I've been uploading remastered versions of the Sandguardians Rooster Teeth Special lately. Thanks(?) to the Coronavirus I actually have more time to work on videos, so I decided to remaster a few old ones that were shot on my phone. I'll probably remaster the first two RT Shorts as well, since their video quality is shit too.
Check out Part 2 of the Sandguardians Rooster Teeth Special below!
Here is a new episode of Toy Story Live. This one focuses on the COVID-19 virus, specifically the "stay at home" vs. "opening things up" debate. Don't worry it's not very serious or political but I did want to bring up how people might feel during this time.
Since so many YouTubers, and businesses, are streaming, I thought it would be great to incorporate that idea into the episode. I always try to do something different for each of my videos.
Nice to be writing on here again. It's obviously been a while. Since I've been gone I graduated college, entered the working world, built new skills, read great books, and got back into grinding out new artistic work.
While my upload schedule hasn't much changed (uploading at least 1 video each month) I've become a lot more invested into making videos, much like how I was back in 2010 - 2012. College, tbh, made me less ambitious because I felt like I lost a sense of freedom & novelty while there.
It was different working with other filmmakers since I primarily work by myself on YouTube. With YouTube, I can do whatever I want and I feel more 'free' when I produce my content. When you're making/writing films in school you have professors (who sometimes act like executives) watching over you and telling you what works and doesn't work with your film. Obviously, right? The problem is these teachers haven't really done anything big in the industry themselves. You know the phrase, "Those who can't do teach." Well...
Sometimes I would get adjunct professors who are active in the industry and they usually give better advice because they're actually doing their craft. I also had to make films for my fellow film students which makes it hard to do something out of the box. Everyone's trying to be the next pretentious thing. Maybe I wasn't used to the environment.
Anyway, that's that. Oh, and I got a new video out.
Sorry for the absence guys. No video this month. I apologize for letting you all know this late. I wasn't able to find time to upload anything, but I am working on a lyric video. I wanted to experiment with After Effects.
I am also still trying to finish up this ridiculous Toy Story Live multi-parter. (The hell was I thinking...?)
Finally hit 1,000 subscribers on my YouTube channel! I know it's not much, or even that big of a milestone, but I'm so grateful.
Thank you guys so much for your support! I hope you enjoy my content and will continue to enjoy the things to come! Have an awesome day guys and keep moving forward.
And I mean very simple. Check out an animation (made in After Effects) I've been working on. Hope you enjoy!
Sorry I've been gone for a while. School has taken over but I'm hoping to try and delve into other forms of videos. In other words, I want to try and do more things other than Toy Story Live, Sandguardians, and basically the typical stuff you see from my channel; just to have some variety. HOPEFULLY, I actually make the videos I want to make. Though, I'll still continue my old stuff.
Anyway, thanks for reading and watching! It always keeps me going.
Any who...here's a new trailer mash-up in the style of Red vs. Blue: Season 15 and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Hope you guys enjoy!
I was actually initially thinking about mixing RvB15 and The Last Jedi but I couldn't find a way to make it work, unfortunately. Might do it in the future but who knows.
Anyway, thank you guys SO MUCH for your comments on my RvB: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 video. Didn't expect it to get so big. I really loved the Guardians 2 trailer so that's what inspired me to make the video; y'all know I'm crazy for RvB. But seriously, that video got a huge response so thank you for leaving all your feedback. It really means a lot!
Check out the newest episode of Toy Story Live, Boz Pt. 3!
I would like to give a shoutout to "Lightout Productions" for subtitling a few Toy Story Live episodes. It's a really big help and I'm grateful for the extra work you put in. It means a lot! Thank you!
Hope you guys enjoy this episode. Planning on doing an RT short recreation next, maybe. I haven't done those in a long time.
I hope you're all doing well. The next episode of Toy Story Live, Boz Part II, is up for your viewing pleasure. Check it out and let me know your thoughts.
I personally wasn't very happy with the last episode; felt the story wasn't as strong as it could be & that's a problem for this nine-parter (yeesh, what was I thinking...). So if you've got feedback, whether negative or positive, please voice it. I need to improve.
As I said before, this will be a nine-parter episode arc thing, based on The Wizard of Oz, so I need to make sure each episode is at least better than the last. Thank you all so much for watching! I always appreciate it.
I decided to write an unconventional post today about simply being kind to yourself.
Try to be kind to yourself, as best as you can. As people, we criticize and judge ourselves very harshly. Sure we judge others too but in a way, we're simply judging an aspect of ourselves that we don't like. When we do this, we make ourselves feel unjustifiably sad or guilty when we don't deserve it. Sometimes we do need to analyze our actions but other times we take things too far. While I believe that it's important to recognize your own flaws, try to learn why you feel the way you feel and do the things you do. Usually, if you take some time to think, you can find the answer, or at least understand and accept yourself and your actions a little better.
I still struggle with this myself so trust me, you're not alone. I hope this makes sense because I just kinda wanted to write it out of the blue. I don't really have a specific point to all of this honestly, just wanted to share. Thank you for reading.
Btw, the upcoming episode of Toy Story Live is now in the editing stages. Should be done by next week, hopefully!
