  1. A good one, Niktom, but I liked more when you used to adjust the songs to the characters. “Bicycle” was better… But the idea for the “Grievous-guitar” is very cool!

    Not sure what you mean… if your referring to me changing lyrics, I don’t do that. The “Star Wars” line in Bicycle is actually there as is, I didn’t change anything. If your referring to songs matching the aspects of the characters then I think these match fairly well. We Will Rock you has always had a football stadium battle cry sound… good way of getting ready for war. Bicycle is still my favorite too, nothing better than senseless violence! Thanks for the comment on the guitar.

  3. I love the weekend specials; they are my favorites on YakPub. I am curious… How long does it take to make one of these? Are they called ‘weekend specials’ because you work a whole weekend on them? LOL…

  4. Thanks! As far as time… well it really depends. Here is an older summary of what all goes into one. This was written just after I finished Talent Night. They can usually take from 2 to 24 hrs worth of work. I think Bicycle took only about 2 to 3 hours. Of course none of these times I’m giving you include planning. I may plan a video for months before ever “working” on it. The “Weekend Special” is left over from the very first one done (Space Cowboy) which was actually started, finished, and posted on a weekend. Since then though, most have been posted on weekdays. I just like the name so it has stayed. However, in many cases you are right… it does take most of a weekend to get one finished.

  5. “If you’re referring to songs matching the aspects of the characters then I think these match fairly well.” – Yeah, no doubt about that, I just meant I liked it more when there were more different characters in one weekend special 🙂 And I know about the SW line in “Bicycle” – that’s probably the only thing I didn’t like about Freddy M. and I LOVED the way you made it 🙂

  6. Got ya… you are in luck my friend! A Talent Night III is in the works. Don’t hold your breath though, it may be a couple of months. I do have all the songs selected along with the characters. Starting to arrange and splice the music together then it’s time to shoot. Thing is though Talent Nights wear me out! Lots of time involved… but it’s coming!
