vid recs?

[ratcreature]

I don't watch a lot of vids, and as a result I never even know how to effectively look for some in the instances when I want to watch some new ones.

I'm in the mood for visually fast paced vids, not necessarily action vids, though I do like those a lot, however generally I'm not that fond of vids meant for dancing or vids to dance music. Also, while I enjoy humor as much as anyone, the vids I love most are more on the drama or even angsty side of things, with a bit of pathos even. Just right now not slow pathos, but fast.

Compared to fic I really lack the analytic skill and vocabulary to describe what I'm looking for... :( But an example for the kind of vid I mean would be barkley's Numb3rs vid Reach For the Sky.

Have you watched any vids like that recently? (Or not so recently, I really watch very few.) The fandoms I'd most appreciate for this would be MCU, Star Wars, Star Trek, XMFC, Pacific Rim or even Check Please, since I recently learned from dine's rec of this cool, if short vid by helorific that fans vid in that fandom as well.

Okay, in MCU I want to rec Hey Ho by Thuvia ptarth, Freedom Ride by ? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yh5sSmxWNdE), Bad Romance by Mithorien, um... Innerbrat's U.S. https://vimeo.com/125828115, Problem, by talitha78 (look for the remaster)

Some of these are probably old enough you've seen them, but hopefully one or two?

[ratcreature]

Thanks! I've seen the Hey Ho, U.S. and Problem, but not the other two.Do you have a link for Bad Romance by Mithorien? Google isn't helpful and I can't find anyone by that name here, on LJ, AO3, or Tumblr,

Apparently I misspelled her name, which is why you can't find it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5Dc9Fuh_yJ8

Medium-fast-paced vids are my favorite, and a lot of the ones I make are like that. :D I realize that self-reccing is a bit déclassé, but perhaps Landsailor (Star Wars), Shut Up and Dance (Agent Carter), or Long Live (Flash) might be the kind of thing you're looking for?
