Don't let your GF draft you into more dishes...
And I'd recommend you quickly become the age 26 before the government drafts you into more conflicts...
Salutes to you soldiers; see you tomorrow at the premiere! (earlier than usual!)
Love & Respect, Value Select
Well?
Video game knowledge coming in clutch yet again; making me want to play all the Resident Evils once more.
Just gotta get the job first.

One of my favorites from the VS RESURRECTION, reborn (ironically) for a second shot at life on the channel.
The original was about 8 seconds too long to qualify as a short; I elegantly cut out the least essential parts for this version (making it snappier, in my estimation).
I then tuned up the vocals, wrote the lines, and ...

We ascend yet again.
This saucy single was a secret song on the sacred VS PERFECT ALBUM!
Originally written/composed by me, Rafa gave it new life with his signature brand of mirthy funk!
It's difficult to extend these shorts, as they're usually designed as one-off experiences... But this puppy was BEGGING for an extra verse; full release dropping on Spotify shortly!

A new classic from the VS Resurrection, brought to the green-screen and sonically charged by the fellow founding father of Mirth Pop!

With this RECENT BOOM in subscribers, seems only fitting to JOYOUSLY CELEBRATE with a GOLDEN REMASTER of the first video I ever made that brought folks to the channel!
6 years ago, Sseth Tzeentach had somehow shared the original with his community, and the VS journey officially began (I had been working in a vacuum up until that point!)
This video format went on to become the openin...

Horizontal Enjoyers unite! We bring in another crop of excellent verticals, featuring classics missing from the first compendium!
I'll leave the questions to you; if there's anything you want to know about the sketches within (pre-production, production, post) leave a comment below and I'd be happy to break it down in infinite detail!
Otherwise, bask in this bounty, and I'll see you...

Please note that this guide is in its preliminary phase and may appear rough around the edges, as I've only JUST learned this. Despite that fact, I thought it would be beneficial to share it with the Patron community so they can hit the ground crawling like me!

Easily my favorite video yet; all of it hits too hard, and TOO GOOD.
Dug out some saucy synths; really wanted childlike wonder for the chorus, and I found some virtual mallets that captured that perfect.
As for the visuals, these backgrounds are completely 3D! Got a new Blender strategy that is sure to remain a VS staple.
I wish the shorts would let me select the thumbnail; th...

Welcome Sweet Patrons of Arcane Secrets!
This comedic song was inspired by a spontaneous trip to a Canadian ice cream store back when I visited JREG and J.J. McCullough! We saw a captivating visage deep within that sweet dated magazine, and after riffing on who she might have been otherwise, J.J. mentioned he could see that as a VS song, and I had to agree.
So I snapped a picture, a...

A genuinely electric feeling, and further fuel for this holy crusade we've embarked upon.

Good Afternoon!
The latest and greatest, one of my favorites maybe of all time.
Big use of some new technology in CAPCUT (a free editing software for zoomers)
It's got a few interesting effects, notably the face enhancer (old or bold, which are only on the phone version) and the various anime power-ups (on both phone and desktop)
Nice to know if I'm having a rough face d...

Buck Rivers is BACK, and more country-er than ever!
"Hiding from Your Wife" playfully explores the desire of husbands and fathers for a bit of respite from family responsibilities.
It's a celebration of 'guy time' (in the genre of DUDES ROCK) that balances lighthearted escape with a loving acknowledgment of family.
This one is in a WEIRD POCKET for me; not entirely earne...

A little Barry White banger (Value Select style) for the fellas and felletes, based on another VS tweet!
I'm really enjoying stealing inspiration from myself, and deeply thank my twitter-split for being so prolific (and generous too!)
Tried to get a Chevy Chase look with the producer costume, and I think I nailed it.

Dear The Patreon Brotherhood,
This one is based off one of my successful tweets, continuing my adventure into D3 style literary adaptation content (It's like what they did with the Harry Potter books, but on a much MUCH smaller scale)
Smug/Corny behavior of any level really puts me in a murderous rage, so this video was made to prevent a felony.

A modern classic, reborn! (the message more true than ever)
Pure joy to create; and done easily with a great new tool I found called Captionator (Uses AI to detect your words, and translate them into ready-made captions!)
The trick is to speak the words (with solid diction) along to the song, and use THAT recording (no music) as the input audio.

Bask in the rejuvenating embrace of spring's healing rains!
The mystic morning dew becomes you, reflecting the invigorated spirit within.
Now, gather 'round for our clandestine CAPTAINS TABLE!
The harvest has yielded an array of MASTERWORKS:

Brand New Piano Select!
A ballad that speaks to the ages.
We may have been to late to crusade, and to early to cyborg...

The latest character debut in the SELECTIVERSE!
I've been wanting to do another country song for a while, and this came out wonderful. Catchy and poignant for anyone who's ever had a significant other caught in a dumb tiff.

See you at the premiere live tonight!

Is it too late?
Inspired by one of the comments left on the Doom Scrolling video, had to keep the spirit going... And the crooning bits come inspired thanks to a request from a brother who was hoping for another Sinatra cover.
Maybe soon! But till then, an original!
Here's the instrumental: 2023-03-04 01:20:09 +0000 UTC View Post
