Update Blog - 11/6/21 (Patreon)

Well, that turned out to be a fun Halloween. Admittedly, after that weekend, I did face a little jetlag where the week felt quiet and uneventful in comparison. However, that doesn't mean I didn't do much. I still went back to work and got a good amount of stuff done, including a new projects that is more fascinating the more it's coming to life. So, with that said, let me explain my week.

- Released the AniMat Watches of The Hunchback of Notre Dame II: Funny enough, I did consider to make another AniMat Watches for this month to fill up my schedule with an easy-to-make video and to get more advanced on my bigger projects so that they can be ready sooner. It wasn't until a few weeks after I finished the last ACR on Atlantis that I realized that I had my answer right there with what I drew form the Animation Hat. I've seen a lot of discussions and even talked about it with my patrons on how they say that it's easily one of the worst of the Disney direct-to-home media sequels. And, in many ways...it is. I'm glad that it did result in a good comeback for AW, but it still didn't change how painful it is to watch as a fan of the first Hunchback. It was nice to get back to making these videos again and maybe I should consider doing more in the future, but this is just a warm up for the big review that will be coming out next week.

- Writing and Recording the next History video: Throughout the week, the big project that I was working on was starting up a new History video for sometime at the end of the year. I wasn't sure on the topic to work on, so I made a poll on YouTube on Halloween for people to choose which one they would like to see first. More than half went to one choice, and it was the biggest choice in terms of the amount of research needed and info that is available found online. Welp, guess the people have spoken. As a result of my work from this week, I've so far done a large portion of the production. I've done all my research on the subject, wrote the script and even did the filming in front of the green screen. All that's left will be to edit the pieces all together and the video will be ready to be a nice surprise for the end of 2021 alongside the annual Top 5. This has been a more interesting journey than I expected, always a good sign for it to become a really informative and fascinating video ;)

And that was my post-Halloween week, all for one major upcoming project. Probably by next week, there could be more variety in terms of what I'll be working on, but for now, I got this History video to take care of and make that one a highlight of the holidays. Speaking of which. The pumpkins are out and already, I see people wanting to quickly get out the tree / menorah / etc. Brace yourself for that crazy season again. So, until next time...

See ya later, dudes!
