These tricks always get some great laughs from my colleagues. Use caution when shooting the conductor though. They may not have as good a sense of humor as you do. LOL
The over tuning the E string trick won’t work if you don’t have a hard edge to put the string up against and place your violin against the edge slowly so as not to damage the string, violin or chair.
To get a good machine-gun sound keep the bow stick real close to the bridge for a faster speed and more control.
