Type of fanwork: Video
Fandom(s): Buffyverse; Leverage; Any fandom I've created for before
Highest rating: E
Minimum Bid: $15

Length/scope: $15 minimum for a standalone film or franchise with 4 movies, $25 minimum for a TV series and longer franchises
Special interests (what is this?): Aro/ace characters, Canonically trans or nonbinary chars, F/F ships, Nonwhite characters' racial or cultural experiences

Fanwork Details:
One fanvid (5 minutes long) using clips from the canonical fandom source set to music

Characters/pairings of interest:
For Buffy: I am open to an ensemble vid or most characters and pairings. Character-wise, I'm most interested in Buffy, Faith, Willow, Tara, Spike, Giles, Cordelia, Oz, and Dawn. My favorite pairings are Buffy/Faith, Buffy/Spike, and Willow/Tara. I haven't seen all of Angel and so am only open to vidding Buffy!

For Leverage: I am open to an ensemble vid or most characters. Very into Parker/Hardison/Eliot, dying to make a Sophie vid, and a fan of Leverage Redemption as well as the original series (especially Brianna).

For the "any other" option — let me know what you're thinking! I've vidded over 100 sources.

Subjects/theme/tropes of interest:
I enjoy making vids about people and their dynamics—ships, friendship, family, complicated relationships. I like making vids about queer themes and about female characters or about gender identity. I also like making meta vids about tropes, including ones to comedy songs (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Lonely Island, etc.) I'm also interested in vidding side characters!

Unwilling to address:
For Buffy: Buffy/Riley, Buffy/Giles For Leverage: Something Nate or Nate/Sophie-centric, though I'm happy to include him in an ensemble vid

Otherwise, I am comfortable vidding all content in the sources offered. The one source in my "Any fandom I've created in before" list that I would prefer not to vid is Harry Potter.

Other notes:
My previous fandoms list is extensive, so here are some favorites from the list:

• Horror films/franchises (Chucky, Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream, Stephen King)
  
• Miyazaki movies
  
• Revolutionary Girl Utena
  
• Dimension 20
  
• 9-1-1
  
• Steven Universe
  
• Sense8

If I have only vidded a source in the context of a massive multifandom project, please double check with me before requesting it. There are a few sources I've included in those projects that I haven't watched and might need a heads up before considering.

I work best when given flexibility around song choice, because it's important to me to pick something that clicks for me, but I welcome song suggestions. If you have one specific vision for a vid, it would be best to check in before bidding.
