Hi elves, dwarfs, numenors, orcs and wizards!

I'm Misha from Russia. I start to creating an interesting project about Tolkien's trilogy Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit. If you have free time, please answer a few questions.

1. What things, accessories or symbols (not persons) do you want to see in this video?

2. What makes LOTR universe recognizable?

3. What is your favorite scenes, moments or quotes from these movies?

4. Which color scheme do you prefer: Dark (Mordor, Moria, night, dark stone) or Light\Natural (Rivendell, Rohan, Elves, Shire)?

Your answers will help me create a cool video. Thank you for your help!

1. I would be interested in a video about the different ways artist have interpreted the books. how closely the design of things like Family crests, banner symbols, and armor have changed or stayed the same. and what artist's interpretations has had most influential to future generations. Also what Tolkien thought of the art of his world

2. Most people know the movies and the look of Weta Workshop. As far as the books and story, for me the things that make LOTR so unique is the precision of the history. The depth of the imagined world and the originality of that. The songs. There is an almost obsessive cultural quality with poems and songs in the world that is (for me) a direct line into the most creative parts Tolkien. that's how I know I am in Middle Earth.

3. Théoden. Always Théoden

4. I like the natural, lived in look of the Men of the West. Rohan and Gondor and the fiefdoms.
