BIFFUS LIKES CHRISTMAS VIDS
Added 2019-12-18 16:04:30 +0000 UTCPhew. Blimey. This was a lot of work. I've been tinkering with this episode for weeks.
Originally we'd had a completely different idea for the Christmas special, but the nature of it meant that due to the injuries Sanya and I have been recovering from meant that we were forced to abandon it. A shame, but I remained determined to do something a bit different, built around the framework of a mostly regular Digi Mini.
In actual fact, while this may be different... it's also kind of familiar. No spoilers, but my intention was to make it a kind of celebration of the channel, and a thank you for everyone who has stuck with me over the years. Particularly the YouTube years. While maybe foreshadowing the future. A bit. Kind of. In a nostalgic way.
There are plenty of new subscribers who aren't even aware of Mr Biffo's Found Footage, so if this encourages them to check it out... that'd be nice.
A lot of people gave up their time to make this episode possible, particularly Chris Jerden-Cooke whose astonishing work on Beanus Loves Christmas Beans speaks for itself, and all the special guests. Don't switch off before the end, if you think you've already seen the Beanus music video....
Anyhow - here you go. It'll be going live tonight, but you get it a few hours early. I'll check in before Christmas, and the end of the year, but I'm planning to take a break at least between Christmas and New Year, on both the website and the channel.
Hope you like this. It's a complete mess. In the best way.

2019-12-19 20:28:49 +0000 UTCLoved it! I have to say, the Digi Show/Found Footage cutaways work really well. I know you've had the odd clip here and there in past minis, but I think they would be great to see a bit more use of them in future minis! Obviously I know it's not always that simple, with time constraints, but just a thought.
