Flying Buttress

Pictures from my Jolly-bobs

Hey peeps,

I got back Sunday evening (and it's absolutely p-ing it down with rain here).  Good old, sunny England!  I've already written two scripts so that's all going well.  Probably write some more today and then start making them into videos.

But, as requested, here's the whole bunch of photos i took whilst I was away.  Like i said... I'm not much of a photo-...

Photos and Stuff

So I took a whole bunch of photos today. Of completely random things cos i have no idea what people wanna see. But I will have to post them all when I get back cos it's not letting me do it via the phone app.

To be fair... I'm in a region in the North called Pas de Calais and it's very rural so it's mostly fields and countryside. But the great thing about this part of France is (imo)...<...

I've arrived!

Hey peeps.

So I'm now at the place I'll be staying for my vacation. It's alright, I suppose. lol.

I'll take more photos over the next few days but I figured I'd post this pic for now. Just to show off.

I'll post another update soon.

See ya!

Update before the break...

Hey peeps.  

Sorry it's just a text post this week.  I've literally only just finished tomorrows video (but i've still got to render it and stuff).

So the breaks gonna be two weeks.  And i didn't realise how well that was timed considering Borderlands 3 comes out tomorrow.  Plus i'll be in France next week relaxing and shiz.  But i will be working a little b...

Better Late Than Never! - Early Access

Howdy doody...

Spent pretty much all of today trying to get this one done.   I very nearly posted something earlier saying... "I don't think I'm gonna be able to get an Early Access post up today"  and then I told myself to just shut up and get on with it.  lol.

However!  I think... just to take a bit of pressure off myself... I'm gonna have to put the Early...

Early Access - Next Video

Hello!  

I was a bit worried that I was gonna have to skip another Early Access post but I bloody managed it!  

There's no official model for Galakrond but I knew that going into this story.  So I've had to settle for using Galakras' model instead.  But I made him blue-ish to match the cover art of the book.  

I make a joke of it in the video but i kin...

Next Video - Early(ish) Access

Hey all,

I just finished tomorrows video so here it is (for anyone that wants to watch it early).  

I know I said last Thursday I wouldn't be able to do Early Access for this one.  I thought I was gonna be working on it right down to the wire but then I woke up ridiculously early this morning.  

But I'm gonna say I definitely can't do Early Access for Friday's c...

Early Access - Dawn of the Aspects (Part Seven)

Hi peeps,

Here's tomorrows video for you to watch early.

The wedding on Tuesday was lovely.  I didn't realise until afterwards that apparently Pewdiepie also got married on Tuesday.  So... just in case anyone thinks I was the best man at Pewdiepie's wedding... I definitely was not.

But it was a really nice day.  Except for the wedding photographer.  I appre...

Chapter One (Part Two) - Early Access

Alright Mates!

Here's Tuesdays vid for you.    It's mainly just Kalec moping around but it does advance the story somewhat.

I'm trying to get as much done of Fridays vid as possible before I bugger off for this wedding tomorrow.  I won't be back til Wednesday but worst case scenario... it'll be available to you lovely peeps on here by Thursday (so still technical...

Early Access - Part Five

Hey peeps,  

Here's Fridays video for you to watch early.  I would have put it up earlier today but I seem to have caught some bug and I'm actually a bit sick.  

Hopefully its just one of them 24 hour things or something.

Enjoy!

Early Access - Dawn of the Aspects (Pt.4)

Hello everybody peeps.

Here's Tuesday's video - Tis the final part of the Prologue.  

Funnily enough, Chapter One only takes two videos to get through.  But I think that's cos the Prologue was originally a short story called Charge of the Aspects by Matt Burns.  And the rest of the book was originally released as Five e-books.   

To be honest... I didn...

Early Access(ish) - Next Video

Hey peeps,

So here's the plan...

I'm currently trying to organise my time effectively in order to get multiple videos prepared.  That way... I can get back to uploading twice a week fairly comfortably.  

So here is this Friday's video... basically finished... except for the speech text.   

I've already written several scripts so tomorrow... I'm gonna ...

Technical Problems

Hello

Firstly... I'm starting to think people dont like fart jokes as much as I like fart jokes.

Secondly... went to record the audio for the next video and I've discovered my mic is completely buggered. Luckily... tis my Birthday tomorrow so I might get a nice shiny coin from a grandparent or something and be able to get a new mic early next week.

I figured I'd give you al...

Early Access - Dawn of the Aspects Part Two

Hello everybody peeps,

Here's Fridays video; up nice and early for you lovely buggers.

Now featuring snazzy new speech bubbles!  I feel like they fit the aesthetic better... plus I can move the spikey bit around so it's clearer who's talking (which will be important in these novel vids, me thinks).

I think people will like this one even more than Part One.  More humo...

I discovered a thing...

Hey peeps...

I know you'd probably be happy to just wait until i upload the full video but I figured out a way to export the audio so it also includes the music and stuff too.  So that's fun.  It's only taken me like... 2 years to realise that.

If you do listen to this... just keep in mind the fart sound effects will make sense.  I'm trying to make sure it's clear tha...

