If you have free time, I'd rather you had more time to record more scripts. Editing takes a loooong time.

I don't think that's him. He's known to be an extremely private person.

Hey man it's no problem, I do it all the time. I could do it for money. I don't. But I could.

How about I try editing the first video, and if I feel as though I can do it, I'll keep going. Of course having other editors and voice worker would be nice to get more things done.

All I need are guidelines on what has to be done.

Sure. We'll try to have some images ready once audio is done.

I know that we'll have a few images from forum posts, but are we gonna get some stock photos? I guess we'll get them through patreon support.
Oh yeah, and you were being sarcastic a bit in your post to Benatar (not a bad thing). I'm just saying.

We might get some stock photos, we'd have to see how much they cost. I'm not sure what the rules are for subscription stock photo sites.

Sure, and sarcasm is good, but the tone was just a little over the top.

In that last clip the pronunciation is all good, but it seems like the volume is going in and out. Are you getting closer and father from the mic?
Not sure if it's easy to fix in audio editing or not. Can you try to even it out in Audacity or something?

Well TheVeganAtheist uses stock photos. Is it possible to borrow from him? Or we still have to pay for them?
They are fairly expensive. I'll probably throw a few bucks in.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It's a pretty easy fix if done right though, so I'll give it a shot.
here's a fixed version: https://vocaroo.com/i/s1mAlOX8fxZk

I don't think we can borrow from TVA, I think we'd need a subscription.

We can make a thread about it and look at the different places. It would be nice to get stock footage so it's not just a slideshow.

The fixed version sounds better. Still a little odd, but I'm sure it's fine. Not many people would notice.

It would be great if you can chip in. Maybe I should add the stock subscription as the second milestone?

Alright, I can do that. I'll put it in the Forum Support as well.
It sucks we can't just pull stuff from Google Images. Damn Copyright Laws.

Yeah, I noticed it, and it's kinda bugging me. I'll tweak it slightly more.

Yeah man, I think that'll help.
But yeah, I have way more money than I know what to do with after working over the summer, so I'll be willing to help out. I'm planning on donating about 25-30 bucks a month on Patreon, maybe more (that's pennies a day!). That's about 300-360 bucks a year, but I'll be sure to put money on my account monthly. My grandfather also gives me 20 bucks a week just for breathing, since he also has a superfluous amount of money, so it won't be an issue. I'll be sure to put money on my account within by next week.
