Hi all! Apologies for the lack of recent posts and updates.
As some of you may know, I've spent the last three months working on an upcoming project called Sweetwater. It's going to be a murder mystery/investigation show and it requires dozens of maps, hundreds of icons, and a LOT of planning, all of which I have to do myself. I'll do a formal WIP update on that soon!
As some of you may ALSO know, ever since November my hands have been in absolutely terri...

Hi! Earlier this year I had watched all the Bond movies with the intention to release a video when the new Bond film, "No Time to Die" came out in April!
But Covid-19 moved it back to... November. So I watched all those movies and didn't really have an outlet for it. By the time November comes around I probably won't remember very much about any given film and I might not make a video at all, so I figured it'd be better if I gave you guys this audio clip of my best rec...

Hello!
"What is this thing?", you might be wondering!
Well, way back in the day before "So This is Basically" and even before "Welcome To", the first thing I ever did on YouTube was a little dub of a webcomic called Cucumber Quest. It was the first thing I ever directed, cast, AND edited! And it shows!!!
We got a few videos out back in the day covering the Prologue, Chapter 0, and mo...

So This is Basically Illustrator Siv joins Jello as he goes over his After Effects file and explains some of the tips and tricks he used for recreating Persona 5's unique animation style found in its opening, menus, and UIUX!
My storyboards for our latest video, So This is Basically Persona 5! For those who don't know, I write and storyboard the videos. Siv does the final Illustration. Boards 1-8 are visible above.
As per usual, here are some of my favorite Behind-the-Scenes exchanged with Siv and I on Discord! https://imgur.com/a/rp6RQ0C
Note that there ARE spoilers for Persona 5 2020-04-06 22:47:45 +0000 UTC View Post
A compilation of jokes that didn't make it into the video and outtakes from our Voice Actors! Featuring myself, Alejandro Saab as Ryuji, and Brandon Acosta as Mishima.
Cut lines are first, then outtakes/bloopers. The halves of the video are separated by a double-beep instead of a single one.
New video! So this is Basically Persona 5! This video is officially sponsored by Atlus, making it the first "official" StiB we've ever made! Wowza!
This video has lots of extra content exclusively available for Patrons! Click below for:
Hey all!

Once again this video will have Piph0 as our editor and Juliana Chen doing the fabulous illustrations! Her sketches are pictured above. This video will hopefully be releasing on March 13th.

Here they are! The full commentary track list for Epithet Erased, featuring commentary from myself, lead audio engineer Emily Fajardo, and lead SFX designer Natalie Van Sistine.
I've put EP5 as the preview episode just because I think the commentary for the Western Arc episodes is a little more entertaining than the commentary for the Museum Arc episodes! Hope you enjoy!
EPISODE SELECTION LIST:
[WARNING: CONTAINS HEAVY SPOILERS FOR PERSONA 5]
So I was asked to make a StiB for specifically just Persona 5! I'm having some trouble with it and I hoped that talking about the game at length like I usually do with the other Open Thoughts posts would help.
Mmmm not really?

A small collection of outtakes from Season 1 of Epithet Erased! As a bonus, I've included all of the unused commercial eyecatch dialogue that didn't make it into the show!
"I got confuzzled."
Dawn is trying to say "Now I'm trying to think of western sayings..." but she absolutely said "Now I'm trying to think of western sex" so I'm including it.

Hey all! I've been dying to record more behind-the-scenes stuff for Epithet and get to work on the Outtakes and Commentary tracks), but I got the flu over the holidays! So I've been bedridden for four days instead of getting time off!
So, instead of doing those things (which will probably start releasing to Patreon in mid-to-late January) I decided to upload one of the most-requested posts: An official eyecatch/epithet reveal card template for your original characters! 2019-12-30 22:14:35 +0000 UTC View Post

Hello new patrons!
Sorry for the radio silence! I'm going to be working 24/7 wrapping up production on Epithet Erased's first season next week, and IMMEDIATELY after that I'm flying up to Chicago for a week to decompress over the holidays. I've been working nonstop since the start of September and averaging about 1 day off a month.
If you've messaged me or are waiting for Patron rewards, you'll have to wait until after I get back on the 29th!
The amount of work I'm juggling ...

This is a bit of an aesthetic spoiler for Epithet Erased, so if you want to go into the show totally blind, maybe skip this post!
So! As you probably know by this point, our new show Epithet Erased has a boppin', jazzy, electro-swing ending theme called Great at Crime. It's sung by the Banzai Blasters, who are a bunch of garbage teenage bad guys who aren't good at anything, but ...

Epithet Erased comes out tomorrow morning! Wow!!! To celebrate, here's a preview of another character! This time around it's Zora, the stupidly powerful bounty hunter who dresses like a cowboy for some reason.
Zora is one of the series' main antagonists, Bliss Ocean. She's the only one we get to formally meet this season, and she's the bad guy in Episodes 5-7!
Zora's VA is the fabulous Dawn M. Bennett, who was VERY excited to voice a stinky cowboy.

Hello all! Sorry for the radio silence! I've been meaning to post more previews of the show, but I've quite literally have never been this busy in my entire life! I'm working an average of 12-14 hours a day managing everything. To be honest, it's real rough!

Giovanni is the best character in the show. This is a fact.

Typical VA sessions go 4 hours maximum in order to avoid wearing out the ac...
