00;00;00;00 - 00;00;03;22
Speaker 1
Hey, Gemini.
00;00;03;25 - 00;00;06;28
Speaker 2
Hey there. What's going on?
00;00;07;01 - 00;00;11;24
Speaker 1
I'm recording this for a podcast. Is that okay?
00;00;11;27 - 00;00;15;15
Speaker 2
That's really cool. What's the podcast going to be about?
00;00;15;17 - 00;00;51;08
Speaker 1
Well, today I want to, I'm going to a Renaissance festival, and I want to brainstorm some costume ideas. I live in Austin. It's going to be a high of 90 and a low 60 today. I'm a dude. I'm 61. About 145 pounds, probably right now. I'm okay with female costumes, even though I'm into. I've been shining twins with my wife as well as we were Ray and Chewie, one year from Star Wars.
00;00;51;11 - 00;00;57;22
Speaker 1
What do you think I should be this time?
00;00;57;25 - 00;01;13;20
Speaker 2
That's awesome. You could totally rock a Jedi or Sith costume to go with their Rey outfits. You could even do a fun twist on a classic Renaissance character like a Jedi Knight in shining armor, or a Sith Lord with a medieval flair.
00;01;13;22 - 00;01;19;28
Speaker 1
The Jedi Knight in shining Armor is a funny play on words.
00;01;20;00 - 00;01;34;19
Speaker 2
Yeah, it could be a really cool mashup. You could even add some detail to the armor to make it more unique, like etching in some, or writing or adding a lightsaber holster. What do you think?
00;01;34;21 - 00;01;43;25
Speaker 1
What is Aurra bash writing? That's like the native Star Wars language? Well, I guess there's probably a lot.
00;01;43;27 - 00;01;56;29
Speaker 2
Yeah, or a bash is basically the alphabet used in the Star Wars universe. It's all over the place in the movies and shows, especially in the background on signs and stuff. It's a cool way to add some extra Star Wars flare to your costume.
00;01;57;02 - 00;02;04;15
Speaker 1
Tell me a little bit. Give me a little background on the orb bash thing.
00;02;04;18 - 00;02;21;15
Speaker 2
Sure thing. Or bash is the writing system used for Galactic Basic, which is basically the main language in the Star Wars universe. It's used all over the place from signs on building to control panels on spaceships. It's kind of like the English alphabet in Star Wars. Would you like to hear more about how Aurra Bash is used in the Star Wars universe?
00;02;21;20 - 00;02;25;25
Speaker 2
Or maybe how you could incorporate it into your costume?
00;02;25;28 - 00;02;28;21
Speaker 1
Sure.
00;02;28;23 - 00;02;42;20
Speaker 2
You could incorporate or mesh into your costume in a few ways. You could write a cool Star Wars phrase on your armor or belt, or maybe even on a sign to carry around. It would definitely make your costume stand out.
00;02;42;22 - 00;02;51;10
Speaker 1
What characters in Star Wars use the Arab alphabet?
00;02;51;13 - 00;03;13;29
Speaker 2
Lots of characters in Star Wars use or bash. But here's a few of the most well-known ones. Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, and Han Solo would all be familiar with it, since it's the main writing system used throughout the galaxy. Even characters like Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine would probably know or bash, since it's used by the Empire to.
00;03;14;02 - 00;03;25;03
Speaker 1
Yeah, if you were a Jedi Knight in shining armor, you could also be. Are there any, like, Dark Knight, or is that just Batman?
00;03;25;05 - 00;03;37;26
Speaker 2
Yeah. Going in the Dark Knight would be awesome. You could even add some Sith inspired details to your costume, like a red light saber for some cool armor modifications. What do you think.
00;03;37;28 - 00;03;48;00
Speaker 1
In Star Wars lore, would anybody be considered a Dark Knight by that terminology? Exactly.
00;03;48;02 - 00;04;02;06
Speaker 2
In Star Wars, the term Dark Knight isn't really used. Instead, they usually refer to dark side users as Sith or Dark Jedi. So someone like Darth Vader or Kylo Ren would fit that description.
00;04;02;09 - 00;04;11;14
Speaker 1
But they wouldn't generally be referred to as knights of any sort. On the south side, right?
00;04;11;17 - 00;04;23;11
Speaker 2
True, they wouldn't be called Knight. The Sith and other dark side users don't really use that term. They'd probably just be called Sith or Dark Jedi.
