It’s been awhile since the last post so here’s the TLDR:
Video’s Thesis: Dissecting the narratives around talent and our perception of what it means to be ‘great’.
A bunch of technical and real life stuff got in the way that delayed this much longer than it should’ve.
I’ll be pausing the Patreon for this month (and for the foreseea...

If you don’t have time to read all this here’s the TLDR.
The Smiling Friends video has been replaced with Ping Pong the Animation, for similar reasons to why I replaced my Detroit Manga video turning into a Blade Runner video.
The video will be over an hour long; hoping to get it out by the end of December

TLDR:
Working on a new Smiling Friends video essay that’s quite different to my first Smiling Friends video.
I feel like I’ve stagnated as a creative, and want to refocus my efforts into doing other projects that aren’t video essays, since scope creep has gotten too much for m...

Hello! Thanks for waiting, it’s been a while since I’ve made a big update like this - so there’s a lot to share!!
TLDR
I've been feeling indecisive about my work, but that's been remedied with wanting to pursue videos that involve me praising stories I enjoy.

As stated before, this upcoming before will be on The Last of Us Part II! It won't be a video absolutely hating it or loving - it'll be a little bit more even handed but still skewing on the critiquing it.

Hello!
Got some news.
Despite the personal artistic satisfaction of making and releasing the latest video, the HBO The Last of Us video ended up performing worse that expected. In fact it's the worst performing video essay I've made out of the last 10 I've released thus far by 50%.
To be candid, this got me a little existential about this channel's future a...

Hey! Thanks for the support folks once more!
Hope to keep this update brief since I don’t have much to say beyond “the video is being worked on!”
I’ve got some company over this month and commission work outside of Patreon came my way, so progress will be a little slower than usual. At the latest, I’m hoping to get this video out by end of June for the sak...

The title will be along the lines of 'HBO's The Last of Us Complaints are Trash', and I'll essentially arguing against these 3 points I've seen to some extent.

I’m about 24 hours I’ll be back in Australia, which means I’ll be able to start working!! Starting with recording that Joe Pera script, which will probably be around 10-15minutes long.
