Dear Festividder
Hi! I'm very thrilled about the thought that you're making a vid just for meeee. :D If you want a bit of guidance, I've provided some in my requests, but first and foremost I want you to feel free to have fun and vid to your strengths!
I can reassure you straight off that I'm very easy to please: I like a quite broad range of vids both in type and style, and adhere to the "anything's fine if it's right for the vid" school of thought when it comes to music. (If you want to get an idea of my general music taste anyway, it's, uh, kind of ridiculously easy to do so, though.) Instrumental vids would be 100% welcome; I'm basically terrible at picking up lyrics on first (or even fifth) listen anyway, and listen to and love a lot of stuff with no vocals.
My requests from the sign-up form are pasted below (with additional visual reference):
Adventures in Babysitting (2016) (safety)
Jenny & Lola: I TOTALLY SHIP IT. This movie was also so much fun, though, so I'd be just as thrilled with a gen shenanigans vid as a ship vid. :D
BrainDead (TV 2016)
Oh god, I loved every single thing this show chose to be. Political satire with bonus alien invasion wackiness: clearly a hole that desperately needed filling in my life.
My favourite parts of it were definitely the Laurel & Rochelle & Gustav vs. the alien bug invasion ones; other things I loved a lot were all the political finagling and the frequent absurdity, and I was genuinely charmed by Laurel and Gareth.
(Also, not gonna lie, I'd kinda love to see a BrainDead vid to You Might Think. It would be such an egregiously obvious song choice that it goes right past side eye-worthy and loops all the way back around to awesome. :D)
Hap & Leonard
I love Leonard's crabby, cynical, and justifiably angry ass, and would love a vid full of the very excellent faces he makes in response to everything the world (and the plot with all its ridiculous tribulations) throws at him.
I also love his and Hap's friendship a lot, if that's something you'd like to focus on!
Harvey Beaks
CARTOON OF MY HEART. It's so ridiculously charming that I barely know what to do with myself sometimes. <3
I adore the fact that this show stars an exceedingly polite, tidy, and rule-abiding good kid. Harvey is such a square, and I love every second of it.
I also love basically every other character on the show, and the world, and the gorgeous, gorgeous backdrops, and the pervasive theme of the magic of childhood.
Level Up (TV)
To steal the wording from my previous sign-up: Delightful dorks being dorks and saving the day! I'm extremely fond of all of the main four, so anything teamy focusing on their friendship/adventures/DELIGHTFUL DORKINESS would be fantastic.
Spooksville
ALL I NEED FROM A SPOOKSVILLE VID IS SALLY WILCOX'S PERPETUALLY UNIMPRESSED FACE. She (and that marvellous perpetually unimpressed face of hers) was my hands-down favourite thing about the show.
I'd prefer not to have a shippy focus (...well, unless what your heart led you to vid was Sally making her unimpressed faces at Anne; that, ahem, I could be totally down with), but that one caveat aside, I'd be happy with absolutely anything you may choose to vid!
Sunless Sea
The Unterzee is so damn pretty, so a lot of scenery porn (so to speak) would be extremely welcome. Beside that, an exploration of the myriad misfortunes that the game can visit upon you would probably be thing I'd be most into. :D
Or, you know, you could focus on all the Lovecraftian horror that the world is rife with, because it's bloody awesome.
Please avoid spoilers for any long-term or later-game quests, though; I haven't played enough yet to have run through more than a few of them.
You Me Her
This show already had me at "canon poly romcom", and then the romance was utterly charming and engaging, to boot! It's a very, very long time since I've been so invested in the development of a canon relationship as I was with this show. <3
Beside the many delights of the Trakaskys' and Izzy's whirlwind affair, another thing I loved about this show was Izzy and Nina's friendship: it was a genuinely wonderful one.
