I know what you mean about problematic issues in sources.
For what it's worth, I don't think vidding always has to be overtly political. I think as long as we don't always make vids that gloss over problems, it's fine to make some that do and focus on what we loved.
Both reactions are valid, right? We can love something even while seeing its flaws. We never react just one way to texts. So why should our vids?
Finding the balance is what I'm still struggling with. I don't think I have it right, yet. And with something like BAT, which won't be vidded that often, it does mean the issues are less likely to be vidded by someone else.
I haven't come up with a good solution to music yet; I mostly find it by accident.
There was a panel on music choice at the con, wasn't there? What did people say?
