This week's update. Woof.
🕑 Added 2019-08-19 20:37:45 +0000 UTCHey folks! Sorry about being kind of quiet the past week. I have been neck-deep in catch-up. Ben and Ethan have been away for two weeks, which meant we needed to shoot extra stuff on alternating weeks, plus the whole Harbor Patrol edit (which is currently underway on the last episode). And the thing about HP is, it's quadrupal the amount of data than a normal show because of the additional angles, which means my computer can literally only handle cutting one episode at a time. This means anything else I needed to get done, like next week's Back Issues or Bat Issues or the next GBU, all needs to wait. Except the studio is a disaster and there's no room and it's making me insane, so I needed to spend 3 full days moving books and organizing, which also took up time I needed to spend editing.
OH but I also found out that we're indexed wrong as a channel due to the first years' worth of content before we switched to ComicPOP, which means we've only been in front of a fraction of the audience we were supposed to have found. But that's OK because indexing is permanent and there's literally nothing we can do to make ourselves more visible ever in the future of this channel. So only by the grace of the internet gods have we ever had a popular video ever. But that's OK because we've apparently been categorizing our videos too broadly when they've been uploaded, so I spent a full day re-categorizing about 1,500 videos. Oh and maybe the VERY old videos we made are hurting the channel, so I've had to download those videos, reupload them to my personal channel, and delete them from our channel here. And you can't multi-upload, so that all had to happen one at a time, for fifty videos. I got through about 15 last night while Tiff streamed before I passed out and woke up and went back to organizing the studio. Because you know, the guys are back this week, which means we need to shoot Thursday and everything needs to be back where it was and ready to go by then.
So anyway, how're you doing?
Off the Rack will be live soon. Elseworlds will happen. That Superman Terminator episode we shared with you last week? That's this week's episode now. And THANK GOD we did TMNT instead, because that did way better than Supes/Terminator will ever in its lifetime, and we got a few new fans because of it. Oh, and the guy who wrote it touched base with me and said we should work together, so that was also an unexpected boon for us. Well, me. But still.
Tiff is cutting Letters Page, too. I know the show is basically dead, but we have so many packages and I love the show so much so it's still going to come out when it can.
So that's the update this week. It's a shit show, but I think somehow we might actually be in a better position because of it? Who knows, at this point. There's no manual, so it's just blindly working on the stuff you love and hoping people like you watch it. Thank you, btw. You're the select few who found us, and despite that actually directly support us. Can't thank you enough, but I'll try.
Talk soon, gang.
