    A friend told me he was scrolling through my old posts when I remembered how I started wanting to make videos!

    Once upon a time I saw Novaskin wallpapers like these:
    [​IMG]

    I thought that they were super cool and I wanted to make my own. So I learned to make them and found out they were called "renders. "My real goal was to make a Minecraft animation. I thought learning how to make renders could help me get there because they were like a single frame of an animation! So I did that for a while and a lot of people really liked them. I even did requests on the forums for a while.

    Eventually I realized that making a Minecraft animation was a lot harder than initially thought and I remembered a couple Youtubers called ExplodingTNT and ItsJerryAndHarry(Oh, and CraftedMovie but I had discovered them a little later.) and I always thought that they made Minecraft animations(Which they don't!) Then when I found out that they were actually in the Minecraft game I wanted to make those too! So I bought a video recording software for about $40 and I put together this video using the free Youtube video editor.


    (Credit to Eralois, my doge for building that place)
    I was pretty happy with myself. After becoming a pro at the Youtube video editor my friend told me about Windows Movie Maker. It was even better and a lot easier to use. With Movie Maker I created most of my videos, like the Chest of Doom.


    In that video I learned how to use music and sound effects properly and how to cut clips without having to make each video individually(Blame Youtube video editor!). Around the same time I got back in to making renders with a new program called Blender. With Blender I was able to make face expressions, joint movements and cool backgrounds. That was when I made my first thumbnail, which was for the Chest of Doom. Again people were pretty enthusiastic about the renders, which made me pretty happy(I also opened up shop again, making a couple commissions until I was overwhelmed).

    For a while I took a class on Java development for Minecraft Mods. I made a few videos about them.

    (something special?)

    Eventually I was talking with Eralois and he had a Doge skin(meme), so then we came up with the idea to make a Doge Minecraft Adventure video, which became my most viewed video.

    With this video I gained most of my subscribers.

    For a while, my computer had broken down and I was forced to use a Macbook Pro. While it was kind of annoying, I did make some pretty good videos out of it because of iMovie. I tried to use Final Cut Pro but I just thought it was too complicated. iMovie was a lot like Movie Maker except it was even EASIER to use! It did have a couple limitations, like not being able to choose where exactly to put my text subtitles.

    Then I applied for the Media rank here on Meepcraft! I made this video using iMovie just for it:

    I was really overwhelmed from the support that everyone gave me on my application, honestly. It's really awesome to be creating videos for such an amazing server and I hope that the server stays around as long as possible!


    Some other videos that I am proud of:

    (Made this with Eralois, it took a lot of command blocks!)

    (Maybe I invented a new type of parkour? I might be the first.)

    (Meepcraft's 4th Birthday video, I made this with iMovie aswell. My first video as Media!)

    (Video about a cookie thief who likes to start riots.)


    I'm starting to learn to make Minecraft Animations, from the same place I learned to make mods. So hopefully that'll all turn out well!

    I've got a special new video coming up and it's super exciting because it's going to be my first video with voice acting! Some people already know about it, but I'll try to keep it a secret!

    Everyone is awesome!