00;04;23;13 - 00;04;37;01
Speaker 1
Okay, let's specifically explore the Jedi Knight in shining armor concept. And come up with some ideas.
00;04;37;03 - 00;04;53;27
Speaker 2
Okay, let's brainstorm some ideas for your Jedi Knight in Shining Armor costume. You could start with a basic knight costume and then add some Jedi touches, like a lightsaber or a Jedi robe over the armor. Maybe even incorporate some or best writing on the armor itself. What do you think?
00;04;54;00 - 00;04;59;11
Speaker 1
I don't want to do too many layers because it's going to be 90 today.
00;04;59;13 - 00;05;12;23
Speaker 2
Right. That's a good point. You could go for a lighter weight tunic or robe instead of full armor, and maybe add some armored accents like cauldrons or bracers. That way you'd still get the knight vibe without overheating.
00;05;12;25 - 00;05;18;05
Speaker 1
And incorporate maybe like skin paint.
00;05;18;07 - 00;05;33;01
Speaker 2
Definitely. You could use a metallic silver or gold paint to give your skin that shining armor look. Or if you want to get really creative, you could try some glow in the dark paint for a cool effect at night.
00;05;33;03 - 00;05;38;01
Speaker 1
That's a good idea.
00;05;38;03 - 00;05;48;01
Speaker 2
I know right? I'm picturing you with a really cool design on your face and arms. You could even add some glow in the dark paint for extra flair.
00;05;48;04 - 00;06;01;22
Speaker 1
Yeah, and it's a Renaissance festival, too. So, like the. I feel like the costume, breadth is pretty broad.
00;06;01;25 - 00;06;14;13
Speaker 2
That's true. The Renaissance period covers a lot of ground, so you have plenty of options. You could go for a classic knight look, or maybe something a little more unique. Have you considered any specific characters or time periods within the Renaissance?
00;06;14;15 - 00;06;39;18
Speaker 1
No. What I'm saying is that, like, you could be a Jedi Knight. It's not really at the Renaissance Festival, as you probably know. Just from the wealth of information on the internet is it's not super, rigid to solely the specific medieval Renaissance era.
00;06;39;23 - 00;06;57;25
Speaker 2
Totally true. Renaissance festivals are all about having fun and embracing creativity. You could definitely rock a Jedi Knight costume and fit right in. Maybe add some Renaissance inspired details to your lightsaber or robe to tie it all together.
00;06;57;28 - 00;07;09;00
Speaker 1
Okay, within the Jedi Knight. Can you give me a list of Jedi Knights?
00;07;09;03 - 00;07;19;07
Speaker 2
Sure. Some of the most famous Jedi Knights are Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Yoda, Mace Windu, and Gungeon. Would you like a list of other Jedi characters?
00;07;19;09 - 00;07;24;28
Speaker 1
Yeah, I probably can't play mace.
00;07;25;00 - 00;07;35;03
Speaker 2
Okay, here's a few more Jedi Knights for you. Kitt, bestow Luminara and Dooley and Platoon. Do you want to hear about some more Jedi, or are you looking for something else?
00;07;35;06 - 00;07;47;17
Speaker 1
Can you just give me the Jedi Knights from the movie? And I probably can't pull off Samuel Jackson's character.
00;07;47;20 - 00;07;56;21
Speaker 2
Okay, so besides Mace Windu, there's also Kiera mooney, Kit Sisto, and Shock Tea. They all have pretty unique looks, but you might find some good inspiration there.
00;07;56;23 - 00;08;00;09
Speaker 1
They were in the movies.
00;08;00;11 - 00;08;08;17
Speaker 2
Yeah. Kerry Mooney, Kit, Fatso and Shock Tea were all the Star Wars movies. They were part of the Jedi Council and fought in the Clone Wars.
00;08;08;19 - 00;08;33;03
Speaker 1
Okay, I think instead of going for a specific character, let's just do prod and come up with specific, costume ideas from kind of like a mechanical or like, not from a story point of view, but from maybe, not a set design, a costume design point of view.
00;08;33;06 - 00;08;56;10
Speaker 2
Okay, so for a more general Jedi Knight look, you could go with a classic tunic and pants combo in earth tones like brown or tan. Add a leather belt with some pouches and maybe a light saber. Help. You could also incorporate some armor pieces, like bracers or cauldrons, to give it that knightly feel.
