2017-11-05 11:11:03 +0000 UTC View PostWell its taken pretty much the entire month and half my sanity but Class #6 is finally ready for Halloween. You guys can go watch it here (if you daaaare)
Yeah the week's mostly been taken up by finishing this. The next one probably won't happen for a while, cause as said I've got someone CG animating Class 7. That and I'd like to teach myself this new bit of animation software for the...
2017-10-29 12:15:48 +0000 UTC View PostSo yeah...I finally done a new video...here it is
Hi everyone
Productive week. I've finished Class #6 pictures, done the audio and have begun assembly, though assembly tends to take a lot longer with these cause y'know, sound effects, music, that and the animation (if you can call it that) etc etc, you'll see when I post the making of video. I'll continue assembly over the course of the week and post an early access link on here as soon as I've done it and then general release on Halloween.

2017-10-20 11:29:21 +0000 UTC View Post...what did I say last week again?
Oh yeah: so its mostly been a week spent on drawing Class#6. I've recorded the audio and Jesus Christ the pictures for this thing are taking forever. This one's probably gonna be a little bit longer as there's more elements to it. Y'know how in my Class videos the structure is usually:
-Calm opening
-Unsettling incident
-Contrast turns down
-Extreme violence
-Jokey ending
Weeeeell this one's got a bit more build up th...
2017-10-13 09:45:56 +0000 UTC View PostHello again
So I had a drink with Rob Shearman again at Fantasycon last week (I'm still not used to just thinking of him as "Rob" - you always think of writers by their full credit name for some reason, its weird). Had a lot of fun, he's a lovely man, and he's always full of advice and sets things in perspective. He's told me I shouldn't underestimate the value of my Youtube channel for my writing career in the long run, and he is right. I always just think of it as "some crap I throw together...

2017-09-24 22:00:28 +0000 UTC View PostAaaaaand we're back in the room!
Right: Update. Been a bit of a mad couple of weeks and I've been stressed out a lot. Mostly owing to that life thing I've supposed to have back in the real world, so I haven't had as much time for Youtube videos and I haven't got nearly as much done as I'd like. I've finally gotten up to date on the Doctor Who reviews though so I'm counting September as a win in that department.
I think I've mentioned before but I always forget with these things ...

2017-09-17 18:21:00 +0000 UTC View PostEschewing my regular content update blog, I decided to shoot a little making of video showing the....process? is that what it is? That goes into He Who Moans just for my lovely patrons.
2017-09-17 09:04:45 +0000 UTC View PostKay, I have only just finished the World Enough and Time review, literally just finished uploading. Its been a busy week, so I haven't had a whole lot of time to dedicate to it, that I wanted to make sure I got this right because we're on the home stretch. The last three Moffat episodes, probably ever. I have also watched and scripted my Doctor Falls review as well for the record, that should be ready next week, I actually like it quite a lot more than most people appear to.
Anyway, early Acce...
2017-09-08 21:47:42 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone.
Nowhere near as much to report this week but that's just cause I've been focusing on the stuff I've already mentioned to you. HWM videos on the finale, Top 5 worst TV shows, Class, etc. That and I finished and sent off that story for the Doctor Who charity anthology which I was really happy with, so this time I'm gonna get my crystal ball out and talk about things I'm looking at doing beyond September.
On the He Who Moans front, I will endeavour to get Doom Coalition 4 done ...

2017-08-29 11:20:54 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone
My story got accepted! Contracts haven't happened yet so I'm not gonna give ya all the details yet but its a short story anthology about issues raised in the wake of Trump's election. Its a small publisher in the US so you're not gonna be seeing it in UK bookstores or anything but its a paying gig with royalties and the first paid writing gig I've ever had! And its in print and given all aspiring writers dream of seeing their name in a book I'm over the fucking moon about it. You w...

2017-08-20 14:29:52 +0000 UTC View PostSo I'm back at video stuff after having successfully avoided it for a week. Refreshed, ready to go and get shit done. To prove that, here's the early access link to the Empress of Mars review (going up for everyone else later this evening, lemme know if there's any problems pretty please):

Took the week off from projects so I have nothing to report. I have seen Empress of Mars now and am gonna be working on it this week...s'about it.
So this week I thought I'd offer a free example of the sort of thing I intend to send people who do the lucky dip package on my patreon. Once a month, I will send you something from my archive of stuff I've made over the years. Even I don't know what's in there so what I send you can be totally random.

2017-07-29 16:01:11 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone.
Busy week but I've managed to get a fair bit of stuff done. Finally got that Dead Like Me video finished. I also wrote and threw together a 5000 subscriber celebratory video. I've unlisted it if you wanna go have a look:

2017-07-16 14:50:14 +0000 UTC View PostOkay, let's start out with video progress:
I've recorded and mostly edited the audio for the Rick and Morty video, I've just to go through it and rerecord any bits with microphone fuzz. Its probably going to end up at about 18-20 minutes like my Bojack Horseman video. Am planning on doing the drawings tonight, aiming to have it finished by the end of the weekend, but its a lot more work than my HWM videos so I'm not gonna put a guarantee on it. If I get it done by then, I'll post an early acce...

2017-07-09 13:46:51 +0000 UTC View PostKay so I've written, recorded, drawn pictures for and found a copy of the episode for Extremis review. I'll probably end up finishing it on Saturday and posting an early access link here for you guys again like last week.
Given the last three videos I've made have been He Who Moans (that TV dissection was mostly done before this) I've decided that I am going to make the Rick and Morty video my first one after Extremis. I know people complain about the slow rate of this series, but I like to ha...

2017-07-01 20:25:48 +0000 UTC View PostKay, been a bit of a mad week so I haven't managed to get as much done as I would've liked.
I was hoping to get the Oxygen review done for release on Friday but that may have been a bit ambitious of me. I've recorded it but I've only just started drawings. I've got this on camera bit that I need to record that requires some exterior footage. I hope I'll be able to get it done by the end of the weekend for release on Monday. I'll post a link to it on here whenever its finished.

2017-06-30 08:56:02 +0000 UTC View PostSo yeah: back from Paris. Great trip, saw a tonne of stuff, relaxed (which is usually impossible for me, I have trouble figuring out how to do that) and had a bit of a rethink about a few projects and started some others.
On the TV reviews front: I had said to myself that I wanted to at least talk about the new Twin Peaks, I was expecting to make a two part video discussing the first half and the second half respectively; but upon watching the opening couple of episodes of it: I find it just s...

Yeah I haven't managed to get much done this week so please forgive me on the shorter update blog, I've been busy, I've had a chest infection and allocating time for projects has been difficult (that and I've been compulsively refreshing the wikipedia page of opinion polls for the general election every six seconds).
But: I have managed to sort of...almost get Class#5 done. A few more hours on sound effects and music when I g...
