“(Do You Wanna Date My) Avatar” is a 2009 song created and performed by the cast of the web series The Guild, with lead vocals by singer-actress Felicia Day. The lyrics were written by Day and the music was written, and the music video directed by musical composer Jed Whedon, brother to television producer Joss Whedon.
The music video features the entire cast of The Guild dressed up as their own online “avatar” characters from the web series.

Day comments that “In a regular Hollywood situation it would have cost us hundreds of thousands of dollars”, but the video was recorded in Whedon’s closet three weeks prior to its general release.

Whedon stated that in directing the video (his first time “directing anything” according to his wife), he “basically wanted to do a relatively cliché dance video as if it were about medieval fantasy warriors who took themselves really seriously”, in which respect he felt the cast delivered “perfectly and hilariously”. He used stop motion techniques to compensate for those members of The Guild cast who do not have dancing skills. Then, to make it “legit” as a video, Whedon made sure to include “actual sexy footage of Felicia, stellar dancing with Amy showing off her chops, and of course, raining money.”
Jeff Lewis, who describes himself as “not good at anything at all – dancing or rap” comments “they were able to make what I did [the rap sequence] fairly entertaining”. Lewis recorded four lines of rap at Jed’s house which were later synced up to the video. He was told to dance or “do anything” for three minutes, which “felt really bad and embarrassing… awful” but was impressed when the footage was slowed down, and became “more than I anticipated or imagined in a music video.”
