Scoring a segment such that the music punctuates the physical motions occurring. This is a technical term coined in the animation industry in the 1930s, though the practice of synchronizing actions to the rhythm of the music goes to the days of silent film. In a slapstick cartoon, this can be used as a complete substitute for the normal sound effects. In live action this is more commonly used alongside the normal sound effects, making it seem like a choreographed dance. In either case the effect is usually comedic, whether this was intentional or not, which is why the term is often used as a pejorative in film scoring circles. While it was prevalent in the early days of sound cartoons due to how efficient it was for the animators to time the animation to, it soon became derided as cliché and corny, and its usage decreased considerably in the following years. That said, it's certainly not a Discredited Trope — there are still some modern cartoonists who still use this, such as Genndy Tartakovsky (who loves timing his cartoons to tempos) and Danny Antonucci. Feature animated films still make some use of it, but it's limited to musical sequences, like the ones seen in Rio. For video games where the player can cause Mickey Mousing, see Musical Gameplay. See also Mime and Music-Only Cartoon, Musical Chores, Standard Snippet, Theme Music Power-Up, Record Needle Scratch. Compare Variable Mix. May be used in conjunction with Left the Background Music On. This is not the same as a Leitmotif, which is a particular theme tied to a character, object, or idea. It is also not the same as the use of music to express emotions. It only counts as Mickey Mousing if the music is timed to — and usually similar in contour to — the actions on screen. |

John Wick: Chapter 2 opens on the sound of a high performance car engine growling over a Buster Keaton silent comedy projected onto a building. When the comedian goes crashing through a window there's a simultaneous loud impact sound despite it being a silent movie. The camera then pans down to reveal a motorcyclist has crashed while being chased by John Wick driving his Chevelle SS Aurelio. | |

The '60s Batman TV series, along with many other cheesy movies of the decade, tended to feature obnoxious, brass-heavy music during fight scenes, which would provide a stinger chord for every punch that landed. For Batman, it provided a nice complement to all the POWs!, BIFFs!, BAMs! and ZOTs! whenever the Caped Crusader would lay a righteous smackdown on the bad guys. | |

There were two episodes of Tom and Jerry and Looney Tunes which had Tom and Bugs Bunny, respectively, playing Liszt's Second Hungarian Rhapsody. The two are suspiciously similar, right down to Bugs having to contend with an annoying mouse living in his piano. Oh, and there's a Looney Tunes episode based on the Barber of Seville overture. Let's just say that WB and MGM's animation departments did a lot of it in general. The Woody Woodpecker cartoon "Convict Concerto" also made use of the Second Hungarian Rhapsody. | |

Carl Stalling's work for Warner Bros. (which included many of the classic Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies shorts) deserves some kind of special award. Particularly notable in that the music makes no attempt at coherence on a purely musical level: it's just a disjointed series of glissandos, pizzicatos, runs, and stingers designed to match the action. Not to mention: before that he composed the music for most of the early Mickey Mouse shorts (although not the very first), making Carl Stalling some sort of meta trope codifier. Inverted in a number of musical cartoons including "Rabbit of Seville" and "What's Opera, Doc?", where the music was predetermined and the characters' actions were matched to it. |

Ikaruga mickey-mouses its music to the scripted events of the levels. As a result, if you complete certain enemy waves or midboses early, extra enemies will spawn while there is extra time. The most impressive of which is that if you play your tennis properly, the final boss dies exactly at the end of the musical phrase. Among other things, the third boss starts firing its rotating lasers right as the boss music hits its big dramatic chorus. |

Donkey Kong Country Returns sometimes does this with the Rocket Barrel levels. For example, in Peaceful Pier, the music becomes more frantic as the pirates fire more and more cannonballs at you. The Truck Driver's Gear Change happens when the pirates decide to bust out their biggest cannon. However, this trope only applies if you don't respawn at a checkpoint, otherwise the music won't match the action. | |

In the New Super Mario Bros. series: The Goombas and Koopa Troopas, among other enemies, as well as the powerups, interact with the music. Whenever there is a "bah-bah", all of the enemies will stop and do a half-step, hop, or spin in place, depending on the enemy. Also, in New Super Mario Bros. Wii and New Super Mario Bros.

This happens in the chase scene of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. According to legend, John Williams tried to conduct the orchestra to a cut of the film but it didn't mesh properly.

