Hello, it's Sunday. Time to start filming for a new phone Friday.
I have spent yesterday and this morning working on my Rey cosplay videos.
I've just filmed all of the talky bits. I'm gonna spend this afternoon and tomorrow editing
And hopefully I'm still on track to release them next week.
It's now two days later, and Part 2 of my Rey cosplay videos is uploading.
So I'm going to go for a walk, have a bit of a break
And then hopefully my video will be uploaded and I will start work on editing Part 3.
Morning, it's Thursday now, I have pretty much spent the last few days just editing.
It's been a lot of editing, but today and tomorrow I'm volunteering so I'm having a bit of a break.
This morning I am working on my wig for my Tonks cosplay
The character from Harry Potter.
I need to cut it because it's quite long. I've not done that before so it's exciting!
So it's sort of a bob now, still got to do some stuff to it though.
Guys, I treated myself to an early birthday present, isn't it beautiful?
I'm midway through building it, it currently looks like this. These are the bags that I have left to do.
If you turn this the little flame comes out.
Look at BB-8, it's so wonderful, now living on my bookshelves with Poe.
If you twist this the head moves.
How have you been? I have had a kind of productive morning.
I've been doing some research this morning, and it wasn't particularly fruitful, but it was helpful, I guess.
I'm looking into ways of funding my webseries, the pilot, just the pilot.
Just spending a few hours finding sources of funding which I'm not eligible for, so a little frustrating
But then I spent some time editing, and that made me feel better.
I filmed the entire process of me building Lego BB-8
So I'm thinking of making a video of that if you are interested.
I was originally thinking about uploading it on Thursday which is tomorrow
But yesterday it became very clear that it will take far too long to edit
And that maybe next Thursday is a more sensible goal.
Speaking of, now that Mouse Makes is on Mondays I no longer have a day for miscellaneous videos
So I've decided to make that miscellaneous day Thursday, and I'm going to call it "Thursday Things."
This is not to say that Thoughts on Thursday no longer exists.
It will still be on Thursday. It will be one of the things that happens on Thursday.
Anyway, I have been rambling for long enough, sorry about that
I am gonna go for a walk.
I'm having a bit of a craft day today which I'm really excited about
I'm just about to make four Harry Potter wands
And I'm filming it for a Mouse Makes which will be up on Monday.
I'm making a pair of Luna Lovegood's spectrespecs from Harry Potter for my friend.
So I've got some craft paper that I'm gonna cut them out of.
I was thinking of using this pattern because from a distance it's a similar sort of shade
But I've decided in the end to go for this one because it's brighter and I like the little butterflies.
In the book the spectrespecs are described as being brightly coloured
And making the wearer look a bit like an owl, so I'm going for this one.
The craft day has gone okay, I've half finished the wands and half finished the spectraspecs.
And now I'm gonna go and make dinner, I'm gonna go and make moussaka.
Good morning, it's Friday, I am gonna start editing this video
And then I'm gonna work on the Harry Potter wands some more.
How has your week been? I hope it's been good. Mine's been pretty good, kind of productive.
A lot of videos are in the works, more than usual, which is fun.
On Monday I'm hoping that the wands video will be ready, fingers crossed.
It's on track, but you know how these things go.
On Tuesday it will be my September Favorites video
Because apparently next Tuesday is the final Tuesday in September
Which seems wrong, but it's the case apparently.
My BB-8 building video will hopefully be up on Thursday but I'm not 100% on that
Because I didn't work on it at all yesterday, and I suspect there'll be a few more days when I don't work on it at all.
But the good thing about that video is that it's kind of just a fun extra video
So there's not much of a deadline with it and I'm quite happy to just work on it slowly.
And then Friday of course will be Phone Friday, unless it's on Sunday.
So that's four quite different videos in the works for next week which is fun.
I'm planning on having another livestream on Wednesday 27th September at 7pm on my channel
So let me know if that works for you.
If there's any changes to that plan I'll let you know in the comments below and on my website and social media
Just to warn you, the picture quality will probably be the same as for the last livestream, as in not ideal, but okay.
I'm hoping that from about mid-October there will be a significant improvement in the picture quality of the livestreams
But I didn't fancy not livestreaming at all until mid-October, that seems quite a way away
So I'm just going to go with the less than perfect video quality this week, if you don't mind.
So, that'll be fun, hopefully see you there, let me know if you can come
And let me know if there's anything you want me to talk about in particular.
So a fun week next week. It sounds like it's busy, but I think it's manageable levels of busyness.
That's the best kind of busyness.
Anyway, I hope you have a great weekend, and I will see you soon.
