Dear Equinox Vidder - Spring Equinox 2020
Mar. 2nd, 2020 11:00 pmHi ! Thank you so much for making me a vid. I can't wait to see what you come up with. Above all, I hope you have fun with it.
Here's an overview of my requests :
I also really enjoy how much fan engagement these games generated (and still generate). So feel free to use footage from fan made stuff, from mods (Portal Stories : Mel, Aperture Tag, the community test chambers) to the Portal musical (see also below) or anything like that.
Submachine (Video Game)
(the low res version of the game can be played for free here and here's a walkthrough for most of the series)
This game is a point and click, and I'm aware that it would be pretty hard to make an engaging vid from this kind of source. But I loved playing it so much - it's wonderfully made with gorgeous art and atmospheric music, the puzzles are nicely done, and as you go through the series, the scenario develops and you're wondering about the mystery of it all.
Forestia (Video Game)
Ok, this is pretty obscure, sorry about that. This was one of the only PC games I ever played as a kid, and so my nostalgia is super strong. My 8 year old self played all the the levels so many times. Except for the "Fire Mountain" part, which creeped me the hell out. You can check it out here on Youtube in all of its Windows 98 glory.
Check Please! (Comic)
(here on tumblr)
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not particularly a person who is sports-inclined, and especially not about hockey. But this awesome comic made me care about this fictional hockey team (well, teams, more like) and all the great characters in it. I love Bitty and Jack and their epic love story, of course, but I also would welcome a vid about other characters like Shitty or Lardo, or an ensemble vid. Disclaimer that I haven't yet caught up with Year Four, but I should be up to speed again soon.
Portal 2 : the (Unauthorized) Musical [Safety]
As I said above, I'm totally obsessed with all things Portal lately, so I was delighted to find a fanmade musical on Youtube. The 2017 version (my favorite) is here and the 2015 version is here. Feel free to mix the two!
Pokémon: Detective Pikachu [Safety]
This movie was so heartwarming and fun. Tim is such a sweetheart. And the Pokémon are so cute (and sometimes a bit creepy). The story was totally predictable but I ate up all of it.
Here's an overview of my requests :
Portal 1 & 2 (Video Games)
I didn't live under a rock during the early '10s so I had heard of Portal at the time, and I even thought it sounded like something I would like, but I've only played both games for the first time 3 months ago and haven't really stopped since.
I also really enjoy how much fan engagement these games generated (and still generate). So feel free to use footage from fan made stuff, from mods (Portal Stories : Mel, Aperture Tag, the community test chambers) to the Portal musical (see also below) or anything like that.
