No, really! Help!
Jul. 24th, 2006 10:24 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
I should know better than to post on weekends. Or maybe it's just that no one really loves me. Sniff. I asked for clip help for a Buffy and Angel all-cast vid, but only three people responded and either no one saw it or no one wants to help me or no one likes me or everyone's forgotten all their stored up Buffy and Angel clips too. Or and stuff! All the times I've responded to people's pleas for clip help, but I can't get help when I ask?
::cries::
Okay, seriously, I really do need help. I have a LOT of repeating lines to fill, and already scanning through just first and second season Buffy is getting hard to avoid repetition of the same characters doing the same things. And I still have 5 more of Buffy and 5 seasons of Angel to go! ::cries again::
So I'm reposting my plea for help -- when you're bored at work, take a trip down memory lane and see if you can recall anything that fits these: I will love you forever, and also, it will help me make the vid, and it will light and fun and cute. But only with your help! Otherwise it will be left to my own lame devices. And then it will suck!!!!!11!!OMG
- Any clips where guys are in danger from women, preferably if the women are supernatural (along the lines of Xander and the preying mantis teacher/ inca mummy girl/Drusilla in BB& B). Bonus points if the women aren't just kicking their asses, but about to eat/torture/kill in some elaborate way, and if the clips seem visually funny, that's great (like the way Xander panics in BB&B). I don't want to use anything that's painful or sad, like Gunn killing his sister -- this is for a lighthearted vid.
- Clips where guys are reacting in a shocked -- shocked! -- or scared way. Facial reactions are often the hardest to scan for when you're looking for clips, and 7 and 5 seasons' worth of scanning for looks of surprise or horror are hard! The funnier the better -- early Wes is obviously going to be a good resource, as is Xander. (I need a LOT of these, so feel free to suggest like mad.)
- Clips where anyone's kind of skulking around or using funny physical motions (a la Spike's mugging for the cameras in Restless)
More specific:
-something/someone that would work for "Jekyll" and a different one for "Hyde"
- Some kind of "zapping" kiss -- stunning or knockout or something a long those lines
- A guy shouting loudly, or longly

Date: 2006-07-26 02:28 am (UTC)You already mentioned Xander a lot, but hey, it's Xander. In season 7 he goes on a date with a girl that ends up chaining him up under the school. Buffy, Wood, & Spike come to the rescue. "First Date"?
Also, not necessarily danger, but Anya ruthlessly pursuing Xander in season 3 had some pretty funny facial expressions. Like at the prom.
funny physical motions: Xander doing the snoopy dance for Willow in "The Replacement". Actually, "The Zeppo" would probably be a good resource for funny facial expressions & motions when it comes to Xander. Him turning around to run away when the Hellmouth snake-thing punches through the wall comes to mind. Plus Faith throws him down on the bed, so--danger from women.
Also, Cordelia doing the "grr arg" hand motions for Angel in "City Of".
There's probably a ton of good exaggerated expressions & such in the Gentlemen episode, since they couldn't talk.
Hmm, let me think. I know there are lots more...
