<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Makesh shense, right?


*Plays a very brief jingle that sounds like the kind of tune you’d hear after a gag in an old cartoon*
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

What can I say? Comes with the territory!
*Rolls an apple across my shoulders, down my arm, and then tosses it into my mouth, downing it in one bite*
Zhat shaid, being parcth of my charasher givesh me a lo of leeway.


*Slowly shifts my gaze down to the base of the guitar, clearly in deep, questioning thought*
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

It's kind of funny you ask, but the long and short of it is that if it's not entertaining, my contracts get canceled, I get to do even less, and we all end up with a sad Surprise!.


The “almost making sense” thing seems way more apparent after I actually mention it.
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

You’ve caught on to my scheme! I can’t just poof up anything I want out there—that would be deus ex machina and a terrible writing practice.
*Karate chops into my open palm with each word*
It has to be thematic. It has to be clever. It has to be interesting.


How is an ability dictated by those parameters? Is it a self imposed restriction? Or regulated by a higher power of some kind?
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Yeah, so—
*Closes the camcorder*
Great question! No. Well, kinda yes. It’s complicated.
*Lifts my hand and pinches my fingers in a smooth motion, like pinning an object to a cork board*
I can only do that if it’s convenient and almost makes sense.


*Blinks*
I mean, feels like something like that would always be convenient. And you seem to always almost make sense.
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

How about noir?
*Pulls out a handheld camcorder with an integrated display that supports a surprisingly high resolution and flips through several clips*


Actually, better question. Can you just drum up media on a whim that didn’t exist before? I know that audio clip wasn’t me and was just you and all, but there’s no way you had that on hand regardless.
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Yeah! What kind of genres do you like?


Don’t care about genre if the stuff is quality.
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Now I’m just buzzing with all kinds of ideas. Imagine all the cool shots!


Hmm. You got examples of stuff you’ve shot?
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

That’s a music video right there!


It’s definitely something, Cinematographer. That’s for sure.
<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Ooh, you could mount a camera to your head and get a first-person shot! That’d be super!


Could get it to look more cinematic if I had a good jetpack pilot or someone who can naturally fly well to fly alongside me with the camera. Ooh, that’s good…
