I patched together a fake movie trailer for the Baldur's Gate saga. https://youtu.be/Jdd06d2nids

I hope you all enjoy it. Feel free to let me know what you think.

    Very cool! Sadly, it's hard to tell which of characters is which and the song doesn't fit too well imo but I am glad that I watched it :D Thanks for making this :)

    I love that you picked some footage to showcase Vin Diesel because OMG HE NEEDS TO BE SAREVOK!

    I think the redhead shooting at the wolf is supposed to be Imoen.

    And our Vikings shieldmaiden would make a decent BG2 Jaheira, if I do say so myself. (Or is she our Bhaalspawn?)

    Lagertha is supposed to be Charname, but she doesn't have to be, since I deliberately made parts of the vid open to interpretation. Same deal with the woman with the bow; could be Imoen, could be someone else, if you want. The lady at the very beginning is who I intended to be Jaheira (and the guy after that is Khalid) as a reference to some great character picspam posts I saw on Tumblr.

    I think I saw Imoen, Sarevok, Jan and Jaheira there! ^^

    The candle cut was particularly nice, and that was a perfect song for this. I hadn't hear Lorde's version. Just hearing it was a win. Thanks

    I am thinking that Valygar's Portrait is based upon a Vin Diesel picture as its template; it is the lower part of the face and the eyes / brow line that strikes me the most minus the widened jaw. I don't know - t'was just a thought...

    @WithinAmnesia I agree. Other people have suggested that Valygar looks like LL Cool J, but I've always had a Vin Diesel vibe. Even the eye expression reminds me of Vin Diesel.

    Apparently there are some issues with the video on YouTube, so here is alternative posted directly on my blog if YouTube doesn't work.
