Summary: "Silent Fandoms" might not be a vid, because it doesn't entirely follow the form. This behind the scenes video isn't a vid, because it's comprised of excerpts from festivid gifts that never existed. Everything was made specifically for use in "Silent Fandoms". Fandom/recipient pairings were largely taken from this list: http://www.festivids.net/festivids/sign-up/history. Including them here should be considered a behind the scenes extra, not an actual vid or gift proper, though I hope those who recieved snippets find some measure of joy in them.
Content notes: Most of these fandoms I've never actually watched and as such the song choices (when songs are used) are largely based on wikipedia, bad puns, and guesses. Footage is typically whatever trailer I could find on YouTube. The quality, therefore, ranges widely. I tried to avoid imagery that obviously contained sexual violence, but I can't be 100% positive, as I'm not familiar with most of these fandoms. Like "Silent Fandoms" there is Hollywood-style violence, NSFW sex & nudity, and physical triggers. Typos in credits will be fixed by reveals.
