Liberace Thanksgiving [Patreon Freebie!]

My Thanksgiving gift to you. Thanks for everything!

Fun With Shorts! Dining Together

You gotta love holiday shorts (it was part of your agreement when you signed up for Patreon)! 

And I'll be back later this week with another seasonal treat...

Behind the Scenes: YouTube and the FTC

This post might be boring, and the bottom line will likely not affect the Fun With Shorts Patreon. I'm just sharing these thoughts for the curious and those who might find themselves in a similar conundrum. 

YouTube has been found in violation of COPPA, a 20-year-old law intended to protect the privacy of children online. As part of t...

Fun With Shorts! I Like Bikes

A bike who likes bikes can't wait to tell you all the things that are bad about bikes.

Fun With Shorts! Red Riding Hood [PATREON EXCLUSIVE!]

Here's your Patreon-only episode for November. Another animated version of Little Red Riding Hood. This one was made in 1992 but lovingly crafted to look like it was made in 1973. 

Welcome to our new patrons, and high fives all around! 

Fun With Shorts! No Ghosts

Happy Halloween! This one... this one kinda got away from me.

Fun With Shorts! Sneakers [Patreon Exclusive]

Here's a bonus riff for patron eyes only. Thanks for your support! 

Fun With Shorts! The Wonder of Water

A science film from the Moody Bible Institute? For real? OK, that's a weird request, but I'm happy to oblige! 

Fun With Shorts! The Impossible Map [PATREON EXCLUSIVE!]

Here's your exclusive short for October! I think I'll have at least one freebie video for you before the month is through as well. This one is... kinda weird? See for yourself.

Also, once in a while I like to reiterate a hearty WELCOME to our new patrons, and to remind you all that you can contact me any time here on Patreon or at funwiths...

Fun With Shorts! The Spanish Explorers

Just in time for our favorite holiday, enjoy another (physically) warped and (thematically) outdated short. It's Christopher Columbus as you've likely seen him many times before! 

Fun With Shorts! Paul Bunyan

The great American tall tale gets the Mel-O-Toon treatment, and the results are... not great!

I'm going away tomorrow for about a week, so you're getting Monday's Patreon preview a little early. A lot early, I guess. Hope you like it! 

Fun With Shorts! Law and Social Controls

I mean, what kind of friend asks you to watch something called "Law and Social Controls"? Something to think about, guys.

Fun With Shorts! The Cinematographer

Cinematographers are scientific and artistic geniuses, every single one of them. Prepare to grovel at their feet. 

Fun With Shorts! Bear Claw

Another Lone Ranger adventure*!

[*LEGAL NOTICE: The word "adventure" as employed in the previous statement does not in any legally-binding way connote action, excitement, or pathos.] 

Fun With Shorts! Skipper Learns a Lesson [PATREON EXCLUSIVE!]

I could give you three guesses and you probably wouldn't be able to predict what Skipper's deal is. He's... he's got issues. Happy September, here's your exclusive riff! 

Fun With Shorts! Charley Junior's School Days

In which an unborn infant gets a crash course in Britain's education system. The feel-good hit of the summer.

Patreon Extra: Three Commercials (Joy, Monkey's Uncle, and Genteel Baby)

Here's a freebie just for you patrons. Thanks, gang!

Fun With Shorts! The Mailman

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night can make this movie particularly interesting.

Thanks, patrons! I'll be back later in the week with a little something special. 

Fun With Shorts! The Adventures of Junior Raindrop

I doubt you guys have any room left in your hearts for a new Fun With Shorts mascot character, but here comes Junior Raindrop! 

Oh, and welcome new patrons! 

Fun With Shorts! Fire Cheese [PATREON EXCLUSIVE]

Here's our Patreon exclusive for August. I don't remember seeing Gabby ever before, and I kind of long for those bygone days, to be honest. 

Fun With Shorts! David & Goliath

Hey, patron pals! I'm away all next week, so I'm delivering the new short a little early. It's another Mel-O-Toon, and a Bible story at that! Good times. Hope you're having a great summer, and I'll be back on Monday, August 5 with a new post. Cheers!

Fun With Shorts! Space

It takes a minute to figure out what this short is about (and not about). And then it's like, "Oh. Huh." Enjoy!

Fun With Shorts! Watch The Quotation

The Coronet kids are back with a cautionary tale of attribution and punctuation. Buckle up!

Fun With Shorts! Monty

Another animated treat for you, patrons. July is always a crazy month, I have to double or even triple up on production to get enough shorts done to keep my release schedule despite a couple of vacation weeks. It's crazy but fun. Got another Coronet school short coming, as well as a couple of old cartoons and another biblical Mel-O-Toon. Stay tu...

Fun With Shorts! Children Are Creative [PATREON EXCLUSIVE]

Happy July, patrons! 

New Podcast

I think I mentioned a while back that I was working on a new podcast, and it's been out there for a few months now. I've been waiting to find my footing a bit before plugging it here on Patreon. It features my friend Dan and me rewatching our favorite movies to see how they hold up. I'm so used to working alone and on scripted content, here's my...

Fun With Shorts! Let's Go To The Movies

Even the history of the movies gets awkward real quick. 

Fun With Shorts: A Time To Die!

The Lone Ranger's back with all the clock puns. 

Fun With Shorts! How To Remember

This could have been a practical guide to remembering important personal information, instead it's this dork memorizing a poem. Thanks for nothing, Coronet.

Fun With Shorts! Learning to Set Type [PATREON EXCLUSIVE!]

Hey, patrons! Here's this month's exclusive: ten minutes of hot type-setting action! You'll learn all about the slug, and the line, and the nick, and the plum, and the nimbus, and the trollhole, and the idontknowwhat. It's the best time you'll ever have with a completely obsolete skill set.
