Feedback
Feedback has always been my favorite part of WTML, and also, the one I get to play with the least. I have long said that this is actually the most vital part of the project and have strongly encouraged folks to leave comments, questions and the like.
First and foremost, I would like to say that I think the ‘Shout-Outs’ list is officially complete (for now.)
So, I was unable to get the video done in a time that allowed me to post it properly. This is ok. I decided to take this opportunity to flashback on some of my favorite video segments. Hopefully, I will return next week with the continuation of this current journey.
Each of the following segments is chosen for its own set of reasons. There are a lot of years behind WTML and it has shifted and changed and evolved many times over the course of those years. Never, would I say, was it perfected. But the following segments all come close in their own way.
Odds & Ends, pts. 1 & 2:
Odds & Ends has always been one of my favorite posts. It takes place in October 2007. Princess Sunshine had just joined the world and Cuddlebug was already starting to grow into an amazing little girl.
8th Day of Freedom:
8th Day of Freedom is another one I have always enjoyed, at least the first two parts anyway. This one has a lot of fun in it. There are guests and games and riddles. It was a favorite when I posted it and it remains so today.
Mad Genius, Pts 1 & 2:
Here’s the thing about Mad Genius – I was trying to push the limits, do all that I could do.
At the time, I was working on videos on a week by week basis. Each week was the same thing. I would get inspired, write a script, film and edit each and every week. It was the epitome of ‘Thought, action, go!’
In this particular episode I was actually pushing myself to the limit. I had already introduced Walt and had been having on screen dialogue with him. In Mad Genius I introduce another character and the three of us had a conversation. At the time of filming it was just me, the camera and the script. There were no other people, no recordings, no anything. So, as you watch these exchanges take place, keep in mind that what you are actually watching is me having the entire exchange in my head – each character, each delivery. It was all about the timing. Admittedly, there is one noticeable flub, but overall I carried it off well. (I think.)
From here in Geistopia, for now and for always, I am your beloved Rev. wishing you…
Love
Light
Peace
and Freakishness.
