Happy anniversary, Danger Days! About a year ago, My Chemical Romance introduced the world of the fabulous killjoys. We made a video to celebrate!

:target: Link to watch our video: Killjoys, Make Some Noise! (MCR Fan Tribute) :target:

:bulletred: A shoot with us is never complete without bloopers! :pointr: [link]

:new: Posted a new dA journal entry with photo outtakes
We present our first attempt at video!We're venturing (clumsily) into another medium! Video! Here it is!

Killjoys, Make Some Noise!
Click here to watch the video!

I know there's room for much improvement, but we're quite happy with it for our first piece of video work! :D I actually picked up After Effects for the first time just to be able to edit this video — to fix the colors and add the text and lasers and stuff. It was fun!

Happy anniversary, Danger Days! On November 22, 2010 My Chemical Romance introduced the world of the fabulous killjoys. One year later, we're still here singing it to the world in our own way!


Some background info:note: For those of yo

If you've seen MCR's video for "Na Na Na", that was the basis for our work. We wanted to do our own take on it, just doing a random fun video of ourselves being killjoys and fighting our own little battles and celebrating who we are and the way we stick by each other no matter what.

We all helped each other put together our costumes, directed each other's scenes, and just had a criminal amount of fun at the shoot!

:note: For those of you who aren’t familiar with this usage of the term killjoys — it’s based on the My Chemical Romance album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys. A description that was given on this very informative post goes like this:

“The killjoys are the survivalists, the one trying to bring the truth, no matter how bad it is, thus being a “killjoy” in the literal sense, destroying the notion that everything is perfect as BL/i portrays it to be. Their world is dirty, fast, colorful and violent – abandoned buildings, graffiti, brightly colored masks, ray guns and biker jackets. It is unknown if the killjoys are the heroes or the villains – they are just trying to survive and get the truth out there.”

I believe the truth that my friends and I constantly uplift is this: It’s okay to be you. It’s okay to be weird. It’s okay to have fun by doing silly things. Other people’s opinion of you shouldn’t matter. Don't miss out on opportunities to do things you love just because you don't want other people saying mean things about you. It's your life and your time, and it's YOU who has to live with the consequences of your decisions so make them for yourself. You should always strive to make yourself happy over all others. You will find people out there who will love you for who you are. Friends never let friends do stupid things — alone. Be yourself and be kind. Things will get better. They did for us, and they can for you.
