Steady Crafter In The Wild!
The other day, we were sitting around thinking about how great of a community our fans are and how wonderful it would be for you guys to be able to meet in person. We wanted to make that a little easier for y’all and took a shot at the “In the Wild” concept.

MUSIC PRODUCTION – How I make soundtracks for YouTube videos.
Here is a walkthrough of how I make digital tunes and soundtracks for my YouTube videos. I’m still grasping at the fundamentals of “music theory”, so this is all very basic and involves a lot of trying to rely on my ear… which may not be nearly as refined as yours. 🙂 SOFTWARE TOOLS USED: REAPER: https://www.reaper.fm/ UVI TOY SUITE: https://www.uvi.net/toy-suite.html (This retails for $400, but can be had for a quarter of the price during a good sale.)

FAILING at making a video about FAILING at making toys. (AKA “Let’s make a phone video.”)
I wanted to end the year by releasing a well-produced video in which I announce the release of the POCKETNAUT figure. This is a little homage to the cheaper plastic toys we would carry around as kids. But I wanted to put a spin on this one: The character can have 15 different facial expressions. (And for future releases, we wanted to do other character and creature heads/faces.)
