Patreon release #3 - The News Hasn't Happened YET #3

need more of those episodes ... thanks

Mohammad Dri

MORE!

The Vaine Man

Absolutely love it... disappointing to hear of your troubles scraping a few quid out of youtube when you provide so many people with strange joyful moments that they can get nowhere else.

nick winney

I need more of this. I need more. Of this. We must have more. We must. Have more. Of this. I will sell off France to the moon people.

Peter Persson

Always so good.

Jeff Munn

Its realistic ima be honest

Lola Robins

This is top notch - love Lemons in A Jar, awesome track.

Andrew Raff

I think this is good - it's almost accurate to the world we live in today.........! I liked the way you used a flat earth!

Nick Kind

Yeah I could do but that wasn't really the intention. It was more of a "I'm not ready to preview it properly yet" kind of teaser. I'm gonna make some trailers and shit but I don't want it to feel like it's really close otherwise any momentum would probably have died by the time it actually gets out. Social media posting takes more thought than you would think.

David Firth

I'm easy, it's up to you. Perhaps gather more feedback and make a decision - I just wanted to give you mine. Anyway, if I understand your message correctly, it does sound very strange to me that you need to publish something on YouTube in order to release it on Patreon. In fact, I thought the whole point of Patreon was to give exclusive premium content to patrons. Perhaps you can upload to YouTube and set the privacy level to "Unlisted" instead of "Public"...

Pizza Margherita

Patreon doesn't allow me to post videos without uploading them to youtube first. I just wanted to give some tiny peeks rather than actually reveal anything, to let you know that I'm working on this every day. I could post them on instagram but I thought it'd be a nice treat for supporters. I might post instagram stories

David Firth

I enjoy the updates. Whether they come here or on Instagram is okay with me -- they're exciting either way.

MF Cappiello

Ok I'll stop them. ]

David Firth

Well one needs to draw a line somewhere, I receive enough emails as it is. Also, I don't think it said anywhere what it was. Not a major aggravation, granted. Agree about the jittery video delivery, it's rubbish.

Pizza Margherita

I am quite surprised you are complaining about a new Salad Fingers teaser. I was hella annoyed by the amount of white loading circles that were coming up for each segment, but I don't think you can blame David Firth for that element. As Brian once said, "There's no pleasing some people..."

Philip Gallagher

Sorry but I must ask - what is the point of these latest "lens" things? a few seconds' poor quality clips... I'd rather not receive these updates, looking forward to more quality stuff you normally create.

Pizza Margherita

Hey David. I'm a maths professor and I used your video in a talk about postmodernism. The crowd was very receptive to your message. Cambridge Analytica used Facebook data to build psychological profiles of people receptive to postmodernism and they used it as a statistical indicator to target voters in the Brexit and 2016 US elections. Your video tied into that narrative perfectly. Cheers!

Thanks! Looking forward to it

John Potesta

Yes of course! $200 patrons get art every time. The reason you haven't heard anything is because the money gets charged at the end of the month and that is when I will be posting the art out. Expect an email soon with options.

David Firth

Are you planning a art release for this? Just curious if they were sent out already... great video. Thanks

John Potesta

Fantasticle! Down has never felt so UP!

NonBritGit

Thanks for the response. Very understandable. It is true that moderation is the key to such things. If you take your time I am sure you will get a better result too. At the end of the day, we would all be happier with a better result than something rushed. I hope there is a way at some point that with additional financial support you can get more hands on deck to help you bring these to fruition while keeping the quality high. You are a gifted artist and there is so much potential here. We all appreciate your work very much :)

Alex Kleinman

These things can't be rushed. I was putting in 12 hours a day on SF 11 hoping to get it finished in the next month or so but I had to take a rest and return to the news video. It really becomes an obsession that can be quite unhealthy. It's like doing smack or something. The rest of my life takes a backseat and if I do it straight through without a break, it really takes hold of me. When I'm in a project, I don't sit around wasting time. It is work-eat-sleep on repeat.

David Firth

Please finish Salad Fingers 11. Embarisingly, I check Patreon literally 3 times a day for any update on it! I can't take it anymore. I want a life again!

Alex Kleinman

hahaha this is awesome!

Dina Dreams

Was that you doing the Alex Jones voice?

Unanimous D

This is so good, i dont donate to many patreons, this is worth it every time.

Stephen Craven

actually looking back now i see you've always had a couple of real, non dave looking faces :)

James O'Reilly

Love it mate, watched it with my parents. your faces are sometimes getting too real, too well disguised

James O'Reilly

Extremely impressive encapsulation of our zeitgeist.

Cody

Tremendous! Say, did you know that there's enough poison in a GOLDFISH to kill a SLIGHTLY SMALLER GOLDFISH? That's an Animal Fact.

Rev Rrrouse

I think the tags on this post are pretty accurate

Aaron Parisi

Hmm I will investigate. I assumed it was more of snapchat/faceapp style interface but if it works for HD video then I'll give it a shot.

David Firth

Definitely the best one yet. Loved it.

Justin Erickson

Very nice... we need more of it :)

Dark Duke

So, so good. Thank you David that was the bestest one eva 👌

Robbie Cumming

...and not intended as a criticism of this work at all. I love it! :)

Pat Mächler

Have you considered using the FakeApp instead of video merge effects? I don't know your workflow well enough, so it's just a suggestion. The uncanny valley effect would be different I guess.

Pat Mächler

Honestly, I think u already know everything so there is nothing much to tell ya