00;08;56;12 - 00;09;20;00
Speaker 1
Why don't we quickly build a character that lives in this, maybe it would be funny if it was kind of like a Jedi. But if a Jedi was, like, time traveled back to the Renaissance.
00;09;20;03 - 00;09;42;18
Speaker 2
Okay, let's create a Jedi who's been thrown back in time to the Renaissance. We'll call him third. Udaya. He's a bit confused by all the fancy clothes and lack of technology, but he's trying to fit in. Maybe he's mistaken for a knight because of his lightsaber, which he calls his laser sword. We could give him a tunic and earth tone, like brown or tan, and a leather belt with pouches.
00;09;42;21 - 00;09;50;03
Speaker 2
Maybe add some armored accents like bracers or Paul Durham to give him that knightly look. What do you think of Serge ideas so far?
00;09;50;05 - 00;09;54;23
Speaker 1
I like this concept.
00;09;54;26 - 00;10;13;09
Speaker 2
Great. So for Serge ideas costume, we could go with the classic tunic and pants combo and earth tones like brown or tan. Add a leather belt with some pouches and maybe a light saber hilt. You could also incorporate some armor pieces like bracers or cauldrons to give it that knightly feel. What do you think?
00;10;13;11 - 00;10;18;16
Speaker 1
What are bracers and cauldrons?
00;10;18;19 - 00;10;29;24
Speaker 2
Bracers are like forearm guards, and cauldrons are shoulder armor. They'd add a cool, knightly touch to his costume. Don't you think?
00;10;29;27 - 00;10;52;03
Speaker 1
Yes, I think so. But the problem is that, I can't spend a bunch of money on a costume, so, like. But I do have a workshop. I don't have a ton of time. I probably need to throw it together in, like, under an hour. But how would I make some bracers? And Paul drains out of just like, normal material that you'd have in your house.
00;10;52;03 - 00;10;59;18
Speaker 1
Maybe. Maybe some cardboard or paper, I don't know, but it's got to look okay.
00;10;59;21 - 00;11;18;23
Speaker 2
Okay. For a quick and budget friendly option, you could definitely use cardboard for the bracers and cauldrons. Just cut out the shapes you want and maybe add some details with markers or paint. You could even use some duct tape to attach them to your arms and shoulders. Does that sound like it could work for you?
00;11;18;25 - 00;11;31;12
Speaker 1
I do, I am currently looking at a roll of that metallic tape they use on duct.
00;11;31;15 - 00;11;44;24
Speaker 2
That metallic duct tape would be perfect. You could use it to add some cool detail to the cardboard bracers and cauldrons. Maybe even create some designs that look like aura writing. What do you think?
00;11;44;27 - 00;11;55;00
Speaker 1
Yeah, I think that's a really pretty decent idea and could be done fairly quickly or even on the go.
00;11;55;02 - 00;12;09;16
Speaker 2
Awesome. So we've got 30 dias bracers and cauldrons covered. What about the tunic and pants? Do you have anything in mind for those?
00;12;09;19 - 00;12;20;04
Speaker 1
Pants? Probably. I'm actually wearing a pair of gray pants that could probably pass for some medieval shit.
00;12;20;07 - 00;12;32;10
Speaker 2
Great. Gray pants will work perfectly for the tunic. Do you have any old t shirts? Or maybe a button down shirt you could use? We could get creative with some fabric dye or even just cut and style them to look more Renaissance.
00;12;32;13 - 00;12;39;15
Speaker 1
I probably yeah, I probably got a shirt that would pass.
00;12;39;17 - 00;12;56;15
Speaker 2
Great. If you have a brown or tan shirt, that would be perfect. You could even add some details with fabric, paint or markers to make it look more like a Jedi tunic. Maybe add a leather belt with some pouches to complete the look. What do you think?
00;12;56;17 - 00;13;22;14
Speaker 1
Using modern clothing. Because, like, I don't know if any, like Macy's doesn't have tunics. Or maybe they do. But like using modern clothing terminology as, like a 36 year old dude in America. What would a tunic be? Would it be like, more like a t shirt or a long sleeve shirt, or what?
00;13;22;16 - 00;13;35;02
Speaker 2
A tunic is basically a loose fitting shirt that goes down to your thighs or knees. So you could use a long t shirt or even an oversize button down shirt for that. What color shirt are you thinking of using?
00;13;35;04 - 00;13;40;21
Speaker 1
Why do they go so low? Because of the armor.
