I've been hosting trivia for ~8 years now, but I have recently added a second location that offers the use of a video screen, which was not an option in the past. I'm using it as a power point featuring the questions and a recap at the end to avoid repeats, as well as for photo questions that don't feature a full hand-out picture round. However, I would like to incorporate actual video. For those who do (or wish to) do you have any creative ways or round styles you're willing to share? For the one I've hosted with video so far, I used it for straightforward questions like "Name this film" or name this "actor," as well as the round I'll share below. I have decent video editing skills, but am mostly using open source software. Thanks in advance!

Mismatched Music Videos
I synced iconic music videos with the wrong music and had teams identify what the music video was for. "Single Ladies" set to the William Tell Overture, Childish Gambino's "This is America" set to "Yakety Sax," etc.

Connections -
For this week, I'm working on a connections round. I will mismatch video and audio clips and ask teams to identify the connection, in one to several words. Any clever examples of this I'd take as well. 😄
Examples I'm thinking of:
-Clips from the Neverending Story set to music by the band Atreyu, with Atreyu being the answer
-Randy Newman's "Short People" with clips of Newman from Seinfeld

Thanks in advance! I'm willing to share pretty much everything I've done, as I've taken a lot of inspiration from this and other boards.

Morning everybody. I've been writing and hosting a trivia for about 8 years. I like to do a picture round every week and I'm looking for a brainstorm session for theme ideas. I think by far the easiest to do are pop culture based themes (name this celebrity / name this film) so I'm kind of looking more for non-pop culture ideas, but please, if you have any you're very proud of that you're willing to share, please do! I'm sure other hosts will appreciate any and all, as much as I do.

Some non-pop culture ones I've done before, to list a few examples:

• Brand Logos (I've done more in-depth variations: triangles, featuring a bird, etc.)
• App / Computer Program Logos
• Flags (State / Country / I'm sure there's other ways to use)
• Name a city by landmark
• Name a city by iconic sign (Hollywood, Las Vegas, London Underground)
• Candy Bar by Cross-section

Thanks in advance! I'm also willing to trade question with anyone interested, please reach out. I missed the first question exchange and am looking forward to round 2.
