Mike Tyson's PunchOut!! For Orchestra + Dance

My first Patreon! As promised, here I've combined dance and orchestra - and this week was Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! The idea for this, which you're helping make possible, is to combine orchestra, dance, cosplay, storytelling, and visual effects. The choreography, music, and even the video quality will improve over time - it's all about baby steps. I didn't realize how much would go into this. Coming from a world of music I thought it was going to take a week or two, but then it wound up taking 4 months! Granted, that was almost all startup costs and learning as-you-go, so moving forward will be a lot easier, faster, funner, hopefully better. I can't explain how much it means to me that you're helping me on this journey. Inter-collaborating the arts has always been very important to me and shaped everything about what I believe about today. Music, in itself, it not the feature presentation. Neither is dance. Nor the video. The feature is having all of them come together! So for this parody, if you're not familiar with the Nintendo game by the same name, it's between to fighters: Little Mac and Don Flamenco. Little Mac is the hero whereas Don Flamenco is one of the stronger fighters who tries to stop you from achieving the "Title Bout". But what really brought me into the game, aside from how fun it was, was the music. The theme when you turned it on, the background music when a player fell down, and even the melodies in-between matches. It was so fun, upbeat, and memorable. Memorable - that's the word to always reach for. For something to be memorable it can't just be good, it has to be relatable and we have to identify with it. We can all identify with being the underdogs and we can all identify with celebrating a small victory and moving onto the next "round" towards something more difficult. So now the first round is done all because of your support, encouragement, and enthusiasm. The next round may very well be more difficult but one thing will always be certain: I'll do my best to make every piece memorable, beautiful, and collaborative. Those are the real things that makes a piece of art relatable. I'm so thankful that you're here with me on this first step so that I'm not alone, and I look forward to taking this next step, together.

Jacob Hoeben I never played that game or heard the music for it but this video seems really great! I think it's even better than your previous two so far, but I feel I may have some bias since I knew the original music for those. Still, I really see improvement and I can't wait to see even more!

Walt Ribeiro @Jacob Yea I've grown a lot since my last video. The one I'm shooting this week looks even better - both in video quality and performance. Onward and upward!

Working With Dancers

I just sent my video to the dance team I'm working with because I have a project that has been a dream of mine for years. It's my $700 Patreon milestone (that's also how much it's costing me this week). But I wanted to do it myself really quick because I may never reach that goal. And since it's been a passion project in the back of my mind, I at least wanted to give it a shot once and show my community! This dance video will be my first official Patreon piece - I think it's going to look so cool! Also, as you may know - I'm releasing 10 songs this week on my Tumblr. But *none* of them will count as a Patreon release. I just wanted to make that clear. I'm still tweaking my page here and trying to fine-tune some of the milestone awards and more. Thanks for your support! Now that my computer is fixed I think you're going to be thrilled with what's in coming up soon!

Hello World!

So this has been sitting dormant for a few months because my computer was crashed and nothing was going right. But now I'm back - and I'm up to 5 Patreons!!!!!! That's amazing. As a thank you here's a picture that says THANK YOU! Since this is an exclusive stream I'll be uploading all behind the scenes sheet music tidbits, pictures, Q&A and more to this channel. 10 songs are coming out this week - but NONE will be a "Paid" because these songs were arranged by me months ago, so it's more about playing catch up rather than creating paid content. I will also have a voting system and more in the next few weeks for different tiered members. I still have to tweak some of these payment options. Thanks so much for the support - and if there's a way to improve on something let me know. This is all new to me, and I still have a lot to learn. Walt

First Post!

Here I am, giving Patreon a shot - we'll see how it goes! I was setting up my green screen last night and worked until 6am. I kept getting problem after problem: shadows, blurriness, late video entrances, etc. This week I released my Lady Gaga 'Applause' video and it turned out pretty neat. As a fan of minimalism, I wanted the video to be really clean looking. The thing that made it really tough for me, though, was that it was a one-shot video. So if I messed up or if the light bled too strong behind me then I had to start from scratch. That's the bad part. The good part is that this was the first time I ever did something like this, so it was a learning curve. My next video would take a fraction of the time. That's what I like about Patreon - if this works out then I'll be able to do more with my music and my videos! Thanks to the early supporters - I have lots of great content for you coming up! - Walt
