[Archers] ST. Sebastian Theme vote is done.

[Fen & Michelle]

I like Silk Road the most, but agree with others that its a complex shoot to coordinate re target design. To do it right, you need to have a narrative that reflects the key parts of Marco Polo's travels. Make it educational as well as fun. But there would need to be one person very familiar with the story to assign target ideas. That would be hard over long-distance and might crimp the style of our more creative folk.
 
I see similiar issues with Beowulf. You'll get 8 stations all featuring Grendel if you don't coordinate.
 
So my vote is for Celtic Creatures. I'm assuming we can borrow from Celtic Mythology too? If you did normal critters, you could teach how & what they were hunted for. Maybe there's some info poachers & protected royal forests in Ireland.
 
Cheers
Fen

I have ended the vote for the theme for this years shoot.  Below you will find the top three vote getters. We need to look at viable targets for each one, please if you volunteered to make a target think about each theme.  The themes are Beowulf, Celtic Creatures, and the Silk Road .
Example, 
Beowulf  – Grendal, Mother, Viking ships, coast watcher, dragon, mead hall and thanes.  Problem is limited target selection, even though this is my favorite. 
Celtic creatures – deer, dragons, serpents, wolfs, boars, etc.  Large number of targets.
Silk Road –basically follow Marco Polo’s journeys from Venice to China and back, 15,000 miles in 24 years.   Large number of targets
Post some of your target ideas.
I will be asking for another vote in a few days.
