First and foremost, I was very happy to hear that you're going give animation another try. I know that it's extremely time and resource consuming, and Youtube doesn't support animators these days, but goddamn it, I always got excited when I saw animated vids come up on the Jaboody Studios channel; even the short movie review animations. Still to this day, I go back and watch the 'My First Figure Drawing Class' animation and laugh at how great of a story it is, and how hilarious the animations were. Secondly, more Twitch stream? Yes please! I feel as though Twitch really brought you guys to a forefront with the community, and it really has become a weekly ritual that I enjoy experiencing with new found friends. The more people that know about this, the better. With regards to putting Twitch highlights back up on YT, I think it serves a purpose. It doesn't need to be anything long, like you said you could get a mod to clip a moment and then string a bunch of them together to make a nice little video -- all killer, no filler. Watching your early twitch highlights was indeed the reason I even found out you guys did the live show. Lastly, it's awesome that you guys have this goal of getting to a point where you can get a warehouse-type space to call your own, and to create more unique content. I would love to see you guys eventually make it to that point, and you've got the full weight of support from your fans behind you. Reminds me of how guys like Mega64 worked their way up from hobbyist level stuff, to now where they're still making great content, but on a full time basis. No matter what you guys do, or where this crazy journey takes you, I'm happy to support you. Can't wait to see what TOO-SAU-SEB-TEEN has in store!

2017-02-24 10:46:37 +0000 UTCThanks for the long, passionate post Tformy. Yeah man we have been discussing a Patreon re-vamp in tiers for a while. I think when we started it, the tiers were the most difficult part to nail down. We had no idea what it would be like to actually focus on creating videos with more and more of our time. Now that we have an understanding of our own output and creative endeavors it'll be easier to re-think the tiers. So expect that soon. As far as the fans being "disjointed" I see where you're coming from. Boy, I'd love to post dub it outs on Jaboody Dubs. I initially brought up this idea and our management winced in pain and turned that idea down. Their like "yeah we will totally rep Jdubs channel but uhhh...that other channels got tons a clips and shit you don't own so we'll stay away from that one." All those videos on J-studios don't generate any ad revenue for us. It goes to some fuckin "VIRAL MEDIA LICENSE" whore company. We don't own those clips but some companies go and buy those clips for like a thousand dollars and then just claim anyone's video that features those clips. For more incite on that, go check out what happened to Ray William Johnson, he pretty much got sued for featuring clips that weren't his (also the fact that he was making millions and millions of views off of that stuff). Jaboody Dubs is under management of an MCN, which gives us a tinnnnnyyyy wall of defense against copyright claims. Jstudios is just floating out there on its own, getting claimed everyday from other companies. But people here on patreon support that content and it's what we love to do. The idea of putting anything on Jdubs channel that isn't a dub does sound like people would sigh and boo. It is a different crowd. Looking at redlettermedia, they took something like Plinkett and made it into a group focused discussion show. We would have to transform our stuff into something similar. I've been thinking about that for a while actually - I guess it's just a matter of us testing the waters with different formats until we're happy with it. I usually have a new idea every week trying to remedy this exact issue and discuss it with the guys hahah, hopefully this year we try something new because i think something new would have to happen if we wanted to move forward - Appreciate the post dude! <3
