As fan works and practices disseminate across contemporary media culture, they are increasingly finding their way into college classrooms. From courses on digital culture to college writing, educators are incorporating do-it-yourself (DIY) digital practices into their pedagogies. One such practice is vidding, “a grassroots art form in which fans reedit television or film into music videos” (Coppa, 2011, p. 123). Called “fanvids” or “vids” by practitioners, these are not your standard MTV music videos. Vids explore themes related to the source material(s) they remix and rework. In a vid, the juxtaposition of moving images and music, as well as careful sequencing, cutting, and pattern construction, work together to communicate the vidder’s messages.
