INTERVIEW #10 -- Chaeche!
Original poster: snarrymod
Your Name (and lj name if different): chaeche (vidding name = akemi42)
Your Team: Angst
1. What made you decide on Team Angst?
Let's face it; angst is the only choice for the vidders. There isn't exactly a whole lot of "romance" footage of Harry and Severus in the films.
2. Which HP character is your favourite to create in art?
I JUST started doing videos. In fact, I consider my first two videos to be "training" for the Games. I even have a training injury (repetitive stress from mouse overexertion).
So the answer to the question: I have to admit that my favorite character to do vidding with is Harry. There's a lot to work with in terms of footage and he's...welll...Harry! *is shocked that my answer isn't Snape*
3. Has your experience in fandom changed the way you do art? How?
I did not do video (or podcasting) before fandom so I suppose one could say I had no artistic contribution the world before fandom. I have a reputation for drawing really ridiculous cartoons during meetings at work, but I don't think that counts as "art."
4. Do you prefer drawing your own scenarios, or drawing scenes from canon?
I will adapt this question to vidding...both! I love vidding as a medium because you can take scenes from canon and manipulate them to be your own scenarios.
5. What made you decide to draw fanart the first time? Which fandom was it?
Harry Potter motivated me to buy a copy of Sony Vegas Movie Studio and ask the vidders on my flist to teach me the basics. I had been a major HP video fan for a while so I knew it was only a matter of time before I made one. (Yes, I was the one screaming and cheering along to "The Snarry Song" during the video presentation at Lumos)
6. Who is your favourite fandom artist?
My favorite vidder is jaddziadax. I think her images are incredibly high quality and her editing skills are amazing. I rec her "Lost in a Dream" video to anyone who hasn't seen it.
7. Have you ever been inspired to draw fanart for a fanfiction work? Why?
My first video was inspired by a Snart fic I read that was written by elanor_isolda. Once I thought about putting a shot of Snape incinerating that snake next to Lockhart being pushed into that tunnel that leads to the "Chamber of Secrets," I just couldn't resist.
8. What are your favourite mediums to work with?
Video and podcasting. Outside fandom, I have dabbled in painting and photography.
9. Do you have a piece of art (fandom or original) you've done that you are most proud of? Would you link it here for us?
I have only done 2 videos. I am most proud of this one: http://www.savefile.com/projects/100149
10. Are you excited about the Snarry Games?
In a word, yes. I think my fellow Snapecasters will hex me if I mention it one more time.
Thank you, chaeche!