00;13;40;24 - 00;13;54;12
Speaker 2
Tunics were worn pretty long back then, especially for men. They'd often go down to the thighs or even the knees. It was partly for modesty, but also because it was just the style.
00;13;54;15 - 00;14;02;02
Speaker 1
From a practical perspective, why were tunics the way they were at the time?
00;14;02;04 - 00;14;19;17
Speaker 2
Tunics were super practical back then. They were comfy for moving around, and you could layer them up for warmth or wear them on their own when it was hot. Plus, they were easy to make and clean, which was a big deal. But for washing machines and stuff.
00;14;19;19 - 00;14;33;00
Speaker 1
Yeah, it's pretty funny that I didn't even think about having it be easy to make and clean, because you couldn't just go to the store like you do now.
00;14;33;02 - 00;14;49;06
Speaker 2
Yeah, it's easy to forget how much things have changed. Back then, clothes were definitely more about practicality than fashion. But hey, that just means we have more options to get creative with our costumes. Now.
00;14;49;09 - 00;15;06;01
Speaker 1
And being able to just order a shirt and it comes in the afternoon in whatever style I want, like it comes so, it's so normalized now.
00;15;06;03 - 00;15;17;01
Speaker 2
I know right? It's pretty amazing how easy it is to get clothes nowadays, but hey, that just means we have more options to get creative with our costume.
00;15;17;03 - 00;15;33;18
Speaker 1
Okay, I think that is a solid first idea. I would love to step back and explore totally different ideas for Renaissance Fair costume.
00;15;33;20 - 00;15;51;19
Speaker 2
Okay, let's explore some other costume ideas for your Renaissance Festival adventure. We could go for a classic knight or noble look, or maybe something more unique, like a forest for a pirate. What kind of vibe are you going for?
00;15;51;22 - 00;16;02;27
Speaker 1
Let's go. More unique. I like the forest. Elf or creature? Let's go with other forest creatures.
00;16;02;29 - 00;16;19;07
Speaker 2
Okay, let's explore some forest creature costume ideas. Besides elves, you could go with a dryad, which is like a tree nymph. Or maybe a cedar, which is half human, half goat. Or if you're feeling a bit more mischievous, a goblin could be a fun choice.
00;16;19;10 - 00;16;26;02
Speaker 1
Hold on.
00;16;26;05 - 00;17;07;27
Speaker 2
Okay, let's explore some forest creature costume ideas. Besides elves, you could go with a dryad, which is like a tree nymph. Or maybe a theater which is half human, half goat. Or if you're feeling a bit more mischievous, a goblin could be a fun choice.
00;17;07;29 - 00;17;43;10
Speaker 1
Okay. Sorry. I'm back. That sound, sounded like fo the outdoor cat getting into a fight. But it was the neighbor. Just doing some construction shit.
00;17;43;13 - 00;17;55;11
Speaker 1
Hey, Gemini. I'm back. There. I thought that sound was fo the outdoor cat getting into a fight, but it was the neighbor just doing some construction shit.
00;17;55;13 - 00;18;15;02
Speaker 2
Oh. Good news. It was just construction. So where were we? Yes. Forest creatures. Besides elves, you could go as a dryad, which is like a tree nymph. Or maybe a cedar, which is half human, half goat. Or if you're feeling a bit more mischievous, a goblin could be a fun choice. What do you think?
00;18;15;04 - 00;18;25;05
Speaker 1
Hang on. Your volume is really loud. Cedar. What was after Cedar?
00;18;25;07 - 00;18;35;15
Speaker 2
After satyr. I mentioned the goblin. Would you like to hear more about either of those options?
00;18;35;18 - 00;18;44;11
Speaker 1
No. Let's keep, let's keep going through the list and just brains. Let's stay at some high level brainstorming here.
00;18;44;14 - 00;19;02;23
Speaker 2
Okay, let's keep brainstorming. Besides elves, dryads, satyrs, and goblins, you could also consider a fairy or a sprite or for something a bit more earthy, perhaps a gnome or even a forest spirit. How about these ideas?
00;19;02;25 - 00;19;12;06
Speaker 1
I like these, let's keep brainstorming at this level.
00;19;12;08 - 00;19;31;28
Speaker 2
Okay, besides the forest creatures we've already mentioned, you could also consider something like a centaur, which is half human, half horse, or maybe a heartbeat, which is half human, half bird. Or for something a bit more mythical, perhaps a griffon or even a dragon. How about these ideas?
