Passion projects

I just wanted to say I’m very excited about two upcoming videos. They have a bit more cinematic production quality than my typical web videos.

1) A fun little project, due by end of November. I am putting the finishing touches on it now. I might even show a sneak peak, this coming weekend at RetroGameCon, even though it’s not 100% complete yet. It’s a funny idea I’ve had in mind, even back when I was busy with the AVGN Movie. Even though it’s a shorter video, it’s been in the works for a long time. I actually shot a scene for it as early as last December 2014. The majority of it was shot this past summer 2015, and since then, I’ve been editing visual/audio. The reason it’s taking so long is because I’ve been taking several breaks to work on all the other stuff (AVGN, Board James, Monster Madness). I’ve kept it secret all this time, so the joke will pay off best. I can’t wait for you all to see it.

2) The Board James season finale, due early December. For the time being, this is the final episode that is planned, so I’m going out with a big one. At the beginning of 2015, I plotted out 8 episodes with continuity between them. This is the last of those. Of course there could possibly be more episodes in the future. Just like how after the DreamPhone episode, there was a long break as I shifted focus to AVGN and other things. This might be the most ambitious web video I have ever done. I have been spending every waking hour on it. And if you count the total running time of all the 2015 Board James episodes, it’s almost as if I’ve made an entire feature film in a single year.

And of course, after both these projects are done, I will begin working on an AVGN episode.
