Awesome!!! I was already working on writing a few video essays with heavy animation elements.

I have a side channel prepped for it and everything, I just need to get the ball rolling. I want to prepare sufficiently and actually have a few months worth of daily shorts ready before uploading the first video essay, though.

To save time on animation, I was going to build the background environments in Minecraft and then port them into Blender, where I’d use grease pencil to draw in the characters and import external sources (such as data, quotes, and charts) to back my claims.

So for example, when I start a section related to education, the animation would take place in a public school or university.

I was hoping to come to hexbear for peer review and critique from other LGBTQ+ people during the writing process for my video essay, “A Calm Explanation of Transgender People.” I want to make sure that what I write accurately represents our community, and is educational without being inflammatory to the target audience for that video–people who genuinely don’t understand the trans community but are willing to learn if the person explaining is patient enough to answer questions.

Basically, the kind of video that would have done me a lot of good back when I was an egg who didn’t know I was autistic.

If that does well, then ideally, I’ll have enough traction to get a nonprofit legal group going, to protect Americans relying on the Health Insurance industry for healthcare.