00;19;32;01 - 00;19;46;09
Speaker 1
Let's remember that we do have to keep it easy. And, and pretty simple.
00;19;46;11 - 00;20;13;09
Speaker 2
Okay. Keeping it easy and cool is key for a simple and breezy forest creature costume. You could go as a dryad, think flowy, earthy colored clothes, maybe with some leafy accessories or a cedar. Could be fun. You could wear brown pants and add some faux fur to your legs. What do you think?
00;20;13;11 - 00;20;41;18
Speaker 1
I don't know. I'm not crazy about the idea. They're good ideas and stuff like that, but I kind of want to go a little bit more silly, I guess you would say. What about, what are other word associations with the word knight? Kind of like the Jedi knight of the shining armor thing.
00;20;41;20 - 00;21;00;24
Speaker 2
Okay, let's get silly with it. Besides Jedi Knight, we have things like Night owl, nightcap, or even nightmare. Are there any of these that spark an idea for you? Oh.
00;21;00;27 - 00;21;07;27
Speaker 1
The nightmare in shining armor. Maybe.
00;21;08;00 - 00;21;21;07
Speaker 2
A nightmare in shining armor. Sounds awesome. You could go for a spooky undead knight look with tattered armor and glowing eyes. Or for something more humorous, maybe a knight covered in silly, mismatched armor pieces. What do you think?
00;21;21;09 - 00;21;42;23
Speaker 1
I don't know, it seems like I'd probably have to do a lot of explaining. The Jedi Knight in shining armor would kind of make, sense really quickly to people. I did think of the Dark Knight in shining armor.
00;21;42;26 - 00;21;52;26
Speaker 2
Yeah, the Jedi Knight in shining armor is definitely more straightforward. You could even add some fun details to your armor to make it extra shiny and eye catching.
00;21;52;29 - 00;22;01;27
Speaker 1
How would I do, Dark Knight in shining armor like Batman version of Dark Knight?
00;22;01;29 - 00;22;20;24
Speaker 2
For a Dark Knight in shining armor, look, think medieval Batman. You could adapt a knight costume with a black tunic, cape, and maybe even a cowl. Add some bat like details to your armor and you're good to go.
00;22;20;27 - 00;22;26;03
Speaker 1
That one would probably be harder. Not gonna lie.
00;22;26;06 - 00;22;42;13
Speaker 2
Yeah, that one might be a bit more challenging, but hey, you could always simplify it. Maybe just focus on the black tunic and cape and add a cool bat shaped belt buckle or something.
00;22;42;15 - 00;23;23;03
Speaker 1
Okay. Let's explore. Kind of, the area, I liked the largest ethics of the costume design from an ease and also a, temperature perspective of the Jedi Knight in shining armor. What? Let's take that costume design and kind of warp it a little bit into something new that may not be even related to Star Wars.
00;23;23;05 - 00;23;49;05
Speaker 2
Okay, let's take the Jedi Knight in shining armor and give it a Renaissance twist. We could keep the basic tunic and pants, but add some puffy sleeves or a ruffled collar for the armor. Maybe add some decorative flourishes or etchings. What do you think?
00;23;49;07 - 00;24;15;17
Speaker 1
I think the Jedi Knight in shining armor is probably the best idea. There's. There's some good ideas out there. You know what? Let's let's get off the knight kick. I think I'm stuck on the knight thing. Let's totally not do, forest creatures or elves or anything like that. Let's not do knights. Let's not do, Jedi anything.
00;24;15;17 - 00;24;25;14
Speaker 1
Let's do a totally different Renaissance related thing. Or maybe just a historical thing.
00;24;25;16 - 00;24;39;28
Speaker 2
Okay, let's explore some historical costume ideas. You could go as a gladiator from ancient Rome, a pharaoh from ancient Egypt, or maybe even a Viking warrior. Would you like to hear more about any of these options?
00;24;40;01 - 00;24;45;20
Speaker 1
Let's do, more brainstorming at this level.
00;24;45;22 - 00;25;03;14
Speaker 2
Okay, let's keep brainstorming. You could go as a Roman emperor, a Greek philosopher, or even a Celtic warrior. Or for something a bit more unique, maybe an ancient Egyptian scribe or a mesopotamian king. How about these ideas?
00;25;03;17 - 00;25;20;27
Speaker 1
Let's explore the Celtic realm. Maybe something like from the, the more recent God of War.
