Okay, because Kitsie and me seem to be near addicted to the videos and trailers idea, I am going to be attempting to make an official Aeipathy trailer to go alongside (not replace) Kitsie's wonderful entry for the Aeipathy Olympics a few months ago... I would really like it to include some of our canons/accepted characters.
So, here's how it's going to work.
If people could please list ANY movie or TV Show that they think would give some cool trailer footage (in general OR of their character in particular) and then post it below.
I will then very responsibility and totally legally purchase each and every one of these films/tv shows and start the amazing task of watching/clipping them all.
I will then make said trailer.
THEN, when I muck it up, I will be passing it to Kitsie to sort out and fix because clearly she is the boss at this.
So, any movies, tv-shows, AMVs, trailers, videos, music, voice overs, ANYTHING AT ALL, that you think might work well for a trailer for Aeipathy PLUS anything that has historical footage of your character (if you want them in the trailer) would be super appreciated below... Post away y'all!
[attr="class","ooc_message"]Sadly there are no videos of Bridget Satterlee really or many cool ones of Dove Cameron without purple hair or no leather.. T-T
-would love it if there were to put me peoples in the video-
[attr="class","ooc_message"]Ian Somerhalder (Kreios) in Marco Polo Katie McGrath (Evras) in King Arthur Milla Jovovich (Nike) in The Winter Queen, Resident Evil
[attr="class","ooc_message"]For Jamie Campbell-Bower, I mostly use shots from Camelot or Anonymous when I'm looking for pics, and Will normally works pretty good as well.
For Ezra Miller, obviously, he's perfect in everything. When I gif with him I mostly use We Need to Talk About Kevin for the archery and sometimes Madame Bovary. It's a bit of struggle cos of historical images but those are the two I use the most. Otherwise, just stuff where he has that kind of haircut.
And for Nariman Malanov, he's a little trickier cos he's a model so doesn't have any movies / shows I can suggest but there is some stuff with him in it on Youtube.
[attr="class","ooc_message"]I'm not sure how much help it will be? But there's a documentary called Pompeii: The Last Day I saw as a kid (don't judge me) that stuck with me all these years. It tells a story about Pompeii, so there's a lot of re-enacting. You could probably use the scenes for Greece too though, nothing really screams specific to me (other than the obvious >.>)
Another source with some good scenes that could be used to establish the setting might be from shows that take place in Ancient Greece? Hercules the Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess are two that come to mind, especially since I beleive both of those shows had other spins offs.
It'd be awesome if you could get some Aaron Jakubenko in there for Dysmas of Nikolaos. His ears are all pointy in The Shannara Chronicles, but you might be able to get some footage of him out of there at just the right angle. He was also in Spartacus: Blood and Sand and The Roman Empire documentary series (2016).
[attr="class","ooc_message"]I wish Thomas and Sam had good stuff to be used for the trailer... but alas they don't. Maybe I haven't searched hard enough. So if anyone can find anything suitable for them would be great! I'll try and find stuff for them as well.
[attr="class","ooc_message"]Selene- Jennifer Morrison: Once upon a Time is pretty much your best bet for anything with her that's even a bit 'romantic'. She doesn't do a whole lot of period pieces, so you a bit SOL with her.
Olena- Eleanor Tomlinson: Poldark has been my go to, but she's also been in lots of fantasy pieces, though none specifically greek or ancient times.
Emilios- Matt Bomer: Again, not a ton of period pieces. Most of the stuff I find is shirtless gifs so I'm not sure what you'll be able to use of him.
Diomedes- Kevin McKidd: He was in HBO's Rome series, with 2 seasons of great footage that should work well. He was also in Kingdom of Heaven
Aimias- Chris Pine: Looks like Outlaw King will have some potentially useable stuff as long as you avoid scenes of him with a crown.
