It's been quite an interesting week for me. Just as I was working on Part 15 and getting that ready, last week's Caillou video became a bit of a viral hit. I knew that it would get some attention, but I never expected that it would gather 100K views in less than a week! I know we're already a month and a half in, but I can finally start 2021 very strong and set the course for more great stuff to come ;) But first, let's talk about my week.
- Released the new AniMat Watches of Willy's Wonderland: This was an idea I came up with during the podcast, where I discovered this random crazy trailer and realized that this would be great for a new AniMat Watches, especially after the success of the AW of The Banana Splits Movie. I'm still amazed at myself that I convinced Screen Media to send me a screener to do this. I never thought it would work, but then when I got the email saying I have it and only a 48-hour window to actually use it, that's when I said to myself, "Welp, guess it's time to make a video!" After watching it for myself, I'd say that this movie is...okay. Not great, but it's a simple movie that achieved a simple premise. It's not as gory as The Banana Splits Movie and it can arguably be a complete textbook of horror movie clichés, but all it wants to do is show a mute Nicolas Cage beating up Five Nights at Freddy's-like animatronics and at least it managed to do that well. I'll even give it some points that it did well like some nice production value and they can have their creepy moments with Siren Sara. It's a dumb movie for sure, but at least it knows what it's doing and delivers on what it promises. No more, no less.
- Editing Part 15 of AL: Walt Disney Animation Studios +: I can guarantee you now that we'll be concluding Disney's animation library with a bang! While I am not currently finished yet and will need a few revisions and finishing touches, I can already tell that this is going to be a great part celebrating some of Disney's most recent features. I will admit that the most difficult part is regarding Frozen II, especially with getting the right clips needed for this like the Disney+ documentary. However, I'm sure the difficult hunt will be worth it to bring my ideas to life with this one. Even the animation that me and Logan came up will be another great memorable moment. The next part will be ready for next week and then we'll start the countdown for the grand finale.
- REMINDER FOR PATRONS $50+/MONTH: This month's Discord Chat will be happening on Sunday the 21th and at 2pm EST. Let me know if you're not available for either so I'll organize a quick chat.
And that's all I've got for this week. Great to see that I'm still able to have that magic and make some videos that the world wants to see ever after all these years! I still have a lot more to come, especially with the final parts of AL:WDAS+, so keep an eye out for more awesome content because it's only gonna get better from here, so until next time...
See ya later, dudes!
