Also, remember to check out Coded Deceptions and try out for it! We need you please!

PS - like how I figured out how to post videos, finally? Geez, I really needed this... Anywho, enjoy the fact that I can now officially upload stuff here, and you will now get to see everything that I upload normally, plus MEPs and WORMs that may not be uploaded on my regular account.

PPS - I might start uploading pictures and stuff to my Tumblr, so please follow me there so that you can get twice the amount of updates that you already get now!

Introducing the Featured Editor!

Mostly, this is just to introduce my new featured editor thing for this blog and for my Tumblr blog.

I've discovered that there are a lot of amazing editors out there who have barely any subs, and I've noticed that they also don't have many friends.

Just because someone doesn't have tons and tons of friends on YouTube, doesn't mean they aren't any good! They're probably just friends with the people who they actually want to talk to! So, I've decided to feature one editor every month for the entire month and the featured video for all my posts will be a video from them. Every few months, I'll just feature videos that I think are really good that deserve more attention.

For now, I'll be starting with editors who don't have many subs that I think deserve more. As this goes, I know I probably won't feature an editor more than once, so I'll have to begin choosing editors who I think are amazing that might not be 'famous', but don't neccessarily have few subs. So, keep a lookout for my featured editors!

Update of Updates [Auditions/Accounts/Requests]

Alright, he's my huge mother update of all updates. So I hope you guys are reading this, because there's a lot happening.

Spring break is here, which means I have time off from school! Of course, Monday is gone, but I have six more days to relax until I have to go back to school. So, I'm finishing up studio projects and whatnot. That means getting cstar7777's Bad Romance MEP part finished up and making my promo for Miracle of Darkness (into which I was accepted). And ShadowDragon1902 is being a sweetheart and getting me her FFVII:CC clips, because mine don't render. So hallelujah that I'll finally be able to turn in my Wedding Dress MEP part.

Now, onto more important things...

Auditions for Coded Deceptions end on April 14th! We have exactly ten auditions right now, and we're letting in four people. So please, share the video with people! Friends/subscribers/subscriptions, anyone! We really appreciate your support and help.
Also with Coded Deceptions, check out our new forum! http://www.codeddeceptions.sendboard.com I'm still figuring out how to manage a forum and all that - I'll probably have to get lessons from Marc, haha. Kudos to Lau for actually joining the forum. Now we have two members! Just waiting on the last two (Rose and Danny *cough cough*).

Also, hopefully auditions for Tears of Hate will be up soon. So please share on to all your friends who are Phantom Phans! I only know like, three people who love it, and two of them are my co-leaders, haha. So, if you know anyone who likes editing live action footage, we'd really appreciate you sharing on to them. I finished the icon for the channel, and it actually turned out pretty good! I'm currently working on the background, but I'm still figuring out how to import brushes and stuff with my new Photoshop, so maybe I'll be able to get an actual pretty background up (unlike the one I made for Allison - check her channel to see it). Wish me luck! I've never made a background with live action stuff before. And so, I'm opening requests and stuff for backgrounds and icons, since I actually know how to make them, haha. Bring it on! Practice makes perfect. Right now, I only have to do the Coded Deceptions background (since the first one turned out... bleh, hahaha), the Tears of Hate background, and one that I can hack Rose with. It's all right - she already knows I'm going to hack her.

I got a Tumlr account! Much to Kelly's pleasure, that is. I know she really wanted me to get one, so I finally gave it and created an account. It'll have all the same things this account here has, except it'll have all kinds of updates involving my writing - originals and fanfics - so if you feel like following around there, here's the link: http://www.thaliaanderson.tumblr.com. I only have one follower right now, and it's Kelly, hahaha.

Keep your eye out for Zodiac Studios' Aries MEP! It should be up today. I'll edit this post with a link when it comes up.

Just keep breathing,
Thalia

On The Road of Recovery

My hiatus is almost over my friends! And that means I can finally work on all the things I've been dying to work on!

First things first, I actually finished an MEP part! "Everybody Knows..." is the second part in Changing Fantasies first MEP! Parts were due yesterday, I believe, but I don't know of anyone else who actually finished theirs... I find it semi-ironic that I was the one who needed the extension, but I might be the only one who actually finished on time.

I'll post a link to the full MEP once it comes out.

Other than that - Strange Pairing MEP parts are due on the twentieth. Which means I have to figure out my gay Vegas and see how it'll handle my .mp4 OHSHC clips for my Tamaki/Namine pairing. And the Aeries' MEP part for Zodiac! is due the twenty-first, though I have an extension for that as well, which I'll probably most definitely need. Thanks to JJ for actually getting back to me about that - I still don't know what cstar7777 thinks about me not being able to get my part in on time; they never contacted me.

New video series coming up soon!

My new series, "Leslie's Story" will make its appearance soon. I finished the first one shot that goes with the series, so I'll post that up here when the video comes out. I'm really excited for LS, which I don't say about many things I write. So keep an eye out for it!

That's all for now. I have to get off and lay down now. I don't even have time to post my links and stuff.

Just keep breathing,
Thalia

Starting a New Month

Hey everyone, how have you been? I know I'm pretty terrible at finding time to update this thing, but I'll try and be better.

For anyone who follows my little problem story, the reason I haven't been doing much is because of my back. It's not getting better, so hopefully I can go back to the doctor on Friday and get a muscle imbalance test, but if that's not what's wrong, then we'll be at a complete loss. I'm just hoping it's nothing... well, serious.
Plus, now there's this weird lump in my neck/chest area, and we're going to get that checked out as well. Pray that it's nothing serious, all right? I really don't need more problems right now.

Anyway, I'm keeping myself busy with my MEP parts, which I will not tell you about all over again, like I have previously. I'll just tell you about the new stuff (or the stuff I don't remember telling you about before) and any other random update-type crap, with my usual random advertisements at the end.

As a random note, the Wedding Dress MEP for Never Forgetting Memories got extended, mostly because of me, I think, because just as I finished my part on the due date, I went to render it, and none of my Crisis Core clips rendered. So... I sadly discovered that only the all-CG clips from Crisis Core will render in my new Vegas (at least from bluelaguna) and I will have to redownload all of those clips and then exchange the bluelaguna clips for the YouTube clips. Which is alright, because there's a Crisis Core walkthrough in HD lying around somewhere that I can use. Sadly, this will also effect my ability to get in my WORM part for Rose on time, since my pairings were Zack/Yuna and Tidus/Aerith, so I will obviously need those Zack clips. And my pairing for Wedding Dress was Cloud/Aerith/Kadaj, and I really need the in-game clips of Aerith for my awesome-sauce masking that isn't masking, because it's chroma keyer.

You get the gist of it.

Anyway, that also means that I won't be able to do what I originally wanted to for my sub video for you guys (these Zack pairings will all be the death of me), so I'm making something else for all you lovely people. I actually hit a hundred and fifty subscribers (thanks to Darrel's backup account, hah), so I'm trying extra hard to crank something out, especially before the auditions for Lauren and Jess's new studio are over! Sorry it's taken me nearly a hundred more subs to actually make you guys something. I feel terrible!

One of these days... Rose and I will start our awesome collab we have planned... But it's going to have to be when neither of us have anything we have to do, and at the rate we sign up for MEPs, that'll never happen, haha.

ADVERTISEMENTS, YAY.
