REport: The French Connection 🇫🇷

HeyJ, team! Thanks for waiting patiently for a new update from us. I admit, productivity’s dipped briefly to allow for a few personal things, but there’s still plenty of progress to share! We have a strong calendar ahead, including some more f...

REport: A New CAMeo

HeyJ, Encounterers! This will be a light SPOILER REport for Friday's video. If you don't want to know anything -- even mild story beats or cast details -- skip over this until you can watch TAKING BACK FAZBEAR'S later this week.

For e...

REport: The Long Lost REport

Let's be honest, there's probably a couple of these at this point... HeyJ, ya'll! We found some interesting files today while working on the edit, and it seemed to merit an update (especially since one of those files WAS an update!)

So far a...

REport: Thanks For Helping Me! 👷

HeyJ, crew! Yes, you’re my crew today, and we have some import set (de)construction to attend to before Saturday’s shoot! I know the new set doesn’t look like much yet, but it’ll be great once we get lights, actors, and maybe a hint of fog...

REport: We Forgot About Bonnie!

HeyJ, everyone! The next episode of FNAF: The Musical is still underway, though there's a lot to do still... A lot's happened in the past week that slowed progress, unfortunately, but I don't think it'll keep us from launching on time still. We kn...

REport: Missing FNAF Footage Revealed

HeyJ, squad! No doubt you’ve been curious to know more about that infamous scene we screwed up and had to reshoot… which we then lost all the footage for! 😂 You’ll get to see it up close in TAKING BACK FAZBEAR’S in a few weeks, but here...

REport: Back With a BonBon!

HeyJ, ya'll! Just a quick update video featuring some of your little old furry friends. They're back out for a little filming -- nothing too advanced (hopefully...), but we're also moving into the sound and music portion of the next episode, which...

REport: This Is NOT The Wedding We Are Looking For...

HeyJ, everyone! This week hasn't gone according to plan whatsoever, but we're making the most of it and will have a healthier, more productive update for you next week! In the meanwhile, I'd like to say three more quick things:

1) I definite...

REport: The Work Continues!

HeyJ, ya'll! It's so REFRESHING to update you IMMEDIATELY after dropping a big video! ALMOST AS REFRESHING AS A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP (which I promise I enjoyed last night!)

It was great catching up on Discord with you all after, and we've real...

REport: Shadows of Agony is TOMORROW!

HeyJ, squad! First off, thank you all for the kind birthday wishes I’ve been getting! ☺️ It meant a lot to feel so loved, even though I haven’t had time to really celebrate this year. Thanks for making it special!

Secondly, sorry for...

REport: The Only Win Condition

HeyJ, everyone! Another late night REport coming at you from a sleepless production office... This week's been full of ups and downs, and we've been hesitant to share any updates because we weren't-- I mean, STILL AREN'T -- sure what to say about ...

REport: Shady Bear Business!

HeyJ, team! Let me start by apologizing for the crazy color and lighting on this REport -- apparently I need to take camera clips into editing before uploading them (or at least on this occasion, I needed to!)

Let me also double down, unfor...

REport: NO MORE SCREENS!

HeyJ, team! Let's start with the good news: all those stacks of trading cards are currently in the mail, so if you supported us at a trading card tier back in June (forever ago!), your perks for that month are finally on the way! July's cards have...

REport: 80 FX Remain

HeyJ, crew! Got a little update for you from behind the scenes of Shadows of Agony… We actually have a little pick-up filming to do this week, so perhaps will grab a little REport footage then as well.

Beard Salute!

~AJ

REport: Shadows of Agony Sneak Peek

HeyJ, humans! Thanks for waiting on us to deliver an update -- we've been a little scrambled since last time, but the Shadows of Agony checklist grows shorter every day! We're excited to share a little of the footage, which may give you a taste of...

REport: Who Sings Shadows of Agony???

⚠️ SLIGHT SPOILERS FOR SHADOWS OF AGONY IN THIS VIDEO! ⚠️

HeyJ, everyone! We thought we’d be back with an update sooner, but things snagged up pretty good partway through last week… It’s been resolved since, thankfully! ...

