New Video Early Access (hahaha)
Added 2018-03-15 15:11:33 +0000 UTC
Hello!
I'm finally done! I don't know what I was thinking trying to make this, but I sure am glad to be finished. And I really hope you enjoy it. To quote Dean Pelton from Community:
"What I'm about to show you is not the commercial you paid me to create. What I am about to show you is a glimpse into my mind and soul. Please hold your questions until the end. I know you will have a lot of them, but I'll understand if you'd rather I just leave."
Oh my god the Bill Wurtz bit killed me i am dead

This is definitely my favourite video of yours yet, loved all the references, especially Sir Martyn, haha "When I was a small boy" Keep it up mate, I look forward to your coming work! :D
2018-03-22 00:02:42 +0000 UTC
This is comedy gold! New patron for that
2018-03-21 23:32:31 +0000 UTC
Fantastic video as usual, Captain! Does anybody know where the "chroma key effect", thats featured in this episode, is in AE? I want to try it out myself but cant find it. Any help would be appreciated!

Wow, I see this video took you over the top of your $10,000 goal. Well done!
Tim Farley
2018-03-18 17:28:46 +0000 UTC
Worth. Every. Penny.
Kevin McCoy
2018-03-18 05:10:04 +0000 UTC
This video did it for me. How could I justify continuing to enjoy your work without becoming a patron? So here I am! The little touches and effort blow me away every time. You don't even know how good you are.
2018-03-17 13:18:46 +0000 UTC
Going after Blender Guru? Seriously? Well, that won you a subscriber :). I love Andrew and his tutorials and I love the way he responded in the comments.
2018-03-17 12:00:38 +0000 UTC
That smarter everyday impression was brutal and spot on.
2018-03-17 11:23:58 +0000 UTC
So good

Is that your original "accent"? Awesome as ever!
Victor Lima Ribeiro
2018-03-16 22:24:25 +0000 UTC
Awesome. The Tom Scott parody. So good.
Truckee
2018-03-16 22:23:29 +0000 UTC
can't believe I missed all the references, especially Tom Scott and CPG Grey!!
2018-03-16 21:07:50 +0000 UTC
I really loved this episode. I got a kick out of seeing you do segments of the video in various styles other YouTubers use. I've been a long time fan, and decided to finally use Patreon to help support your work. Thanks for being awesome and making good stuff!
2018-03-16 20:44:43 +0000 UTC
I wish I could like this one (both here and on YouTube) multiple times. Had to freeze frame when the source code fragment scrolled up, and it was well worth it for the gags found therein.
Tim Farley
2018-03-16 20:23:27 +0000 UTC
Thank you all for the kind comments and notes! With the more complicated videos, as the days stretch on, I lose all perspective on what I'm doing and just hope it will make sense after I'm done tracing fingers frame by frame or whatever. I'm glad the finished product seems to have the general vibe I was aiming for!
Captain Disillusion
2018-03-16 14:51:00 +0000 UTC
What??!? Fun AND educational?! Whooda thunk it possible? Well, you did of course, Cap'n. Great vid. Glad to support.

The rest of my family is still asleep, and I let out a loud, goofy laugh at "they burn, like witches." How in the hell did you manage to replicate everyone so accurately?

It’s 2:30am and I should be sleeping but instead I’m stifling my laughter and punching the bed at each tribute gag. I think I’m gonna up my pledge. Hope this blows up on reddit.

