[spirngakawening]

Obsessed with the vocal effect on Grace's "on your knees pray along / if you wanna last until dawn" in the cast recording likeeeee,, aaghskdkdhbsjdl she's just slightly possessed. And I don't hear it in the proshot!! Which saddens me

Also obsessed with the proshot's lighting & camera work for this part

So I (v low effort) combined them avahdkdl

[crapload-of-crafts]

very minor Workin Boys spoilers //

Richie and Trevor being brothers actually gives us a fun little insight into why Richie is good with a camera. He's techy with the camera in npmd and shows at least some working knowledge of photo editing software in Workin Boys. Why?

Trevor's a theater kid.

They probably grew up making home videos. Short films. Photoshoots.

Trevor would act and pose and sing, and who better to film it all than Richie?

And then Richie learned how to edit things along the side, editing headshots, videos, and stills for Trevor.

They spent a bunch of time as kids just messing around with a camera and a computer, I bet, and they just got good at what they loved.

I had a conversation with someone in the youtube comments of NPMD that said that they hadn't watched NT bc they felt iffy about the format and were put off by the lagging and issues on the first episode, which I did too at first and put it off for months which I now regret for the reasons blow.

The quality gets so much better later on, and especially in Nightmare Time 2 where it's not done through zoom anymore and the editing, props, costumes and music videos are all super good. Nightmare Time 2 stories are also happening in one timeline and are standalone so I'd reccomend for someone to start with Honey Queen aka the first episode of NT2 and go from there for a better experience.

NT in general has gotten a lot of views after thr youtube release of NPMD and the Langs said that if enough people show interest a NT3 will happen so I wanna encourage others to leave their inhibit behind and watch the existing eps of NT bc it truly is a masterpiece in my opinion.

PLEASE WATCH NIGHTMARE TIME IT'S SO GOOD AND YOU CAN START WITH WHATEVER EP!!!!!

hey folks who make video edits and gifs and such

how do you get clips from longer videos? i wanted to make a NPMD edit, and the full video is too long for the ones i've used in the past and any other sites just didnt work and the few browser extensions i tried also just did not work.

i've had trouble in the past trying to make edits for anything on streaming services and honestly i might just go a little insane.

anyway, if anyone can please tell me how you get video files out of the video and into my computer i will love you forever.

the summoning choreography chart

lads the autism got me again. we're in npmd lockdown.

I finally managed to figure out which little 'dance' belongs to each Lord In Black in "The Summoning" bc its hard to tell and it was bugging me. here's a vid for reference.

wiggly - space invaders lookin shit probably meant to be emblematic of his mouth tentacles (0:58, 1:52)

nibbly - licks his lollipop - when others do this they mime licking their hand or any other prop they're holding (1:06, 1:15)

blinky - makes a little triangle w his fingers and looks through it (when pokey does this he looks through his mask) in a sweeping left to right motion (his left). (1:12, 4:53)

tinky - both arms out front and then both arms back cross-country skiing vibes (4:58)

pokey - alternates one arm up one arm down giving drama, michael jackson, disco vibes (1:01, 1:09, 1:19, 3:01)

they each start 'out of the depths of hell and back' doing their own dance and then switch around doing each others dances until 'you summon us once, you summon us twice'

when I compared it to the digital ticket version and I was able to determine the exact order of each Lord's choreography

so i made a chart for yall who wanna learn the summoning choreography under the cut.

i need to sleep

glossary of dance moves and the shorthand i used for them.

im not a choreographer. i am bad at describing how people move in space. so. I used timestamps from the reference video from before. please god do not follow my mediocre descriptions - watch the people in the video do it and copy them.

W - Wiggly (0:58, 1:52)

N - Nibbly (1:06, 1:15)

B - Blinky (1:12, 4:53)

T - Tinky (4:58)

P - Pokey (1:01, 1:09, 1:19, 3:01)

SS - shoulder shimmy (1:21, 4:05, 5:12) (the lords in black-ah, the lords in black-ah)

JN - jerky nod (1:25, 2:26, 5:06) (the devil has won it can't be undone)

KK - karate kid (wax on/wax off) (2:29)

KKT - karate kid tree edition - there’s one wax on for each side and then they do a thing in the middle that looks kinda like a tree. Idk how else to describe it thats why i add timestamps. (5:00)

WW - whatever we want (2:57)

TR - tra la la la (the skip they do on Stephanie has got a gun) (4:31) (it's hard to see in this version, i highly recommend checking out the digital ticket version if possible. they show this move first in the proshot bc they focus entirely on steph for the next line, but it does go second in order behind KK - you can see jon start to do KK at the transition into chunk 5 in the ref video, and at the end of the chunk he's bent forward bc he just got done doing the bowing part at the end of TR (you can see pokey doing that like 3 seconds earlier after nibbly does the skipping part)

i divided the song into chunks based on when the singing/dancing starts & stops.

Chunk 1 (0:58-1:31)

Chunk 2 (1:52-2:00)

Chunk 3 (2:26-2:32)

Chunk 4 (2:57-3:04)

(they don't dance on 'we don't give a shit about your phone' but it's b/w these two chunks in case you're interested)

Chunk 5 (4:31-4:37)

Chunk 6 (4:53-end)

The dance changes every two lines-ish, and each time they all change together. they all do the same thing for chunks 3-5 so I only included it on the first one (Pokey)

each lord in black does each move a lil differently so don't sweat if you can't do it the exact same way as the one (1) example I was able to find of x move in the proshot lol

[im-not-a-l0ser]

I've posted a few videos of me singing, and one of my ig moots, Multi_Fandom_Geek_ has even done variations if songs like Hell of a Ride that I would love to cover.

But I have never actualt, seriously contemplated doing a full fledged, edited, layered cover of anything until NPMD

I'm specifically thinking of doing covers of Dirty Dudes Must Die, High School is Killing Me, and Literal Monster. So, yknow, if you're thinking of making a karaoke track for any of the NPMD songs.... I'd really like these.
