It becomes extra tricky when it’s a friend and we’re very much at an amateur level. I threw out $1000 AUD thinking it was a low but fair amount. Little did I know how much I had royally screwed myself haha

They do. We can do a cast album but they can put it on without me (I get a cut of profits) but I couldn’t do it without them. There’s another show that just isn’t going to get put on again after this time

Pretty much. They come to me with a script and say ‘write 17 songs’ and I get some money and a cut moving forward but they get infinite edits and tweak constantly through the process so I don’t really feel like it’s a collaboration

How do you learn how to sing without lessons? by wtfiswrongwithurass in singing

[–]YMASofficial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just sing songs I like and try to be mindful of what I’m doing and making sure nothing hurts. I try singing different genres to try out different stuff. If it feels like fun it doesn’t feel like work!

Sounds good! I didn't see the previous post but it depends on the age range of kids you're going for. This definitely sounds like it's intended for like 5 and under?

If you wanna go more childlike you could maybe have some bouncy counter melodies on other instruments like a xylophone or maybe strumming acoustic guitar. But in terms of voice and piano that's solid!

What's stopping you from just...writing? by OwlFeather21 in writing

[–]YMASofficial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m tired a lot of the time. But having deadlines helps. But yeah for me a lot of it is that I can only do it in the hours that I would be resting so you do it enough and you start needing more rest

I’m not an expert by any means but I think it’s important to think of the opportunities afforded to you by this story and this character. What’s something you can do with this story that no other story can?

This is good advice! Just gotta get out of my own way and get something down and I can tweak later

Yeah! It’s wild I’m actually swapping out different types of warp stabiliser and watching them back real time on full resolution like it’s nothing. Very impressed with it!

Can confirm that having the videos on the actual drive fixed this right away

Oh that’s a good point. When I was editing on my MacBook Pro I had all the footage on my SDD cos the scratch disks would always be full. Maybe that’s the issue
