collaboration spotlight — Don't Make Me by Malinda

In all of the fluffy animated fairy tale adaptations that have been made over the past century, it's often been glossed over that the original stories were cautionary tales. Girls were warned and prepared for dealing with potentially abusive husbands. The best case scenario would be reaching a respectful understanding, but sometimes more drastic measures might become necessary. When a girl's patience and forbearance hit their limits, she has every right to fight back in any way she can. Even if it makes others judge her for it.

Details:

title: Don't Make Me

performers: Malinda, feat. Thomas Sanders; Anna Ricks & Valerie Torres-Rosario (ladies-in-waiting); Leo Anderson & Adam Paul (guards)

written & arranged by: Malinda Reese, Hannah Tobias, & Johnny Deltoro

video by: PattyCake Productions

release date: 11 October 2019

My favorite bits:

the cheerful, lilting intro narration

Malinda's sultry humming leading into the first verse

all the visual parallels between the happy wedding flashbacks and the dark aftermath — the goblets, the dip, removing her tiara

♫ "Can I offer you a little salt for that wound?" ♫ sung with such condescension

her delicate, plaintive tone on the first instance of ♫ "Don't make me be the bad guy" ♫

the contrast of the sinister tone of the men plotting over a stick figure drawing

♫ "Your offering's empty, godless, and cold" ♫, oof

the ladies' superhero-style costume change sequence

the muffled filter on the start of the third chorus to allow more focus on the fight scene

matching the timing of the sword strikes with the beat 🤺

Malinda's fabulous descending belted run

the ladies facing down the armed guards with their bare fists

the crunchy counterpoint ♫ "Don't make me be the bad guy" ♫ as the guard is flipped onto the bed

Thomas's scream when he's tossed from the parapet

that final mirror shot showing the bride in white with her innocence stripped away opposite the unrepentant widow in black

Trivia:

This video was filmed at The Howey Mansion, a location PattyCake had used several times for their "Unexpected Musicals" series.

It was co-directed by Malinda and Tony, while Layne served as both cinematographer and editor.

The shoot day spanned about 13 hours, all of which had been carefully storyboarded in advance by Tony and Layne to ensure they got everything they needed as efficiently as possible.

Fight choreographer Danny Cackley had provided plenty of rehearsal for the combatants, as well as pre-visualization footage for the production team.

The video racked up 200,000 views in just a few days, and Malinda posted a fun behind the scenes video on her Instagram to celebrate.

The white gown was Malinda's mother's wedding dress, and she was a little surprised that her mom actually trusted her to bring it to Florida and run around a mansion in it.

PattyCake fans might recognize the blonde lady-in-waiting as Anna Ricks, who plays Aurora in their "Princess Academy" series.

Malinda, Hannah, and Johnny also released an acoustic version of the song, which gives it a more introspective feel.

Hey everyone!

You probably don't know me, but I'm Zel from @zelink-stan02 ! I figured I'd make this side blog to post about my favorite musicians and bands! My main is full up with visual media fandom stuff and other random shit, and posting about music feels a little out of place for some reason, like it just adds too much to the chaos, so here we are!

DISCLAIMER: I do not claim to be an expert, I know pretty much nothing about musical theory or production or anything like that, I don't know how to play any instruments, I can only passably sing. I just really love music, it's an important and permanent fixture in my life, and I have been involved in bandom for over a decade at this point. This is just a place to yap about music and the people that make it!

I'll post about all sorts of stuff spanning decades and across genres, but let's be honest, it's probably gonna mainly be all about Sleep Token. The eepy number bois are my faves. These are who I'll probably gush about most often though (this list will be updated periodically):

Sleep Token (I do not know their identities and I do not want to know. I deeply respect them and their anonymity, as many other fans do. If you post about their personal info or share it here, you will IMMEDIATELY be blocked)

Waterparks

PVRIS

Paramore

Janani K. Jha

MALINDA

Taylor Swift

Conan Gray

Olivia Rodrigo

Linkin Park (Please don't bring any discourse here. I support Emily, so if you wanna hate on her or the guys, then just don't interact with this blog)

Noah Kahan

EPIC: the Musical and it's awesome cast

Chappell Roan

Honey Revenge

Magnolia Park

Bad Omens

Spiritbox

Chase Petra

Bring Me The Horizon

Sleeping With Sirens

Pierce The Veil

As for what kinds of posts will be here:

Lots of reblogs (art, text posts, gifs, concert footage, etc.)

Shit posts and just rambles about Awsten Knight and how chaotic he is or what I think of Chappell's most recent look (newsflash, I will love all of them)

My thoughts/opinions, and maybe some analysis if I'm feelin *fancy*

[xhypiseepyx]
