Progress Update: 5/26/23
Added 2023-05-27 05:09:18 +0000 UTCThis week, I can finally give you all a precise runtime for the new Down the Rabbit Hole: 5 hours, 55 minutes, and 14 seconds.
This week has not been a terribly productive one for me personally for Down the Rabbit Hole; other responsibilities unexpectedly tied me up, including some state automotive bureaucracy and family engagements before I move away permanently to another continent.
As fate would have it, however, Arc, our graphic designer, has faced some hangups, and it's more than likely that I'll be waiting on his materials for a couple of weeks to complete the video, which I am tentatively scheduling for a release next month. (This is not to discredit Arc, who has been working like a dog to get these complicated animations completed)
Despite this, I didn't want to leave you all empty-handed this week, and so I did some of the tedious work of lining up the music with the narration to give you a nice, neat runtime. I'll admit that I'm a bit frustrated about being just shy of the six hour mark, but I refuse to artificially lengthen it on principle.
With my responsibilities fulfilled, I should have some more meaty progress for all of you next week.

2023-06-01 16:38:14 +0000 UTCWhere are you moving to? I recently came back to the US from the UK, and I miss it dearly. I wish circumstances hadn't changed as to force me out, but I suppose life has no choice but to keep going.

2023-05-27 06:36:02 +0000 UTCI can't believe it's not even 6 hours long. What is this? A TikTok? Unsubscribed!

2023-05-27 06:09:50 +0000 UTCI'm truly hoping that you'll be as joyous when uploading it as its future millions of viewers will be while watching through it. Thanks for being so committed.
2023-05-27 05:41:16 +0000 UTCAdd an additional 5 minutes to the video with an advertisement for Monk Fecal Tea (Tm). Gotta support those local monks, ya know? /s Good to hear things are moving along at a good pace! Excited to see the final video moving closer to the finish line

2023-05-27 05:36:43 +0000 UTCThis audio by itself has me on the edge of my seat, I am very excited to see this entire project after all these elements finally come together. Good luck on the final stretch and thank you for sticking with it for this long.

2023-05-27 05:28:28 +0000 UTCAbout 1/3 of the audio is completely finished, the rest needs to be balanced. However, I'm going to run some problem sections by some friends; the music is so good that I keep balancing it too loud against my voice. Ryan has really outdone himself.

2023-05-27 05:25:06 +0000 UTCWait, so just to confirm that I've read this correctly, the audio for the entirety of the video is edited? Does balancing still need to be done or is the audio now at finished product quality and all that needs to be done is lining up the animations with said audio?

2023-05-27 05:19:08 +0000 UTCFalling short of 6 hours might suck, but you DID get 5:55 and that gotta be worth something
