I know I'll definitely be able to post a video in abut roughly 2 weeks, because I'll actually have time to make it. Sorry for the wait, guys.

But! Why not share the thumbnail art for the next video early as compensation? It was made by the lovely ‪@HappyPotato0064‬! And yes, it will be the Snowdin Town arc in Undertale!

The first Undertale VOD will also be released in tandem with this video over on ‪@T1gerTaylorVODs‬, for people looking for a let's play style thing.

Final update for the future of this channel:

I often struggle with my wording on these topics, but here goes.

I'm gonna be changing how I handle my content creation

I've realized that, most of the time, I don't have time to edit down everything I want to into their own videos. Even when I decided to lower the amount I edit, I *still* don't have enough time to do so. Plus, often times, it feels like I put a lot of time and effort into something that the YouTube algorithm decides to dislike, which kind of throws off the risk vs. reward ratio, even if I feel like I like how the product turned out should be happy with it. This really messes with my mind for some reason.

I want to post consistently and grow, but I don't think theres gonna be a period of time where I ain't super busy any time soon, which can make me feel really stressed and burnt out.

**So here's the plan**

I want to focus on streaming on twitch more than editing for YouTube. Any sessions I record outside of streaming hours, I will likely edit down into a video. Things that I stream will typically be put on my VODs channel, ‪@T1gerTaylorVODs‬ , specifically anything that works well in that Let's Play format (ie. Skyrim, Celeste). Things like Minecraft will remain Twitch exclusive.

I will be still be editing all of undertale, but it may take some time. I will also edit down anything that is requested on youtube, as I think it serves as good motivation that'll possibly prevent burnout in the future. I'm also thinking of still editing down "one-shots", AKA games played only for one stream, such as The Looker or Arsonate.

I do want to mention that, when it comes to the VODs, I for some reason cannot download them in HD. This means that, if I do decide to go back and retroactively edit something, it may be in SD (unless i can find some sort of a plugin or workaround)

Hopefully focusing more on streaming will allow me to have more reach and to stream more consistently. This will allow for consistent growth and more viewership on youtube through cross platform promotion, which in turn will motivate me to edit more. My goal is to one day be a full time content creator, and I won't be able to achieve it at my current rate, so I pray that this will work out.

Of course, if I can create content full time, there's gonna be a lot more room for editing videos. Whether or not I get an editor in the distant future depends on... well, the future.

I know a lot of what I'm saying is a bunch of maybes, but that's because I'm unsure of the outcome. It may work, it may not. It may work in the future? I don't know my own needs for this stuff, but I want to in order to be the best I can, and the only way for me to learn is by experimenting with this.

For those of you that are already here... thank you so much for your continued support.

I will continue to try to balance content creation and other things in my life to the best of my ability, so that I may produce more quality content.

See you around!

I'm just curious... Do you guys prefer the videos with facecam, a vtuber model, or both???

If it depends on the situation, feel free to give examples (such as, "horror games are better with facecam, but vtuber is better for chill games like stardew")

Hey guys, sorry that I've been inactive on here for the past month, both on shorts and on full vids. College has been quite draining as of late, and whether or not that'll change once I start my practicum is... unkown.

I've streamed inconsistently a couple of times as well, so not much over on twitch either.

HOWEVER

I did manage to START working on the next video, which will be some more lethal company! After that, I plan to start working on the second Undertale video, Snowdin, followed by whatever I decide to edit next. I did recently try Golfie with Riley and Creed on stream, so I may make that into a video, maybe with some of our Skribbl session as a bonus (since golfie crashed for Riley a few times while playing it). I also tried burglin gnomes with pals as well, so that is another possibility.

I know that I havent done much to edit the hollow knight or celeste videos recently, but once I get my groove back I swear I will get back to em. They are on the VOD channel, so the full gameplays of both of those ARE available, just not in the shortened format.

My plans may change of course, as they tend to do, but I still hope to get some work done soon.

