As you can tell by the constantly updated website, I'm slowing building myself back together. Recently, I made the not-so-difficult choice to resign from one of my paying jobs and keeping the other to make time for myself, my social life and of course making content. With the resignation of my morning and weekend retail gig (in which I regret applying there in the first place), I have more time getting back to making content with the free time I'm having, plus I miss having free weekends. So what's to come...? As I continue to progressing back to my regularly scheduled productivity time, there will be allot of changes in and outside ADTC Productions. In regards to my content, I'll just be working one video at a time and the same goes for any current and future collaborations. TRIBALCHILD TV SEASON 3 The very long-overdue two episodes to close out TRIBALCHILD TV's third season: The DragonBall Z Double Movie Review and the Kill la Kill Review. I'm currently working on the DBZ Double Movie Review as you're reading this blog. You can follow the progress on the reorganized Updated Releases page (in which I'll explain in detail below). My current plan is too release both episodes on Patreon and a week after on YouTube before the end of August so I can go ahead and start production on the fourth season. TRIBALCHILD TV Season 4 As stated in my Chage of Plans blog from March, the episode that were originally going to be in the third season will be pushed back to season four, in which is slated for later in the fall of this year. In addition to the five of the seven episodes there will be new episodes including some new reactions, my review of the first (and, for the time being, the only) season of the hit anime One Punch Man, and a 3-part review of the 2016 summer movies. For information in the coming weeks. ADTC Website's New Look and Pages If you haven't look thoroughly at the newly-designed ADTC Website, I made several changes in addition to the new look as well as the new and improved Upcoming Releases.. As you can see here, rather than having estimated release dates for all upcoming content like I did in the past, you can now see what project I'm currently working on. When the video is at 100% completion, it'll now have a day on when it'll be posted on my Patreon page follow by a YouTube version a week after. As always, the release day of each of my content can change at anytime so keep it lock into the ADTC Productions website and on social media for details.
And How am I doing? Honestly, I never felt better. After making some much need arrangements with my sources of income which leads to some much need free time, it feels like a huge weight has been lifted on my shoulders. For all my fans and supporters that stuck by me during this season-long hiatus, I thank you once again for you patience. I feel like I let you all down and willing to go from Hell to high water to make it all up to you. I am just thankful for things slowing getting back to normal. And why mess up a good thing? That's all for now. Stay tuned for more updates in the coming days. Until then, keep it lock!

Three months has passed since Fine Bros. Entertainment took a massive blow with the announcement of React World in which resulted in the loss over 250,000 subscribers on YouTube. With the brothers trademarking their "React" brand and the React World program itself, in which let's viewers grant content creators the license to create their own versions of the React shows), fans of the once-popular channel did not take it too well. After weeks Bennie and Ralf Fine doing damage control, apologizing, and even discontinuing the React World (in which let's viewers grant content creators the license to create their own versions of the React shows), the damage was already done. While thing's at Fine Bros. Entertainment are seem to be "back to normal," the scars from their damaged reputation remains. Despite the backlash, The Fine Bros. YouTube Channel still have over 13 million subscribers. Looking back to the FBE's fall from grace back in January back when React World was announced, I understand the anger of most viewers as far as copyrighting "React" and rumored lawsuits, but was the negative feedback really justifiable? In my honest option, I believe what hit FBE the hardest was the copyright the term "React" and the overreaction (no pun intended, by the way) of the YouTube audience as well as content creators who make reaction videos. Probably the biggest misconception is that with React World and the copyright situation, FBE want to make the reaction format as their own. The reality is, that the copyright only applies to the "React" Brand (Teens React, Elders React, etc.), not to take over or shut down reaction videos as their own. And what's worst, any content that FBE released after React World was announced was slammed with a high number of dislikes (by bitter former FBE viewers and mostly internet trolls). In other words, FBE's only intention was to own the intelliculal property rights of their "React" brand and not reaction videos as a format. After discontinuing React World and voluntarily resigned the "React" trademarks, the content and support slowly gain back to normal for The Fine Bros. but possibly will never regain it's once-popularity. We live in the society where we use to internet to attack (or in this case, troll), anyone and anything behind a computer. While the FBE hate come to no surprise, neither does the hate they've received without even "getting over it." Like celebrities, politicians and known fighters, internet personalities, including the content creators on YouTube, will received backlash in one way or the other. Some take the logical route and stop supporting them all together, while many others send out petty hate just out of spite or just to troll at their expense. While Benny and Ralf are at fault for not making the now-defunct React World clear to its viewers and supporters, there are other things to be angry about. Who what do you all think? Does the Fine Bros. deserve another change? Are you over the React World debacle? Or is it really the case of guilty until proven guilty? I want to read your thoughts in the comments... The last five years as a content creator for ADtheTribalChild Productions has been one hell of a journey. Not the most "smooth sailing" of journeys mind you, but a journey nonetheless. I honestly though I'd be burned out making YouTube videos at the half way point. Initially, I started making videos as a hobby back in my college years and when MySpace was a "thing."
Before graduating from Cincinnati State, my younger brother El introduced me to YouTube. After making vlogs on MySpace and eventually Facebook, I decided to give YouTube a shoot under the name "DreadZeppelin1" (the number was included due to the name was taken by the reggae-skit Led Zeppelin cover band of the same name). Then boredom kicked in and took down the channel after only a year, but I didn't stop making videos though. Fast forward to 2010, long after I graduated from college and burned out from MySpace, I've been watching more and more YouTube videos. At the time, I was amaze of how much original content there are that isn't a movie/TV clip or AMV. After much though, I decided to open another YouTube account under ADtheTribalChild and there it began with my first series, TRIBALCHILD TV. Normally, this is the part where I say "and the rest is history." Turns out, I learned allot from becoming a content creator and it takes more than just making a video with a camera and call it a day. I learned from the videos I watch of the tool of the trade in making videos like using a video editing software, how to edit and balance sounds, adding my own overlays and effects and that's just name a few. I also had a chance to work with some talented content creators including Steven Page (Balena Productions), TheDragonSuperfan (formally TheDragonSuperman), William Smith (Sonic the Ghetto-Hog Productions), Coodoo17, Richard Hunter (DJ U.N.C.L.E.), Lawrence Glimer (LG) and many others. Eventually, I've been recruited to the "best network in the league," The Dynasty Network, and I owe them plenty to help spread the world of ADTC Productions. Despite personal problems and working between two jobs, it hasn't been an easy road for me especially as of late. Still, if I can turn back time to when I starting making video blogs to meeting and networking great people to setting many milestones on my YouTube channel, I would not change a thing. That said, thanks to my friends, networking partners, collaborators, viewers and subscribers who stick with me for the past five years of my YouTube journey. Here's to another 5 years. Cheers! Lately, I've been looking into more ways to spread the word of ADTC Productions. With the help from the Dynasty Network, my YouTube channel and website is growing slowly but steadily. It's why I'm currently looking to self-promotion by means of interviews, a guest appearance or voice work outside my YouTube channel, or making a local public appearance (only in the Cincinnati, OH/Tri-State Area). If any content creator or promoter is interested in me taking part in any of the above, e-mail ADTC Productions at [email protected] with the subject "booking" or "inquiry". Be sure to leave me a detailed message about the promotion, appearances, etc.
That is all for now... |
