ATTF: Let's Show Joss Where To Go -- Scripts, Clips and Cameos  
Hey there, dearest members of the Bar of Bars!  I took the day off to do some writing (!), and now that I finished cleaning up the mess the enormous, fat raccoon that lives down the lane made of our garbage last night (yes, the can WAS secured ...) I thought I’d post today’s issue a bit early.  Here’s hoping this will give our friends on other continents than the one I'm on a sporting chance to play while it’s still Friday there, too!

Right.  Topic.

We just had another great Promptathon – but I just know that your creativity hasn’t been exhausted yet.  Far from it!  So I thought we could tap into it once more.  Like this:

We’ve all been squeeing over glimpses of That Necklace in the stills from Cap2, the trailers for Thor2, and wondering what the MCU future holds for Hawkeye and Black Widow.  If you’re anything like me, you’re hoping for a cameo, a post-credit clip, or a little snippet of script that might put some wind into the sails of our 'ship.  Or you’re just a wee bit ticked off concerned that there is still no sign of the Hawkeye/Black Widow movie they should be making, instead of in addition to the ones that are in the pipeline.

So here’s your challenge:

Give us your pitch, write up your script outline, your single-scene story board, your trailer – for the cameo, the one-minute clip, the extra-feature short, or the whole Big Damn Movie you’d like to see, starring our favourite assassins and their assorted BAMFy friends. 

If you’re muse is on vaca today, there are some fantastically talented artists and vidders out there who’ve already done movie posters, clips and trailers – so rec away!

Just to get you going -- a while ago, [livejournal.com profile] sunny_serenity posted this lovely piece of inspiration:




Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

And … remember to have fun!!!
 
 
Current Mood: creative
Current Music: loud movie trailer stuff

I know, it would be fricken amazeballs!!! They would have to get a couple of young actors (obviously) but I want to see him lose his virginity with the lion tamer's assistnant or something haha. And just riding elephants and juggling and applying clown make-up and getting constipated on a bunch of circus peanuts (ok, maybe not the last bit).

Now you've done it. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY PLOT BUNNIES I'VE GOT HOPPING AROUND IN MY HEAD ALREADY, WOMAN???

Sorry. Caps Were Necessary. ;-)

The closest I've come to doing circus was in my five-times fic, but it's been bubbling in the back of my mind ... do read [livejournal.com profile] inkvoices' "The Nature of Dust" though, which is, like, the gold standard of circus fics.

I read that fic, it is fricken fantastic!!! Mind-blowingly so.

Also, if your muse wants you to write a circus fic, who are you to deny it? ;) (please please please listen to that muse!!!!)
