You ever get a weird line from a movie or a game stuck in your head? And then it just becomes something you say all the time in your inner monologue?? For years now every time i hear someone call Fedor by his nickname "The Last Emperor", or even hear anyone say the word "Emperor", i hear a line from Dreamcast classic "House of the Dead 2", and well i wont spoil it for you but i thought id mash the two of them up. I was gonna put it in the video but it didn't turn out as well as id hoped as its only a couple of seconds long, but i thought I'd share it with Patrons at least!
I've been doing a lot of keyframing in this video (its a technique like stop motion animation, used to highlight a person or object in one video, track their motion using hundreds of individually moved keys, and insert them onto a backdrop in a different video like i did with Fedor here) and it's a pain in the BALLS. But i was determined to do it for another segment that really needs it, it took me 6 hours to keyframe about 12 seconds of footage. And even at that its pretty sloppy keyframing as i don't have the time to do it really well. It would add weeks onto the production time if i wanted to do it really cleanly and professionally, and i just don't have it in me!! But i hope you guys appreciate the results, as long as you don't look away from the screen for a few seconds and miss it completely 😂😂
I was working on a segment about the Pride 2004 Heavyweight grand prix today, and talking about what a great/terrible idea the whole tournament idea is in MMA. In order to illustrate it, i fired up UFC Undisputed 3 and created an 8 man tournament where 4 of the men are Brendan Schaub. Unsurprisingly, Cain Won!

25 minutes of the video complete now!
I hope you're all doing well, take care and just bleed 😬