REport: Dawn of the Final Day

HeyJ, crew! We’re wrapping up the finishing touches for Friday’s launch of FNAF: DARK REMAINS and wanted to give you both a status update and a sneak peek at one of the scenes. 🙂 There will be plenty of warning beforehand for anyone avoidin...

REport: THE ALIENS ARE HERE! 👽

HeyJ, team! Nate’s away this weekend, but Gwen and I are still hard at work preparing for DARK REMAINS’ release next Friday! It’s come so far… We hope you enjoy it a ton!

As a reminder, FNAF: Dark Remains will debut at 5PM Pacific (N...

REport: Glitchwrapped!

HeyJ, ya’ll! Last REport was a bit of a doozy, so I’ve got some light, fun news this time: we’ve officially wrapped Glitchtrap actor Casey Dwyer at last! It was no small feat, either: Glitchtrap has an astonishing 30 pages of script througho...

REport: You Called It 🫣

HeyJ, friends! I guess you all know us well enough to not be surprised by this announcement, but we still wanted to provide you a little more context. This extra time will primarily translate to much better sound, particularly in regards to backgr...

REport: The Ultimatum You Never Got

HeyJ, team! Whoo… it’s been intense lately! 🥵 We didn’t mean to keep you all in the dark (remains), but it’s been hard to decide what can be shared (both due to spoilers and scheduling.) This isn’t how we’d hoped to release the ser...

REport: The Spreadsheet of DoOoOm! 😱

HeyJ, pals! Been a, uh… rough couple days since we last updated you… 😬 With a FNAF deadline breathing down our necks and THREE more episodes planned to come, we’re struggling a bit to stay above water, but we’re still on track for a ver...

REport: ANOTHER Network?!

HeyJ, team! We’re in the midst of switching over to a new YouTube partner, which is generally stressful but also somewhat exciting! I know we swore off networks in the past, but this one is more music-oriented. In fact, they work with several of...

REport: Birthday & FNAF Incoming!

Greetings, encounterers! Our BIRTHDAY LIVESTREAM is less than 24 hours away, so here's us getting ready for it a few days ago! 😅 Also featured in this REport (and probably more interesting than livestreaming tech) is your first preview of one o...

REport: FNAF is NEXT!

HeyJ, everyone! Sorry for the silence lately. We actually filmed this REport before all leaving on vacation (to multiple destinations, no less!), but I wanted to edit one or two misleading details out of this update before posting it. There's alre...

Patreon exclusive Discord chat after THAT'S NOT MY NEIGHBOR premiere!

HeyJ, everyone! Just letting you know that we'll be hopping onto our Patreon-exclusive voice server tomorrow after our new THAT'S NOT MY NEIGHBOR musical premieres! From roughly 12:30 - 1:30pm Pacific, we'll be hanging out on Discord to discuss th...

REport: Remember When Malcolm Was Here?

Greetings, encounterers! Remember when Malcolm was here a few weeks ago? Well apparently we filmed this REport with him showing off the set after we filmed the recently released TEASER for That's Not My Neighbor: The Musical. Unfortunately, we com...

REport: This Costume is Ruined

HeyJ, everyone! Sorry for the sparse updates, but we're back with an update from filming the next Random Encounters musical, and we've even got a guest star or two! We drafted our friends David and Kaela King for our 'That's Not My Neighbor' music...

FOR PATREON EYES ONLY: Yoga Challenge Judging

As promised, here's some short clips of our various yoga poses from this Friday's challenge video! Let us know in the comments below or send us a message here on Patreon telling us who YOU think performed each of the poses best! You'll be deciding...

REport: Perfectly Normal Box of Hands

Greetings, encounterers! We've got a challenge video coming out this week, so here's a little behind the scenes of us filming it. Though, to be honest, it's after we filmed it and mostly involves me playing with a box of little fake hands. Keep yo...
