1,000,000 Views Milestone! December Update

Hi guys!

First I wanted to share we recently hit 1,000,000 views across our videos. LETS GO! Thank you so very much for checking out the content, this is only the beginning!


I’ve been setting the pieces in motion for next year, 2023 is going to be huge for the channel. Here I’ll be sharing a roadmap and some of our goals!


1. Multi-language tracks coming soon to YT!

In the latest Creator Inside update, YouTube announced they are close to rolling out multi-language tracks for all videos. Just like you can change the audio track on Netflix, you will be able to do that on YouTube videos as well. 


As a Spanish-speaking artist this is huge for me. One of my goals with my channel was to help fellow Hispanics in their art journey, but I didn’t want the burden of running a second channel. This feature is a life savior! 


Don't worry, my videos will always be created and delivered in English, but this gives me the possibility of Dubbing my videos so Spanish speakers can switch to a second audio track.
It also shows the video title and description in Spanish, for people who have set their YT account in that language, so they'll get to experience the videos like it was made in Spanish from the start. 


It is for this reason that I’ve already started dubbing my current videos (yep, doing it with my own voice). I'm also working with Fiverr voice actors for other voices when the video features an interview, its turning out to be fun. As the channel grows I’ll study the possibility of adding more languages but I want to beta test what 1 extra language does to my channel in terms of the algorithm.

There is the chance that current videos start blowing up in other regions which will help the channel grow a ton. Or maybe nothing happens. Either way I want to be ready for when it launches!


As I'm preparing for this, ALL Patreon Exclusive Videos have been Subtitled both in English and Spanish (checked by me). You can check this out already!
*Dubbed audio tracks will only be available for the main videos in the channel, and I'll keep adding subtitles in Spanish and English to Patron-only videos.


2. Animated Music Video

Our big project for next year is the release of our first Animated Music Video featuring Xeraphine.

For this I’ve been splitting my attention between:

• Working with a producer to finish the Song (it’s the one you hear on the intro of every video). Demo version is ready

• Working on the animatic/storyboard. Which is currently sitting at around 40% finished.

More on this on future updates!


3. Post-Production Video

Don’t worry, I'm aware of how highly requested this video is and it’s the very next I’ll release. 

The script is ready and I have recorded a lot of the footage. But the reason I've been delaying it is I wanted to take a scene from the music video from start to finish, hence why I needed to make progress on the things above before getting into this one. Patrons will have access to the file we create for this video, aside from any other After Effects scene that I show in the video.

My goal is to release the Post video before the end of the year. I truly appreciate your patience!


4. Working as an Animator 

A colleague is launching an indie project, and I truly want to animate on it. But, at the same time my main priority right now is the YouTube channel, so I'll try to get as few scenes assigned as I can. Still its an opportunity I don't want to miss! You'll be hearing more about it in the following months.


Of course, through this Patreon, I’ll make you part of this entire journey. And I’ll keep providing more Patreon exclusive videos as I have more time to record.

Your support is what is making all these things happen, thank you so much for being here and reading this!

Here’s to a fantastic 2023!!
