Little Update
🕑 Added 2023-06-20 16:00:00 +0000 UTCOk so. What have I been doing the past few weeks and why am I not back yet? I have:
-Set up a second recording space in the house again (this involved throwing out 70% of what I own and renting a storage unit again) This is the bulk of what I've been doing. I can't believe how much I've let go of but the room is almost ready to start recording in.
- Been really thinking hard about my daily life and how to best optimize my time for success. The year is already half over and I haven't done what I wanted.
-Thinking about new tiers
I am going to be doing a new diary tier every second day right after I do some content for the lower tiers to make up for lost time. I'll explain that in a video this week.
-Come up with a daily schedule I can adhere to that keeps me on track with tiers, sponsored content, improving my skills and our big asmr projects:
Schedule
10:00 am - Wake up
11:30-2:30 - Edit diary tier and set it to render, then tutorials. First I am doing Nuke compositing for superior green screening, 3d motion tracking, rotoscoping and live action integration with 3D objects. I'll replace this with another program when I feel I have a good understanding. I've decided on MAYA/3ds max for 3d stuff, Nuke for compositing but still using premiere for timeline editing and audio, After Effects because I have adobe plug ins, and not sure if I'll leave mudbox for zbrush.
3:30-6:30 - Work on BIG ASMR videos (carnival, baba yaga), this is VFX portfolio planning time. edit and render diary here if haven't yet today.
6:30-9:30 - Work on sponsored ASMR or public channel videos, or edit and render a report for $1 tier on BIG ASMR progress
11:00 pm - 12:00 am - record $5 tier and $10 tier videos in basement.
Right now I need to finish the sponsored video I'm working on but wanted to use Mocha in after effects for the end of it.
My issue has been I set up videos and have the lighting how I want but am not actually ready to record/am not allowed quiet time in the house. So I can't record anything else. The second recording space means I can do other things without disturbing too much the main "set". But it does mean I need additional lighting equipment/second tripod, and can't use all my mics because the main mics are already set up in the scene. I need to figure out a system for this. I'll think about that next.

Thankyou for the update, It's nice to see what in happening in the background, even if it is unfortunately a bit chaotic for you. I hope you did not throw out too much of your art (its always so amazing to see what you created in the past). I know we only know maybe 1% about you form what you share online, but I am oddly captivated by your view and eye for things. The best way I can describe it is how cats have their favorite human they always run to for treats or pets. In that way I guess you can say your my favorite human I run too as an outlet to find a perspective I haven't thought of, or a sense of calmness in hectic day.
Take your time on the videos. I'm here for the masterful quality of the videos you produce, and don't mind the sporadic schedule if it's what you need to keep to your goals of personal development. Hope you're doing better now!

Sounds like you've made good progress so far just with organizing things!
Can't wait to see!

Thank you for sharing with us. I like the idea of another tier. I'm in!

thinking about setting up and following a schedule like that for myself just makes me irrationally frustrated. this is why i can't do cool things
