The Boring Rocks Where Life Began
Added 2019-01-12 19:06:09 +0000 UTCDear Patrons, it's time we had a quick chat about the future.
Francesco is gone. And while we are all wishing him the best in what is undoubtedly the right decision, the kid was 50% of this series. He was the heart. It's not a simple transition to lose him.
Yet, most clouds have silver linings, and in his life upgrade, it has me thinking about my own. I'll be releasing an update video to explain further when able, but to summarize, starting in the upcoming season in the Horn of Africa, I think I'm going to split our content into two different categories. I haven't yet thought of what to call them.
Essentially, I want to make better content, in all directions. Our current system limits the real documentary work we could be doing if we were loosened from the weekly burden to produce something 'good'.
So to me, that means drawing a clear divide between the videos we make that are legitimate, and those that are just me free wheeling around a camel market. They both deserve to be seen, but they aren't the same thing, and they don't both deserve the same amount of my time and energy, or your funding. I want to make more videos that matter.
All of this is going to take some time to figure out, and the upload speed from where we are makes weekly videos impossible anyway. So, for the time being, I'm unfortunately going to have to take a hiatus. Apologies to those who need your fix. I'll be back with a bigger dose in no time.
All my love to everyone who cares about our little series,
Evan

Thanks a lot for your support! Once you reach the milestone (e.g. 4x $50) for the tier, I'll email you and we'll set up a call for you, your mother or whoever you'd like Evan to call. Kata
