And I love when I have a good excuse to reblog one of my #fanvids Here is the one about the three potential lovers of our spunky main character.

I liked what they said in the podcast about how both the leads in the final romance are red flags, and are probably the villain in someone else's story.

It is so cool to see characters who are varied enough that that can be true for them.

Unsure why but Marvels: Agents of Shield seems to have been rediscovered by a whole new generation of fans with video editing capability.

The new crop of fresh fanvids are delightful to see - even if I find some of the parings baffling.

(I never, ever liked Ward)

"Fanvids where the audio is an entire song are allowed, so long as you have added or remixed a substantial number of visuals to accompany the song such that the video becomes a transformative work."

Good!

"For example, simply posting the text of the song's lyrics to accompany the song would not be considered transformative. A video consisting of an entire song accompanied by two or three long, unedited clips from a movie would also not be considered a transformative work."

Ok.

#fanvids " If the creator responds and gives you permission, then you're good to go. If they refuse or do not respond, then you do not have their permission and you may not post the work."

phew! I was really concerned for a minute.

I found communities that will take off air TV #videocassette recordings with commercials. They also love newscasts, PBS pledge drives, you name it as long as it was recorded off air.
