[@MoonlightCottageASMR]

Good evening! Welcome to the second part of the ASMR Film Noir! I'm trying to include more "storyline" in some of my roleplays, I hope you like it :) As always, subtitles highly appreciated: amara.org/videos/gsOMtOALMxJ5/info/you-are-the-witness-asmr-film-noir-ii-detective-roleplay-soft-spoken/ Timestamps: 00:00 I thought I had turned over a new leaf (Intro / inner monologue) 02:58 Five murders (unintelligible whispers) 04:18 I guess I owe you a drink now (phone call) 07:41 Wrong place, wrong time, huh?

(Epilogue / radio speech & phone call)

[@lunatus3097]

This might be your best video to date, I loved the plot!

[@ShinnoEli]

Hooray!! I was really hoping for a sequel to that one... 🥰

[@jeanielegendre6057]

Nicely done with the storyline! A romance between unlikely equals has blossomed … Sigh. 💗

[@bradruxton3742]

Diane, you are an incredible artist. I love the continuations that you've done recently. Please, more of this!

[@anotherjellyfish1450]

Like it? We LOVE it.

[@TinglesmithASMR]

What an honor it was to be a small part of this work of art, thank you my friend! It looks amazing!

[@MoonlightCottageASMR]

As always, your acting skills are much appreciated! :-D

[@Hard_Car_Life]

Tinglesmith has the best male ASMR voice on KZbin. Love his "blade runner" series ! He's quite sexy really.

[@tracyjoe8950]

I always love hearing your voice in collaboration! ❤❤❤

[@ShinyMars7]

Oh my god, now I understand how the male voice sounds so professional!!! Two ASMR geniuses together :0

[@ChelseaK1391]

Your voice sounds like misha collins when he speaks

[@albinwhisperland]

I hope viewers know just how difficult it is to have your final product be in Black and White - lighting and contrast becomes so important! So the fact that your balances of these look PERFECT and effortless... I'm always just so amazed by your skills. In addition I love the warm sepia tone behind everything, it really feels like I'm watching a vintage detective show! Okay now everyone SHHHHHHHH time for me to snuggle in and watch my stories 🥰🥰

[@MoonlightCottageASMR]

Thank you so much sweet Alb 😘

[@shay2620]

Yay! I love ALB in whisper land ❤ both of you ladies are my go to 💪💪💪 🫶🏽

I can do the same thing with stock filters in Windows Movie Maker. These videos are good, no doubt, but spare us the specialized artsy fartsy elitist content creator crap.

[@voiceoftheparanoid]

​@@JPR-78I'll never understand comments like these where the aggression is entirely unprompted and unwarranted. This is an age old response to this situation, but really, if you can do the same thing, why don't you just do it instead of rudely commenting about it?

[@voiceoftheparanoid]

Also genuinely asking how was she being elitist 😭😭

[@thecottagelibrary]

The intro made me forget I wasn't watching a movie! The story is compelling, the acting is brilliant, the setup and props are more than accurate and the filming and editing are of a professional level and quality. I will watch it again now and enjoy the rest of the video! Thank you, Diane, for yet another masterpiece and all the hard work you put into everything you create.

[@Clyde-S-Wilcox]

... sorry why isn't this a movie?

[@thefirephoenix7210]

I never thought a good love story with a bitter sweet ending can be put in a 30 minute video. Thank you for your great cinematic and story writting skills.

[@MaggieGirl8]

It’s such a trope in noirs for the lady private detective and police investigator to fall for each other (Ms. Fisher’s Murder Mysteries and Ms. Scarlett and the Duke as two recent examples). So glad it was included, and done so well!!

[@AutumnCozy]

Thank you so much for including me in this masterpiece, Diane! Goodness, your attention to detail and artistry is unmatched! This turned out amazing!

[@MoonlightCottageASMR]

❣️

[@erelkey]

That eyebrow raise/reaction at 5:15 during the phone call is Oscar worthy. I 100% forgot I was not watching a tv show or movie. This is amazing! Thank you!

[@HBox-t7h]

Hollywood needs to take notes! We’ve lost the magic of film to overwhelming CGI. We need new stories and perspectives like this one! Pure genius! I love this 💕

[@Ophelia11]

Agreed. Hollywood lost me a long time ago. They have nothing on these brilliant ASMRtists. I gladly pay for Diane's Patreon membership over Netflix or going to see slop in theaters.

[@sarahh_99]

Jacob and Blanche’s dialogue is top tier, I adore their dynamic

I absolutely adore the detective roleplays! The voice, the scenes, the intros, the storyline, the photography, the atmosphere, they’re all *chef’s kiss*!

[@DrJoeStalin]

The anesthesia to my wounds, the serenity on my ears, and euphoric to my perpetual mind, the lady returns, as she helps me transcend my senses to slumber of deep tranquility. Once again, I thank you madam, for your art !

