The War on Science (live version)
Howdy folks! Barring any surprise major mistakes, this will be the live version of the video that will be going out soonish. Thank you!
The War on Science
Hi folks! Sorry about the delay between uploads, this one jumped to the top of the queue & as you can see it is quite the monster. 4 hours!This version is relatively low-res & only has the bare minimum of visuals in there in order to understand what I'm talking about. I imagine some long quotes might be hard to follow without the text there, but they'll all have visuals when it goes live. It's also too quiet, apologies - I selected the wrong option on export & it takes all day to export and upload 4 hours of video so I'll just f...
Stellar Blade: The Fake Outrage
Hello folks! New vid new vid. Two whole hours of silly culture war nonsense, oh noApologies for being slow with this one, I caught covid a couple of months ago & was left with a bad chest infection that prevented me from recording audio, which was very frustrating. Finally better now, thank god. I did get a lot of reading done for future videos while resting up at leastCredits & thumbnail to come. May tinker with the audio levels a bit tooFeedback very appreciated! Thank you <3
Palestine (live version)
Hello folks! This is the updated version of the Palestine video. This will be going live in a few hours probably unless anyone finds anything egregiously wrong with it.Thank you for your support, as alwaysShaun
Palestine, backer version
Hello!Sorry this video took so long. I was making a different one and had to interrupt it to write about the situation in Gaza, as I couldn't think about anything elseThis is a very early version visually, most of the images aren't in yet so some parts (long quotes etc) may be hard to follow. Patreon thanks/thumbnail/video description to comeI'm going to try to take a break from big sad projects and focus on shorter fun ones for a while. I'd like to get more videos finished (and have them not be so miserable to make)Thank you so...
I went to a Let Women Speak event
Hello!Little patreon-only video sharing some thoughts about attending the counter-protest to a recent Kellie-Jay Keen event.Thank you all for your support as always,Shaun
Kellie-Jay & the Neo-Nazis (backer version)
Hello all!Early version of my next video for all you lovely folks. Nightmare, this one. Accidentally spent entirely too much effort on it imo.Notes very welcome. If the colour of any images seem a little weird, that will be fixed in the live version (editing software not playing nice with image formats). The patreon thanks/credits aren't in yet, along with some extra images that will be added near the end of the video & one or two other things I may change, but everything else is mostly there.Disabling my patreon and going on a break from v...
Vid update:
Howdy folks! Just a little work updateI have a few projects nearly complete, but i'm putting everything on hold to work on something i feel is very important but very time and energy intensive (watching the entire livestream archive of a very prolific transphobe)There will be a video at the end of it, but yeah: this channel has hundreds of videos, so it's taking me a while to get through. I thank you for your patience~
PragerU on Fathers
Hello folks,Hope you're all well. I made a little PragerU response video. Just a lil fun oneI still have that predator video on the shelf, but i'm in two minds about it atm, think i might need to take a different approach to it. Besides that I have a few other things coming - i might put out that video about one of my favourite anime shows next. please don't all leave if i start talking about animeThanks as always,Shaun
Early version of new vid!
I was going to take a longer break from making videos but then I wrote this by accident. I know I said the next video was going to be about predator, but then this topic grabbed meJust audio for now. All feedback very welcome! Tate is utterly awful but I go easy on him at the top of the video to not scare off any of his fans who wander through by accident. A few additions to come, in addition to the visualsThanks folks!
Howdy folks! lil update
I have a video nearly ready to go out, but I gotta admit: I'm burnt out at the minute and just can't handle the stress of releasing it right now lol. So I'm gonna pause billing for a while and take a break and come back to it in the new year, I hope that's okay. I'll resume billing after I return & put this one outThis is just a fun movie one, but I have a bunch of longer projects in the works that are kinda spiralling and getting out of control. I think after I take a break I'll try to prioritise a bit to stop myself ge...
New vid~ JK Rowling's New Friends
this one should be good to go out soon, assuming nobody spots any massive errors with itvids update: I have a few longer projects in the works, but they were taking a while & i was feeling bad about not having put out a vid in a while, so i swapped to this one, which i convinced myself i could finish quickly. surprisingly it turned out to be longer and more complicated than i initially planned. this happens with every single project but is always a surprise somehowthanks as always for your support~
bbc response #4
Howdy folks! yet another bbc response, ehThere's a few pix missing from this, & i'll sort the video description and thumbnail for the live version. also the fancy new art by skutch is a lower resolution version, but the live vid will have a higher quality version of itlet me know what you think! excited for a future where this article is gone and i can stop thinking about itthanks all
lil vid about ex machina
howdy folks! i've wrote a short (for me) vid about the wikipedia plot summary of the movie 'ex machina.' here's an early audio-only version. full version incoming when i can get the darn clips past the cursed youtube copyright system. might just use screenshotsi've been working on a few longer projects lately but was having trouble committing to one to finish, so i decided to change things up and make a shorter less-serious vid instead. the bbc just put out a response to the ecu complaints, so i'll probably look into tha...
