Character Animation 動き Sakuga MAD

Hi everyone, I’ve just uploaded the first video in a long time, a MAD about Character Animation. I finished it about a month ago but waited until now to post it because I was waiting for a copyright strike to expire. Sorry for the very long time inbetween videos. Breaks are normal for me but this is probably the biggest one I’ve taken.

If you’ve been a Patron for a while, you might remember that I was working on a big documentary style video similar to the Richard Williams one. Unfortunately, that plan and others I had fell by the wayside. I’ve done a lot of thinking over the last few years as I’ve spent more and more time on big projects. As I move on to focus on other stuff in my life, big projects like that take up more and more time that I’m less enthusiastic about spending on them. The large videos were going to take a ridiculous amount of time (and possibly money) for something I wasn’t sure I was even going to be happy with. And for a channel that I’m unable to monetise. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m going to stop working on them but keep the channel going more casually. I'll work on (most likely shorter) videos when I feel the drive to. So, for the average viewer nothing’s really changed, hah. I'll still be uploading sporadically. But you can expect more videos in future.

There’s been changes to the rewards on Patreon. There wasn’t much interest in articles about my editing process so I’m not going to make them. Feel free to send me messages in Patreon DMs if you have any questions about it or anything else though. Now on Patreon you can get Patreon exclusive merch, your name in the credits of each video and access to a playlist of my videos on Vimeo so you have a way to view and download in HQ videos that have been taken down. I may post other things in future, but for now that’s what you’ll get. My Patreon is mainly a tip jar for people who like what I do and want to support me. Oh yeah, and I made a new website merch store you can see at www.hobbessakuga.com

Thank all of you so much for supporting me, even when I wasn’t putting anything out. It means a lot to know that people care about what I make that much. If anyone’s upset about me not putting out content and wants a refund for wnat you’ve paid on Patreon let me know and I’ll do my best to refund you (from what I can tell I can refund the last 3 months worth of support).

In short, thank you for your support. Hope you enjoyed the new video and keep watching this space because I think there’ll be more in future.
