Protagony 2: Joi (rough cut)
Added 2020-02-29 18:20:39 +0000 UTCHey team! Here's the rough cut of Protagony 2.
It's temp audio because the day I was planning to record final audio was really windy and a tree was banging on my window the whole time. I've rephrased one or two bits of the script since this was recorded. There's also a little big of graphics work I wanna do still, but nothing major. And there's some brief nudity that I'm debating whether I should blur, age-gate the video, or just run the risk that a 15-year-old might see bubs. But, all in all, this more or less what the finished product will be like.
I'm much happier with the pacing, flow, and structure of this. I've rewritten and re-recorded the Abed script to be of a similar length, and it's feeling a lot better as well.
So what I'm thinking is: we'll call this video February's video (which I guess will make it Protagony 1 now...), and I'll work on finishing up the Abed video in March in tandem with the next Alt-Right Playbook, and hopefully get both of them online before April. Sound good?

Loved this, and I think I second the suggestion of blurring the bubs. Not worth risking demonitization, and leaving them visible plays in to the objectification that you're criticizing, no?

Know a few people who would benefit from hearing about this, from ladies who will feel seen, to dudes who are used to having the illusion of agency and might be resistant to the message, but who will benefit from exposure to the ideas :)

2020-03-02 21:01:07 +0000 UTCi really like the stuff you said about capitalism and agency! it, like a lot of good theory, rang as decidedly true as soon as i’d heard it

2020-03-01 02:54:46 +0000 UTCI'd go with a blur. The message is kind of more important that arguable titillation even as commercially sterile as this.
2020-02-29 21:45:37 +0000 UTC...heck. That's really powerful. I did not expect the angle you took on it, but it sure the heck fits.
