Voiceplay Visuals: Halo Theme

I've never played any Halo games before, ever (though I've heard of it, obviously), and this isn't one I watch/listen to very often, but I knew there would be a few things for me to talk about, not just in regards to the actual video, but also in regards to the history of Voiceplay (formerly known as 4:2:Five).

The video was uploaded on the 2nd of October, 2021, and features Scott Porter, who was a founding member of "4:2:Five" (Geoff and Layne are the only two OGs left in the group), and these days is a bit of a small-scale actor, starring in series like Friday Night Lights (the show, not the movie), and Ginny & Georgia. The video was dedicated to Voiceplay's friend and collaborator, Rek Dunn, whom Scott talks about in a segment at the end of the video (which I shall talk about as well, because, well, it gives me more to talk about).

But anyway, let's actually start including some screencaps, shall we?

Holy apocalypse doomsday Batman!

(I swear I'm not actually making fun of the outfits, I just don't really have any specific thoughts on the costuming here, other than there was obviously a theme/vibe/aesthetic they were going for here, and they basically nailed it (and I love Cesar's jacket))

Is it just me or is there a sense of pain/sorrow in Geoff's eyes during a lot of this video? 💔 (he was no doubt thinking of Rek, and I'm sure Layne, Scott, and Eli were thinking about him the whole time as well)

(Also you think this is sad? Well it is, but I've never even watched the video for The Heart Of Life, because I know the context of it, and I've listened to it on Spotify, and the cover alone is heartbreaking enough - watching the video might actually make me tear up)

The editing work on this video is insanely good. This was Layne's arrangement and Layne's video, so I guess it was his editing job as well? There are so many quick cuts and zooms and vocalists popping in and out of sight! And all timed to the arrangement perfectly, of course.

Just to keep viewers on their toes (ayyyy 👉👉)

Those shoes are definitely cool. Who was wearing them, I wonder?

Cesar hitting us with the side-eye!

(Also, probably unintentional, but him being the only one not actually looking to the side (though his head is turned that way) highlights the fact that he is the youngest and newest member. Though undoubtedly a brilliant fit for the group and beloved by fans, he doesn't have the history that the rest of the guys do).

"Red team!"

"Blue team!"

So here's the thing: "Voiceplay" actually just started off as a traditional barbershop-quartet acapella singing group with Geoff, Layne, Earl (yes, he was a founding member (that's why it hurt so much when he left)), and another guy (Michael/Mykhal(?) Kilgore or something like that?). Layne was the baritone of the group. The group decided to add a fifth member, a beatboxer, after being inspired by the group Rockapella, and that fifth member was Scott Porter. They called themselves "4:2:Five", because, literally, they went from 4 to 5 members (they didn't become "Voiceplay" till 2011 or 2012). When Scott left the group to go pursue an acting career, Layne took over as the beatboxer/vocal percussionist (and was shown the ropes by Geoff, actually), and he's stuck to it ever since!

All that to say, this is a fun little moment of OG-beatboxer vs current-beatboxer 😁

Really brilliant effects/editing for this one

So that's the actual acapella bit of the video, now time for the elaboration/dedication at the end from Scott! (Also I really love his shirt)

Surprise! Old Voiceplay/4:2:Five pictures! And by "old" I mean look how young they are! I'm guessing that's Earl on the far left, that's definitely Geoff next to him (my god look at how short his hair used to be!), and that's Layne in the middle (he really was always that tall huh)

Look at them!!! (Layne on the left end, Geoff on the right end)

Apparently the first ever Halo game released, Halo: Combat Evolved, was released in November 2001, so this photo is probably from either late 2001 or sometime in 2002. Maybe a year or two later, but one way another, this is Layne and Geoff in their very early 20s (and look at them now! Aged like fine wine I tell ya.)

Selfies from the Aca Top 10 Disney Sidekicks video!

Rest in peace, Rek 💜

(Also I don't know anything about Halo but apparently this video/arrangement was impressive enough for the actual official Halo Youtube channel to comment on it and call it "legendary", as well as a comment from the guy who wrote the theme in the first place, so yeah damn well done guys)

Not exactly a typical Voiceplay Visuals post, but it was one I didn't want to skip over, and for the next post we will be back to our usual fun theatrical awesomeness! Stay tuned!

List 5 things that make you happy, then send this question to the last 10 people who liked/reblogged one of your posts.

Thanks so much, @helix-enterprises117 and @mrtobenamedlater for including me!

When I'm playing a video game, sitting here totally alone, not playing co-op or anything, if something good/fun/random happens, I say out loud some variation of, "Chat, check that out. Can you believe that just happened?" like I'm streaming on Twitch or something. Then I laugh, just 'cause. 🤷‍♀️😂

My tol and smol ships. I've loved those who are NOT tol and smol, of course, but I just have a particular love for those who are.

