Update Blog - 2/26/22 (Patreon)

Have you ever felt like there's a weight that's been on your shoulders for so long that you end up getting use it it, but then it's suddenly off and you have this unfamiliar sense of freedom? That's honestly how I felt this week. I've had that review on hold for so long that I  got this sense of liberation that nothing is holding me back anymore and I can finally look into the future of my videos instead of what's behind that's unfinished. So here's what happened this week for me.

- Released my collab review of The King of Pigs: After several weeks of delays, AniMat's Classic Reviews has finally returned with one of my biggest reviews yet (I feel like I've said this several times before, but with this over 30 minutes in length, I'm allowed to say that). The reason why this took so long was honestly to get the materials from That Creepy Reading. Now, I'm NOT throwing him under the bus here. For the past few months, he went through a lot in his life and we are both to blame that some lack of communication was also responsible, but it's true that he can be a bit of a procrastinator at times, and it can be frustrating when the materials haven't arrived on schedule, especially when this was supposed to be released almost 2 months ago. However, when he gets to work, this man becomes epic and  the result turned out quite amazing with this review, especially when receiving his animations and voiceovers just before it's scheduled release on YouTube. With the addition of his input, he's able to add an extra layer to this review where it feels more personal with his experience with the film and sharing a bit of his own past in high school. Admittedly, my high school times wasn't so glamorous either. But now that it's released and the project is done, I feel free and my reviews can go back to their regular schedule! I just need to make up for lost times and get the other ACRs released soon...Oh! I almost forgot, the next review! It won't be as dark as King of Pigs, but it will get a whole lot worse with Spark: A Space Tail. The only thing I've heard about this is that it's not a really beloved film with good reasons. Well...guess it's good to be back on this to get rid of the nasty ones.

- Recording & Editing the next Top 10: In the meantime, as I was waiting on Creepy's materials for the King of Pigs review, I was also advancing on the next Top 10 video, where after I wrote the script last week and reevaluated the list so that after, I make the proper revisions, I did all the recording work and then I jumped into the editing to put it all together. I think I've warned you last time, but this will not be on a great epic scale like the Weirdest Animated Films. This will be more straightforward similar to the Twist Villains where it's just my voiceover and you just see the movie clips of what I'm talking about. However, that won't change that this one will be a fun video and there's still an enjoyable amount of creativity to be had with this. As you're reading this, I still got some editing to do on this and I had to put it on hold a few times to make room for finishing up the King of Pigs review. However, I'd say that I should almost be done and the video should be ready for next week. But in the shape that it is now, I can guarantee that we are all going to have some good dark fun soon!

And that's how I'll be capping off my February. I finally have no more videos to worry about to delay! I'm free!!! But, like I said before, there's a lot of catching up to do with AniMat's Classic Reviews, so we're gonna have an ACR marathon starting now and in the next few weeks! So, until next time...

See ya later, dudes!