(hopefully) final harry potter video
howdy folks!here's the harry potter vid, updated with pix & a few additions. barring any major editing errors i didn't spot, this will be the version that goes livei really hope the next thing i write is shorter, these long videos are real bastardsthank you very much :)edit: noticed an error, fixed in this new version
early harry potter video
very early! basically a podcast. there's no visuals other than the wonderful background. i think it mostly makes sense with just the audio for an early peek, thoughstill got to add a full conclusion, but script-wise this will be close to the live vidany thoughts would be very appreciated!thanks,shaun <3
early version of video about recent bbc transphobia
Howdy folks! Quick video about an article that really annoyed me. Content warning for sexual assault, transphobia & transphobic violenceTitle, video description (inc content warnings) and real thumbnail to come. No credits for this one as it's only shortAny feedback appreciated as alwaysThanks,Shaun
hopefully live version of next vid~
in a shocking, unprecedented turn of events, this video ended up being longer than i expected it to be. amazingadded what was missing, made a couple of minor additions & clarifications. any further clarifications can go in the video description, this'll go live soon unless there's a last-minute mega-emergency.EDIT: i say vaccinated instead of unvaccinated one time, so i reuploaded the vid with a lil annotationthanks folks <3
(most of a) new video, hurrah
howdy folks! here's the first half an hour or so of my next video, which is about jimmy dore's anti-vaccine videosfor people saying they can't find the link, there should be a big thumbnail above this post that you can click on. for anyone not seeing that, here's the url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j591l65o19Mthere's probably 10-15 minutes missing from the end of this version. that part contains some talk about another couple of dore's videos, max blumenthal, & the conclusion/creditssome changes will be made for the...
Shorter video suggestion box post~
Howdy folks!As I'm taking a temporary break from working on longer (& more depressing) videos, I thought I'd make a post on here that people can respond to with suggestions for shorter (& less depressing, hopefully) projects.Anything in particular you'd like to see me talk about? If so, leave a comment below & let me know! Ty~
quick discworld vid
experimenting in making shorter, less taxing videos! woohoo. this one's about the recent twitter talk about terry pratchett's discworld novelsthere's no outro, there's a lil audio missing, & checking it thru it needs a few small changes. video description ofc. and a title. ha. all will be fixed for the live versionopinions and comments very welcomethanks folks!
prageru & the law
Howdy folks! new vid new vidI had a big project in the works which stalled out near completion - the series about capitalism i talked about a while back became one big video (i can't write a series, apparently, lol) but then i got the ol' creative block and got too anxious to put it outso it's on the shelf briefly, which i try to get back in video-releasing mode with some less stressful ones, like this prageru nonsense! enjoy~ comments very appreciatedto do: a couple audio fixes, some more visuals to be added, title, thumbnail, cred...
The 1776 Report: backer version
edit x2: i swapped the vid out for a less blurry versionHello folks! New vid new vid. Feedback appreciated as always. Sorry I missed my deadline on this one, it ended up being 3x as long as I expected it to be :(Some notes:- That’s not the real conclusion, ha. Proper title/credits/video description to come with the live version- There’s a few minor script changes to come, possibly some larger ones in response to any feedback people may have. Also some pictures to add- Pronunciations! I guessed at how to pronounce a few names in here. Plz co...
an asteroid hit me
not really. i previously rather confidently stated my 1776 commission video would be up for backers by the end of the month. but, to my shame: it isn't quite there, and i'll need an extra couple of daysmy apologies, folks. i have no real excuse, i simply hit on a better way of arguing my case fairly late into development, which is nice, but that required me to change up the structure of the script and i'll have to rerecord a fair bit of the audio.sincere apologies. video incoming in a short while ~
lil update! also ask me q&a questions plz
Howdy folks. Little update so's you know what I'm up to this month:I'm back to working on vids, firstly a short vid about trump's 1776 commission. That'll be out this month, sans an asteroid hitting me or something. Still working on that series I spoke about a while back, but that'll be huge, & I think I should try to do a couple of shorter vids before settling into a big project again. I'll keep you posted as to what I work on after this next vid is out.Also: there's a sub milestone coming up on youtube! Huzzah,...
atomic bomb live version :eyes:
This is the version of the atomic bomb video that will (hopefully) go live later on today. Various small visual and audio fixes, & a few additions based on feedback.Thanks again for all your support while I worked on this video. I'll return in the new year with some shorter projects. I have one other large video project in the works, the series I have posted about before, but I think I need to take a break from the big projects and work on some smaller things for a while. Open to any suggestions on that front, as always :DThanks,Shaun
atomic bomb: backer version
Howdy folks! Here's the early version of my video about the atomic bombings. Feedback would be lovely ~processing is being slow so the higher resolutions might take a little while to be availableThis was a nightmare to put together, ha. Once the live version is out (sometime early next month) i'll be hitting pause on my patreon for a month and vanishing for the holidays. When I return it will definitely be with some shorter projectsChanges/additions to come:- add credits, outro, video description, bibliography (& onscreen page citations...
Howdy folks
I'm back to video work this month! Hurrah, etc.I was feeling a little burned out working on the video series I've mentioned before, so I've put that to one side for the moment in order to work on a video about the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. A rather grim topic, & I hope I'll do it justice. I think it's turning out well so far, anyway.My hope right now is that it will be out within a few weeks, barring any huge upsets. Though 2020 has been a fairly chill year so far all around, so I don't see that hap...
Lil update
Howdy folks! I have paused my patron billing for the next month, as i'm taking a short break from working on video scripts. Nothing to be worried about, just need to take a breather before coming back with ~fresh eyes~Thanks,Shaun
