Coming this summer! Let's try this again addition. (Patreon)

The answer, dear reader--because I did not realize Patreon now had that option.
As you may have inferred from vague tweets and pictures of Will Ferrell, I've briefly returned to USC to finish the 10 credits I had left on my MFA, and yes, that is why I haven't been as prolific as I'd like to be, especially as there are so many projects I wanted to get started on.
So, a few big things - the first is that I'm thrilled to bring on my first full time employee - Angelina has been my best friend for nearly two decades (like Nella and Elisa, also an alum from the caves of fanfiction.net where we met as teenagers), so she will help me get the gears of war started.
The next is that, because of demand, I'm transitioning the channel to be more focused on video essay style content than Loose Canon episodes. That does not mean LC is DONE, just taking a backseat to try some more experimental stuff.
Our big project is the long-awaited "film theory featuring Michael Bay" twelve(ish)-part miniseries I've been joking/not joking about doing for years. Yes, I'm finally doing it, and will be doing it alongside other, non-transformers related video essay content! Traditional Loose Canons are not DONE, just put on the backburner for the summer months. So the GOAL (keyword: goal) is to get out three videos per month for the spring and summer months, so cap your pledges accordingly!
So, for $10+ patrons - if you pledge $10 ONCE in a month, that gets you in the credits for any videos that come out that month. Feel free to cap your pledge - it will not hurt my feelings and won't affect your credit status (I mean, I'm not gonna fight you if you DON'T cap your pledge, but I am just sayin', just so we're clear). So we are excited to get started on my first multi-part series since... The Dark Nella Saga? Well, we all saw how well I stuck to that schedule (hopefully I'll be more reliable now that I have to pay another professional a comfortable living wage).
As for my next video essay that comes out in April (I'm working on one about Disney's Beauty and the Beast right now, so bear that in mind) - vote for which one you'd like to see first!
