Historia del Vidding

Vids son videos musicales hechos por fans que involucran el re-corte y re-mezcla de metraje de series de televisión o cine. La historia de vidding precede a YouTube (2003) y a la cultura contemporánea del "remix"; más bien, la práctica de vidding data de los 70s, y es uno de los variados artes que han surgido de Star Trek y subsecuentes fandoms de medios masivos de comunicación.

APPENDIX C

Interview with an anonymous vidder
November 18, 2008

The anonymous subject of this interview has been vidding since 2000. In that time, she has made approximately 30 vids. She has also mentored young vidders, provided "beta" (critique) for dozens of other vidders seeking help with their vids in progress, led panels on vidding at conventions, and curated vid shows.

Could you briefly describe what sets the vidding community apart from other clip-based video creators? Do vidders see themselves as different from many more recent creator communities who have been getting attention on sites like YouTube?
