Some INNER SANCTUM (1991) atmospherics for your perusal.

File under: Tanya Roberts, Fred Olen Ray, Erotic Thriller.

I loved this world so much - the colours, the sounds, general ambience - going home to my apartment each night in mega building H10.

I hope that the sequel expands on the density of Night City as it feels like we've barely scratched the surface.

I’ve been going through all the lovely comments on my latest yt video and made a list on MUBI of every nightclub featured, along with the suggestions. Any others I should include? mubi.com/en/lists/nig...

Beautiful photos from behind the scenes of 1991's Point Break via the BFI. Can't believe I missed these during research!

YouTube video by Eleven Yearz Why Do Nightclubs in Movies Look Like That?

One of the best things about YouTube is meticulously made video essays like this one from @elevenyearz.bsky.social. that looks at the evolution of the presentation of Nightclubs in film and how it relates to real world clubbing culture. Highly recommended viewing. youtu.be/Ye3dTsZReK8?...

Eleven Yearz Slow moving images about popular culture. I create videos that are thoroughly researched, unconventional & heartfelt. All enquiries: elevenyearz11@gmail.com

8/8 So yeah, just a few short takes on what I’ve learned throughout my YouTube career so far. Feel free to check out the channel if you’re curious 🖤 youtube.com/elevenyearz

7/8 And finally: pacing. Respect your viewers’ time. “It gets really good halfway through” should never be a mindset. The video should be engaging and “good” from the start — visually, sonically, and narratively. Take your time in the making process. It’s a marathon, not a race.

6/8 Speaking of evergreen videos — choose topics that mean something to you. I know that advice gets thrown around a lot, but it’s true. You’ll be writing & editing for hours, so would you rather spend that time working on something genuinely fulfilling, or chasing trends?

5/8 I tested a 2nd + 3rd thumbnail & the views immediately picked up. The first had no urgency, the second was confusing with a weak central image — so for the third, I used the Hellraiser font & made that the focus. The striking blood-red line also helped centre the composition.

4/8 Thumbnail A/B testing is a powerful tool. For example, with my Hellraiser bus stop video, views stagnated after just a few weeks — which is odd for an evergreen topic like that…

3/8 This brings me to the next point — I didn’t realise my bass levels were too high until someone in the comments pointed it out (thank you!). Read, listen & respond productively to criticism in the comments.

2/8 Having a good mic matters — but having good levels matters more. My first few videos had way too much bass, which I never noticed. Listen back to your video on different devices, ideally the ones most popular with your viewers:
Studio > Analytics > Audience > Device type

YouTube video by Eleven Yearz A New Way of Seeing Last Action Hero

1/8 Today marks 5 years since my first YouTube video — an exploration of the misunderstood 1993 film Last Action Hero. Though I was fortunate to hit 250k views on my first upload, I’ve come a long way creatively since then & learned a lot over the years 🧵 youtu.be/VqRNfkzGF8c

Omg no way

Today I learned about the ‘idol that didn’t exist’ Haga Yui thanks to Eleven Yearz on YouTube.

This was the first and only single: youtu.be/L-Rwobqtbfs?... This is crazily modern for 1990. S/A/W but ridiculously staccato with early hyperpop elements.

Astonishing stuff. @schlagerkaty.bsky.social

Wish I was here. Some of cinema's greatest nightclubs

YouTube video by RED Lion Movie Shorts RoboCop (1987) - Night Club Arresting Scene (1080p) FULL HD

Love this! The club scene in ROBOCOP was filmed at Starck Club in Dallas TX though the art dept did add the neon bits but the sunken dance floor & industrial grates along with the “Starck Monument” were original architectural elements ❤️
