I guess spoilers? As far as you can spoil video essays?
For my own sake in recording this I split it into parts. It was a 20 page script and I split it up into 9 segments for recording then would record 1-3 a night with my tonsils swollen and whatever. I ended up with about 4 hours of VO.
I have ALL of the VO sort of organized and split int...

IT'S FINISHED I might put out some other stuff in between finishing this since this is a behemoth and I have other fun ideas kicking around and don't wanna put out like three essays right at the end of the month ha. But we'll see I'll get a solid count later but assuming I don't have to retake anything that was probably 3-4 hours+ of VO with swolle...

let me know what you think! this is gonna be the feel-bad essay of the year. I go really dark and weird and honest and want to try to do some VFX and stuff for it.
This is just made up of interview and short film and essay and etc clips. The full essay might be an hour or more long depending on what I cut from the script. I know it's taken foreve...

2018-04-27 06:11:31 +0000 UTC View PostI linked my ko-fi in the comments on my patreon and tweeted it once and I ended up with enough donations to cover most of me getting a used PC that has better specs than my iMac??? It should be delivered within the next week. It also let me get a cooling pad for my old laptop which I've been using to do freelance, some suction cups to try to take a...

So my workstation that I've had since 2014 (it's a 2011 model I got used) is very quickly deteriorating. It started Thursday night/Friday morning. It seems like a graphics card/GPU issue. I tried hooking up an external monitor hoping it was just the display and it's definitely something more complicated than that. Oof. It'll work intermittently the...

-Parasocial ep 2, which has gotten a lot heavier/more interesting as I collected research and clips over time. Debating on how I want to handle a lot of it tonally (balancing going too soft on stuff I find harmful vs being read as too mean/cynical)

2017-12-24 04:32:59 +0000 UTC View PostHey! Patreon's recent updates/mistakes were really scary for both patrons and creators. Thanks to everyone who stuck around! Please know though that if the site does anything you are not comfortable with in the future that I'd rather people cancel pledges than stay out of obligation.
I have a ko-fi now as well if anyone is more comfortable with o...

Hey! Barring any horrible technical failures or etc the uncanny valley essay is gonna be finished tonight and up tomorrow. Some stuff came up and I might also put a review out tomorrow. Reviews are relatively easy for me to do (compared to 30-40 minute documentary-style essays, haha) and I wanted to know if any of you had a particular film you thin...
2017-11-29 20:03:54 +0000 UTC View PostIt is maybe the longest essay script I've ever written? There aren't many clips with audio I'm gonna use so it may not be my longest VIDEO but that was exhausting to record haha. 10+ pages when the Hannibal script was a little under 10 and the PC one was under 9. Anyway this one should be out before December. It's gonna be really weird and educatio...

Look forward to part two of the parasocial essay, my next video with Hbomb, and the uncanny valley essay all hopefully next month! Got too caught up in freelance this month to do much more than write a whole lot. Current uncanny valley essay is 8 pages long which is longer than my avera...

I realized I forgot to post the video I did with Hbomb! So there it is aha
The uncanny valley essay ended up way longer and more complicated than I thought it would be so I gave up on doing a bunch of horror theory videos this month and chose to focus on just this one for now. Current script is like eight pages long.

So excited for everyone to see it! When it drops officially I'll be sure to share it here (and again, obviously won't charge for it). Hbomb shared it with his patrons so if you support him you can go check it out RIGHT NOW Also I'm paneling some at the horror con Monsterama in Atlanta this weekend! If you're around come say hi! Thanks! Shannon

Note that I'm gonna upload this separately to schedule it to post a couple days from now, so any comments/views/etc on this youtube link wont go public. But I figured since I finished this so quickly I'd put it up early for y'all!

Thanks y'all! Remember that if more than one video a month is too much, you should set a monthly maximum for donations. It doesn't bother me at all (I definitely don't want to take more than anyone is comfortable giving!).