Thank you for taking the time to read my message, I appreciate it. Take care!

I have recently decided to start re-editing the last two Hollow Knight videos to be more akin to the first 2, leaning more towards the 2nd one in terms of content.

The reason for this is because I think it is best to revert to a shorter format focused more on the fun, funny, and important moments (such as certain fights). It doesn't mean every video is gonna be super short, just shorter than it would be with more of the unedited gameplay (they were 2 hours bro). I think my editing style is better for shorter videos, I think the videos would be better paced, and I already have a VOD channel that has the full gameplays of the majority of my upcoming content.

I may do this for other videos in the future as well, such as Celeste, so that I may have more consistent content on this channel. This may also include removing *some* story beats, because I think it was beneficial to the 2nd video, and it gives some people the chance to experience certain story beats on their own (THERE WILL STILL BE MAJOR SPOILERS!!!).

In other news, I've also been thinking of starting an alternative channel where I post shorts of all of my videos, so that it can stay separated from my long form content.

SO
CAPTIONS


I tend to occasionally put captions in my videos in order to highlight moments or for hard-to-hear speech.
However, I've recently been thinking of putting full captions for all of my future videos, and just found out there is in fact a speech to text option in vegas pro, so it can go one of four ways:



1) Use the closed captions on youtube, and edit what they say to be more accurate. The formatting may be more off. Unlike the other options, which require my PC, I can do this anywhere as long as I have my laptop. Keep in mind that captions on youtube are extremely adjustable, but on desktop only (from what I can tell). I will do this for all previously uncaptioned videos, whether or not this is option is chosen.



2) Add in the captions in my editing software and have them be basic subtitles at the bottom, without color coding or animation. Similar to Crunchyroll, for example (image 1; the background is blacked out because of Crunchyroll piracy protection). If multiple of us are speaking it is likely that I would put text on the top and bottom, and I may occasionally do text animations for emphasis. Color coding may occur when there is multiple of us, but it also may only appear during points of emphasis. This may have a future poll if chosen.



3) Add in the captions with my editing software and color code all of them. No text animations aside from certain situations. This means the text would simply appear and disappear without a zoom in or bounce.



4) Add in the captions with my editing software and color code all of them. Basic animations for the majority of text where applicable, such as the start of sentences.


Thank you for your vote, it is highly appreciated.


Note: I may occasionally do colored text animations for emphasis, no matter the selection. This includes shakes, spins, full zoom ins. etc. Basic animations refers to bounces and zoom ins on the bottom of the screen (Aka for transitions).

AUTO DUBBING

I have noticed that (for some freaking reason) auto dubbing was Automatically turned on for some videos.

I am currently going through to disable the auto dubbing on all of them as it can be irritating to a lot of people and it's not something I currently want on my channel.

l apologize that this was turned on, but it will be fixed right away

Hey guys!

I was working on a video, but when I was doing some test rendering it wasn't working. It took me a while to fix, but it's fixed now, and I'm currently a third of the way through editing the next video!

It should be out in the next couple of days; Monday at the LATEST. Stay tuned!

Here is a sneak peak of the thumbnail :)

I also wanted to post a sneak peak of the video itself but apparently I can't do that through posts so uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hey guys!

Though I'm sure some of you are already aware, I finished the first video for the codenames series. I am SUPER happy with how it turned out, including our COMPLETELY ACCURATE map of Russia.

I can't link a video and separate image at the same time :( so you'll have to check out the video to see it :)

I have quite a few more rounds to get through editing. I estimate about 10 more videos from the one session, but it may take me some time to produce more. I feel more motivated though, so when I have the time (and am not completely exhausted) it's back to the grind. Each vid will be between 10-20 minutes for this type of game, with exceptions ofc.

In other news, I've been thinking about downloading the modded REPO VOD and editing that into a video; it would've been from 5 months ago, but it's been on my mind. Just thought I'd mention it.

Anyways, have a wonderful day/night/evening!
