Just musing out loud for a moment regarding my work

I think I'm going to have to seriously rethink how I do animations, because I have lost so much support over the years, it's crazy when you compare the stats from last year.

I'm guessing long form content that I tend to do, just doesn't seem to work for people. I can only make assumptions that is the case. Maybe I need to just do bite sized content like a lot of animators do?

I'm really not sure. I'd be happy to hear peoples thoughts here on what I could do to improve things.

Maybe its also how I share the links with people to the mega folders. Could that be improved? I send them only after I've got a new update to share with you, ie. a new wip animation. Maybe I should change that too?

I dunno, but I'm more than happy to hear from you if you have any thoughts!

Thanks for supporting as always!

That is all very fair, and my system of doing things is not perfect by any stretch. Its something I have to work on, particularly alternativing between short and long form content for sure. Thanks for subbing by the way, I'll have another round of links sent out soon when I have this next sound update ready!

I'm a new subscriber so take what I say with a grain of salt, as I might have missed some information somewhere. I can respect the choice to not have links up but it might be beneficial to have a PSA somewhere to let people know the timeframes you usually work around (updates approx. every 4/6/8/whatever weeks etc.) as it's a bit hard to gauge what you're subscribing to without immediate access :D With regards to the content itself, I can only speak for myself, but the long form content absolutely rocks. There's an appeal to shorter animations, but longer more coherent animations take the cake for me. Might be worth playing around with it a bit as a creative exercise? Alternating might be good but that's subjective. Hope you find something that works :)

I appreciate that, but please bare with me.

still waiting for the next update

If you can describe me a way to better do that while at the same time, minimizing potential leakers of my content from the folders themselves, I'm all ears.

The only issue I see is with how new users get access to your content. Signing up then having to wait until the next time you have an update to get access to past content is a hard sell. Your stuff is fantastic, and I love the longer videos compared to most creators....but I was hoping to be able to browse through stuff with a membership.

You'd be surprised how long even 30 seconds can take to animate, but I'd have to intentionally make it something that is simple.

Urbanator

I do tend to agree with you, while I still support and love the longer vids, I can understand why support is dwindling, maybe 30 second skits you could combine down the line? Just a thought.

Being put in the same bracket as someone like Nyl2 is quite something haha, I appreciate that! To be fair, I usually post a couple of updates of wip videos monthly no? Granted its not enough by any stretch so I understand and fully acknowledge your criticism. It all seems to takes longer than what you think when you're animating.

Urbanator

Your animations are always top quality, you're in my top three in term of pure quality of animation with Nyl2 and Amazonium, and in my top 5 overall. But the problem is really the lack of frequent update and new content, if it was once a month it would be much better already, even if it would be videos of a few seconds or a few images. And after a few months of wip or part of the animations we get the full video. But other than that, you're fucking good 👍 !!! Continue your work. I discovered you with the Juri animation (when she is in the club) and i loved it and that's when i started following you. For me it's the best you did with the Tina Armstrong 4th july animation. As for how you share the links, well i personally don't have any problem with it so it's good for me. Continue like that ! 👍
