NEW VIDEO! Is Detective Pikachu Ethical?

It's here! I think it'll either go live for everyone tomorrow or on Saturday but either way you get it at least one full day early! I am nervous about this one because I think it will probably make people mad lol. Enjoy!

Heads up! Video incoming!

A video is in the works this week for YOU! If all goes according to plan it'll be in early access either this week or next. Just a warning, this video contains a ton of spoilers for the Detective Pikachu movie so if you have not seen it yet, I recommend not taking advantage of the early access and in fact waiting until you've seen it to watch the video. I WILL be charging Patrons for this video as it is just a 100% original creation and not part of any sponsored content! So if you'd like to a...

About the recent videos!

I had some messages in my inbox from Patrons concerned that I did not mention the last two videos here and weren't sure if they'd been charged or not. I haven't charged for the past two videos because they've been a) probably really different from what people pledged for and b) funded by sponsors instead. I didn't want to charge people for videos that were both not what they wanted in the first place and also advertisements for something else. Let me know how you feel about this, I figured I'...

Pokemon Gold Silver & Crystal Extras

This is some extra footage I recorded for the GSC review that didn't make it into the review in its entirety that still might be interesting to see. It's all some kind of difficult stuff to pull off so if you like the games it might be neat to see.

Sorry for the delay, I moved again. I hate moving. Everything gets all disrupted and now I have to rebuild my office from scratch again when I just finished the last one 3 months ago. But now I finally have fast enough internet at my new plac...

Pokemon Gold Silver and Crystal Review

It is FINALLY here. Work on this video started months ago and I am so relieved to finally have other peoples eyes see it. It was once again a collaborative effort, I hired Nick to edit this video and he got Ace to contribute music and of course Vidit co-wrote the history section (I'll post his original script for this part later because it's really good and you get Behind The Scenes goodies!) And as a special bonus, Serebii Joe himself makes a cameo :3 Enjoy!

New Pokemon Review soon! + new merch!

Hey Patrons! This is your courtesy reminder that I am in fact going to upload a nice long Pokemon Gold and Silver review soon and that this is a good time to change or delete your pledges if you so desire. $20 patrons do get their names in the video permanently so maybe this is the video you want your name on? It's turning out pretty good! But anyway the point being that I will be charging for December so be prepared, whatever that means to you :)

In other news, inspiration struck me to...

I'm alive (and posting a new early access video tonight!)

Hello Patrons!

In case there are some of you here that do not also follow me on Twitter, I figure I owe you a good update on what's goin' on today/this week! I am, drumroll please...

Uploading! A new video! For you!

It will be a pretty standard Pokémon Top 10, so nothing ground breaking, but it will be pretty decent production value and a good 14 minutes long. Aka, exactly what most of you probably are looking for in an upload from yours truly. I am also writing another Pokémon R...

New Content? Soon!?

You may have noticed I haven't uploaded in a while.

The main problem now is that because I am in school and I have a part time job on the side, I can't find the time or energy to work on anything in my down time. So I was thinking this week and trying to come up with some content that would maybe not take as long, but still be fun and somewhat unique to what I can offer.

What I came up with was a Let's Play series of a game I know very well, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, so that I would be a...

Pokémon Diamond & Pearl Extras - Scripts

Hey everybody~ It's finally time to share with you some of the behind the scenes info on my latest video, the Diamond and Pearl review! Obviously, a video this long took a very very long time to write, and the writing process itself was one of the most interesting parts this time around, because it was a collaborative effort! So today I'm going to share with you the various different versions of scripts that ended up getting written before the version you know came to be. These scripts are long ...

Not dead, just studying!

Heya! I know it's been a while with basically no creative updates, so here's a little something to let you know what's been going on in my "absence." Besides a whole lot of tweeting lol

I've been back at school for the past three months! I just completed my first term back and I finally have a few weeks off now to try to get some work done on my video. I also have a whole lot of other life-related-things to cram in so this is going to be a very busy "time off" for me. But I'm currently in the ...

Your $15+ rewards are on their way!

Yes, it's come at last. At last it's come. The day you knew would come at last has come... at last.

I am MAILING out your $15+ Patron rewards today! I wrote out a thank you note and signed a card for each and every one of you who pledged $15 or more and by the time you're reading this they will be in the hands of the postal service on their way to you, across seas and borders.

Tier Reward Info!

Hey lovely patient friends!

