This was a fun week! Got some work done and had a great time celebrating Halloween, now I can take a moment to rela... Wait, what? What do you mean I gotta review a new animated film? What the fridge is Arctic Dogs?
- Released Part 2 of AL: Walt Disney Animation Studios +: Some may say that it was quick of me to release the next part right after the first one, but I do have plenty of parts to get into if I want to tell the complete history up to today, so might as well start off with giving you a few parts first before we jump onto the next decade and also get into the upcoming Top lists of the best and worst of 2019 AND the decade! Anyways, back onto Part 2, this will be a very rare part where I have to skip a few movies, mainly the package films. I had to for 1. To keep the story of the studios history flow smoothly and 2. There's very little "behind the scenes" trivia to discuss about them, so I can only talk about the essentials like the South America Goodwill Tour and keeping the company afloat with stuff like Make Mine Music and Melody Time. I hope no one is too bothered by the sacrifices, but it is fitting that I managed to create a whole part dedicated to the 1940 decade at Disney (except for the year 1940). It's probably too early to say this, but so far, my favourite piece of animation by Logan for this is the brawl scene of Walt fighting against all the strikers. I only asked for a few seconds to match the voiceover, but he went up and beyond and I couldn't be more happy to have him on board for this project. Don't worry about what's coming up, I won't be skipping the next big movies ;)
- Recording & Editing AL: Walt Disney Animation Studios +: As I've released the 2nd part, I'm already at work bringing the next one to life. Despite the limited time that I had this week like a Halloween party and working right now on a new review, I am doing well in taking shape for the elements on this new part like doing all the necessary filming and recording and even getting at a good start in the editing. Hopefully, if things can go according to plan, I should finish working on this part by next week and have the editing be done with. But I will say that this part is looking good so far to cover some of the more notable Disney classics and they each got some fascinating history on them.
- Currently working on my Review of Arctic Dogs: To be honest, I didn't really thought much of it because I was expecting this to be one of those small limited releases that come and go quickly...this is not the case. As much as I want to continue editing AL:WDAS+, I need to make some last-minute adjustments to my schedule so I can include talking about this movie. I'll say right now that I don't necessarily have high hopes on this one and the lack of marketing and reviews beforehand is a serious concern, but I know I gotta do my job before I get too many comments from Veruca Salt-minded people asking "Where's your Arctic Dogs review?" Let's just hope it has a good reason for me to give this my full attention.
- Help Me Update the $25/Month Pledge: By the way, I have been thinking about doing some changes for my Patreon recently, but I'm just taking things one step at a time. I've been thinking about the $25/month pledge and curious onto your thoughts if I should change the reward for it or keep the art commissions. I've made a poll for you to choose among 4 different rewards you could get for those who pledge $25 or higher. If you wanna help me out on this or want to suggest other ideas for rewards, then check the poll here and help me out. I'll be more than happy to hear what you think!
So that's currently been what's up on my end. One good thing to note from all this is regardless of the outcome of that movie, I still got my Halloween candy to keep me company :3 So until next time...
See ya later, dudes!
