This is for my upcoming video on how to make a simple dance animation.
It has the rigged character and everything else you see in the thumbnail.
I'm still figuring out what video I'd like to do next. I'm thinking of making an eye rigging video, more character animation, and one on a screen shader.
This is the project file for my upcoming rigging video, which is coming out next Tuesday at 12pm EST. You'll notice it is pretty similar to the other skeleton character file, but I made the rig a little better.

So this is a TV screen shader I've been working on for quite a while. I still need to clean it up to make it easy to use, but feel free to play around with it.
I've had the tutorial almost ready to record for a few months, but I keep putting other ideas ahead of it.
Let me know if you like this style of sharing files that are still being worked on.
This is the last spooky character I had planned for October. If anyone has video requests for the next month, let me know!
I would've put more time into this character and the video, but I tried to get it done more quickly for the end of October and my allergies were also really bad, so hopefully the quality shift isn't too noticeable.

This character is one I'd like to revisit at some point to give it the time it deserves. It took quite a bit of experimenting to get the skirt working properly.
If anyone plans on animating this, I recommend hiding the skirt until the end, and then baking the simulation before rendering.
I hope you all like the video when it comes out!
Also, I plan on doing one more character, hopeful...
We're nearing the end of my first month of Patreon, so it's time to hold up my end of the deal by donating to an environmental organization.
This month I donated $50 to the NRDC (the natural resources defense council).
Thanks to everyone's help here and on YouTube, I feel like I can finally do this sustainably. I plan on doing this every month if I can, and the more money I make here, ...

This is the file I used for my ghost modeling video that will be public tomorrow.
It has a simple rig and animation that I used for the video intro, I hope you all like it.
I'll have some new videos coming out soon, I'm trying to stick to 1 video per week.
Here is a link to the tutorial (it'll be private until tomorrow at noon EDT):

I was originally planning on making the witch character for my next video, but I am running into some rigging and weight painting problems, and I don't think I'll be able to release it as soon as I'd like. Yes, I run into problems all the time. My videos are the end result of dealing with problems and experimenting until I finally get it right.
SO, I'm pivoting to a ghost video that will ...

This skelly from the video is rigged and has a few dancing animations already made!
This is the file I used in my second video about making characters with the skin modifier.
I got so many comments about Among Us in the first video, I felt compelled to include some "easter eggs", so those models are included too.
The rigged Among Us character has a few silly animations already.
Enjoy!
I'm about to add patrons to the credits of my next video. If you would like your name to be displayed differently, or excluded, let me know!
Thanks for your support!
So, right now I'm working on remaking my "Easy Characters with the Skin Modifier" video, to answer questions people had in the comments. It's been almost a year since I made the first one, and to my surprise, it is my most popular video by far. Honestly, it's the reason my YouTube channel grew as much as it did. I'm planning on releasing it on Tuesday, as long as it is finished in time.

As you can probably see, I already shared a bunch of files, so there is stuff to download, but I want to know more about what you all are looking for here. Let me know if you have any suggestions for things to offer.
I'd love to do more community activities, and I have a few ideas, but I'm still figuring out how ...

It's not a complex scene but I like how it looks! Eventually this will the the thumbnail for the Lil Snack Tier, but I'm still working on the other ones.

I made this one in 2.93 with geometry nodes, so hopefully it doesn't break with future versions. I'd share the file from the thumbnail image, but I paid for that material and am legally not allowed to share it, but it uses the exact same method as in this file.

What you see is what you get! Just be careful, the boolean modifier might crash Blender if you move it around without disabling it.

This one is special to me. It's the same concept as my other animations using the commotion addon, but I liked the outcome of this one the most.

This is the file from the thumbnail Commotion video about offsetting keyframes. The file still works without the addon, since all it does is move the keyframes around.