Sup guys and gals! Just wanted to share a screenshot of the next Toy Story Live episode! Boz, Part 2!
Also, check out the blog's new look. Hope you guys like it. I feel this one fits better with the color scheme of Intro-Mind Productions, as well as the fact that I call myself Intro-Mind now. Although the url for the blog remains the same: oo7nightfire.
For the first time in a long time, I've uploaded 2 videos in one month, with one of them being a brand new episode of Toy Story Live! You can check it out below:
I thought it'd be fun to do my own take on an existing property for these next couple of episodes, so I thought, how about "The Wizard of Oz"! It managed to fit pretty well with the series' established characters and each one of them has a role. Although, I did change some characteristics around to keep things different from Oz as well as to make it fit with the series.
This episode is the beginning of a possible 9-parter. Yes, 9-parter! Scripts have already been written for parts 1-8, with part 9 still being worked on. Hopefully, I can get them all done in a reasonable amount of time, though I was thinking of making some one-off episodes in-between just to keep things different.
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy the episode! And check out my previous video if you haven't already.
Haven't been on here for a while. As I get older I spend more time on other things as the realities of life begin to creep in and I realize that I have to take care of other responsibilities. I do love doing this online stuff but I will have to start supporting myself financially, which means becoming a mine worker and putting less focus on my YouTube stuff; or make money through YouTube and hopefully Patreon eventually.
The schedule for video releases will be scattered due to school, work, my own issues, etc. Sorry, I hope I'm not coming off as a downbeat, I just wanted to get some things off my chest and explain my absence. Thank you guys so much for sticking with me or checking out my stuff from time to time. I'm currently editing a new episode of Toy Story Live, so that should be out soon!
In the meantime here's my latest video, a RvB/Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 mash-up.
Hello everyone! I hope you're all doing well. ...or are at least holding on in spite of recent events happening currently in the world.
After 3 long years since the premiere, the final episode of Sandguardians: Season 3 is complete and out now for your viewing pleasure! Check it out below!
Man, this was a great season, with all its ups and downs. I feel very proud of this season and all the work I put into it. From the high-quality production value to the development and continuity I tried to incorporate into all the characters. I would not have been able to do it without my magnificent voice actors and you, you awesome person you. I hope you guys have enjoyed it! ...Look me givin' an acceptance speech.
Sadly, until further notice, this will be the very last season of Sandguardians. School and life, in general, have taken over much of my time, hence why each episode takes so long to upload. I'm also going through some issues that are preventing me from making videos as I'd like to be making them. I'm just so fearful all the time that I procrastinate. I'll try to do better in the future and will also work on the story for S4 whenever I feel like it. I just can't guarantee anything.
Anywho, thank you so much for watching! I really do appreciate all of your time and feedback. Means a lot.
I just wanted to say thank you so much for watching, commenting, and supporting me this year. It's been pretty disappointing for me this 2016 in regards to uploads. I regret not being able to come through with things I've said earlier this year like finish Sandguardians S3 before the year's end or start Specter-Morph S2. It hurts disappointing people and I'm sorry I couldn't come through.
Although, I have started writing some episodes for Specter-Morph S2 but will need more time to complete and finesse them. The final episode of Sandguardians: Season 3 is also currently in the filming stages and should be out sometime this month.
As for Toy Story Live, let's just say I'm working on something fun and special.
Anywho, thank you guys for your patience and support!
First off, I apologize for no video in November. School has taken up all of my time and I did not have time to edit; in addition to my own issues. I also apologize in advance, as I will not be able to release the final episode of Sandguardians: Season 3 before the year ends, unlike how I promised earlier this year.
I feel like crap for it, especially since I was so close to ending on time. So again, I'm very sorry.
Below is Episode 49, the second to last episode of the season. I hope you enjoy!
Sorry for the lack of uploads... again. School is really keeping me busy... again. I wanted to at least get something out for the month of October, due to the fact I uploaded nothing for September. So, I just finished a little music video regarding RvB and Power Rangers Lost Galaxy. Check it out, I hope you enjoy it! I was inspired by a YouTuber who goes by the name of "The Unusual Suspect" who makes movie reviews and other Power Ranger mashups.
The next episode of Sandguardians is in the works and will be released soon. Thanks for your patience!
Unfortunately, there won't be any new videos from me this month of September as I've started school again, which always takes up a majority of my time. Sandguardians Episode 49 is currently in the filming stage; things are going very slowly, to say the least. But hopefully, it will be released in October.
A new episode of Sandguardians is out! Check it out below!
Unlike the previous two seasons, Sandguardians: Season 3 will have 18 episodes in total so there will be two more episodes left this season. Things get serious and I hope you all enjoy what's to come! Sadly though, I don't think I'll be producing a Season 4. I have an idea for the story but there are just a lot of things working against me. School, work, future, personal stuff, life, etc. In addition, Sandguardians isn't really getting many views, at least not the amount I'm used to for the series, so I'm assuming people have just lost interest.
I may make a Season 4 eventually but for now, this may be the last season of the series.
A new RT Short recreation has just been released, so check it out! This one is Mixed Messages. I had a lot of fun doing this one because I was able to come up with crazy and outlandish messages. If you're an RvB fan then you'll definitely get a kick out of reading those.
