  • I really like the intro animation, and your presentation style is very professional. Just the right length for a video that is essentially just "Hey, look at this," too. I like it. Only criticism: any way to eliminate/reduce the shadows you cast behind you?

    Thanks! I took a free After Effects sequence and modified it and its components to make it work right. The music is from one of Sail's songs. As for the lighting; Flood lights mounted on the ceiling over my head pointing behind me. I'll buy them after Anime LA next weekend when I know I can safely spend money.

  • Slide! Juggle! Both!

  • The last episode of my Volt White 2 challenge is finally done! I think it's one of the best videos I've made to date. Tons of editing done on this one. A slightly less intensive version of this style will likely continue into my next series:



  • It's Scal-Pal! Everyone's favorite scalpel.
    Gets a little GRAPHIC in one part so, careful of that.
  • x-post with Netrunner thread

  • Everytime Chevy Chase makes a Generalissimo Francisco Franco joke. Embedding has been disabled by NBC, so you'll have to click through.
  • Started up a new Pokemon series today, and compared with my previous series, I'm steppin' up the game in terms of pacing, commentating, and editing, among other things. Also: tons of pop culture references to hunt for and identify in this game. Should be a lot of fun!



  • x-post Netrunner

  • There's one thing I'm learning very quickly in the production and promotion of this Dicelocke series. I knew the Woo Game worked. I didn't know the Woo Game worked this well.



    This video has barely been out 24 hours and already has a ton of comments + one of the highest like counts I've seen on a Pokemon video since my first Orderlocke episodes (and those vids have had a year-and-a-half to build up likes). I'm still making sure the backbone of these things is quality commentary and visuals, and it looks like people appreciate that too -- but daaaaaymn people really love them some pop culture references.
  • Quick dirty and dumb.

    From my blog:


    It's that time of year again! You know, quarter of the way through 2014, so it's time to share the final results of last year's Top 40 Jugglers poll (as voted by you!).

    For the 2013 chart I set myself a very difficult challenge: to release one video per juggler, with me copying a trick, sequence, or section of a live show, taken from a juggling video that was released in 2013.

    As I finished them, I released each video on YouTube (and post them to Facebook) and let fellow jugglers guess who I was imitating.

    Could I make it through?

    Yes. Click here to see each video in turn as a YouTube playlist.

    I had a lot of fun making the videos, but it was a lot of work. Besides the juggling, I had to copy some mannerisms of the juggler, and often getting those right was sometimes harder than the juggling tricks themselves. Not that the juggling wasn’t fucking hard at points too.

    As I went I made a side-by-side comparison edit with my impersonation/tribute/copy shown beside the original juggling video clip. After releasing all the individual clips I recorded a commentary track and released the full video. Here it is:

    Which is your favourite clip?

    Hardest tricks for me physically:
    * 8 club passing 8-up 2-stage 720 due to having limited time to get the trick, meaning Brook and I didn’t rest much between attempts.
    * 11 ball flash. I found so draining on my arms that I couldn’t manage other jugglers’ tricks.
    * Nathan Bigg-Peterson’s 5 club multiplex backcrosses. I still have a lump in my lip from hitting myself in the face with a club. Also I broke not one but two bulbs for my studio lights, and they’re not cheap to replace.
    * Alex Barron’s 6 ball siteswap 999333 with the second 3 behind the head. I’m just not used to throwing balls high like that after years of juggling in my 4.2 meter ceiling studio.
    * 8 club multiplex. It took three days and at that point I knew I wouldn’t be able to manage the 9 club version, as I could only practice the 8 club version at home. My hands got used to the grip by the end, but it was still very draining.

    Summary:

    • 3281 votes cast
    • Wes Peden won with 179 votes. Haavard Hvidsten and Tony Pezzo both got 148 votes, but due to the sorting formula, ties are broken by the juggler going up the chart the most, so Haavard got second place.
    • 17 votes needed to make it onto the chart.
    • Wes has now spent more years at number 1 than all the other number 1 jugglers combined (6 years for Wes, 5 years for all other number 1 jugglers).
    • Jason Garfield became the first former number 1 juggler to drop out of the chart.

  • Watch out. Multiple companies are trying to get this taken down (again).

    I am just waiting for the inevitable collection of this series to actually be circulated on a torrent site if it gets taken down.
  • This was great, it made much more sense then just listening to the audio from the audio podcast review.


  • My video on the lecture I did at Connecticon, minus the lecture parts.
  • Very nice video. Seeing all the old classics with years on them made me wonder what it must have been like for my parents when they first came out. My only criticism would be the disproportionate amount of JoCo at the end.

    I did a non-Pokemon thing! It's the start of a new Monster Madness style series about movie directors and their filmographies (only not Monster Madness in that the videos will be far less frequent):

  • Producer me and Talent me have a discussion about the future of the channel.


  • I had a good day of filming today and decided to publish a bunch of clips I had taken.
  • It was Kate's birthday yesterday and I had a sudden burst of inspiration! I do not, however, claim any amount of musical talent.


  • First in my Let's Play series. I'm doing this mostly for class but also because I wanted to get back into LPs.

    So, I'm getting ready to launch my new Youtube series, "Behind the Screen". It's going to be show that digs into the production side of media, showing how techniques are used to produce specific effects (both visual and narrative). It'll be like a broader and more in-depth version of my Sound is Magic lecture. Anyway, I needed an into sequence so I hunted around for a template online and found one I loved.



    But their licenses only allow for one usage, which is ridonkulous. So I dug up my dad's projector and made this:



    What do you guys think?

  • Second proper episode of DirectorQuest went up last week, with another on the way!



    Also, since I didn't post a link to it in this thread before, the first episode is here if you missed it.