Kara/Luther, Detroit: Become Human

John-117/Talia, Halo the series

Kai-125/Miranda, Halo the series

Frank West/Leah Stein, Dead Rising (Okay, so Frank's not super tol, nor Leah super smol but my man is BURLY, so I'ma call this one accurate, lol).

Frank showing off his thiccc boi status, lol! 😇

3. Managing to 100% a game.

I just have 4 more achievements for Detroit: Become Human to go and I'm about to start the playthrough that should get all of them. 🤞😣🤞Dead Rising has 2 left but they're considerable: 5 Day Survivor and 7 Day Survivor. 5 Day Survivor means playing for 12 hours straight without dying once and without the ability to save. 7 Day Survivor is the same but takes 14 hours. They're both literally real life endurance challenges. Even still, I'm working up a strategy and plan on trying it one day. Just got to make sure I have my meals already planned and ready and that my family knows what I'm doing. I just love the game so much, I'd like to see if I can do it. And I'd like the Laser Sword you get for 5 Day Survivor (it's a lightsaber without the name, lol) and the boxer shorts with heart on them for 7DS. And just to know I was able to figure out a way to conquer them both.

I'll never be able to 100% the Halo Master Chief Collection simply because there are a lot of achievements requiring co-op play. Even without that, I have no desire to try and play LASO and I can't do the ones for "play the entire game on Legendary under 3 hours" even on the game that I'm absolute strongest at (Reach). I can play fast or I can play Legendary, just not both at the same time. 🤷‍♀️

I honestly never thought I'd beat even one modern game on Easy and now being able to complete or nearly complete 4 of them has made me so happy and proud. (I have a bit of a tremor in my hands so I have to adapt my play to account for that.)

4. The Halo theme. 'nuff said. When the game has written itself into your DNA, this song is part of your blood and bones.

5. Funny game glitches/random occurrences. Anything that's not really supposed to happen but then it does and there's something just so silly and ridiculous about it? Yeah, that's my jam!

Sara Ryder, the Pathfinder from Mass Effect: Andromeda, spending an entire gaming session, crouching over and talking to everybody's, um, belt buckles, will NEVER not make me laugh! 😂

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KING 🗣🗣🗣

[aventurineswife]

Sunday had always carried himself with an air of calm detachment, but tonight, in the quiet stillness of the Astral Express, there was something different in his demeanor. The weight he usually bore with stoic grace seemed to dissolve, leaving only a man—flawed, yearning, and far too human.

The private quarters were dimly lit, the golden glow of his halo casting shifting shadows on the walls. You stood before him, uncertain but unable to look away as his gaze—those irises marked by navy pupils—lingered on you with a rare intensity. His wings twitched, feathers ruffling slightly, betraying the emotions he fought to contain.

“You don’t have to stay,” he murmured, his voice low and soft, like a breeze carrying secrets. But even as he said it, his hand lingered at your wrist, his thumb brushing against your pulse.

“And leave you like this?” you whispered, tilting your head. “Sunday… I want to stay.”

His composure faltered, and for a moment, the mask slipped. His lips parted as if to protest, but the words died before they could form. Instead, he took a slow step closer, the soft fabric of his scarf brushing against you as his proximity stole the air between you both.

“Then let me be selfish,” he said, the words trembling on the edge of a plea.

His hands cupped your face with a tenderness that felt almost reverent, his touch as light as the flutter of his wings. When his lips met yours, it was hesitant at first, like a man unsure if he deserved this solace. But as you leaned into him, matching his hesitance with quiet assurance, the kiss deepened, blossoming into something neither of you could deny.

The warmth of his body pressed against yours, the energy of his halo crackling faintly in the charged air. His gloves were cast aside, and the bare touch of his hands trailing down your sides sent a shiver through you. Each caress felt deliberate, a silent promise carried in every movement.

“Tell me,” he whispered against your lips, his breath mingling with yours. “Tell me this is real. That I’m not lost in a dream again.”

“It’s real,” you assured him, your fingers tangling in his hair. “I’m here, and so are you.”

His forehead rested against yours, golden eyes searching yours for any hint of doubt. Finding none, he exhaled, his tension melting into something softer, more vulnerable. He guided you to the bed with a gentleness that spoke of a man afraid to break something precious, every touch imbued with a care that made your heart ache.

Under his touch, the world fell away, leaving only the two of you—no past, no guilt, no lingering pain. Just Sunday, unguarded and whole, and you, willing to show him he could be loved not as a symbol or savior but as himself.

And in that quiet night, amid whispered confessions and shared warmth, Sunday allowed himself to believe it.

Please don't check the tags, I'm too embarrassed at myself... 🧍‍♀️😔🙏
