Things I like to vid: Honestly I like it all - shippy, ensemble, character study, friendship, humor, angst, sexy, scary, meta/critical, I'm happy to do whatever. I'm also open to doing a multi-fandom vid depending on what it is
Other preferences (genres/pairings/music/etc): Music-wise, I like something with good lyrics and tend to go for more up-tempo stuff, but am open to slow vids. Always open to specific music requests. I've vidded lots of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend songs and would love to do more.
Things I can't vid: I can't think of much content-wise that I'm unwilling to vid, especially from the fandoms I listed. Style-wise the only thing I can think of is that I don't like to include dialogue over lyrics, but am open to using dialogue during intros, outros, and instrumental breaks. I guess I also tend to avoid vidding to instrumental music, though I am convincible
Where you can find samples of my vids: AO3 or Youtube
Other things bidders might want to consider: I co-vid frequently with my sibling Tafadhali and would be happy to discuss making something with them if that was of interest!
