As usual, I go off of release date rather than when I made/finished it:

February (Festivids reveals):
White Telephone (Halloween / Halloween H20)
Moves Like Yaweh (Prince of Egypt)

August (Vividcon):
Electric Avenue (Robots)
Right Round (Classic Hollywood Serials)
Madhouse (Psychonauts)

Misc Related Works:
Leonard Nimoy Tribute (Escapade/KiSCon)
End of the World remaster

Depending on how you count it, that's either five or seven works. In either case, it's my least productive year since 2011. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

My favorite video this year (of my own):

Hrm. I really want to say Right Round, but there are some flaws that come from it being a rushed product that I can't really get past. So, probably White Telephone. It's everything I ever wanted to say about Laurie Strode (nearly).

My least favorite video this year:

Electric Avenue, which I put in months and months of hard work and clipping into and it just never came out the way I hoped it would. Surprisingly, it was probably my most popular vid coming out of Vividcon.

Most successful video:

Moves Like Yaweh, hands down. People ate it up. It's the kind of twisted vidding I don't do nearly often enough.

Video most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion:

None. They were all appreciated as much as (or more than) they deserved.

Most fun video:

A tie between Moves Like Yaweh and Right Round.

Video with single sexiest moment:

Moves Like Yaweh has a ton of weirdly sexual moments.

Biggest vid fail:

A ton of unfinished and possibly abandoned vid projects still lurking on my hard drive.

Hardest video to make:

Electric Avenue. I made it over the course of a year and I eventually grew to kind of hate robots at the end (not a problem anymore). I had strange, specific definitions of what kind of robots I would use. I was working off of a song that I realized too late was not the Right Song, but I didn't have anything better to replace it with... It was a clusterfuck and not a happy memory.

Most unintentionally telling video:

I realized only after it was finished and uploaded that White Telephone was essentially a remake of All the Rowboats in a different fandom. I worry I only have one kind of dramatic character study vid up my sleeve.

Things I Learned This Year:

It is totally cool to have a down year. Wait, no, that's the thing I've been *trying* to learn and not doing a very good job with. 

For 2016:
I would like to be just a smidge more prolific in the coming year and vidding more consistently throughout. Also, I want to make another video game vid at some point.
