About

I like barbecue sauce. You can really add it to almost anything. Especially the Hickory Smoke kind. Tastes like grill. I really didn't know what else to write here.

Does anyone remember when I did a Kickstarter in 2013? This is similar except it's continuous.

Thanks to 446 gracious backers I was able to complete Animator vs. Animation IV.

I don't see myself topping the 13 minute Animator vs. Animation IV anytime soon, but I do plan to release similar shorter animated videos, more frequently. The next one is called Animation vs. Minecraft.

Since I don't make enough on YouTube to cover my expenses, I've been doing freelance work to make up the difference. As a result my personal animations take much longer, and even a short animation could take as long as a year to finish.

With Patreon, I will be able to devote more of my time to my animations and less time to freelancing, and put out a new animation every few months!

I've also put a lot of passion into my Minecraft Recreation of Spirited Away. With more time freed up by Patreon, I'll be able to move on to other maps, specifically, the whole town of My Neighbor Totoro, and whatever else down the line.

Access to the Patron-only Feed.
This Activity Feed is where I will be posting updates, possibly some behind the scenes stuff.

Patron ONLY Minecraft server!
You will be whitelisted on an exclusive vanilla Minecraft server where I will hang out. Show me what you can build! If you make something truly remarkable I'll feature it on YouTube.
Details:
A 3000 block radius natural terrain map using Towny, a plugin that allows each patron to claim an area to build in. A plugin called WorldEdit is included to make building much easier. Each patron will be allowed to bring 2-3 friends (non-patrons) to help build, but they will not have the ability to fly or use WorldEdit.
Includes all of the above.
NOTE: You will not receive the IP to the server until the beginning of the following month, when your pledge goes through.

I will make a short looping animation of anything you want.
Here how it will work. I will pick one patron at random (of the $10 patrons) and that patron will tell me what to animate. I will record myself animating it, post that video on the Activity Feed, and send the completed animation as an animated GIF to the patron. Everyone gets an animation eventually!
Note: The animation should be simple, like a breakdancing onion or a moonwalking strawberry.
Includes all of the above.
Here's one i did of a winking hummingbird.

Pledge $15.00 or more per month

I will be your Private Animation Mentor.
You decide what you want to learn/do and I will work with you to learn it or make it. We will have a 1 hour online video call once a week where we work together on your animation skills and/or you show me your progress. Adobe Flash required.
Includes all of the above, except $10 level.
IMPORTANT: Do not choose this reward unless you actually want tutoring. I've had too many people choose this and then not respond to my emails.
