G-Major

G-Major (often stylized without the dash) is an effect in the logo editing community. The effect was used as a possible meme in late 2007 before the founding of the community. Since its creation by Gallers in 2007, the effect has been used widely by users in the logo editing and YouTube Poop communities.
The effect only appears to be inverted by luminance or contrast. Sometimes the effect would contain only color change. According to some, when a sequence of six different pitches are added to the audio, it would sound demonic. The method of the audio varies, usually from using two tracks to over seven/eight tracks.
The effect was originally created on Vegas Pro. Audacity can also be used for the audio. Other video editing softwares, which have an invert filter, can also be used.

== Origins and usage ==
On November 24, 2007, a YouTube user named Gallers uploaded a video titled "Hotel Mario In G Major"https://youtu.be/icHpvENaebE - Hotel Mario In G Major - YouTube. The video contains the Hotel Mario introduction cutscene but with the audio being modified to sound like a G-Major scale. Even though the "in G-Major" videos fad had been started by Gallers, another video, which was created 3 months before, used a similar style. PanicBomber, another user on YouTube, uploaded a related video titled "scaryroll"https://youtu.be/Jwj0gLriTnk - scaryroll - YouTube around in August 11, 2007, but uses a similar style of G-Major; inverting is added to the video and the audio uses more/different minor notes/pitches. Their channel contains videos that repeatedly use the original G-Major method, but has not uploaded a video in 15 years. They are usually referred as the original starter of G-Major videos, but Gallers had brought the fad to its activeness. After Gallers's video was released, the effect has influenced others to create the same type of videos.https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/in-g-major - In G Major | Know Your Meme
