Taking end questions for next video.

Hey y'all, I'm currently finished the basic cut, gonna need to clean up and work on pacing some stuff out. I'm taking questions for the ending part, I can't guarantee I will answer yours (especially if I have not much / any to say), but please respond to this thread with them and I'll try!

March 31, 2021 Editing Log (Also for reactions, see note!)

Youtube keeps giving me my damn mug. Patreon keeps trying to verify me. The cut is almost done, but here's the ongoing progress.

For folks who requested reactions, I'll be doing them this weekend, I'm really sorry about the delays! 

March 27, 2021 Editing Log

Hey guys, finally got out of the Attack on Titan editing slum, now it's for the last two sections. I will be timing a few cuts differently in the final product, because it is really hard to try and time things when After Effects is consuming your entire computer.

March 26, 2021 Editing Log

Hi everyone, I hope everyone's doing well! Here's another progress log, showing folks what I've gotten and done so far. I was originally gonna have the card during the Isayama blog part stand up like a card, but the camera shot the image too high up, so too low of an angle would look awkward and too high of an angle would be difficult to see.

Therefore, I went with a completely different (and much dumber) fly-in. It looks like a flying saucer now lol.

March 26, 2021 Editing Log

Hey y'all, here's the editing progress I have for the next video. Not a lot so far, but at least I got the transition into the next part ready.

March 25, 2021 Editing Log

Hi y'all, really sorry I couldn't upload one yesterday, I started rendering and then went to bed, completely forgot.

Here's the current progress, finished "Ki," starting "Sho." I think this section is slightly faster than the previous one, even though it's longer, since I can lean on a lot of anime footage at this moment.

March 22, 2021 Editing Log

Time for another round of editing logs! Haven't colour corrected yet, but my hope is to get through each section over a span of 2 days, so it's 8 days overall for each of the 4 sections coming up.

Attack on Titan's Four Act Structure

Hey y'all, here's the current script. I'll be finagling with the details a bit, but it's another stray note as I work on the Steinberg video.

A Brief Lexical Look at ERASED's Panels - Assets

Hello, this week's asset upload is ERASED, "A Brief Lexical Look." I think this is the first big "manga" video, and there's a lot of stuff here that you can kinda play with. As always, it's yours to do with what you will.

Per Performativity - Boku Girl Assets

Hi everyone, as patrons, you get the assets I upload. Feel free to do with them as you will. I'll be uploading them here and there over a period of time, there's no strange intention behind them, I'm just a little bad with keeping track of where I put all of these. There might be completely unedited images in here, my apologies, I haven't checked. I also think the Boku Girl one has some nudity, so NSFW warning and my apologies for the inconvenience.

Here y'are, feel free to do whatever you'd like with it!

Production Podcast, Episode 1: Tonikawa

Here's the link to the video, if you wanna watch it as video. I think you can generate an XML through Patreon, but if you wanna listen to it on something like Spotify, lemme know and I can set it up on Libsyn or something.

Starting Production Podcast, Please Recommend First Episode

Hi y'all,

I'll be starting my production podcast, as promised. It's just a podcast where I'll talk about what went on into making a specific video (mine), thoughts about it, things I'd change / keep, etc.

Please respond to this post for what you'd like to see as a first video. I'll cover the video with the most recommendations.

Also please note that as the older the videos get, the less I can likely say about my own intentions at the time, but I can probably talk about what ...

Cut as of 2021-01-19

Slight modifications will be made for the final video, but this is the closest so far.

January 14, 2021 Progress - Tonikaku Kawaii

Current Progress, my aim is for Saturday. RAM is really bottlenecking me atm, there's a surprising amount of tracking I had to do manually because AE is good, but not perfect, know what I'm saying?

(2021-01-01) Tonikaku Kawaii's Live Footage Cut

Tonikaku Kawaii's Inverted Love - Stray Note Script

Here is the script at the moment, I haven't made any revisions (yet), but will tomorrow. This is just to give folks a general idea of what's going on.

For those who aren't aware, this is a new video format called a "Stray Note." It's just a video where I don't really have a clear guiding argument or much about it, but I find the topic interesting enough to make a video on it. It's meant to be 1k words max, usually around 3-5 minutes. This doesn't mess with the bigger videos. It also let...

January 2nd Live Reaction Request Thread

To celebrate the New Year's any patron (both tiers) is welcome to submit. Nothing long.

NOVID Summary Thumbnail PSD

I will upload more assets in the coming weeks.

Note - Taking a Sponsorship

As you might know, I tend not to take sponsorships. Most of the time it's because they're not really relevant. This one is kinda relevant in a general sense, but I just want to make sure everyone is okay with it.  This is not a product review, it's just a "Hey, check this out" sorta thing. I also did my own research on it, and it seems legit.

This also means I can effectively pay the people I've hired for help a little more, ie. Skrullz for music, Melancholy and Kei for translation...

Spectres of Anitube PSD File

As part of the patron perks, any thumbnail I draw (including the incredibly stupid ones) will be uploaded onto Patreon. See the fine print fellas, I promised that. Anyhow, here's a PSD for the Spectres of Anitube thumbnail. It's not blue, mainly because this was printed out on paper and then photographed under blue lighting, so the original is black and white in its original resolution.

You can do anything you want with it, just don't pawn it off as your own lol. I'll be uploading more ...

$5 video request tier set up, also discounted annual payment option set up.

Hi y'all,

I got a $5 tier set up, plus an annual payment option for people who want to financially plan on an annual basis. There's a 16% discount applied, it's the biggest Patreon lets me put in (hipster racket), so sorry it's not bigger.

For people who want to make requests, I'll be making weekly request posts for the $5 tier, so you need to be in that tier to make requests. This is mainly so I don't have to manually filter who is and isn't in that tier.

I don't think it c...

Update Video

I'll make this public tomorrow after I get all the book club stuff sorted out. I'll also make a new post for Patron recommendations once I get all that sorted out as well.

Transition Index Files (2020-10-31)

A transition index file is just a set of transitions I made for my videos. I don't use many of them, but if you feel like you want to use them, please feel free to!

Every time I add more transitions, I'll upload them. I kept them as a Premiere Pro file because I find it's slightly easier to just copy and paste the adjustment layers and get the desired effect.

Patreon Live Hangout at 10 PM EST tonight, talk about random stuff while I make a thumbnail for the next video.

See title.

At minute 31 of 45 minutes on next video.

Sorry about the delays. Assuming nothing explodes in my face, it'll be up this coming week.

General Footage Cut (Japan Sinks 2020-01)

It's not rendered at 50 CBR like usual, so the video quality low, but here's the footage of me and I'll be in editing a lot more stuff. Sorry about the delays. 

Taking Patron Questions for ending credits of new video (Japan Sinks 2020)

Just respond to them here, and I'll put your question (let me know if you want to be anonymous) in the ending credits.

Japan Sinks 2020 Preliminary Script

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1feSAPz0-3BpT3xdB2iRkU1_BAgAZ5YvzaP_gtDXChHg/edit?usp=sharing

Here's a preliminary script, I gotta figure out a way to trim and down and simplify it. I am very worried, because I feel like if I come back to this script I will add to it.

But yeah, just to keep everyone updated.