For the Dream SMP, the opening montage of Quackity's second "Las Nevadas" stream was set to Strauss's "Voices of Spring Waltz", as he travels to Pandora's Vault every day over the course of a month, regardless of the weather, to torture Dream. This sequence is stated in a behind-the-scenes stream to be inspired by A Clockwork Orange (see above in the Live-Action Films section), where all the most violent scenes were similarly set to classical music. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: The entire scene with Robotnik conducting experiments on Sonic's dropped quill (and discovering its potentially unlimited power) is interspersed with him busting out various energetic dance moves along to The Poppy Family's "Where Evil Grows". Even the actual experimentation is timed perfectly to the music. | |

Rocky III: "Eye of the Tiger" was written for precisely this reason — the famous training scene had been filmed with "Another One Bites the Dust" in mind, but when they couldn't get Queen to let them use the song, they asked Survivor to write a song with a riff to match Rocky's punches. | |

Two minor examples from Persona 5: One of Morgana's victory animations has him bumping his head right against the screen right as the victory fanfare kicks in. Several major cutscenes in the Velvet Room begin with the protagonist falling asleep, drifting to said room, and waking up on the prison bed inside it (in this game, the Velvet Room resembles a prison). When his eyes open, they open perfectly in sync with the final note of the Velvet Room theme's first measure. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Moblins in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker do this, the music usually beating in time with their footsteps. The game also plays musical Stings whenever Link lands a blow on an enemy, with a slightly more elaborate one if it's a fatal blow. In Hyrule Warriors, attacking enemies' weak points causes a musical sting, with a single larger music note hit when you perform the massive attack at the end. |

This is sort of the point of Disney's Fantasia and Fantasia 2000, though it was actually done in reverse, with animation produced based on existing music. Of particular note is the "Dance of the Hours" segment, where timpani sound every time a character falls down. They were not part of the original piece, they were added just to underscore the pratfalls. |

Halo does this several times. In the Halo: Combat Evolved mission "343 Guilty Spark", a Scare Chord in the soundtrack is timed to play when a corpse falls through the door during the Pvt. Jenkins cutscene. A certain percussion hit plays when Athens Station explodes in Halo 2, with another scare chord used when the Chief rides the bomb out of the Cairo. In Halo 3, the Ethereal Choir scale during the Citadel cutscene on "The Covenant" corresponds to the holograms of the seven Halo rings that the camera passes through. During the final Escape Sequence in said game, the music segues to the final phrase exactly when you make the jump to the ship. | |

Banjo-Kazooie does it at the beginning of the game with the Nintendo 64 logo walking across the screen. For the X-Box Live Arcade version, however, it was removed for obvious reasons, so we just get Mickey Mousing without visual accompaniment. No, really. | |

In the original Chibi-Robo!, almost every one of the titular robot's actions was accompanied by musical notes. Most notably, his footsteps would each play a random note, with the instrument depending on what surface he was walking on (pizzicato strings for wooden surfaces, glockenspiel for tile surfaces, accordion for carpet, etc.). The sequels after Park Patrol don't use this, however. | |

The classic opening sequence for Batman: The Animated Series was composed entirely of the serious version of this. Done so well that you don't realize that the jet engine of the Batmobile turning on is actually a cymbal roll. You also didn't notice that it didn't actually name the show. It was just that awesome. So awesome that Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill forgot they were supposed to be recording lines during playback and spent a few seconds wondering why the vocal track wasn't working. | |

The absurdly famous "Knife" cue from Psycho is kind of a funny aversion, compounded with Beam Me Up, Scotty!. If you watch the scene carefully, the music is NOT Mickey Mousing.

In the Touhou Project series, various events and bosses are partially scripted to coincide with the music: One of Kogasa Tatara's appearances coincides with the sound of Youkai giggling in Undefined Fantastic Object. Another example from Touhou Seirensen ~ Undefined Fantastic Object is stage 5, where some enemies appear with their sound effects, contributing to the melody. Hina's first appearance in Touhou Fuujinroku ~ Mountain of Faith is timed to coincide with 0:20 of her stage theme, when the tone of the music changes, Some other boss spellcards are timed to match the tempo of their leitmotifs very well. Special mention to Yuyuko's finale, which goes into a guitar solo as the whole pattern explodes around you. Other bosses aren't assured to match up as well depending on how quickly the player defeats them, but a straightforward kill keeping decent pace will often see things line up suspiciously well. This happens as early in the series as Yuki filling the screen with red right as the percussion drops off, or as recent as Miko going up in a technicolor blaze as the music peaks, or Raiko's soundtrack dropping away into a thunderous drum solo during her two most difficult attacks and the final phase of her finale. Perfect Cherry Blossom stage 4 has shifts to coincide with Lily White's appearance (which is also when the background starts to turn white) and the pause at the end of the stage before the boss battle. This is itself a take on the third stage of Touhou Fuumaroku ~ the Story of Eastern Wonderland back on the PC-98. Near the end of the level, you go over a cliff, the enemies all clear out at once, and the music dramatically drops off back into its quiet intro...and goes back into its buildup when you see the boss. In fact, many stages are scripted to exactly correspond to the music, to the extent where the game will throws out bonus enemies for you to destroy if you kill the midboss quickly, and sometimes skip midboss patterns if you kill them too slowly, all in attempts to perfectly synchronize the stages with their themes (assuming your game isn't running slowly for some reason, that is). |

Still with Kubrick, in A Clockwork Orange the overture to "La Gazza Ladra" is used in two places, and apart from heralding bouts of the old ultraviolence, in at least one of them (the fight of Alex and his droogs against a rival gang in an abandoned theatre) the music goes together with the tremendously violent action in the screen. | |