I have sent out a mass Patreon message to everyone in the $15+ reward tier who has not given me shipping info for your cards. I appreciate that so many of you got back to me so quick! I'm getting envelopes this week and then I'll get everything signed written up and shipped out! Make sure to check your messages if you haven't already.

Once I'm certain that I have mailed everyone a card who pledged for one, I'll probably be removing that tier. I'm slow when it ...

Hey kids!

My nose is feeling mostly better. I just wanna wait for it to be a little less sore before I try putting makeup on and shooting a video about it. But I am getting bored so I will probably film within the next week or so.

The other thing I wanted to mention is that I'm kind of, for now, abandoning the concept of doing the show in seasons and focusing more on what I'm interested in at the moment. It was a fun thought experiment but ultimately my goal now is just to get a lot of v...

Early Access: Top 10 Player Characters in Pokémon

A new Top 10 is here, and is yours exclusively for around 24 hours. Enjoy Patrons!

Sorry to say there isn't any behind the scenes stuff for this particular video, Top 10s (at least, Pokemon Top 10s) require a lot less planning.

April Update (and SURGERY!)

Hi kids! April has been one heck of a frustrating month. I decided a while back if you recall that I should try and squeeze some Top 10s into my line up, and I've gotten the ball rolling on that by starting three separate Top 10 videos, one of which is a Pokemon Top 10. I was sure that I would be able to get at least one if not two finished and up this month but my health took quite a nose dive following tax season and I have basically been in a lot of pain for the last three weeks nonstop.

Disney Educational Games Shooting Day: Whiteboard Scenes

I love illustrating my own videos, but it's never a simple thing to accomplish. My vision for this part of the video originally involved a chalk board, for that added "Educational" effect. Sometimes you just need some interesting visuals to spice up an information dump.

I went to the craft store and found the only chalk board I could find. Fun thing about chalk board chalk though, it doesn't glide like sidewalk chalk does, which makes it nearly ...

Disney Interactive Educational Games Storyboard

Here we go, the storyboard for the second Disney video. This one I put a little more care into just because I had the time to do it and I really needed the illustrations for the whiteboard parts to be super clear. 

But it does get sloppier as I go on. Sometimes when you're on a roll you just gotta get things written out as fast as possible to keep up with your brain.

These notes really ...

Disney Interactive Computer Games Storyboard

I'm not entirely sure how to format these posts, because I realize it might be extremely difficult to read my handwriting and Patreon is not friendly to embedding images.  But basically, after I write the script, the next step is to plan how I'm going to illustrate each point, either through shots that I film or through editing. I started doing these "storyboards" after the PPG Chemical XTraction video because I realized I wasn't filming enough footage to cover everything, and it just got e...

Disney Interactive Footage Notes

Generally, the first step in making any video is to play the game! And while you play the game, you get ideas for things to talk about in your script. I try to take notes while I play so that I remember some of those ideas I have in the moment about funny things that happen or points I'd like to make. These would probably be more useful in the end if I also recorded time codes to match them exactly to my footage, but most of the time just jotting the ideas down is enough to remind me what the ba...

90s Disney Interactive Educational Games (Early Access)

This is my first time charging so hopefully I did it right. Enjoy your early access to the new video!

I had quite a time getting this finished in the last couple days. It's very long, there's probably some parts I could have cut out, but for all my trouble I wanted it to be extra meaty.

Addendum

So something went wrong. I can fix it but I will not even come close to meeting the already passed 9AM PST deadline I set for myself. Good job me. Way to kick this Patreon thing off with a bang.

If for some reason you do not, you can always follow my Twitter   for minute to minute updates on the whole debacle. 

For now, soup.

Patrons, get ready for your rewards!

Tomorrow morning at 9AM PST I will be uploading a video to this page that you will be charged for, for the very first time. Any pledges of $2 and above will have early access. Just thought I'd give you a heads up as to what to expect and when! After the video is posted to this page it will be made public 24 hours later for everyone to see on my YouTube channel.

This video will be the first to mention my $20+ pledges (cutting off anyone who may have pledged after I render the video of course, w...

You Never Stop Learning

Hey everybody! How you been? It's been a bit since I last posted here but don't fret, I have not disappeared or given up. I've been having some bad mental health recently which has made it difficult to work. It seems to go like that a lot. Whenever I'm already behind, setbacks keep piling on. I have gotten some work done this week though so little by little I'm getting it done. Sometimes very little.
