Tutorial: Transformative Sampling #1

Ohhhh it's Feature Time!! This one's a showcase of a specific fun lil set of tricks I've been using lately to take a specific type of sample and turn it into something more versatile. The example is very silly, but I assure you I've been getting great mileage out of non-silly usage...

I've attached my "Special Tool" (read: very basic python script) that I use at a certain point in the video in case you want to Try This At Home.

Recording with the H6essential has been a GREAT succe...

June Update

Hey everyone! I've been back in the UK for a couple weeks after my Big American Vacation. It was very fun, though I did instantly get sick upon returning home and immediately have to work a bunch of 12-hour shifts - a jarring return to Real Life 😩(skip to the "Mainline Transparency" heading at the bottom of this post if you just wanna skip to what I'm working on moving forward)

The trip was great, though it mostly consisted of me Getting Scared And Pointing At Things

WIP Batch #1

From yesterday's vote, "handful of WIP's" won! So that means I'm here to drop a small handful of little unfinished tracks before I catch my plane in the morning. I'll add some small detail for each here, and attach all of the tracks at the bottom of the post (unfortunately it looks like I can't have multiple playable "media" instead of attachments, let me know if I'm just missing something!). Bear in mind that I tend not to focus much on the mixing til toward the end of a track's production, ...

Pick tomorrow's feature

Hey! So, I'm about to leave on a trip to the US for a few weeks. I've been fiddling with an external DAW recording setup between work and trip-preparations and I'm not quite there yet*, so I'm very much going to have to go for a "thing I already have on my computer" approach this month.

Couple of easy ones I can think of. Either:

a) A small handful of semi-recent WIP's (i.e. short unfinished tracks that I intend to finish, of varying quality), like I pick out a few ones that're de...

Preview: "Movement" (Preview #1)

One of the 'bigger' videos I've been working on on-and-off for the past few years is tentatively named "Movement". It's based on a controversial subject very close to my heart (pooping at work... wait wait, I know, but just trust me on this one!!). I actually fully wrote, recorded, and scored the audio for this a few years ago, but the visuals have required a great deal of work in Blender and After Effects (and learning how to use them) that've slowed things down while I struggl...

Bonus: Jerry's Long Drive

Often, my friends get me to stream games for them. This is, presumably, because I am the kind of person who struggles with simple tasks in a way that they find amusing. During a busy period, they asked me to record this so that they wouldn't miss out on a certain adventure's Epic Conclusion. For the first time, this is being shared publicly (with an added intro for context). My friends loved it, will the random people online who don't know me personally? WHO KNOWS.

(Admittedly I'm a lil...

Preview: "Dragging"

A recent morning, I couldn't sleep (despite having been up all night) yet suddenly got struck with inspiration for... something? Feverishly followed through in one sitting, there was very specific imagery for it in my head the whole time, so I think I'm gonna make a video for it! Here's the current audio.

My next "big" video has been hinging on me setting aside the time to get a better grip on Blender and After Effects. So I'm thinking, this 1.5 min audio is the perfect li...

Pre-Mortems: "Halley and the Snake Men"

Here's the first episode of my new Patreon-exclusive series "Pre-Mortems", exploring the things that died before they got the chance to live*. We're starting with that "rock opera based on the Metal Gear novel" project I mentioned back in Interpretation. Lemme know how you feel about this style of video. It's a very "mid-2010's YouTuber Who Talks About Video Games" kinda setup, but I'm havin fun with it.

*Now, TECHNICALLY "pre-mortem" is already a term with a different meaning, but that...

The Plan...

Hey everyone! Here's what's goin on (and WILL be goin on):

For one, I'm surprised with the reception this Patreon's got within less than a day of "Interpretation" coming out. Because I haven't actually announced the Patreon anywhere other than at the end of a very messy 54-minute video essay!! (I felt that the video works better if you don't know about the Patreon beforehand - a pretty silly move to make a Patreon and announce it in such an inefficient way, but it had to b...

It begins. It cannot be stopped. Also, welcome!

Hey! It appears you have chosen (or have BEEN chosen, simply through the act of viewing this page) to Give Me Money. And that's pretty great in my book! What does that mean for you? Well, I've already said exactly what this Patreon is all about in my "about" section, AND in this video. Pick one and get reading/watching!

Essentially, I'm making some Patreon-exclusive features over here to kickstart me into The Year of Jerry, in which I'm hoping to up my productivity and get back into mak...
