Empire LRP - commentary on interesting locations!

Taken at the Profound Decisions Empire 'Summer Solstice' Live Role-Playing event in July 2023, this 45 minute video is designed for those new to our game and features me visiting various locations in the game, and chatting about various aspects* of the game plus ad-hoc interviewing the Regio / Ritual Referee, a player character librarian, a Synod Tribune Civil Servant, and a young Academy Citizen player character. The audio has had to be modified due to it being quite windy - apologies.

Brilliant video. Really like getting in to different tents and getting an idea of what they do. Thank you.

Great video Paul! Very useful for new players and for me it was perfect to see how things have evolved since I left. Keep up the excellent work mate. Stay safe and keep having fun!

Found this late in my first event prep, and it's probably the most useful video I've seen

[@paulwilder]

Thanks for your kind comment. I’m always trying different types of filming to help new players (after all there is nearly 400 first time attendees next event!).

Oof the Senate is looking a bit battered. You need to get the original builder back in ;-)

[@paulwilder]

Tell me about it! Well once we have a new site then it can be done up again - like being bigger, with better audience seating and a roof….!

Great vid. You need some drone footage to get the sense of scale.

[@paulwilder]

Absolutely! I’m hoping the BBC drone footage from the event before will eventually be shown. In the meantime I need to think about how I can get as high as possible with one of my filming kits for E4 in September…!

@@paulwilder i would be shocked if you couldn't find a kindly larper with a drone who couldn't get you some footage

[@paulwilder]

@@garethbowden2424 sure - I’ve got one - the issue is legality - you can’t just fly a drone over nearly 4000 people..!

[@garethbowden2424]

Not with that attitude! 😂 But yeah ok needs more research

@@garethbowden2424 you mean not with that altitude..! lol