[@redrobotdubz]

It baffles me that Diane doesn't have many more millions of subscribers. Honestly, the best: productions, writing, QUALITY and style. I know it's all subjective, but for me she is far superior to most asmrtists that I listen to and know of

[@gfdia35]

I've been watching ASMR for 12 years now and for the last 4 years (from what I can tell is as long as she's been doing this) I've rarely been recommended one of her videos 🤷 god knows why but only this week have I found her work and yes it's some of the best I've seen, definitely extreme effort put into it, making her a true artist and not obsessed with paying the bills ,,,, 2 other things I know for sure, KZbin pushes channels that upload twice a week far far more than any that are once a week or less and ASMR literally only works on less than 40% of humans so it's definitely not for everyone 🤷🤷🤷

[@alisoncarlisle84]

I'm dying to hear about Blanche and Jacob's shenanigans when they were younger.... It's clear they're known each other for a while, I'm so curious!

[@andreadunhill8219]

I think ASMRtists should be nominated for Oscars!! This is just as good as any movie.

[@annaonyme4440]

Fun fact : some actress by the time of black and white movies wasn't wearing red lipstick, but green ones while filming to get the "right" shade of grey on the screen. Don't ask me why, this video just remind me this, so I share it. Enjoy !

[@hoosieryank6731]

They also used Hershey syrup for blood in those movies, because it looked better than red ink for the silver screen!

[@MoonberryJam93]

At this point, this is a short film channel, not just an ASMR channel

[@roxanelvgsch]

Exactly

[@howstrangehowsmall]

this isn't an asmr video, this is an entire short film! so brilliant! all of your shots were so well done!

[@imthedormouse]

You are such an artist!! And I love when film noirs have female detectives instead of (or in addition to) femme fatales. I am so excited to watch this!!

[@Razoredge]

Je crois qu'on ne le dira jamais assez, Diane, mais c'est plus que de l'ASMR ce que tu produit, c'est littéralement cinématographique. Tu as un talent fou.

[@EvilNerd931]

I definitely didn't expect to be so invested in this storyline as I am now after a two minutes. I will never cease to be amazed of how much love you have for your work and what an awesome quality it makes. Thank you ❤

[@MoonlightCottageASMR]

Thanks :)

[@Sadovari]

This is so much better than Hollywood. Well done, set, camerawork, plot. You really nailed Noir on every level.

[@Motorhead_England]

I'm a massive fan of Moonlight Cottage, but I think "You Are The Evidence" is the video I've watched the most. I immediately fell in love with Blanche Higgins, the storyline, setting, and atmosphere was spot on, so I was overjoyed when "part 2" was out. I enjoy all of your content, and there's only so much more you can do with a specific theme, but I hope Blanche Higgins pops up again in the future with some more film noire. Thank you so much x

[@niamhoconnor9763]

This is giving Agent Carter with a touch of Ingrid Bergman, and I am HERE for it! Someone give you the funds, the staff, the crew, to make your own film asap, I would watch it, buy it on DVD, and recommend it to friends already, I absolutely love this and cannot believe I'm watching this for free!

[@chidom7702]

So immersive, so real, so vivid. Your talent is unmatched. Watching from Zimbabwe. ❤

[@kingrgames]

Wowie, a sequel so fast. This woman keeps as sane doesnt she? Brilliant work!

[@dawnbreakerASMR]

Not sure if this is cinema or KZbin... This is just next level quality.

[@r-mz9yo]

Oh this is a delight to sink into! I love this moody, silken dark jazz vibe and you weave a story that immediately brings me into this world of Ms. Higgins.

[@maddie7069]

I don’t know about you guys but I’d love a cozy basics video on how you did the hair and makeup for this video! I always find it fascinating how they differ when it comes to black and white filming! Love your work as always!!!

[@MoonlightCottageASMR]

Thank you! I released a video like this on Patreon a few months ago, but will also make a hair tutorial for the channel this Autumn :)

Diane, I know it's off topic, but you look great with this hairstyle 👍. I love your work, it's art, it's creative and much appreciated. I'm grateful to have found your channel a few years ago 🙏

[@bwezil]

You could seriously write a book, holy gods. I absolutely love how you wrote and read the opening monologue, and just how well all the dialogue was written in this. The story you’ve crafted over such delicate sounds has had me listening to this like a podcast just to experience it. I feel like with Noir, you especially can lean into ASMR as a medium to tell the story rather than a theme for it (if that makes any sense- everyone whispering and speaking lowly just feels so natural, here, to the point where I don’t think you could make a non-ASMR version and have the atmosphere come through right). 100% love this, and I love these characters and this world

[@kattycastrillo6425]

Spectacular! It was worth the wait. But imagine the great work it took to put together such a convincing setting, the black and white editing, everything as perfect as your performance. Thanks for your effort!

[@swoobatfan6606]
