Early Access - MvM4: Episode 7!

I'm just going to put this here without any preamble. I hope you enjoy and thank you for making this possible!

BTS - Voicing Hero TJ & Dark TJ

In this behind-the-scenes video, I demonstrate my process for recording Hero TJ & Dark TJ’s lines for Mii V Mii: Infinite. In past seasons, I didn’t script the episodes because it took too long, so I just jumped straight into recording, but that does make audio editing take longer. So far, this season has been a mix. I haven’t settled on exactly where I prefer to spend my time (writing or editing), but right now I’m exploring which one takes less time. This is the actually recordi...

Early Access - MvM4: Episode 6!

I'm pleased to report the turn around time on this episode fell quite nicely into acceptable parameters for me to be comfortable launching the show soon. Obviously if an episode has special or unique considerations it might take me a bit longer, but if the lion's share of episodes take approximately this long to produce, I'm ambition about my tentative launch date of October 1st (obviously nothing is official yet). As with all releases so far, I thank you for your discretion to protect the ge...

Early Access - MvM4: Episode 5!

I took some time to streamline my workflow. My footage, files, and fx were getting bloated and it was taking too long to retrieve what I needed, so I spent a little time behind the scenes organizing my digital workspace. I was able to get this together in around 8 hours (which is a big improvement), but I'm still going to need to cut that in half to be able to produce two episodes a week. I expect to learn a lot over the next 5 episodes before we go public. There are still some exciting surpr...

Monthly Q & A time!

Hi everybody! We're 4 episodes in! 6 more to go before we take this show public. I'm aiming for a premier date of Oct 1st. In the mean time, hit me with your questions and I'll do my best to get to them in the this month's Q&A video. Thanks for playing!

Early Access - MvM4: Episode 4!

This is a big one. I poured a lot into it. I wanted it to be special because it's the first episode of Mii V Mii to feature a follower of the show as a fighter. All said and done, I think this took in excess of 30 hours to finish. From a logistical standpoint, there are a lot of moving parts and production components that I needed to figure out how to implement. Now that I have one done, I'm hoping I can speed it up next time, but Patron Fight episodes have a lot of material that needs to ...

Look who joined the Hero Knights!

Hero TJ might be at a disadvantage with his smaller roster, but Fiona joins the battle to even the odds! Thank you, Fiona! See you on the battlefield! Coming Soon!

Someone is about to make their mVm debut!

This is a very exclusive tier, limited to only 3 people. Get ready! Someone's about to paint the town pink!

Early Access - MvM4: Episode 3!

I'm starting to find my flow. It's getting a little smoother. Thanks for helping make this show possible. As as my trusted inner circle, please help me keep things quiet on the public front. Let's do this!

mVm4 - Ep2 Update!

First of all, I want to say thanks to all of you. You are my early adopters. You got behind this show before I even released a single episode. Your trust and confidence means everything. I'm pretty far along on Ep2. Everything's recorded and I'm in the process of fitting the pieces together. I haven't developed a smooth workflow as of yet, but that's all part of the process. I'm working out the kinks, finding the pain points, and creating solutions that will allow me to maintain a rigorous pa...

Early Access - MvM4: Episode 2!

This episode introduces one of the show's new features- weapon switching. Thanks to my Patrons with voting power who helped decide how it would go down. I haven't fully ironed out the workflow yet, but you'll probably notice a few new elements that didn't make it into episode 1. It's fun to be able to share this adventure with my insiders. As I mentioned last time, you're WAY ahead of the public on this, so please help me keep a lid on it. Thanks a million!

Which lower frame do you prefer?

Yes, this is a repost. Sorry! In the first version, the pictures weren't big enough to see clearly.

Which lower frame do you prefer?

Work-in-progress...

You can probably tell from any of my shows, I create a lot of custom graphics, menus, and animations. Some of the time it's to add my own flavor or to serve the story, but other times it's to solve a problem. As I work on the next episodes of MvM4, I'm running into an issue with the bottom of the frame (see lower left image). I resolved this in Ep 1 by zooming in enough to crop out the REC bar, but that isn't a good-long term solution. Moving forward, I need to mask it out with an overlay. Th...

August Q & A

It's me providing the Qs to your As. Thanks for the questions.

Early Access - MvM4: Episode 1!

Huge thanks to all of you for helping to make this possible. Frankly, I wasn't sure I would ever return to Mii V Mii, but I'm grateful that I get to spend a little more time with these characters and I'm thrilled to be able to share it with you. Please bear in mind, you're experiencing this WAY before I release to the public. As my trusted inner circle, I humbly ask that you not post any spoilers to social media that might diminish the experience for anyone else. My deepest thanks! Now onto t...

MvM4 Update 8.7.24

We have picture lock! Next on the agenda? Music!

Progress Report

I was hoping I’d be a little farther along by the end of the weekend, but things are coming together nicely. More soon!

1st VO Session!

I just finished recording the first voiceovers of Hero TJ & Dark TJ for the first episode of MvM4. I’m really excited with how it turned out and I can’t wait to share this with you. I made a few choices that will require I spend a little more time editing, but I think it’s worth it.

Monthly Q&A time!

Please comment with your questions and I will answer as many as I can. In an effort to stay organized, I will only address questions on this post. Thanks!

Big MvM4 Update!

Super excited to share some behind-the-scenes info with my Patreon supporters! Thanks for joining the battle and going on this journey with me!

My friend made me this AI art

A friend of mine is really into generating AI art and he's got a real talent for it. He made this for me in honor of MvM4's episode 1 match-up. I think it turned out really cool! What do you think?

Who Will Win?

Welcome to the 1st Mii V Mii: Infinite Patreon poll! Who do you think will emerge victorious?

BTS: Ready for battle (whatever form it takes)!

Behind-the-Scenes: With all my treasured amiibo figures nestled halfway across the world in America, creating another season of Mii V Mii seemed impossible, but during my US visit last summer, I backed up all my amiibo data and converted the collection into a SSBU card series that I could bring back to Taiwan and put to work in MvM: Infinite!
