Another day.

The new episode was shorter than expected...

It was kinda rife with problems.. I changed it right before filming due to new comments to add, in the middle of filming when I decided to make these large changes, and then wound up cutting half the material while editing because I found a chance to improve a big segment I felt was a bit weak.



So it's a bit shorter than an average episode will likely be..

Still. Even though it was rife with problems, which lead to a mediocre video, I'm glad to have it out. As I've started altering comments to indicate: I am going to try to release an episode each Friday. With the shortened episodes, I am hoping to stay ahead of the schedule most of the time, allowing me to easily keep up with it despite my own problems and limited hours a week I can shoot footage. So if I really absolutely need the time off from the show (especially around finals, though more likely I don't feel up to it one week) I can do it without postponing anything.

I also may be adding a Spreadshirt store real soon, if only because I kinda want the t-shirt ideas/designs I have myself.

The next episode should be better, but only by a margin since it was also planned and shot at the same time as this one, and had some of the same last minute changes. The following should be somewhat better... because it hasn't been shot yet; time to prepare and not wind up shooting two new intros/outros at the last minute for segments I feel don't flow as well being the focus of the episode as opposed to just a couple small parts of it.

.. the intro for Episode 2 also wound up being cut. It's why it feels awkward; the final last-minute change to remove mention of content I cut to do better later.

I doubt that new episode will be good, given what I think of the stuff I have shot so far, but I imagine it'll be better than the rest of what I've done.

Better planned, perhaps. I think it may even have a modest chance at not being quite so mediocre if I apply myself right. I have a couple ideas on how to change my approach.

I should probably think about which one to do next and start writing.. later.. right now I am so very tired.. too tired to do anything. Not even games.. seriously, I zoned out and it was 5 in the morning. 7 currently.