Worth the wait! Great video!
2018-03-16 09:19:15 +0000 UTC
Dear lord, that was a trip! This one’s BIG!
2018-03-16 08:55:24 +0000 UTC
This might be the greatest thing I ever saw. Didn't realize what was happening at first but then.. Very well done impressions!
2018-03-16 08:22:29 +0000 UTC
So good, well done.
2018-03-16 06:56:18 +0000 UTC
Oh. My. God. Wow. You've outdone yourself.
Tacos are a sandwich, change my mind
2018-03-16 05:49:15 +0000 UTC
This was damn ambitious, and you pulled it off amazingly well. The scripting and style parodying was excellent! The impressions were mostly so, but I thought the Michael from V sauce one could have been better. I laughed a bunch, and was impressed with the depth and level of detail, as usual, Alan. Keep up the great work!
Steve
2018-03-16 03:59:33 +0000 UTC
All the channels he did an homage to were named at the end of the video. The first one was periodic videos, and my favorite of the impressions
Steve
2018-03-16 03:50:50 +0000 UTC
This one is real masterpiece.
Eric Blom
2018-03-16 03:00:05 +0000 UTC
Hahaha cap awesome video, on the next don't forget the Electro Boom Channel
2018-03-16 02:32:05 +0000 UTC
Could not stop laughing. Great work, Cap!
2018-03-16 02:08:39 +0000 UTC
Amazing video. You keep managing to come up with great stuff.
2018-03-16 00:07:26 +0000 UTC
That was periodic videos, another channel that Brady produces
2018-03-16 00:05:17 +0000 UTC
I thought I saw a Numberphile video possessing you, too. Brady isn't worth a subscription?
Carl Fink
2018-03-15 23:53:55 +0000 UTC
This is by far my absolute favorite video you've ever done.
2018-03-15 23:51:21 +0000 UTC
I also didn't click in till the Tom Scott reference.

2018-03-15 23:26:17 +0000 UTC

2018-03-15 22:58:32 +0000 UTC
This is pure gold. I always knew you've got your quality bar set high, but I never imagined it could go all the way that you went with this material. Wow, just wow!
2018-03-15 22:40:07 +0000 UTC
awesome how you perfectly captured the styles
SkaveRat
2018-03-15 21:14:56 +0000 UTC
Amazing work, CD! This was well worth the wait and I'll be rewatching (several times!) do try to catch the insanely complex layering of details you've put in this one. And the parodies are genius :-D
Sarah O'Donoghue
2018-03-15 21:00:30 +0000 UTC
Loving and lovely. Thank you.
William Remmers
2018-03-15 20:57:25 +0000 UTC
This was super awesome! Really fun to watch and honestly comedy gold. Despite having a smaller knowledge in the world of video editing and not understanding most of the vocabulary it's just always a pleasure to watch. And makes me laugh
Karley Wise-Rader
2018-03-15 20:34:06 +0000 UTC
Great video! Loved the Bill Wurtz parts!
2018-03-15 20:23:48 +0000 UTC
Brilliant video, Cap! It was a blast to watch, so I'id the pain to finish it was worth it! :)
Pato Crioyo
2018-03-15 19:59:12 +0000 UTC
I laughed a lot when the Tom Scott bit came up.
Pato Crioyo
2018-03-15 19:58:41 +0000 UTC
I clicked what was going on when you got to the Tom Scott spoof. Nice :-D.
Duncan
2018-03-15 19:57:54 +0000 UTC
I wasn't quite sure at first, but when a sudden Tom Scott parody appeared, it clicked in my head, and I had to start over to really catch all the small things throughout! Worth it!
Kim Akerø
2018-03-15 19:16:47 +0000 UTC
Amazing! Good job D, totally worth the wait and don't stress about it :)

