This TikTok star does pitch perfect impersonations of the Beatles
Jones tries to showcase one Beatles song for each of their 10 years and one of their solo songs. “They didn’t have that long of a time span,” she says. “I try to do the most iconic things, because I also want it to be a very loose history lesson for people. I try to keep it to the hits just for people who wouldn’t know otherwise.”
She shoots all of the videos by herself on a DSLR out of an extra room she made into a studio in her Williamsburg apartment. In order to achieve the vintage quality — from the sepia-toned Seventies colors to the hazy pastel of the Eighties — she edits them on Final Cut. Occasionally, she’ll add animation as well, like the psychedelic flowers that surround Harrison and the sitar.
Most of the videos take a full day to produce. Before shooting, she’ll study YouTube videos, but she normally already has an idea in her head of every concept. “I subconsciously pick up on facial cues pretty well,” she says. “So I feel like it just comes naturally to me, but I definitely do research just to re-jog my brain.”
Growing up with antiques around the house, Jones has collected many props over the years — from rotary telephones to television sets. “At this point now, everybody just gives me stuff,” she says. “I’ve just had people come to me and say, ‘Do you want this box of wigs I have?'” She often cuts the wigs to fit, and will draw on the beards. Some of the props, like George Harrison’s Rickenbacker, she constructed out of cardboard.
