I know, I know, another acting video! Pattern tracking is fun, dear ones, what can I say. And hopefully any aspiring actors on the YouTubes will find it useful.
Thank you to those of you who've been taking the surveys, I really appreciate it!
And I'll see you in February with your reg...

Look what came yesterday! My pop up (it folds to a 30ish cm circle) greenscreen! Which is also a bluescreen on the other side! With a zip on cover which can turn it into a gold or silver reflector when you don’t need it as a backdrop! I AM EXCITE.
I gave my old greenscreen to Bruce, the c...

Whoops.
OK, final answer: THIS TUESDAY, THE THIRD OF DECEMBER, episode premiere at 8pm GMT an...

The 10th December, however? Totally doable.
Bearing in mind that it has to be whe...

Dearest Patrons,
This is not finished! You can tell because of the lack of consistent titles, background music, and occasionally I want to add more B-roll.
HOWEVER, it does contain the whole finished scene at the end, and lots of other good stuff, and I would love you to watch a...

Not that I spent most of my day making this video, nonono.
But I was inspired by that Gird Your Loins meme going around Facebook, so.

This episode will be going up...at a point...in the future...to the general public, but the Patron version is done, so why wait?
Thank you to all of you who voted, and...boy. Those of you who recommended this? You were spot on, and I appreciate you. :)

Probably the tiredness is why it's so rambly. On the other hand (excitement!), there is a cameo from Ursa Minor, plus a little bit of footage from the final scene sprinkled in there. Albeit without sound, because there's a little tuning up to be done.
In the meantime, I am home from work be...

So it turns out I looked so tired in the last video because I was getting ill. I feel quite lousy and did not go to work today also I snuffle. But here's one I prepared earlier, as they say, where I attempted to make a video to explain to the director how I wanted the scene to play out.

Like 'Stressing Out' for example.
Why yes, it is an eight and a half-is minute video where I sit in my dressing gown and do scene analysis on The Taming of the Shrew. And also stress a bit because it's four days before the shoot and I was...antsy.
Coming up, once I have edited i...

I was talking to Alex yesterday (who some of you might know as the LowSpecGamer, but I'm not sure we have a lot of crossover in terms of audience), and I said that the scene I'd chosen was basically 'how to flirt violently' and he said 'That would be a great title'.
Since he's quite g...

Video will be forthcoming at a later point, but Kate/Petruchio has a place to be, and we're having a rehearsal tomorrow to block it, and all being well we're filming it on MONDAY. Eep.
I am excite.
In which we lay the groundwork for everything that's coming up over the next couple of months. Also, some footage of me learning the Arming Sword, because FUN!
