Recreating the Pepper's Ghost trick

One of my Scooby-Doo themed science experiments, is to recreate Pepper's Ghost. The gist of it is to capture a reflection in some glass to make it appear as though it's a ghostly image. You see this effect all the time from Disneyland to vocaloid concerts. 

So I filmed this BTS of my own attempt. It took me over 30 mins in real time but this video is a 7 min highlight reel, the plan being to use ...

Jinkies! Let's Make A Ghost!!

For my October video, we're going full spooky with a Scooby Doo themed topic!

In Scooby Doo Where Are You, the original series of 25 episodes, every ghost and monster is unmasked to reveal it's just a guy after some treasure or something. However, it's also explained HOW they made their ghosts work. Most of the time it's just a costume and maybe some trapdoors or secret passages, but sometimes, it's seemingly supernatural abilities!

So using SCIENCE I'm going to attempt to recreat...

Anime Post Mortem Livestream

Here is the Patreon exclusive livestream for BTS/Making Of my latest video about Anime. 

 The whole stream is available to watch whenever you want!    

Anime Livestream Tomorrow!

As per the Patreon Exclusives, I'll be doing a Livestream Post-Mortem on the Anime video (it'll be available to watch on demand afterwards!). I'm planning on doing this around 4pm-ish tomorrow (Weds 30th).

I'll answer questions during the stream but if you want to ask anything now then leave a comment to this post!

MEANWHILE the next video will be so jinkies, it might make you zoinks yourself, as I attempt to recreate some of the ghosts from the original Scoody Doo series USING SC...

The Anime That Changed Me

New video now live! I can't thank Freddy Thomas enough for their editing work on this, I would've never have gotten this out this month without their help!

As for the Post-Mortem livestream, I'm gonna pencil in next week (probably Wednesday) but it depends what's happening with the jury service I'm currently on (I'm technically "on call" right now, meaning I could be summoned on any day) - therefore I might h...

ANIME-ting

In case you missed it, I did a cheeky little livestream while I worked on some animation and answered questions. This is for the end scene of the Anime video. It involves drawing feet, deciding what colour pants I'm wearing and a surprise visit from a waifu pillow - enjoy!

Anime & Me (WIP)

Here is the WIP rough draft of the next Eddache video, as edited by The CC Network. The animation is also done so bar some edit changes, the end card and music bed, this is more complete than past WIP videos!

Putting ME into ANIME

I commissioned Makoto Kino to produce the art work for the thumbnail of the next video! It's very sweet!

Speaking of the video, a WIP draft should be available for viewing early this coming week!

Anime & Me (Script Preview)

As of next week I will be an official crime fighter, bring the seedy criminal underworld to justice. In other words, I'm on jury service.

With that I have employed the help of The CC Network to edit the video for me so we can still get a video out this month (the Muffin Time video is technically August's video). So the script is written, everything is recorded, I need to do the animated segments but with the ...

Muffin Time Interview Extras

Here's some extra snippets from the interviews that wasn't included in the video. The main reason for these (aside from outtakes) was either for pacing reasons or it had deviated from the overall focus of the video, but these are fun and interesting insights nonetheless! 

Muffin Time Post Mortem Livestream

Here is the Patreon exclusive livestream for BTS/Making Of my latest video about Muffin Time.

It's Actually Muffin Time

The video is live! Thank you for your patience with this one, as you can see it was a BIG BOI.

I will do the Patreon exclusive post-mortem livestream on Wednesday 9th September, probably around 3pm-ish?

Also as there were parts that had to be cut, I cannot share the full unedited interviews but what I will do it cut out some parts that I hadn't put into the video for the sake of timing/pacing/staying-on-topic so I'll share those later!

Don't forget to join us on the Discord ...

Muffin Time WIP

Morning gang! Here is a full WIP video to check out now its had sign off! It's missing the animation (which I actually finished while this was rendering & uploading) plus a few tweaks I want to make but I'm aiming for final upload TODAY!

Muffin Time - Writing The Rules

Here's another sneaky peaky and the Muffin Time video coming (hopefully!) this weeky!

Baking Of Muffin Time - First 3 Mins

Hey gang! So as previously mentioned there is a kinda approval chain involved in the upcoming video, so there's parts that need signing off before I can show them.

