Summary: I <3 this movie, even its ridiculous makeover narrative, and I'm especially into the chemistry between Sandra Bullock and Benjamin Bratt (as well as the chemistry between Sandra Bullock and frankly everyone) -- so please have fun with it!
Fandom: Kentucky Route Zero (Video Game)
Tags: none
Summary: Ahhhh I love Kentucky Route Zero and I think a vid for it could be really cool and eerie. Music plays a huge part in the atmosphere of the game, so I think you'd have to find just the right song for it, but what is the right song? What is this vid? There are no easy answers here.
Fandom: Stardew Valley (Video Game)
Tags: none
Summary: This game is so wholesome and addictive. A vid exploring the different aspects of the town and surrounding environs would be really cool -- I'm super intrigued by the worldbuilding. I also love how in the gameplay things start out very normal and then gradually get a little stranger, and a little stranger after that... first you're planting parsnips and then you're fighting cave monsters and participating in arcane rituals. From a shippy standpoint, well, my farmer married Shane and kind of regretted it but still hasn't paid for a divorce. He's a slob and an alcoholic but there's just something about him. (Any of the townspeople would be cool to focus on, though.)
Fandom: Community (TV)
Tags: none
Summary: Community had so many great game-focused episodes! The paintball episodes are a classic, of course, but I also loved (and rewatched so many times!) the 8-bit video game episode and the D&D episodes. And wasn't there an episode where Jeff Winger plays billiards in his underwear? It could be really cool to either take one game the study group plays and run with it, or cycle through all the different games and use those competitions to show us something about the characters and their friendships.

Summary: Ruth/Debbie is my OTP. Possibly my top femslash OTP?? But I love literally every character on this show so vid whoever moves you.
Fandom: Spartacus Series (TV)
Tags: Crixus (Spartacus), Gannicus (Spartacus), Oenomaus (Spartacus), Barca (Spartacus), Agron (Spartacus)
Summary: It would be really cool to see a Spartacus vid more focused on life (and training) in the ludus, and competition in the arena. (Gods of the Arena would give a lot of material for this!) I love everybody on this show, but if you need a starting point, a vid about Oenomaeus would be epic.
Fandom: The Great British Bake Off RPF
Tags: none
Summary: I love Great British Bake Off! It's definitely one of my main comfort shows. I love the original team of hosts/judges, but I also love the new set! (Noel Fielding's been a fave since I saw Mighty Boosh.) I also think a Paul Hollywood vid could be really interesting (and potentially hilarious). But whatever direction you choose to go with it, I'll be very happy.
Fandom: The Witcher (TV)
Tags: Geralt z Rivii | Geralt of Rivia, Jaskier | Dandelion, Yennefer z Vengerbergu | Yennefer of Vengerberg, Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon, Tissaia de Vries, Calanthe Fiona Riannon
Summary: I think one of my favorite things about this show is how Geralt is really the only male character (at least, on-screen) who does much to affect the plot's trajectory in the first season. Meanwhile, the women are out there making war and doing magic shit. They're pretty great. (That said, I do appreciate some Geralt/Jaskier. They're almost as slashy as Yennefer/Tissaia.)