00;25;20;29 - 00;25;34;16
Speaker 2
Okay, for a Celtic warrior look inspired by God of War, you could go with a simple tunic and pants and earthy tones. Add some leather or fur accents and maybe even some face paint for that fierce warrior vibe. Would you like to hear more about this option?
00;25;34;18 - 00;25;42;11
Speaker 1
Yeah. How would I make a kilt? On, like, really short notice.
00;25;42;14 - 00;26;04;29
Speaker 2
For a super quick kilt, you could use a large piece of fabric. Think a blanket or even a big towel. Just wrap it around your waist and secure it with a belt. Safety pins can help keep things in place, too. Are you thinking of a specific color or pattern?
00;26;05;02 - 00;26;13;26
Speaker 1
What kind of material are there? Are, kilts usually made of?
00;26;13;28 - 00;26;29;23
Speaker 2
Traditional kilts are made of wool, but you can use any sturdy fabric that drapes well. Cotton or linen would work for a lighter option. Tartan patterns are classic for kilts, but a solid color would also look great.
00;26;29;25 - 00;26;47;00
Speaker 1
So if I were to stop briefly at a fabric store, what fabric would you recommend that doesn't get too hot? But also looks authentic.
00;26;47;02 - 00;27;00;06
Speaker 2
For a kilt that's both cool and authentic looking, I'd suggest linen. It's breathable and has that classic slightly textured look. You could go for a solid color or a subtle plaid pattern.
00;27;00;08 - 00;27;06;29
Speaker 1
But I'd have to iron pleats in it right?
00;27;07;01 - 00;27;19;00
Speaker 2
If you want to go for a more traditional kilt look, pleats would definitely add to the authenticity. You could iron them in for a crisp look, or even just use some fabric glue to hold them in place. How much time do you have to work on the kilt?
00;27;19;03 - 00;27;24;05
Speaker 1
Probably less than an hour, but I could work in the car.
00;27;24;07 - 00;27;41;06
Speaker 2
Okay, working in the car is doable. You could pre measure and cut your fabric, then do some quick pleating and pinning on the way. Maybe even use some double sided tape for a temporary hold. It won't be perfect, but it'll give you that kilt look.
00;27;41;08 - 00;27;54;00
Speaker 1
If I was walking into like a joy in fabrics or something like that right now, what material and quantity would you recommend? I buy?
00;27;54;02 - 00;28;08;10
Speaker 2
Okay, for a quick kilt at Jo-Ann fabrics, I'd recommend 2 to 3 yards of lightweight linen in a solid color or plaid. You'll also need a belt to secure it. Are there any other accessories you'd like to add?
00;28;08;12 - 00;28;16;19
Speaker 1
Would they wear, any kind of like tights underneath or. No?
00;28;16;21 - 00;28;27;11
Speaker 2
Traditionally, kilts are worn without tights, but it depends on the weather and personal preference. You could wear tights for extra warmth or modesty, especially if it's windy.
00;28;27;13 - 00;28;47;24
Speaker 1
Okay, so let's say that I buy this 2 to 3 yards of linen. Should I take it and, like, pleat it at the waist and pin it and then put a belt around everything?
00;28;47;26 - 00;29;09;10
Speaker 2
Yes, that's exactly right. Pleat the linen at the waist, pin it to secure, and then use a belt to hold everything in place. You might want to add a few extra safety pins for security, especially if you'll be moving around a lot.
00;29;09;12 - 00;29;17;16
Speaker 1
I got a pair of yellow toms. That would work right?
00;29;17;18 - 00;29;27;10
Speaker 2
Yeah, yellow toms would be perfect. They'll add a pop of color and keep things casual. You could even add some fun socks to complete the look. What do you think?
00;29;27;12 - 00;29;32;22
Speaker 1
What should I wear? What would I wear as a top?
00;29;32;24 - 00;29;46;16
Speaker 2
For a top, you could go with a simple linen shirt to match the kilt. Or if you want to add some flair, a flowy peasant blouse would look great. What color is the linen you chose?
00;29;46;19 - 00;29;59;02
Speaker 1
I haven't gotten it yet. What would I use as a flowy peasant blouse? I don't know if I have anything like that.
00;29;59;04 - 00;30;16;21
Speaker 2
A flowy peasant blouse is basically a loose fitting top with wide sleeves. You might have something similar in your closet. Maybe a loose button down shirt, or even a t shirt that's a size or two too big. You could also check out thrift stores for some options.