Dawn of the Aspects (Prologue Part 1)

Hey peeps.

So here's part one... 

I feel like it's gonna be a bit of trial and error with these.  It's definitely not the funniest video I've ever made.  And there's a couple of bits that are probably gonna make people full on cringe.  (I went a bit artsy... i apologise).  Plus my voice acting is terrible.

Anywho... let me know what you think!  Do...

Next video...

Hey peeps. Hope you had a good weekend!

Quick update: I'm currently working on Part One of the new Dawn of the Aspects series at a leisurely pace. My intention is to upload it on Friday and then try and establish a new schedule for the channel.

And my other intention is to have it finished early enough so that you guys can watch it first. Maybe Wednesday. but don't hold me to th...

There's no time!

Hey peeps.

Just a heads up... theres absolutely no chance I'm gonna get the video finished in time to give you proper early access before tomorrow.

I've been trying to do that recently but this video, man... oof.

I think I subconsciously knew this would happen which is why I did the script and stuff instead.

But we're nearly there. Once I have a handle on how long it...

Audio is here...

Hey!

Audio is now recorded for the rest of the Worgen vid, which you can listen to nice and early right here (if you want).  If you read the script yesterday, you may notice some things have been changed.  That's just how I do it.  Sometimes I write things and then say them out loud and realise they're stupid.

I'm gonna be pretty much editing all day Tomorrow and Thur...

Here's a script...

Hey peeps.

Entirely up to you if you wanna read this.  It's pretty long.  I just figured I'd attach the script for Part Two of the Worgen video cos I can't record the voice-over til tomorrow.   The formatting might be really weird cos I write them in Notepad for some strange unknown reason.  

Needless to say... the video itself will probably not be ready til...

Starting Zones - Worgen (Part One) - Early Access

Hey peeps,

Finished nice and early again so here's tomorrows video.  

I'm off out to some mini food festival thing.  Basically just a bunch of street food vendors and stuff.  Should be fun.  

Happy July 4th to those of you that are American.  And Happy Thursday to everyone else!

See ya!

Worgen Starting Zone Audio - Part One

Alright Mates!  How's it going?

So yesterday, I decided to split the Worgen video into two parts.  Mainly because I realised as I started writing the opening 'Little bit of history' section - there's a lot to get through.  You've got the history of Gilneas as a nation as well as the origins of the Worgen curse.  So... I figured I'd try and be smart about it and split i...

Early Access - Brain Farts

Hello again.  I'm getting a bit stalkery these days, innit.

Finished the video.  I've uploaded it to Google Drive but it's taking forever to process.  You can download the video from the link though, I think?  It's not very Early Access-ish if you can't even bloody watch it.    

I reckon there's a way for me to upload it either private...

Tomorrow's Talky, Rambley, Audio (Early Access)

Hello.

So... this probably isn't very exciting but I just recorded the audio for tomorrows video.

I used to do these rambley vlog type things back before I committed to being a WoW channel.  On the one hand, I liked making them cos they felt more honest and genuine than heavily edited stuff.  But on the other hand... they feel kinda lazy.    

It's alwa...

Chronicle "Finale" - Early Access

What the bloody hell's going on here?!

So I have been in an editing trance since about 8 o'clock this morning and as a result... managed to finish the video ridiculously early.  I tried to incorporate every bit of editing skill i've learned over the past two years for this one.  Seemed only fitting for a finale of sorts.

I'm going to celebrate this evening, I think.  ...

The End is Nigh!

Hey peeps

Here's the audio for the final Chronicle Volume 3 video (next Tuesday's).  I've recorded it today cos I'll be busy tomorrow.   Eating loads of jerk chicken in a Jamaican Restaurant.  

I was worried it was gonna end up being a bit short as there was only like... a page left of Volume 3 so I went into a bit more detail about each phase of the Dragon Soul ...

Early Access - Tomorrow's Video (Finished)

Hey!

So... because I'm out all day tomorrow, I have managed to finish the video a lot earlier than usual.  So here it is!  A whole 13 hours early for you!  

In an ideal world, I'd: 

a) Be able to do this for you guys all the time  

b) Be able to get them to you even earlier

But one potential thing that is on the horizon is... MadAgs / Weema...

Early Access - Friday's Audio

Alright mates!

Here's the commentary for Friday's video.  

It's kinda amusing how much detail Chronicle went into in Volumes 1 and 2 compared to these final chapters of Volume 3.  Makes me think Metzen, Burns and Brooks had just about had enough at this point and wanted to get it finished,  Seems to be glossing over quite a few things.  

It's alright though...

Tuesdays Audio

Happy Sunday!

Here's the audio for the next vid.  I had fun with this one.  I have fun with all of them but... especially this one.  

Scarily close to the end of Volume 3 now.    It's weird to think I've managed to semi-animate the whole bloody lot.  Even if it has taken me like... 2 years or something.  

Anywho... See ya!

Would you like some actual Early Access?

Hello everybody peeps...

So I definitely can't do this regularly but here's tomorrow's video... early... just for you.

Because I love you.  Not in a weird way. Just... you're good eggs.

Thanks!
