I saw a post from the board artist that said Angel is supposed to be mean to the patrons, too, so that distance is also a distance from the act

Seeing Husk react to Angel was so important to me lol. I love these boys. I pulled a lot from Eddie Valiant in terms of how Husk reacts. Just kind of stunned and flabberghasted lol. Also Angel's chest coming direct into camera from that shot of Husk staring was very intentional framing hahah

The main direction I was given for this, of course, was to take inspiration from Jessica Rabbit's intro song sequence from Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Also I was told Angel needs to be mean to the patrons hahah. BUT, he's nice to the piano player, because you always gotta be nice to the piano player.
