During this pandemic, I have learned to play guitar, mastered the art of bonsai, and trained out every single day watched a lot of TikTok.

The worst part? I was so lazy that I didn’t even bother to learn the TikTok dances; I just watched them as I grew increasingly out of breath from blinking.

And yet there’s one man on TikTok who makes all of the Charli D’Amelios of the world look like Charli D’Ameli-nos. (I told you; I spent the pandemic watching TikTok. I should have used my time more wisely and practised my pun making.)

Star of School of Rock, Kung Fu Panda and King Kong, Jack Black has become a sensation on TikTok. Y’know, not quite content with already smashing the film industry, the music industry, the world of comedy, and YouTube…

For his 8.3 million followers, Jack Black has used incredible visual effects to transform himself into a Jedi Knight, Captain America, Iron Man and more, and it’s all thanks to… Taylor Stephens.

I tried to build some dramatic tension there, only to realise that I probably should explain who Taylor Stephens actually is, shouldn’t I?

Taylor is a videographer and editor for both Jack Black’s YouTube channel, Jablinski Games, and for his TikTok, and often uploads short videos of how he created Jack’s visual masterpieces.

I know I’ve gone quite over-the-top with phrases like ‘sensation’ and ‘masterpieces’, but just look at this TikTok…
