Dai Reviews: The Witcher 3
Since there seem to be a decline in poster and video requests, I decided to get rid of the slot structure and go back to the 2016 request structure. In other words, if you have a poster request, you can request it at anytime as long as you did not used up the amount of posters you can request for the month. Same thing for video requests.
Keep in mind, you have to ask me these requests by sending me a DM on Patreon, or on the #Patrons chat on 2018-02-26 19:44:02 +0000 UTC View Post
This Week’s Completed Project
The animation for the Master Emerald video is done. Originally, I thought lighting for video would be a difficult thing, but it was a lot simpler than I thought. By increasing the FarZ Attenuation on the Key and Fill lights, the lights were able to successfully light the whole environment. I plan to use this technique for future videos that require a large environment to light. Technically speaking, I’m still waiting for the sound editor to f...

This Week’s Completed Projects
THE WITCHER 3 REVIEW IS FINALLY DONE! I finally…FINALLY finished the review. I thought lighting would have taken me a long time to do, but it was really simple. The only issue I had was in post-production in which I positioned some of the rim lights incorrectly and I had to re-render some of those scenes. But other than that, I have no complaints. Also, Digit...
I don't remember if one Patron here complained about it here or not, but I want to make sure everyone has been getting the Thank You card when pledging. I would greatly appreciate it if all new Patrons this month let me know! The Thank You Messages are very important to me and I would feel bad if you haven't received any.
2018-02-15 23:07:28 +0000 UTC View PostI want to apologize for the delaying this Weekly Progress post for so long. I had to take care of some IRL stuff for the past two days. With that said, here’s this week’s post.
This Week’s Completed Projects
Originally, I thought I could finish the Splatoon 2 video and the Witcher 3 review last week, but I focused more on the Splatoon 2 video since I knew the Witcher 3 review will require a lot of time setting up the lighting. I don’t really have a lot to comment...
2018-02-13 14:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostDue to several IRL things, I will be delaying the next Weekly Progress post to this Tuesday. Sorry for the delay guys :(
2018-02-12 02:17:08 +0000 UTC View PostMan! It’s been a while since I done a weekly post here. However, I hope to be active here again, so let’s talk about everything I done during the YouTube's animation hiatus.
This Week's Completed Projects
I finished the My Hero Academia parody sometime ago. Lighting the video was a lot tougher than I imagined. Not because of the map, but due to the fact the Urakara model isn’t really the best-looking model when lit. Either way, the parody is finished an...
2018-02-05 01:40:43 +0000 UTC View PostPer usual, I'm allowing 5 poster requests and 2 animation requests for the month of February. If you're a Patron at the right tier, please let me know your request here or on the discord server.
Thanks guys! Looking forward towards seeing some of the requests!

Like I said last week, I finished the 100K Subscriber Special as planned. I don't really have a lot to comment for the project except that I really enjoyed editing the VFX for the project. The only annoying part of the video was the hallway scene for the AMV special. I expect to drop the video sometime in February or March, or when the channel hits 100K. Normally, I would post screenshots of the video, but I have the video available for all Patr...
Normally, I would set this video for $50+ Patrons, but considering that this is a very special video thanking everyone for helping me reach 100K, I'm allowing all Patrons to see the video. I'll release the vid sometime in Feb or March or when the channel hits 100K.

I finally finished that Jojo video which I was really blown away by the lighting for the Part 2 scenes. But, I was not really happy about the lighting for the VERY final scene for the video. I won't go into details about it since it'll spoil the joke, but it's a very minor complaint. You can expect the video to come out between March or April. Here are some screenshots from the video.

So, I'm 21 seconds away from finishing this 100K Subscriber Special. Since this is a parody of Haruhi Suzumiya's first opening, I thought this would be a cool thing to do with you guys.
Near the end of Haruhi's Opening, there's a montage of all things she does while she strikes a pose at the very end. I thought it would be cool that you guys could suggest some of the things my avatar could do during these scenes. You can even put your avatar in there if you want. 2017-12-22 13:28:36 +0000 UTC

Might add one more character for the before the leaping scene, but the hardest part of the vid is almost done.

The only project I finished this week is the final t-shirt video of the year. I don't really have a lot to comment on this video other than how amazing the lighting was. Other than that, the project was pretty straightforward. You can expect the video this Tuesday and $5+ Patrons should be able to view it now. If not, then here are a few screenshots for you to en...
Sorry for the late post! Here are all of the projects done this week!
This Week's Completed Project
So I finished the Tumblr video last week. Animating most of the skits in the video were pretty straightforward. The only issue I had was lighting the moving bus scene in the video. But it was more of a mild annoyance. With that said, the video should come out in March.

Note: There are blank scenes in here on purpose. I'm going to fill them in After Effects or Premiere.
