Half Way Through a Script About Shostakovich

Hey all. A bit of an update. April/May was always going to be the busiest months of the year for me due to multiple stacking deadlines.

This has had a bit of an impact on my YouTube output, which I'm aware of. Apologies about that. However, I should be over the hump soon. I've got two new pieces almost written (hence tw...

Update

Hey guys, so I thought I'd give an update about what's happening with the channel.

After the MuseScore video came out, a few new things popped up. The first thing I'm working on is a joint video being led by David Bruce, where we (along with other YouTubers: Adam Neely, Nahre Sol & Ben Levin) write a 1 minute piece ...

My Second Eurovision Video (Not Currently Available Anywhere Else!)

In Case You Were Wondering...

The Thing is Done!

It's out. My word, this was the hardest one ever. Thanks so much for your patience and support. I'm going to focus on a few shorter videos over the next few months so expect more activity from me.

Thanks again!

MuseScore Out in a Few Hours

Really sorry about the delay. I just wasn't happy with the editing and had to go back and redo some of it last night.

I'm currently rendering the final edit while writing summaries & making thumbnails.

Almost there!

MuseScore Video Out on Monday!

The Editing is all done. This one's going to come in over 30 mins.

Got a whole bunch of cleanup and grading to do tomorrow and we're there. Here's a tiny clip (roughly edited) .

Getting Close! Here's a Taste of MuseScore!

This video is officially the most time-consuming and difficult of any I've made. The good news is that the worst is over and I'm entering into the final editing / cleaning-up phase. It's going to be a long video, so this is only a tiny portion of it. I'd say it'll be another 7-10 days before I'm done.

Enjoy! (And tell m...

MuseScore Outtakes

This video is an utter nightmare to put together. I'm over the hump now - with just a bit of editing to do before I'm done. Seriously - I would never have expected software reviews to be so hard and time-consuming. I'll give a few more updates over the weekend. I've got some pretty intense imagery for this one :)

Upcoming Software Review: MuseScore!

Hey. So, our Augmented Reality video is doing well, although we're finding that adding in all the necessary art is a really big job so we're taking our time with it. And since I don't want to hold up the channel behind this, I began a new Audio Software video last week.

This time it's MuseScore. For those of you who don...

Another AR Update

Here's an art pass done by the art director, Savith. This gives an indication of how we might approach the overall look and feel.

Update On My AR Music Project

Hi guys. So this is another render test I completed to figure out how 'exposition' type stuff can be visualised.

It's a really fascinating project because each of the 4 artists on it are all working independently and we haven't yet combined our work. By the time this is done, there'll be a ludicrous amount of stuff floa...

New Video is OUT!

Hey guys,

After three hours, I've only just realised that I forgot to add the 'Thanks to my Patron's' section at the end. I'm really sorry about this. I was rushing to get two videos out before the new year and despite remembering to do it with the Christmas video three days ago, I forgot it with this one.

Apologi...

A small gift while I complete some larger work. No charge!

My two other videos are progressing nicely. I'll be updating you about those shortly. Have a nice holiday, everyone.

YouTube Knows Me Now

Hey guys, thought I might message you again to let you know how things are doing with the channel. In short, the last week has been nuts.

First, my Sibelius video is growing very nicely. It's easily the most successful I've ever released and has resulted in all the competing notation apps getting in touch to offer press suppor...

New Project I'm Working On

So, I've decided to do a different format for my next video. It's going to be a look at what I think we can expect our experience of music to be like when Augmented Reality is properly solved (ie: everything is 3D scanned and devices are small enough to wear without looking foolish).

To do this, I filmed myself walking down an...

Finally About To Hit The Big 10K

Hey Guys, 

The Sibelius video is shaping up to do pretty well. I got 10,000 views today alone! In about an hour or two, I'll finally pass into the classification of a 'small' (but legit) YouTube channel.

Thanks so much for your support so far. It makes me proud every time I put your names at the end of a video. I've...

Latest Video is UP!

Hope you guys like it. Was tricky to get right!

VFX I'm working on for my next video...

This is how one spends a Saturday afternoon...

The next video about Sibelius should be out by Tuesday or Wednesday.

Tiny Blooper Teaser...

I'm half way through my Sibelius video. Here's a failed take.

New Video is Up!

Apologies about the delay with this one. The next one will be up a lot sooner.

New Video Almost Ready

Hey People,

Apologies for the lack of movement on my channel. Had a couple of family things to sort out but am solidly back on the horse now.

New video should be out next week. I've been working on it for what seems like forever.

Thanks a lot for your patience.

Teaser 2

Here's a proper teaser. Don't worry, the whole video isn't about this!

Next Video Teaser

I'm working on something that's taking a little time. Here's a still image. It's gonna be epic.

Sigh. My First Copyright Strike...

Hey guys, my recent Eurovision video (along with the one from last year) was hit by a takedown notice last week. Still trying to work out whether I can get it back on my channel. May take a while. May never happen.

In the meantime, here's a super secret version on bit.tube that a strange man in a mask uploaded without my prior...

My latest video is up!

This video is about designing music software with a specific focus on Reason, the flagship application by Propellerhead. It's a little different from my others and I'd appreciate feedback on it.

I also just noticed that there's a typo at the end where I thank you guys. It's a miserable typo. Really sorry to both Donal and Jan....

I Have a Question For / About You

Hello. I'm just finishing up my next video about Propellerhead's Reason. I wanted to check with everyone here that it's OK for me to add your names (as I see them on Patreon) to a 'Thanks' section towards the end of the video?

Feel free to PM me if you've any issue with this.

Thanks!

The Thing is Done!

Thanks for waiting around patiently. I'm actually half way through another video that I had to stop to get this one out.

Hope your ears can take the song at the end!

Let me know what you think!

Teaser for my new Eurovision video

Hey Patreonisers! 

It's been a crap few months, with both my kids getting really sick and then me getting sick too. But all that's over now and I can get back to dedicating myself to all things Tantacrul.

I've a bit of pent up rage to get rid of, so I decided to pause my other ongoing project in order to focus on th...