2001: A Space Odyssey used this for several extended scenes, including spacecraft in flight. The music wasn't actually written for the film, so they simply chose the most accurate piece to use for the individual sequence. The score as we know it was originally just used by Kubrick as makeshift editing music, so he'd have something to work with. It turned out he liked it so much he threw the entire original score, which had already been written and recorded, out of the window. (And this may have been his plan all along: Also Sprach Zarathustra, in particular, is suspiciously thematically appropriate.) When auto-docking with a space station in the game Elite, it plays "On the Beautiful Blue Danube", in reference to 2001. (Not all of editions of Elite do this, though.) |

The Princess Bride: Seen (heard?) during the famous "you killed my father" scene. And also during the chatty swordfight duel. The music stops every time a stroke is parried. The music and the dueling both stop to allow the characters to perform acrobatic feats and talk to one another. Also used the next time Cary Elwes got to go Flynning. During the climactic sword-fight in Robin Hood: Men in Tights, much of the action is synched with the music, including "parry, parry, thrust, thrust, *CLANG* Good!" Not so much the shadow-puppet bit though... |

Done occasionally in Rayman Origins. Most noticeable in the treasure chase stages in which the levels seem to be partially based around the music. Each world in Rayman Legends features a "Musical Level," in which jumps, attacks, item pickups, and other in-game events are synchronized with the background music. |

The Blues Brothers: Used during the "SCMODS" sequence. During the chase, when their car crashes into a music store and then rolls out again, the sound of a drum falling over is synchronized with the music. Used when the eponymous duo are trying to sneak into the performance, with the band playing "Minnie the Moocher" as the music (although being heavily musically inclined, the two are doing it on purpose). |

Baby Driver: The credits have graffiti glide by the screen matching the lyrics. Then everything in the proper movie is timed to the music, from counting money, to firing bullets, to windshield wipers and police sirens. Even gestures made during a conversation will line up with the beat. It gets to the point where the key to tell things are about to go bad is that something isn't on beat with the song (i.e. during Baby's botched robbery with Eddie, JD and Bats). All of the action, sound effects and music are carefully synchronized. |

Pirates of the Caribbean: In The Curse of the Black Pearl, there are at least two points during Captain Jack and Will's swordfight in the blacksmith's shop where the swords connect along with the music.

Blake's 7: This was planned for a scene where our heroes are captured and marched off by Stompy Mooks. In order to sync the actors to the martial music, the director had them march to the beat of a metronome. Unfortunately a practical joker on the set thought it would be funny to increase the rhythm so everyone had to march faster, making this impossible. | |

The main Jurassic Park theme does this a few times. When it is first played, there is a prominent cymbal crash that lines up perfectly with a rather spectacular crashing of waves against a large rock pillar, just off the coast of the main island. When it is reprised during the climactic battle between the T-Rex and the Velociraptors, the repeat of the main riff begins at the exact moment the one surviving Raptor decides to take on the Rex all by herself, and the riff comes to its crescendo just as the Rex howls in agony from the Raptor's bite. Not to mention that the song's dramatic beginning is timed perfectly to coincide with the sudden appearance of the Rex. | |

In ALLTYNEX Second, The Area 5 theme speeds up and segues into an arrangement of "Raiwat Virgo" right as you encounter the midboss, the shell of ZODIAC Ophiuchus. | |

A rare (and rather brilliant) in-universe example occurs in the climax of the Danish caper Olsen Banden Ser Rødt where the gang breaks into a theatre unnoticed by smashing, drilling and demolishing walls in perfect sync with the music the orcastra in the theatre is playing. | |

Hudson Hawk: Two scenes feature two thieves robbing places while...singing and dancing. For them, it's a way to synchronise their actions and time the heist. | |

Firefly: In "Safe", the semi-Celtic-style folk music River dances to in one scene happens to synch up beautifully to the fight scene occurring over with Mal and the crew. Firefly actually does this routinely due to its aversion of Space Is Noisy requiring something else to punctuate the otherwise silent action onscreen. | |

Family Guy: Subverted/parodied several times. In "The Story on Page One", Peter provides his own Mickey Mousing while sneaking around. In one of the segments in "Family Guy Viewer Mail #1", Peter asks a genie for his own personal soundtrack, and the music does this (being light and breezy when he's skipping, turning into a Sexophone when he and Lois are about to get intimate). Stewie also gets a job following fat guys around with a tuba, playing in time with their steps. |

Played beautifully straight in the penultimate mission of Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown; BGM track Daredevil hits a new level of Orchestral Bombing and One-Woman Wail at 3:14 — the same moment the boss's Hard Light Deflector Shields drop, rendering it vulnerable. (According to YouTube comments, that was in fact the order of operations: composer Keiki Kobayashi turned in the track, and the mission was hastily reprogrammed to synchronize with it.) | |

Friday Night Funkin': Everything that moves bounces to the beat, from the characters to the life bar; the bobbing pace is even adjusted for songs with a quicker tempo. In particular, "Bopeebo" has musical stings and sound effects after each of The Boyfriend's verses, which are all timed to him doing a V-Sign. Later on, during the song "Stress", Pico guns down Tankman's various grunts to the beat of the music. | |
