Notes: There's a long and labored version of making this vid that I won't really bother you with too much. Basically I made the vid once (for [personal profile] nakedbee  in exchange for my sweet Number 6 jacket for Club Vivid two years ago). I had no intention of having a point of any kind. Except I did accidentallyhave a point and I stuck a dance break in the middle of it. So I recut the song, reordered my clips, and offered it up for [personal profile] thirdblindmouse to use in her Artificial Life show at Vividcon.

Much thanks to elipie, kuwdora, echan, shati, and thirdblindmouse for their encouragement and beta work.

Robots? Robots!

I'm making super-multisource vid about robots that will show at Vividcon this year in the Artificial Life vidshow. I've gathered... quite the collection of sources, but I know there are some areas where I'm not particularly savvy -- like a lot of television, anime, and videogames.

Additionally, not all of the robots that I have source for will make the final vid, so I'm trying to prioritize as best I can.

Are there any robots that would give you great joy to see in such a vid? Leave me a comment!

To get even more specific, here are some areas where I need help:

Behind a cut in case anybody cares about vid spoilers )

For the purposes of my vid, robots are artificial, inorganic or partially inorganic beings with artificial intelligence (sentient or semi-sentient). No piloted mech suits, remote-controlled 'bots, or human brains in robot bodies. Human-form Cylons are just outside the scope of my vid, as are the nanobots from Big Hero 6. However, The Terminator counts, as do regular cylons, and Baymax. I may include cybermen just to contradict myself, but not Daleks.
