I made two videos in one month! Wowie!
Alright so this one, like always. Was supposed to be easy, and then it wasn't and then it kinda was again.
Hitdude Blood Money was supposed to be a quick and easy edit. A "Stream Highlights" of one game that I had just beaten. Quick and easy
But, it turned out not to be that easy. Because many of the funny bits of the game happened after 30mins of setup. Choosing the balance between "does this cut make sense" and "is this cut too long" really made things stressful. SO i shelved the video for like, a week. Opened it back up at 12am one night and finished it by 3am somehow.
Anyways, I don't think its a very strong video regardless if its done or not. But I think that's due to the nature of the game. Blood Money is a game about waiting for the right time to attack, and its a LOT of waiting. Fast cuts weren't possible and the video is pretty slow because of it.
Or maybe because I've been working on it for so long I've become jaded and no longer find it very funny, who knows.
In other news.
In order to keep myself from going literally crazy(more on that in a later date) from trying to pump out big edits as fast and efficiently as possible. I'm going to start plucking clips from possible "highlight" videos and just uploading them to create buffers between major video releases.
For example, a clip from this Hitdude video didn't make it into the Final cut because it required too much setup and context and was too long. So, instead of being in the highlight video, I'll be uploading it on its own in a few days.
I'll be continuing to do this with other videos as well so keep your eyes out!
Anywhos thats about it for this update, thanks for the support!
