    HASHTAGS #MonsterMash #Halloween #Bass
    Arranged, Produced, Filmed, Performed, and Edited by Geoff Castellucci
    Production Manager, Costuming and Cameo - Kathy Castellucci
    Choreography - Matthew “Bucky” Buckner - / gamerdadbucky
    Audio Mix - Ed Boyer
    Filmed at Pattycake Productions Studio - Special thanks to Layne Stein and Tony Wakim for their amazing set and all of their help. / pattycakestudiospace
    I also want to send out a huge thanks to Rick Underwood. This video had to be re-filmed due to several issues with the original footage. Rick did some incredible makeup for the first shoot, but sadly our schedules did not align for the reshoot and we weren’t able to feature his amazing work. Kathy stepped in and tried her very best to make me look like the living dead. I was already exhausted so it didn’t take much.

    I would like to draw your attention to Kathy twitching each time Geoff hits a low note, pretty much embodying how we all react to those notes... 😄 (I caught two, 1:35 and 2:17, but maybe there are more…?)
    Do yourselves a favour and watch this *at least* five times in a row, focusing on the whole ensemble and then each Geoff in turn. Each Geoff has his own unique voice and personality. I’m particularly entertained by Wolfman Geoff in the middle, who was so amazed that his hips were moving in time to the music, and then realized he loved it. (Also, have you ever seen a cuter Dracula gesture (1:33)? I think not.) Narrator Geoff had some great looks and moves throughout too, even when he wasn't vocalizing - the perfectly timed move at 2:00 was, well, perfect.
    Now the music stuffs. The instrumentation on this song is so freaking enjoyable. It’s bouncy and jaunty and buoyant, just what you’d (not) expect in a monster song. And who knew that Für Elise would make such a great ragtime riff! Lyrically, I loved how in the first and second choruses, the monsters were the “backup singers” while the Narrator took the lead, but in the third chorus, the roles were reversed. It’s little things like this that keep Geoff’s songs fresh and interesting and unpredictable.
    Geoff, you are a master at incorporating details, little or big, for us to find. It’s like a treasure hunt…but the treasure, truly, is this song.

He has begun playing with his voice and it was amazing to be able to show him what years of training and practice of control of your voice can do. We absolutely love listening to you and other artists sing together and practice new voice techniques we learn together. Thank you for helping me to continue to inspire my son's love for music.

      Plus each of the "doubles" are dressed as and acts like one of the monsters--the leftmost double is Dracula, the one to the right is Frankenstein's monster, and the middle is the Wolfman (though that's admittedly based on the behavioral tics, I've not actually seen the original film for that particular monster.)
      That would also leave Geoff as Victor and Kathy as Elizabeth, though I suppose, given some of the more modern takes (and one of those in particular), she could also be the monster's bride...

    • @TSIRKLAND
      @TSIRKLAND 2 роки тому

      The quirky, jerky effect is achieved by filming at slightly slower than normal speed, then playing sped up to regular tempo. It can be done subtly (as it is here) or more obvious, depending on how much slower you record. It's a really cool effect, that is used in music videos from time to time in different contexts. VoicePlay (Geoff's group) used it for sure in "Grim Grinning Ghosts." Broken Peach used it in their "Tainted Love" video. Weird Al used it in "White and Nerdy." There are many other examples...

    Okay, I have to admit I have watched this I think almost 10 times or more.. I watched each of the Geoffs and even watched Kathy. Each one of the Geoffs had their own personality and little quirks. Like the Wolfman Geoff (the middle one) with the cute scratching of the "fur" and the coy smile when he began to move to the music with hips... The Monster Geoff had a few of his own quirks, one being how his wave was when the two danced away. The Dracula Geoff had a cute gesture and even when he spoke of "What ever happened to.." had a look on his face of confusion. As for the narrator, Geoff, just as Angie said below just had expressions and a personalty that tied it all together.
    As for Kathy twitching, that was a great thing. And I loved when she screamed bringing the "Bride" to life. It was a great touch.
    I LOVED the Bach toccata and fugue because when I first watched it and it got to the "La la la" section, I was like wait; I know this! And for Für Elise to be a great riff of ragtime style was awesome.
    Watching you in your videos is like a treasure trove of just fun and great music. I know I will watch this again and find something else that amazes me.

    Geoff is great at singing with his hands, it's one of my favorite parts of watching anything he's done. But the backup Geoffs had to stick to their sweet chorography, so the Lead/Mad Scientist Geoff did it for them at 2:04.
    I can't decide if that's my favorite part, or the idea that the Mad Scientist was just sitting there, reading, waiting for his beautiful dance partner to wake up, because he had ALREADY danced with her until she dropped. That's why she was draped across the couch so awkwardly, and why she twitched on his deep drop at 1:34.