HOWEVER, I am able to show the first three minutes of the video, which include the story of my original idea and what happened next! It has the missing animation parts of course. I'll try and fill the void a little with other clips I'm allowed to until final release (which I'm aiming to be THIS week!).

Muffin Update

So this video was always gonna be a beast and at a current runtime of about 30 minutes, yeah it's a beast!!

Apologies I've not been able to show much in the way of WIP as I'm still compiling the edit together. Plus I've promised both the boys of TurboPunch and Big Potato that I would run past them any edits for approval first.

I'm fighting for this to be released August 31st but because of the approval system, it might push this to within the first week of September. This is disap...

The Muffin Timeline

So for the next video about the Making/Baking of Muffin Time, my first job was to make a full complete timeline of events from the idea's conception all the way to people receiving their games. This was a bigger task than I realised and I'm glad I did this because there was a lot I forgot happened!

I'm sharing this timeline with you but I've had to edit some parts out as it's possible this information might be sensitive and I need to check with the team at Big Potato if I'm allowed to d...

It Is Time... For Muffins

So of course, those who know me through TomSka and DarkSquidge will surely know about the card game I helped co-create, Muffin Time!

With it's impending proper worldwide release, I am making my next Eddache video a full behind-the-scenes look at the Making Of (or should I say BAKING OF) Muffin Time.

My first step is to assemble the full timeline of events and everything interesting that eventually led to the development of the game. Anyone who has followed closely will know that I...

Goofy's Wife Post Mortem Livestream

Here is the Patreon exclusive livestream for BTS/Making Of my latest video about Goofy's Wife.

Goof Troop Review

For the latest video I watched every single episode of Goof Troop. But what did I actually think of the show? Here's my latest Patreon exclusive review!

Eddache on TikTok (no really)

I'm experimenting trying to reach a non-YouTube audience by sharing out-of-context Eddache clips on there.

What Happened To Mrs Goofy?

New video now live!!

The post-mortem livestream will have to wait until next week at some point due to my time being booked up. Hope that's ok and enjoy the video!!

Animation Livestream (21 Jul 20)

Last night a impromptu livestream while I work on some animation with people from the Discord server and Twitter.
Its here if you want to rewatch it.
No chatting, just a chill out session!

Goofy's Wife (WIP)

Here is an unfinished WIP edit of the Goofy video. You will see there are gaps abound (aside from my animation segments)!
As this is a collab, parts of the video are being edited separately by KP, the collaborator on this video. So those are being sent to me soon. Also the edit is incomplete towards the end of the video as aside from some key clips, I haven't reached that part of the video yet.
So it's messy right now, but I hope it makes for a sufficient preview of what's to come! 2020-07-18 12:42:45 +0000 UTC View Post

Harley Quinn (Season 1) Review

Hey gang! So when I last posted a review, the consensus over and the Discord is that while you welcome extra videos, you are widely content with the standard monthly uploads and that I shouldn't stress myself out to provide more than I can. I honestly appreciate that, so thank you.

What I've decided to do is basically keep making ...

Missing Link Review

This is an experiment to try and provide more content to you Patrons outside of more main channel videos!
It's an unscripted no-spoiler review of Missing Link.
Let me know what you think of this! Would you want more like it or other things that aren't reviews? I'm open to feedback!

Where Is Mrs Goofy? - The Script!

Hey troop! So the script for this episode took longer to write than most previous videos. This is because I usually make amendments and changes on the fly. But since this is a collaboration with ILoveKimPossibleALot, the script needed to be a joint effort.

But it's now ready for recording so here it is attached for your viewing and feedback pleasure!

I'm feeling good about this video, it's bo...

A Goofy Eddache Video

Currently deep into the research phase of my next video which is about Goofy, specifically, what happened to his wife? In the "How To" series, Goofy is shown to have a wife and son but then in the reboot that is Goof Troop, the wife disappears.

While this is never directly addressed at any point within the shows and it's generally waved off as being "inconclusive", we're doing a deep dive to find any clues that might actually solve this mystery! As part of this, I've just finished watch...

Eddache Discord Now OPEN!

I'm testing out launching a Discord server! Right now it's just for you Patrons, but if it works out I'll broaden it more.

I'm also keeping it to one channel for now too but that too will gradually grow. For example, should I expand this to be public, there will be a Patreon only channel or something like it!

See you there!