00;30;16;23 - 00;30;29;22
Speaker 1
I think I might mix these two ideas of the Jedi Knight and like the Celtic, warrior.
00;30;29;24 - 00;30;50;05
Speaker 2
Okay, a Jedi Knight meets Celtic Warrior sounds awesome. You could combine the kilt with a Jedi inspired tunic, maybe even add some leather armor pieces for that warrior vibe. What color are you thinking for the tunic?
00;30;50;07 - 00;31;15;08
Speaker 1
I got, I got some gray shirts that would probably work. It's not. It's not super loose fitting. But I think it's got, like, the two buttons at the top. It's like a crewneck long sleeve, with two buttons at the top that I can kind of, like, leave a little bit open. It's a little bit stretchy, but I think it'll be, doable.
00;31;15;08 - 00;31;22;08
Speaker 1
I do have a cape, too, that I could kind of just throw over at night.
00;31;22;11 - 00;31;33;27
Speaker 2
Yeah, a gray shirt with a couple of buttons at the top would be perfect for that Jedi Celtic Warrior mash up, and a cape would definitely add to the drama. What color is the cape?
00;31;33;29 - 00;31;38;07
Speaker 1
Black.
00;31;38;10 - 00;31;50;21
Speaker 2
Black cape. Nice. That'll add some drama to your Jedi Celtic warrior look. Are you thinking of adding any other accessories like a belt or some jewelry?
00;31;50;24 - 00;31;56;03
Speaker 1
Yeah, probably. I might do something like that.
00;31;56;06 - 00;32;09;10
Speaker 2
Great. A belt would definitely cinch everything together and add to the warrior vibe. You could go for a wide leather belt with a cool buckle, or even a rope belt for something more rustic. What do you think?
00;32;09;12 - 00;32;38;02
Speaker 1
Yeah, I think so. I got to go belt for it. Just like a simple nylon belt. And I think what's going to kind of put everything into place is the body paint, like, on the arms, like maybe some fake kind of, like, tattoo looking stuff or, face stuff. I'm not sure. What would you recommend body paint wise?
00;32;38;05 - 00;32;52;28
Speaker 2
For body paint, you could go with some tribal inspired designs on your arms and face to match the Celtic warrior vibe. Or if you want to incorporate the Jedi side, maybe some aura writing or a lightsaber design. What colors are you thinking?
00;32;53;01 - 00;33;02;14
Speaker 1
Probably earth tones and stuff like that. But then maybe some like black light paint.
00;33;02;17 - 00;33;13;08
Speaker 2
Or earth tones with some black light paint accents would look awesome. You could do some intricate designs in the earth tones, then add glowing highlights with the black light paint for a cool effect. At night.
00;33;13;10 - 00;33;40;09
Speaker 1
Okay, I think that's what I'm going to do. I'm gonna get ready to continue getting ready. But, I really appreciate your help with, everything today. It was fun brainstorming stuff with you. And I like the Jedi Knight in shining armor. It was a really clever idea off the channel.
00;33;40;11 - 00;33;47;13
Speaker 2
You're welcome. I'm glad you liked the Jedi Knight idea. Have a great time at the festival, and may the force be with you.
00;33;47;15 - 00;33;58;18
Speaker 1
Wait, before we go. What? What should I write in? Or a bash that is native to kind of that universe?
00;33;58;21 - 00;34;15;25
Speaker 2
Okay, how about may the force be with you? In Arabic, it's written as you talk foreign sahab with H2. It's a classic phrase that everyone at the festival will recognize.
00;34;15;28 - 00;34;27;26
Speaker 1
That's cool. Are there any other that everybody knows? That one. But are there any other things that you think would be recognizable?
00;34;27;28 - 00;34;35;00
Speaker 2
Okay, how about may the force be with you? In Arabic, it's written as a Gemini effort.
00;34;35;00 - 00;34;40;15
Speaker 1
You just gave me that one. Give me a different one. New.
00;34;40;17 - 00;34;51;08
Speaker 2
You could write Rebel Alliance in Arabic. It's rebel. And it's a symbol of hope and resistance.
00;34;51;11 - 00;34;57;09
Speaker 1
Okay. Sounds good. Thanks, Gemini.
00;34;57;11 - 00;35;00;25
Speaker 2
You're welcome. Have a blast at the Renaissance Festival.
