Next step on the channel!

Hey everyone, me again! Thank you for the lovely reception on the Skip and Loafer video as well as the birthday wishes - appreciate them all ☺️

So, I've got two things I wanted to talk about:

Number One - My next video!


So, people who are in the Discord, follow me on Twitter or watched along with my livestream last night (which I'll be posting this upcoming week incase anyone missed it and wanted to watch), will know my next video has been changed from the Chainsaw Man video, to a video on the film Everything, Everywhere All at Once - hence the thumbnail.

My biggest reasoning behind the change is burnout worry. Having spent months editing both Heartstopper and the Skip and Loafer videos that are very heavily edited and take extensive hours to prep - I was feeling a little worn out during the last week of editing. The idea of moving straight into manga editing CSM was a little daunting, if not tiring.

I want to put my all into the CSM video, as I do with everything. But for that, I need to make a video a little less... Heavy? And EEAAO is just the type of break I need, whilst still being a film I am so passionate about and am super pumped to do a video on!!

I will do the Chainsaw Man video after EEAAO, which funnily enough, will make it fall more within the time of which the Chainsaw Man anime will come out, so even better timing!

Number two - Sponsors in videos


This is a relatively new thing for me. I've had people email with sponsorship requests the last 5 months, but they either:


Sponsors are a picky one. And I am very picky about what sponsors I'd allow on my videos even moreso.

But when a certain opportunity arises, like a potential I have right now with a company, there may be times (not all the time, don't worry) where a sponsor will pop up in my videos.

All the money from sponsors will go directly to the channel. At the moment I'm looking to upgrade my PC parts which will inevitably make editing and rendering an easier, quicker and smoother process. Which will be amazing for those heavily edited videos that my PC struggles through at the moment.

If I have the opportunity to make the same video but without the sponsor available to you guys on Patreon, I will 100% do that too. As... No one really likes to sit through a sponsor, let's be honest πŸ˜‚

As I said, this isn't a thing that will now automatically be in every new future video. I'm super picky with sponsors and it will no doubt be a rarer thing. But wanted to give a heads up. Also!!!!! I want to integrate the sponsor into my videos creatively and cleverly, which sounds like the perfect challenge 🀭

Conclusion


Anyways, thank you for reading all that block of text. As usual, if you have any comments or questions you can feel free to ask away. But until the next time I talk to you guys, I hope you're doing well and keeping hydrated.

Couldn't agree more, it's a really special movie, and I'm so happy to see the massively successful word of mouth it's achieved. Just rewatching the film in preparation has got me so excited to start working on it! I'll always do my best to pick sponsors I think are suitable and right, not just for my channel, but on you guys too. So thank you, I appreciate your understanding ☺️☺️

Swiss Army Man was wild and fun and surprisingly emotional, but EEAAO was all of that and more somehow. EEAAO is one of the best movies I've seen in many years, super excited to see you cover it! Hope it's fun and an overall less taxing video to make :) I know sponsorships can be a touchy/tricky subject but I'm glad to hear you are able to find something fitting! The videos are top notch and seem pretty darn expensive to make so having a bit more financial help sounds great. Good luck!
