Content

TLDR: I have a new job = less time to create. I am changing perks so that I can still have time to post enough publicly. PLEASE let me know what perks you want to keep or see in future that are faster than a video! Also if i need to change my content style, what would you watch v not watch? (list below underlined)


I have some news! I got a new job!

This means my time to create content has been more than quartered and I will not have enough time to keep up with my current complicated style in the schedule of 4 animations, 2 live action ASMR videos, with 2 exclusive Patreon videos a month.

My stats tell me only a small percentage of you actually watch the exclusive content on patreon, many videos don't even have a single view from patrons. It leads me to believe it would be ok to cut down on exclusive content.

On Sundays I spend most the day with my family and relatives so....I have 4 days and 4 evenings to create content a month. Creating 2 videos for patreon as i do currently would take me 2-4 days alone. Leaving only 2-4 days to make public content.

I have tried to see which perks you guys actually enjoy and tried to see where in the tier system they should be offered or how I can cut back on the time spent editing while still delivering ASMR. My solution has been changing the exclusive videos to AUDIOS and not creating a specialty filmed BTS video. I can still continue all perks prior to the Roo tier easily. I can even offer new perks like exclusive instagram posts + letters to make up for the change as those wouldn't take as long to create.


Would Audios be something you would want to receive or am I better off not creating at all if it isn't a video?


Currently
Roos  - exclusive 20m video (rarely audio)
Dingoes - 20m BTS/outtakes/bloopers video - Maybe an audio ramble


Future Change
Roos - Exclusive 10-20m Audio, Letter/Drawing
Dingoes - Letter/Drawing, Blooper Reel, Exclusive 10-20m Audio


What do you want as a perk?
A 1 minute custom video saying thank you, your name and performing your favourite trigger?  
A monthly trigger video where I compile all your favourite triggers into one video instead of a roleplay?


What content do you want to see?
Only roleplays?
Better audios?
Soundscapes?
Trigger Assortments?

I need to know what you like and what you want to better serve you! ^.^


Content TIME: (days it takes to make in brackets)
(.5-2) VA/ Relaxing Audios
(.5 -1) Short Trigger Ramble - Animated
(2-5) Animated Roleplay
(1) Trigger Ramble, or no Talking Trigger Video
(1-2) Unscripted, No Green Screen, Hospitality Roleplay
(2-5) Scripted Roleplay
(3-7) Scripted Roleplay with some Special Effects

Realistic Monthly Deliverable: *****
1 - 4 animations (possibly just simple trigger rambles, maybe 1 roleplay)
1 full length live action asmr video with minimal FX
1 simple trigger/ramble ASMR video
1 audio video
1 exclusive patreon audio - IF I have time, a video instead
Letters to roos and dingoes
1 exclusive patreon blooper reel

***** I personally think I will be doing my channel and viewers a disservice to go back to my old format of being more audible than visual. I don't think my sound is anything special. But i feel squashed between a rock and a hard place. I could take all month to work on 1 epic creation...that would probably be the best time well spent...but I don't know what to do in this situation

Script writing, 3d modeling, simple and short animation filming and editing, and prop making can happen through the week after work (due to being on call after hours...), but filming really does need to be done uninterrupted on the weekends (HOPING it stays quiet).

I'll have to reel back the SFX due to the tedious manual precision in editing frame by frame. HOWEVER a video lacking SFX isn't WORSE or less effective at ASMR.

This is a little upsetting for me as I do find ASMR to be my passion - focusing in immersion of the story, but this is life, haha.

What would you be happy with? Losing a few perks for more long-form public fancy content, or ?? If you want a change in perk, ones you would actually like and look forward to that I have not done yet, let me know!

I'm happy to continue along the hand written notes and even could do a short 15 second instagram filter video to you each month on a certain tier. They are quick enough to make that I can upkeep with it.

LMK if these are perks you would want!


This post is public so I hear from people who are not patrons but might consider becoming one in future :)

I think it's important that you're doing what you like without having too much stress. So don't worry (* ̄▽ ̄*)b

I'm always stressed, hehehehe. I just wanna do a good job and help people, that makes this so fulfilling to me! :) I need a lot of thought about this, i feel lost and at a loss in a way to have my time split so much....

Hey first off, congrats on the job!!! I'll certainly miss having as frequent of new content from you, but I'm happy for you and hope it's good for you. It often takes me a while to get to all the patreon stuff, but I like seeing the discussions and experimental stuff. I don't feel entitled to exclusive access to anything you want to put out there, so don't feel like you need to make whole projects of exclusive content. I really just hope you have fun with it, get to make cool ASMR art, and share it with everyone!

Thank you so much!! I'll miss creating, too!! Me too me too! I am hoping of course i will have time to make a little something, but, it is what it is! :) As work hours ebb and flow i might be able to still create some sneaky things for you all!
