fancams are videos that follow a celebrity around on stage while they’re performing. originally, these were fan-taken videos but now include any performance where
one celebrity is followed around on stage, usually from
one camera & camera angles don’
t change.
fancams are primarily used on twitter, and are popular mostly on kpop stan twitter.
people use the reply function and add a fancam to the reply. the purpose of using the fancam varies, between wanting views, hoping of gaining fans or annoying
people.
fancams are different from fan edits, which is a compilation of videos created by a fan, sometimes including translations and filters, with background
music.
(a fancam with a filter or different audio from the original is still a fancam, as long as it is
one performance following a celebrity around with no change in camera angles)
