See You Next Week! (Blog) (Patreon)

Times are stressful right now but somehow, I'm still confident we'll be alright in the end!

----------------------------------------

Crash Content and New Videos) I was pessimistic last week, didn't think we were going to have videos in May BUT... here we are! Now so far, I've ONLY got the CTR Revisit Episode totally finished. The original plan for these was to have all 3 up within the same week, to give a cheeky stroke to the YouTube algorithm and help things get back on track. No certain that is going to happen anymore. However, I'm confident that both CTR and Crash Nitro Kart revisit episodes will be up the same week. CNK just needs a voice over and editing, thankfully, it's a little bit shorter than CTR (but not by much). Crash Tag Team Racing still needs to be written, filmed AND edited. So I imagine things will look like this:

• May 27th (Tues) - Crash Team Racing Revisit
• May 31st (Fri) - Crash Nitro Kart Revist
• June 4th (Tues) - Crash Tag Team Racing Revisit

In the event, I can have all of these done in time for next week, then it will be Monday, Wednesday and Friday of next week. We'll just have to wait and see how quickly I can whip together a CTTR Review. Considering I whipped up scripts and FILMED both CTR and CNK in the space of 2 days last week, it is possible. But again, we'll have to wait and see!

$2 Behind the Scenes Patrons! - Given that these 3 revisit episodes are incredibly basic, I will only have a single Making-of Blog Post to cover those. It will save from flooding the Patreon feed with too many posts. So that will be available when Crash Tag Team Racing is uploaded.

6-Parter Progress) Shit has been rough, let's be clear about that. Both days I was able to get out and film this past week, there was a technical catastrophe. The first day, I filmed for 3 hours and the audio was destroyed for the last 2 hours. SO THAT'S FUCKED. Re-shoots is something I simply don't have time to deal with right now, but that's how it goes. The following day, similar issue but it was caught in the act. Only lost about 40 minutes (which took 7 minutes to redo on the spot) but it still killed the mood for the day. Everything else was a bit jank but despite that, it was still a productive day. Could have been better though.

So I've done the math on where we're at with this project. As far as filming goes, it's about 30% of the way through which is something... but it could be better. The bad weather is starting to set in more, which is why I've managed to find time for this Crash content. CAN THE OTHER 70% of FILMING BE COMPLETED IN THE NEXT 4 WEEKS??? The entire year is riding on that right now. And I wish I had an answer.

Assuming I can start getting some of these individual episodes 100% shot, so I can start editing through June, it might just work out. These are just such complicated shoots with the props I'm working with and I'm yet to even start getting my other actors involved yet! It's the same every week, I know... but we'll just have to wait and see!

The 2 Hour Episode) The original plan was to have this up between the Crash revisit episodes and Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled. However, I get the feeling it might actually come AFTER it instead. Not entirely sure on that one. Production has really come to a halt since the script was finished, I'm only halfway through the revision process before I can film. Hopes are I can get back onto that during all these rainy days (after the revisit episodes of course)!

---------------------------------------- 

Closing Thoughts) I'm basically a fucking Woody doll at this point, spouting the same shit every time you pull the string in my back. But hey, at least the channel will have some content next week. That's all I really care about right now! So again, thank you all for the patience. Now that these Crash games have been replayed, I can start playing some Tony Hawk in the background... fucking hell, this shit never ends does it? xD

Anyway, until next week, I hope you have a great fucking day. Cheers!
