REport: Filming Funkin'... NO JOKE!

Yes, the Friday Night Funkin' musical is REAL! I know a few of you out there were concerned that it was just an April Fools' Day joke, but here's actual footage from the filming that took place over the weekend! We would've shared this REport earl...

HeyJ, everyone! Super sorry to leave you in the dark about some of the massive changes going on (we literally were deciding several within the past 48 hours!)

We concluded, thanks in part to The Stupendium sharing some rough metrics with us...

REport: Channel Changes Planned

HeyJ, team. Got an update for you all as to where things are headed with RE. This week will move forward as normal, but the rest of March will be likely affected. Thank you all for your support and understanding while we do our best to continue ma...

REport: Late Musicals Get a C+

HeyJ, everyone! Bad news: we've fallen behind on production this week and are going to need an extra week to get our Animal Crossing sea shanty together. ;_; Check out the video for more details (and a little comparison of its music, which has got...

REport: Welcome Back, Baby!

HeyJ, everyone! Excited to give you the next bread crumb along on our trail of progress! It's not the next episode everyone's been waiting for, but I think it's a good start toward the bigger things we've had sidelined so long. We're blitzing stra...

REport: Baby's Getting Back!

HeyJ, everyone! We're working on a little micro-set and an updated costume for next Friday's FNAF-inspired video, but I swear there's more happening still behind the scenes! Thanks for sticking with us through the slowest part of the year while we...

REport: WHO MADE THIS MESS?!

HeyJ, guys! Here's an update from on set of FRUIT NINJA: THE MUSICAL! And yeah, even Southern California gets pretty chilly (particularly at this time of year!) We ended up with snow flurries once we wrapped filming for the night!

Patrons wh...

REport: The Great Katana Test

HeyJ, everyone! One quick update for you all: we've started getting some props in for FRUIT NINJA: THE MUSICAL... but one big problem we might face is how to -actually- cut through fruit... Our katana is more a replica than, er, a functioning inst...

HeyJ, everyone! Thanks for all your kind feedback after the last (very long) REport. As you can see, we chose a project and moved forward, and we're expecting to have a lot of fun with it. We did see all your suggestions as well, though, and are c...

REport: What Are We Doing?

HeyJ, everyone. This is a rather long and rambly REport, so let me give you the summary: we don't know what we're making still, and we're struggling to make much headway, as 2020 took a lot more out of us than we could have imagined. But month-lon...

REport: On Set AGAIN... with Granny!

REport: Grouchy Goombas and their Three Day Lyric Session!

HeyJ team. We're extremely burned out from this project already, and I'm sorry we're not hiding it a little better... ^^; This one's taking a bigtime toll, but after filming this, we put in a few more hours and got it all mostly sorted. That means...

REport: Secret PATREON PRIZES!

HeyJ, guys! Since it's been a hot minute and we covered a bit of ground in this, let's recap:
