Ok so my video is out now woo! But I am still workshopping how to present it, and how to convince people to click the video. Which one of these or other stills from my video would work better. Should I have text in the thumbnail?

I am very nervous. I woke up at 6am today to input all the subtitles and everything is ready. If you have been following this journey then you will know how stressful it has been for me to finish this film that I shot 3 years ago. I even had to create a whole new character to add to the beginning so that I could cope with how different this film is to my current work. Once this premiers i'm gonna have a Maya day and stretch and be silly and bu...

I based her posture on a pin up girl from the 40s that looks so much like me! I am making big progress now, just filmed a scene in the middle of the night in an empty parking lot with my mom it was really fun! I'm really grateful that my mom is so cool and artistically weird just like me. Will be posting costume shots shortly!!

I can't tell you all the details because I am still very afraid of my idea and typing it fully might give me doubt. Maybe you will be able to read some signifiers from the dress. I already broke off a piece of my discarded centaur puppet for a prop so I just need to be brave!
I am possibly adding a narrator to the film. They are going to be a cursed WW2 crank siren...THATS ALL I'M SAYING. The image above is the beginning stages of the co...

I had just two very intense critiques yesterday on my snake girl film. One from an old professor and one from one of the artists acting in the film. My old prof suggested a whole narrative overhaul and my artist buddy suggested some structural changes. I'm going to take this joint and smoke some of it, walk around the city and think. I don't usually smoke, drink or do any drugs (i don't even drink coffee or tea!) because i am very sensitive. b...

A few years ago your rat made a barely functional moving centaur puppet and everybody was impressed THE END. But not the end for her...because that extremely large and broken puppet has been sitting in her cage this whole time taunting her. Anytime you try to remove it she hisses but keeps her resentful gaze on the partially covered up centaur carcass. Alas, it took me 3 years but I have made the decision to remake the puppet and make it good....
2021-08-13 14:47:19 +0000 UTC View PostI am currently sending the first export of my (big) short film to close friends and am hoping for some good and cutting critiques. I find parts of this film hard to watch because of it's sincerity if that makes any sense. I am used to seeing myself in an ironic role or one where i'm being funny.
Also the audio isn't perfect in some small parts which makes me want to DIE!! It was filmed almost 3 years ago and I didn't know all my video/au...

I dunno if you know this about me but i'm a hustler. Specifically a hustler in the most non lucrative ways imaginable. I just returned to my apartment after being away for 10 months and was terribly reminded that I not only started an after school childcare business but ALSO an art supplies e-commerce business. I am surrounded by unsold goods that whisper things to me like "just bite the cost of shipping and you shall prosper queen". I think t...

I convene with some mean flies, reverse old prayers, swim in a dress and talk about existential risks!
I decided since I was burnt-out this month and working on my big wrestling rock opera video that I would do an unsettling beach episode (NO COSTUMES!!). Unless you consider trying extremely hard to get to most attractive angles and lighting of myself possible a "costume". I had a lot of fun doing it. My big brother actually suggested that I make a stream of consciousness comedy video because I used to make those all the time on instagram. ...

If you are wondering why it looks like we are encased in plastic, it is because we are wrestling inside an enormous inflatable bubble! For some context, this is a story where a snake girl is trapped in a bubble laboratory by a nazi physician and has to wrestle her way out to freedom. I might post the full film here first so that I can get some feedback. I want the film to be like a rock opera and feel kitschy and meaningful at the same time (t...

What is something you look for in a discord server or makes you feel connected? (why do i feel like a cop/brand ambassador for Wendy's asking this?) I have never run one before but I like the idea of feeling like you have a close community and can share art, weird ideas and jokes in. My patreon is pretty small so maybe we could make it a cozy and welcoming place. Are there specific things you value in a server or digital space?
Hello my dear patrons, my fellow colleagues, my esteemed rat owners. A few years ago I filmed a big wrestling opera where I performed as a snake girl, battled against a nazi physician and escaped his laboratory. I may be releasing this video this month. I am currently speaking to my composer friend who made the music for it, we are almost finished. I am very nervous to release this film but I owe it to all the cool people who were involved to ...

Setting: Your rat is swimming in a tiny inflatable water bowl with shark goggles on. There is a small sign outside of the bowl that says "waiting on a brain explosion DO NOT DISTURB" you slowly back away and leave some kib next to her towel for when she gets out. 3 Hours pass and she has splashed all the water out of the bowl and is lying melancholically in the centre. You ask whats wrong and she squeaks "IM WAITING FOR A BRAIN EXPLOSION!"

There is a scene in my just released video where I cosplay as an alien cosplaying the girl from the teenage dirtbag music video. (It's a lot) If you would like me to mail you two FAKE tickets to Iron Maiden, shoot me a message. The tickets are on a nice cardstock paper and you could give it to a friend or use them for bookmarks, either way it's free!

I hope you all like it. Thank you for being on this very intense journey with me. The video is kind of my magnum opus. I feel like eating a lot of cookies as a reward!! Please comment on the vid so that ppl will think it's cool.
P.s My big brother always makes my music for me and he's a genius so check out his spotify!!

It's a shame I couldn't keep me dark hair for the actual film. I had to display my paper wigs and they looked more video game esque. I think the white skin and burnt/rosy accents contrasting with dark hair looks cool. Very snow white. I'm finished my jiggle physics video finally! I will be posting it in the next few days. I am praying to the boob goddesses that my manifesto is seen far and wide.
P.s I started reading the dark tower...

Yes there will be a scene where I cosplay as the love interest from the Teenage Dirtbag music video in my jiggle physics vid. I used this luxurious pink pillowcase that was gifted to me. I hate it because it triggers my sound sensitivity when i'm trying to sleep because it makes crinkling sounds. I want all my costumes to look like the alien who is obsessed with internet culture and jiggle physics has hand sewn all her costumes. She could easi...

I am currently editing and it is going pretty fricken good. (Not beaming just reporting the facts) I finally feel satisfied with the costume and makeup and I am finding it really easy to work in little sci fi sound effects and tropes to make the footage dynamic. PLUS I found a way to mail all of you little presents that relate to the vid. You will have to wait and see what it will be :O

The new additions to this costume are: I finally figured out how to make a paper wig! Red markings that are stronger. White face paint that I sealed with baby powder. T-shirt that I got from the kids section at value village that I sewed "Save Planets" to. Canada Day shorts that I got from Walmart that I covered over with a lifeguard symbol. Stole the felt fabric from dollarama (they had it coming). If I have the courage, I will tr...

My dear confidants,
I crept around a quant little mall for two days straight trying to reimagine my alien character. Sometimes I creep around malls to see how clothes are put together and the different personality tropes that clothing can signify. There's kind of a Steve Irwin crocodile hunter thing going on currently with summer clothes. I decided that showing more of her skin would be important especially if she is a scholar of 2...

I filmed today all morning and have been looking at the footage all afternoon and I feel like there is a terrible clash between the character's face, outfit and background. It's like 3 very distinct aesthetics talking too loud. I think for the scene where she is in the cave she needs to have a less complicated outfit, something more similar to her face. I also think I need to light the body more and make the cave more curved, darker and more c...

Don't mind my skin, I tried on a different look before with fake stitches but didn't like it so my skin looks shmootzik (which means dirty in yiddish). I am still going with that tim burton style goth look, but I plan to change outfits 3 times and need a more distinct alien doll look that's consistent. I will make the lines harder and more bold, maybe i'll add some veins. Maybe that's enough. I am wearing some white face paint to look mo...

(This scene takes place in a sterile white room, the viewer slowly opens their eyes. A strangely dressed alien looking woman dressed up in a goth outfit appears before the viewer)

hello owners I see you have come to change my sawdust bedding, let's skip the pleasantries and get down to business. While you are cleaning my cage I have you held captive and you HAVE to listen to my art complaints. I seem to have accidentally made a Tim Burton style character and I need to backtrack pronto. Is this what happens to goth posers like myself? We just default to rhinestone crosses and Tim Burt? I am thinking if I add some shading...
