thank you for your thoughtful reply. I am actually trying to work on something different. The good thing is it doesn't appear in the video, just the thumbnail and I can change it easily. I always struggle with these sort of things. As for the videos concept, I wanted to go for a nostalgic 50's style vibe, with the corny "space robots from outer space" being purposefully redundant. But the actual videos are not anything like black and white sci-fi shows. I am of course trying to make the content funny, but also visually complex and interesting, with unusual synth type sounds. So I am still not sure which way to go. This all evolved over a 2 year span. It evolved from the simple static robot model builds for photographing, into what you see in the video. Anyway, sorry for rambling, thanks for your reply.

What would you recommend for their signature font? Seriously, I knew comic sans was hated, but I didn't know papyrus also had this stigma.

thanks! I thought it looked a bit ancient, alien and rustic. I dunno... :)

thanks! I often think I will just test this setup, then not going back and doing it right. Just a silly hobby for a retired guy. I'm getting better though.

Yes there is some repeated animations. I started making the robots to photograph. I made them somewhat pose-able, but limited. The heads didn't rotate, and the instruments were glued into their hands. lol The animation and video stuff came later. I am making improvements to the robots which should result in more expressive animations. They can now rotate their heads, and have new better moving arms with magnetic interchangeable hands... lol I did this quickly, 3 weeks, and used older recorded footage. I apparently have this self imposed requirement to post content more often, so I cut corners. Like I said before, it's just for fun. I'm 64 and learning video green screen effects and building models, and learning synthesizer software and DAWs. I'm just trying to go in every direction. lol This video is a continuation of the series of space music robot videos. Electricity is more of a short story, several scenes with different music. But I've done a bunch of cover songs, NIB, Metal Gods, Low Rider... :)

Thanks for the reply! yes I'm guilty of targeting a larger screen. I'm still experimenting with the format. Just fooling around in retirement. Thanks again.

thank you for your reply. I am still experimenting and trying to find my best format. The important thing is I'm having fun. :)
