UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2023 (Patreon)

So apologies I haven't updated in a little bit my cat died recently, while she was old she has been with me for almost 20 years and has always showed up in recordings and streams because of her loud nature.

The last couple weeks I have dedicated to animating a Ghibli food cut as an extension to the Ghibli food video, it took longer to do than expected as I picked quite a complicated cut in retrospect. My wrist did start buckling at one point but I made it through it’s more or less done and I'm just adjusting some of the finer details of it at this point.

The second half of the video will be about the process and may take up more runtime than I planned because of this, hopefully it wont take too long to get the b roll together for that.

I have hopefully been received a place for the press screening of the Boy and the Heron (how do you live). Miyazaki’s new movie and plan to do a video on that and the experience of seeing it along side future of Ghibli news attached. I’ll likely use no footage and draw stuff from memory or use sketches from the day as I still feel there's something worthwhile about going in blind.

For the Howl’s Moving Castle video, the majority of research for It is complete. The plan is to finish a bit more research in the roman album before writing up the full script and pressing forward.

After those I’ve been thinking of doing a FLCL video about Gainax and the team since two new series have been released, I will only be talking about the original though.

I’m not sure what will happen from then I do a couple smaller ideas I may put out that hopefully don't take that long to piece together.
