's OK, I persevere.
You have to work hard to make an original dS vid, there are so many good ones out there!

Both of your other recs are also fantastic. Zebra is a classic, especially.
