Hey! This is the anon that asked a while back about the movies/media you used for the incredibly realistic and accurate dragon age aesthetic posts! I appreciate the response to my ask, I know it was vague lol. I was wondering if you would consider posting a sort of "reference sheet" of movies you used to compile the aesthetics, or even just give some recommendations for finding accurate sources for aesthetic boards and compilations. I appreciate you taking the time, thanks so much!

Hi, putting this under a read-more (sorry mobile users!) I don’t have access to my files unfortunately so I’ll do this off memory

First Set: 

YouTube of (possibly??) neuschwanstein castle I’m not sure, it’s been 2 years since I made that set so I can’t remember

Maleficent

Red Riding Hood

Vampires of Venice - Doctor Who

YouTube again, it was over 2 years ago I can’t recall the video or link.

Snow White and the Huntsman I think

The Night Lands - Game of Thrones

Robin Hood I think, with added rain effects

Maleficent again

YouTube of Giant’s Causeway I think

Set #2:

Lord of the Rings I think the opening of Two Towers 

I wanna say the Red Riding Hood movie again but I could be wrong

YouTube of Yellowstone National Park

YouTube of icy/wintery landscapes

YouTube of forests (I think this one was in Japan?)

Jack the Giant Slayer

one of The Hobbit movies 

YouTube of Grand Canyon I think

Legend of Hercules I think

one of The Hobbit movies 

Set #3:

Phantom of the Opera

YouTube of an oasis/waterfall sorry I can’t remember where I watched so many vids of South and Central American and African locations

YouTube of the Sahara I believe 

YouTube of I wanna say temple(s) in Myanmar/Bagan

Chronicles of Shannara (epi from season 1, I didn’t watch too much back when it first aired)

La Belle et la Bete

YouTube from 1:55 to 2:13

YouTube of Ta Prohm/Angkor (I think!); the waterfall part from Jungle Book

2/3 from one of The Hobbit movies, the other shot is maybe from Jack the Giant Slayer

That’s it for now!

Hi there! I'm a big fan of your blog in general, but especially your aesthetic series. I'm in love with the dragon age location series, and was wondering if you would ever post the gifs you made without the text? I would love to share them on pinterest and stuff with out the text (it's for the aesthetic haha). thanks for taking the time

Hi thanks so much! I don’t have plans to post them without text and I would really prefer you not repost/share (text or textless) my posts anywhere else :)

May I ask, where did you get the footage for the incredible DAI location series you made? Everything looks incredibly accurate and realistic!!

Hi! Thanks so much :D Did you have a specific one in mind? I find a lot of them from movies or shows and the rest through youtube. If you had any recs for other DA locations I haven’t done yet (there’s a ton more in the works!) I’d be super grateful for any recs!
