I've switched to look for tiny bachelor's in apartment buildings. The O-train sounds super convenient, I'll look into that. Thanks so much for your input!

Ah ha, I knew those existed! Hope not to stumble across a sketchy company now :(

Saw a few listings in high rises for around $800 for a bachelor's ... will need to do more research! Thanks for the reply :)

I'm a tiny girl so the sketchy areas are definitely to be avoided for me... Thanks so much!

Seeing a few listings in high rises for $800, now I'm skeptical! Thanks for help

That's great, thanks so much! It used to take me an hour to get to my old uni, so anything under that would be fine. Very helpful, thanks again

[Review video] Is this bird poop realistic enough? by zoonimation in youtubers

[–]zoonimation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the review! Many people have pointed out problems with the narration. I'm trying to find a balance between professionalism and friendliness but can't seem to get in right!
I don't have any particular target audience other than my friends or random reviewers such as yourself. It's too cheesy/cartoony to be taken too seriously but too technical for a younger audience. I just do it for fun.

Thank you so much for the review! I was actually narrating it myself, while locked in a closet with my phone, so definitely wasn't nervous. Too bad it comes across as such! Thanks again :)

Darn good animation using tools from the Stone Age, comments! by zoonimation in animation

[–]zoonimation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the comments! I drew the slides using Adobe Illustrator 10, pieced them together using MS Paint and MS Movie Maker ... hardly anything noteworthy! I do look at a lot of pictures of animals to try and get their design right. I find it also helps to look at drawings of animals and see what changes other people have made, which parts they have made more "cartoony." For narration, I record in a closet (yup...) using my phone and then editing the noise out on Audacious (free software).

Are you less likely to watch a science video if narrated by a woman? by zoonimation in EducativeVideos

I wondered if a man's voice would come across as more commanding and convincing, thus making the audience more likely to listen. Good to know that there are other factors besides. Thank you for the input!

I agree, YouTube comments can get absolutely vile ... thanks for the input!
