This is Halloween - Nightmare Before Christmas - WORKTAPE EXCERPT

[@Gao8lack]

This is so cursed for me and at the same time so facinating

[@webzter2661]

I know 0:20 is most likely a technological error in the production stages but man it sounds badass in a way, I don't know why.

[@Gao8lack]

Its like those creepy VHS tapes arround.

[@daybreakknight6495]

It was kind of seeing this without some of the elements, like the ghosts, Jack's epic intro or the Mayor. But I can see this as the perfect prototype! It shows the movie in its infancy ^^

[@a.l.a.s.t-g.i.r8632]

Make note that this version has vocals for the kids at (2:08). Although the animation for them singing after the 2 adult's sing IS there, the voices are not in the final product. It may have been a change so far in to production that they didn't have the time to reanimated that scene, or maybe they misplaced the audio for the kids. It's still unknown why this is missing in the theatrical release of the movie. If anything, it may have been an artistic choice that went pass the director for all we know.

[@webzter2661]

Kinda sad that they took those voice lines out. The three children, though the Mummy isn't in this shot, are my favorite background characters in the film and it sounds more complete with their vocals in the background in this early demo. It's interesting that they didn't make it in though.

@@webzter2661 If it’s any consultation, almost every other countries dub remembered to include it.

[@saschaandrekonig3122]

If you listen closely at the music you notice that it's the same music used in the Danny Elfman demo version of the song.

[@jolenaubin9877]

I loved it!

[@christinaworden100]

This looks like it’s 100000000 years old

[@jalanthompson9955]

Right 😮

[@chairmannom9507]

@Michael Charlonis and! It's a workprint directly from a tape!!

[@aliciaandfam1111]

Property of skelleton prod

[@saschaandrekonig3122]

1 like if you agree that the song sounds more epic in the workprint then in the final product.

[@CommanderFuckwit]

I think it's because of the extra brass and bells from Elfman's Demo and the classic vocals from the final film.

This also didn't have the sound effects for example the sound the mayor makes when he turn sad of happy

[@shawnmulligan2894]

Ingrid Rodriguez It also doesn't have the shadows of the tombstones and the ghosts at the beginning.

[@a.l.a.s.t-g.i.r8632]

@@shawnmulligan2894 this was because this was they work on animation last, this must have been a really early work print. This would explain why most of the stop motion part of the video is missing and some of the animation was rough towards the end.

[@garrettcarter2959]

Wait. If the Shadow on the Moon isn't post-production animation, then how did they do it? Are you saying they switched out animation cells in front of the moon on set? That's awesome.

[@rushhq0]

I think they made the black cells and projected each one to the moon

[@aliciaandfam1111]

Guess what there's static Guess what that means it's 10000000. Years old

[@aliciaandfam1111]

Did you notice that oogie boogies shadow voice is different

[@timmyandbrunsonauctionsand2398]

Maybe they added in the animations after finishing the stop motion part

[@Universe1380]

Alternative title: this is Halloween but it’s recorded by a bank security camera

[@shawnmulligan2894]

The music at 0:59 sounds different than the final version...

[@shawnmulligan2894]

Oogie Boogie's voice is different as well.

[@Janjauwu]

maybe because is a demo..and the oogie boogie maybe there was no oficcial voice actor at that time

[@eamaeg]

OH YOU THINK

[@blueraptorfsp]

Oogie was voiced by Danny Elfman before Ken Page was hired.

[@itzorin600]

@@shawnmulligan2894 because that's Danny elfman's voice and he never used that voice again untill corpse Bride

[@rightontracks10]

What's that blurred out thing in the top left corner?

[@peadaryt]

Yeah I wanna know what that is 😂

[@misterartist1603]

Jill Jacobs.

[@christinaworden100]

1:46 what

[@blueraptorfsp]

It's Danny Elfman singing voice of Jack he did the Demo for Oogie before Ken Page got on board and he even did a cover of Oogies song as a Demo

[@itzorin600]

And yeah his oogie boogie sounds demonic and it's funny enough he used the exact same voice when he did Bojangles in corpse Bride

[@whatsha2532]

Where did you get all of the work prints from?

[@mrcupcake_shorts]

0:20 Thats a Sign Thats old AF

[@angelfabianmesina6099]

Wow

[@Oswald001]

This is Halloween but every time they say Halloween it gets more worse til the point they have to use storyboards

[@Thatrobotkidoffical]

And then just audio and then there’s nothing

[@boomiestboxever9468]

Bruh this made in 197 B.C. Or smt

[@rileyohrt7256]

And why exactly did they change oogie boogies voice?

[@Thatrobotkidoffical]

Idk

[@stinkypoopypoopcan]

Maybe ken page were busy with them things.

[@disneyboy3030]

​@@stinkypoopypoopcanit may also have because he wasn't casted yet. In fact his casting has a history of his own.
