Battlestar Galactica Fanvid Recs

You know, why not? As long as I'm thinking about BSG fanvids, let's just do a big post of them. Being able to make nice convenient lists of favorite things is half the reason I created this journal, after all!

BSG is one of my absolute favorite vid fandoms. It caught the attention of so many amazingly talented vidders back in the day! Even now, more than a decade and several major fannish obsessions after it finished airing, it's one of the fandoms from which I have the most vids saved.

Kara "Starbuck" Thrace was my favorite character and Kara/Lee my favorite ship (FML, little did I know the pain I was going to be in for when I first thought they were cute together) so these recs are going to be heavy on them, but I have some general recs and recs for other characters and ships, too.

⚠ these vids may contain spoilers, canon-typical violence, canon-typical sex and sexual assault, blood, major character death, and potential visual triggers such as rapid cuts and flashing lights (lots of flashing lights)

None of these vids have any voiceovers or sound clips from the source material.

Same Song, Different Fandom

I watch fanvids for a lot more fandoms than I read fanfic for, and one of the things I like to do is compare how vidders from different fandoms use the same song. Sometimes it's quite similar; other times amazingly different. See the two Umbrella vids below for an especially diametrically opposite approach!

I thought it might be fun to make a little list of vids I know from different fandoms that are set to the same song. This is by no means a complete list of vids for each song, let alone of songs that have vids from multiple fandoms! However, these are all vids I enjoyed enough to rec, and some are recent or even all-time favorites. It's going to be heavy on Cdrama fandoms since they're what I'm watching the most right now.

⚠ vids may contain spoilers, canon-typical violence and blood, major character death, and other content warnings, as well as potential visual triggers such as rapid or stutter cuts and flashing lights. If you're familiar with the canon, you'll have a pretty good idea of potential warnings, and if you want to watch fandom-blind, feel free to ask and I can provide specifics.
