Critical Bits video premieres T O N I G H T

Embedded is a trailer I made for the video (strong language). The video itself will premiere here in about two hours at 7 EST. I'm publishing it with the YouTube premiere function so there will be a live chat as it plays. Joel will be in the chat as well I assume on the Critica...

Critical Bits episode 1 long rough

Note that I'll never charge any money here for these, just sharing because I'm happy with how it's coming along and wanted to share it as a behind-the-scenes video and because I'd love any suggestions/notes people have.

I need to
1) make assets for and edit the Austin segment (cut from this rough because I didn't have anything for it y...

Skeleton Soldier regiew now live

Thanks again for the support! This one DOES have the Oceanographer's Choice stuff haha

Skeleton Soldier Couldn't Protect the Dungeon review backer early version

Here's another review for a different Korean webcomic that I really enjoy. Some slight spoilers for the series in this vid along with a lot of talking about sexual assault. I can't believe I forgot to put a little ode to Oceanographer's Choice in. Oh well. That's...

Trying the premiere function in an hour (6 PM EST)

Finished the final version of the twitter art video and I'm trying out streaming/the premiere option. So at that link in a little under an hour (hopefully????) I'll be streaming and chatting in the chat box. I want to do a version of FF2 with commentary and might do a premiere in the same style for it so I want to try it out with something short...

Critical Bits video partial rough (not charging/won't charge for stuff like this don't worry)

This is a side project I've been working on where I'm taking the first episode of the podcast I'm on and editing a full-length video of it sort of in the style of a visual novel with chararacter art with different expressions and motion backgrounds and some simple animations and the like. Trying to give it the vibe of like a video game or cartoo...

Art on twitter video early backer release

I wanted to get the CYOA video done but then Bandersnatch happened and I'll need time to cover that. So I made this instead. Need to double-check research/pronunciation/etc on it and make sure nobody I'm recommending is a secret weirdo but it's pretty much done. If you speak Japanese or know more than I do about bots and I got something wrong in...

Eighth Grade Review

eighth grade sucks but this movie was good!! that's my review!!!

2018 horror games video update

(image from Moko's Advice)

So! I have been working more on the big 2018 horror game video (also working on full version of the Scruggs and CYOAM videos and other stuff but tonight mostly the horror video haha). I think it would be fun to play 100 games and do...

 I'm on the android browser on mobile so hopefully this formats and sends properly lol

Philosophy Tube just put out an excellent video https://youtu.be/kVav1ri65Ws as kind of a response/counter-point to parasocial discourse and he named chararacters after Lindsay...

BALLAD OF BUSTER SCRUGGS review early rough

The beginning segment talks about tone and themes in the film if you consider that kind of a thing a spoiler.

Still need to do the segment on The Gal Who Got Rattled, write up thoughts on Native American characters in the film, and finish a conclusion, stuff like that. But I know people have been looking forward to this one (at least...

Merch ideas/looking for input + multi-charge reminder

Hey! I'm working on a couple more reviews to get out soon- please feel free to limit your donations to 1-2 times a month if you do not want to get charged 2-3 times for November. I would much rather have people limit donations than get annoyed at me putting out 3 videos and stop supporting so I encourage you to do that and not feel bad about it.

NEW ROUGH- deep dive into cinematic interactive storytelling

Decided to do notes as voiceover at the end of the video rather than here. Very happy with how this one is coming along!!!!

Sorry to Bother You review now back up!!

did a bunch of weird stuff with the video/audio. hopefully this one stays up lol

More updates + do you have 2018 horror game recs?

What are some really good cheap or freeware indie horror games from 2018? Can be on itch.io or steam or really wherever and they can be more traditional games or text-based or walking sims or etc, I don't care. Emphasis on it being easy for people to find/play, preferably being short, and smaller teams doing weird creative stuff vs AAA horror. I wa...

UPDATES UPDATES UPDATES (lots of stuff!)

CRITICAL BITS EPISODE ONE IS OUT!!!! http://criticalbitcast.libsyn.com/episode-1-welcome-to-heavendale Our actual play teen superhero podcast!! iTunes and Spotify links hopefully forthcoming after the upload is approved. I'm very happy with epi...

I'm one of the hosts of a new actual play tabletop podcast!! Ep 1 patron rough!!

(Note- this is on Google drive- if the link stops working let me know and I can find a different hosting method) Hey! My friend Joel is the GM of a new TTRPG actual play podcast called Critical Bits and I'm on the main cast. This is a rough edit of the first episode that will drop publicly on the 20th. It's currently using the Masks system based o...

Plans for the next fake friends spinoff

I don't know if this will change as I write the script, but what I have planned is a video that will have a title along the lines of "how to make real friends" or "go make real friends" or something like that that will be about 1) my personal advice on forming and maintaining friendships 2) some aspects of the science of friendships (how people inf...

Apostle review now live!

Thanks again to the patron who politely let me know I was pronouncing the title wrong lol. I would much rather get corrections like that than sound like a dumbass when a video goes live

NEW HORROR VIDEO PATRON ROUGH

Was trying to finish this by this afternoon but I'm not happy with some of the wording (seems confusing in parts and I need to either reorder or rephrase it) and I might want to change the motion backgrounds. Also have some interview clips to use and need to change the intro since it's not coming out on Halloween anymore. And add more visuals towar...

SURPRISE HORROR MOVIE REVIEW! Happy Halloween :)

This was a pretty simple video to cut (lots of me talking) or I wouldn't have been able to cut it so quickly haha. I am very happy with it :) Though also very tired. I go out of town tomorrow night and come back Sunday afternoon and I want to finish something else to release on Halloween. Not sure if I'll be able to. So, if I can't, Happy Halloween...

EXCITED ABOUT HITTING $800!!! AND 20K SUBS!! + monthly versus per-video (looking for input)

Aaaaa!!! $800 is so much!!! Thanks, y'all! That's wild!! (here's a pic of me and a chihuahua to celebrate) 

Also, as kind of an experiment, I added a goal of $2.5K per month with the idea that at 2.5K I could comfortably switch to monthly charging vs per-video charging. $2,500 is a lot but I could make that now at a few shorter videos a mont...

Mandy review axed (and why) (plus review notes)

So when I went into watching Mandy I don't think I knew that Casper Kelly had directed the Cheddar Goblin segment, or I only had a very vague idea of it. I am not close friends with Casper or anything but I do know him through Atlanta film/comedy stuff and he's familiar with my work. Recently I paneled at Monsterama, an Atlanta horror con, and got ...

BO BURNHAM VIDEO NOW COMPLETED/LIVE

Wooooooooo!!

Repeat Stuff Poster rough

THIS IS VERY ROUGH and I'm still playing with it, not looking for feedback really because I know it looks really rough and I want it to be a fun/learning kind of project for me since I never draw or do graphic design much anymore, but I got home from a trip to Athens today and was tired and didn't feel like researching/editing and instead I started...

Repeat Stuff updated rough

This is still a work in progress with any part of it subject to change but I'm really happy with how it's coming together. Redid voiceover here and there, especially the intro, and added a couple small segments. Still going to cut some segments down (the political correctness interview clips probably, along with the Halloween part) and add in a cou...

New burnham/repeat stuff rough (now on youtube!)

Now it has about three seconds of Viacom content instead of 35-40 seconds lol. Having fun with this one with minor VFX. Also possibly my most potentially offensive video ever? Trying to navigate this stuff tactfully

REEPEAT STUFF ROUGH

Hopefully this works and doesn't get blocked from too many people viewing it?? Enjoy!!! I'll be home later to try to get something better up lol
