Howdy howdy howdy!
If you watched the stream two days ago, you saw me writing these words as I uploaded all of the stems and songs!
Jonah really knocked it out of the park with this one. I sent him a very simple melody tracking and asked if he could make it sound like it was a Cowboy Chorus, and then he made this beautiful thing (and even doubled all of my vocals to fill it out)! He's the best.
Pumpkin Cowboy is finally out there in the world, and I'm super proud of his debut.
I'll be honest and say that I don't expect this to be one of my more popular videos, but similar to Teaching Jake, it's one of my favorites, and I'm overwhelmingly glad with how it turned out. They say the only ...

Hello everyone, and welcome to the first process stream of 2022!
These streams were originally just for the $10 tier, but since I'm currently reorganizing my Patreon (and after checking with the Jorts Enthusiasts, who almost unanimously voted to make this a...
2022-01-26 00:01:27 +0000 UTC View PostHello! I wanted to have an easily accessible list of all of my 2021 posts for anyone who might have joined mid-year and missed them! I'll do one of these posts for every patron level. You can find the post for the $3 tier here, and the post for the $10 tier here.
Hello! I wanted to have an easily accessible list of all of my 2021 posts for anyone who might have joined mid-year and missed them! I'll do one of these posts for every patron level. You can find the post for the $5 tier here, and the post for the $10 tier here.
I'll attempt to keep this succinct, but knowing me, it won't be. So TL;DR: Thank you all so very much for your support.
On December 28th, 2020, I became an independent creator. I had been thinking about giving it a try for a while, but with the pandemic and finances and generalized anxiety about "making good stuff," I didn't think it would go super well. Regardless, I planned things out and figured ...

Not a lot of homemade music in this video, but at least I got to make a song for the sexy/sad Moreau.
As always, feel free to use anything labeled with SFX in your projects!
i have eaten far too many cookies in the past few weeks due to this video.
Thanks for watching my first video-game-related video in nearly a year! It feels strange to do a GOTY video again, but boy do I love to talk about fun video games.
I'll be posting the 2021 archives in a few days, b...

Hey y'all, let's start with the fun thing:

As of 30 minutes ago, I am officially done moving into my new place. The vast swath of cardboard boxes was just picked up to be recycled, and 95% of the furniture is built and placed where it should go. I can no longer procrastinate by saying "Well I'll just build this bookshelf instead of filming anything."
Don't get me wrong, I do need to build that bookshelf. But I'll just do it on the weekend. I need to make stuff. Here's the stuff I'm making:
sorry it took so long, but there were a LOT of stems to bounce!
please enjoy all 55 of these stems. but let's be honest, you're all here for those sweet screams in the SFX tracks.

hello here are all the songs from AAAH!BBA.
I will post all of the stems as a separate post! I figured it would make the most sense to put all of the main songs here, and then if you want to hear just the stems, you can find them in a secondary post. That should be up by tomorrow!
2021-10-25 16:05:00 +0000 UTC View Postthe big project is complete.
Lay All Your Love On Me is live now, and the rest of the videos will be out at midnight tonight. Hopefully, the songs will be on Spotify/every other music service soon, too! I'm just waiting on the cover licens...

Hello folks, I am exhausted.
I’m currently writing this post while sitting on a box, waiting for our movers to get here to pick up all of our earthly belongings. Turns out that having one month to find an apartment on the other side of the country and then pack up all of your stuff so you can go there is really quite a lot.
It’s sad to say goodbye to this place! We were only here for a year and a few months, but there were lots of memories. Here’s where I ate a slightly squ...

Hello it is a new song and all of the stems!
This is one of my fave songs that I've made this year. It's just a chill little song. I like to make chill little songs.
Heads up: Next month you will get lots of songs. Lots and lots and lots of songs. This level will have many posts. So look forward to that.
2021-09-09 16:10:00 +0000 UTC View PostHello! This is the final shorty (for now)! And I don't have much in the way of bloopers, so instead, I made a 35-minute walkthrough of each of the 102 layers I used in After Effects in order to make this 51 second video. That's an average of two layers per second. The video equivalent of a high-speed croissant.
HELLO IT IS TIME FOR THE SECOND THIRDLY REPORT.
We will be live here in an hour (6pm EST). Bring some snacks and bring some questions, because we're gonna be doing a Q&A at the end of the very short powerpoint presentation, and I will be grilling a lot of meats while answering.

Hello hello here is my dance anthem for summer 2k21.
I really was going hard for the Kernkraft 400 football stadium chant vibe on this one, and I think it ended up there in the end.
My personal favorite stem is "PercAdd" because it sounds like it shouldn't belong in the song at all, but it somehow fits.
2021-08-18 16:50:01 +0000 UTC View PostHAHA SURPRISE THERE IS ANOTHER VIDEO THIS MONTH
Now that you've learned 38 dance moves to try at the club, please enjoy 54 more of them. That's 92 dance moves.
If it wasn't obvious, I put the song on repeat and just danced for ~two hours straight in order to film this video. This song has been stuck i...

We're editing the fourth and final shorty tomorrow (because the third one is going to go up sometime this week)!
See you all there!
2021-08-16 17:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostFolks, we've made it another four months into the year, and that means it's time to have another Thirdly Report.
(I was originally aiming to do this at the very end of August, but I'll be out of town that weekend, so it's more of a 47/73rds report, but that's not as catchy.)
If you missed our first thirdly report, h...

This song was meant to be the most accurate portrayal of the way I feel whenever I have to do a minor task around the house that could be somewhat consequential, so I tried to make a vocal equivalent of the Shepard tone.
But regardless of the general anxiety of it, this is still one of my favorite bass lines. It's just weird enough to be catchy.
2021-08-05 16:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostSo this video should have come out last week, but it didn't.
The reason the video didn't come out last week is because I ended up spending about 27 cumulative hours delayed in an airport, and thus completely lost a full day of work. I forgot that traveling can be both great and also really suc...

I'll split this progress report into 3 sections: UPCOMING VIDS, UPCOMING NOT VIDS, and OTHER STUFF.
So the good news is that I finally have a line-up cut of Mr. Smock (Pic 1) and the most colorful timeline I've ever made. It's because I had all of the shots color coordinated based on how I would had to stand in front of the green screen (Pic 2 is the script, also color coordinated, and Pic 3 is my "storyboard" of shot templates. You can tell it's the en...

Folks, I am bad at blender.
But also, I need to be somewhat okay at blender in order to create some reasonably well designed backgrounds for Mr. Smock.
So come through tomorrow, THURSDAY, JULY 15, AT 1PM EST. We'll see if we can make something worthwhile. Or at least learn something.
(p.s. if you're good at blender feel free to come and help/laugh at me)

turns out this video has TWO songs, not just one! it's the normal rollerblade one and then the weird ending drone!
a fun part of the ending drone is that a lot of the weird noises come from me just saying the sentence "I am testing how weird this can sound if I slow it down and I reverse it" in a weird voice, and then slowing it down and reversing it, and then chopping it in half and layering it on itself. immediate scary drone noises! how fun!
2021-07-08 16:05:59 +0000 UTC View Postwelcome to the limitless world of rollerblading.
This was originally supposed to be a shorty, but it ended up being an average length video. Sometimes I really want to talk about rollerblading and I end up talking way too long. The other shorties are actual shorties.

You can choose the one we build in the poll at the bottom. Normally this poll would be for what we do in next month's goofy stream, but GUESS WHAT: IT'S GONNA BE AUGUST. WHICH MEANS IT'LL BE TIME FOR ANOTHER THIRDLY REPORT. Holy moly, how are we almost 2/3rds of the way ...
