Welcome to Leverage Fan Media!

This is the source for Leverage Fans to find Leverage fanfiction, Fan videos, Fan pictures, a Fan Forum, and eventually a Fan Wiki (since TNT’s Wiki is being shut down). This home page will have a weekly update posted that includes a list of links for new fiction, pictures, and videos uploaded each week.

Keep in mind that you have to have three separate logons – fanfiction, fanvideos/fanpics, and fan forum – to participate in all three. If you want to have different screen names for each, that’s fine. We know a lot of people go by various different names on fanfiction vs. forums vs. video sites. Please read the rules on each different site before you start posting. If we change any of the rules, we’ll post it here.

Our twitter LeverageFans will post updates to the page (including the weekly fiction, art, and video update lists). So please follow us there and spread the word!

Your admins,
Ali Kat and Naddy

I’m extending the nomination period since we don’t have that many nominations and I haven’t been able to promote the contest as much due to the Angels for Aldis Auction. Please nominate your favorite videos!

 

I’m SO sorry I’m late on posting this. With the Angels for Aldis Auction going on and school & work, I just got swamped. Anyway, without further ado!

I’m working on getting the banners ready for you guys. SORRY once again for the delays.

Okay Grifters! Its time to nominate all your favorite fanvideos for our beloved Leverage. Now this is a contest, not a challenge so while you may make videos to fit into categories before the final nomination date, it includes EXISTING fanvideos already posted over the years too.

 

• Best Team Video
• Best Video – The Guys (non-romantic)- can include other men besides Nate, Eliot, and Hardison
• Best Video – The Ladies (non-romantic) – can include other ladies besides Parker and Sophie
• Best Video - ‘Team Awesome’/OT3 (Parker/Hardison/Eliot) Video

• Best Storytelling – All videos

If the video only has 1-3 clips from another fandom included in a Leverage video, then it can be nominated in other categories. See actor in multi-fandom video for more than Leverage and another fandom)
• Best Episode Specific Video
• Best Humor Video
• Best Dramatic/Angst Video
• Best ‘Feel Good’ Video

These are for all the actor specific videos. The key here is fandom though. It can include convention and concert footage but the majority should be a TV Show or movie with the actor.

For example: You can create a Christian Kane video that includes Leverage, Hide, and Angel with a few live concert shots in it but a video of one of his songs in concert would not be allowed.

• Best Christian Kane Multi-Fandom Videos
• Best Aldis Hodge Multi-Fandom Videos
• Best Gina Bellman Multi-Fandom Videos
• Best Beth Riesgraf Multi-Fandom Videos
• Best Tim Hutton Multi-Fandom Videos