I just couldn't believe your attention to detail, even on the TMZ Article!
More Youtube Drama...
BIG D REGRETS 'CORPS PUNCHING CHALLENGE' VIDEO As 12 More Harassment Accusations Surface
"I'm not that guy anymore." 3/11/2023
If his recent Nazi rally appearances didn't raise eyebrows. His latest video certainly did. [While wearing not]thing but a red thong, Youtube megastar Big D pranced around several high [profile funerals assaulting multiple bodies as they lay in rest [?]] ... what he gleefully refers to as "Celebrity Corps Punching [Challenge.' [?]]...
I'd love to see original TMZ mockup image used in the video. How much more did you write Alan?
Wonderful video, your tone and cadence in the impressions were what sold it for me and my favorite part was that their lines were written in their tone. How involved were you with each of them or did you just get them to take backplates of their sets? So many questions for such an impressive production! You are killing it right now!
Callan Christensen
2018-03-15 18:55:22 +0000 UTC
This was amazing, I'm not sure if I should be proud or worried that I recognised all but one of the parodies. Thanks for the great work as always
Sgtpanda
2018-03-15 18:39:33 +0000 UTC
Amazing video!! Keep up the good work!
2018-03-15 18:09:22 +0000 UTC
I'm old, so I probably didn't get that you were parodying other Youtubers because I just don't know many of them. It only hit me when you did the Smarter Every Day guy. Then I was like... Oooohhhhhhhh. Amazing video as always though. Glad to be a meager supporter.
2018-03-15 18:00:27 +0000 UTC
Funducational, thanks!

Masterpiece!
2018-03-15 17:12:00 +0000 UTC
Crazy, Educational, and just fantastic parody / homage to the other Youtubers.

2018-03-15 16:57:54 +0000 UTC
Your best video yet. Amazing, hilarious, and somehow still informative.

THIS IS A MASTERPIECE

Wow. The goofs and gafs and skill in this vid is perfect! Hope this goes viral

How do your videos keep getting better?? If you keep this up, eventually you'll have to burn out, like witches.

Galen Thurber
2018-03-15 16:01:32 +0000 UTC
Wowwww. Well done, sir, though I have issues with your Tom Scott impression until you called attention to the red shirt and ONE TAKE! That being said I yelled, "YESSS!" when the SED portion came up!
Seriously though. Fantastic work all around.
Can anybody help me with a list of what styles he's tipping his hat to? There are a few I didn't get.
1: Seems familiar, can't name it.
2: bill wurtz, "history of japan" and related videos.
3: CGP Grey.
4: Tom Scott.
5: Filmmaker IQ? Probably not but it's the closest I've got.
6: Destin Sandlin, Smarter Every Day.
...OH if only I'd stuck around to the end. Well hey, did anybody else guess one wrong?
That being said: Captain D, you referenced a lot of greats here. But know that you're one of the YouTube educational space greats too and wouldn't be out of place in someone else's similarly themed mashup!
Boter Bug
2018-03-15 15:58:22 +0000 UTC
Amazing, as usual! You're an inspiration to creativity itself.
2018-03-15 15:55:46 +0000 UTC
Didn't quite get Tom right : I didn't realise who you were meant to be until the t-shirt was mentioned.. Every single one of those channels I already subscribe to!
Richard Bairwell
2018-03-15 15:50:39 +0000 UTC
Hey, it's my favorite youtube channel! Hey, wait, it's my other favorite youtube channel! And the other one too!
This was very very awesome.
2018-03-15 15:49:16 +0000 UTC
Could you stop being the best YouTube channel, this is making it harder for the rest of the Internet to catch up. Amazing job can't wait for the public to see this.
2018-03-15 15:46:08 +0000 UTC
And now for something completely different...
Keith Marrocco
2018-03-15 15:44:43 +0000 UTC
Holy shit! You popped off on this one.
2018-03-15 15:44:31 +0000 UTC
The best Big D I've ever seen! (I'm sorry. Seriously, though, fantastic episode, Captain.)
Seth Wrinkle
2018-03-15 15:36:44 +0000 UTC

2018-03-15 15:36:07 +0000 UTC

Ginny Higerd
2018-03-15 15:28:07 +0000 UTC
It blows my mind how you keep one-upping yourself with every single video! Brilliant!
But the fact that Destin's binary clock wasn't animated totally ripped me out of the immersion
Lukas
2018-03-15 15:27:34 +0000 UTC
That was so good! I was worried you were going to mimic Kurzgesagt which would require many sleepless night! Really great!

Nice of Sir Martyn Poliakoff to make a guest appearance.
