DFW-area LARP-ers?

August 30, 2010 9:32 PM

Can anyone put me in contact with DFW-area LARP-ers? I have done the Googling, but can't find any groups that seem to be currently active or have good contact links. It would be great to get a contact from someone who actually knows a group/some individuals. This is for a video project.

They don't have to be elaborately costumed types (though that would be awesome) they just have to be willing to let me video some fighting/acting for this project. Oh, and it's not a project mocking LARPers. I'm planning on using the footage for a music video for a song by my husband (a nerdly sort) about being odd and unhip and ok with it.

No money involved, but they will certainly be credited however they wish to be.

Response by poster: thanks, pts; that's a resource I hadn't turned up.

If can't find any locals, may have to cast my net wider; Austin, maybe? Southern Oklahoma?

My sister has some connection with a few of the larger LARPing organizations and knows people involved with LARPing all over the country. When I see her this evening I'll find out if she can get me some info on groups in your area.

if she wants to contact me/has questions, let me know on MefiMail or just tell her to use [e-mail] to get in touch.

There was a pretty big group of people that used to LARM every Sunday in McKenna park at the corner of Bonnie Brae and Scripture in Denton. I don't know if they still do, but they'd apparently been doing it for a while.

Does SCA count? If so, me-mail me. I know several people who are really active in the DFW scene--fighters.
