Greetings, encounterers! As you may already know, we filmed our next musical (based on parts of FNAF: Security Breach) over the weekend! I know Gwen shared a few sneak peak images on her social medias, but here's your first complete look at the co...

HeyJ, everyone! Thanks for your patience waiting on an update. I hope you’re all excited to see us back in production on something FNAF-related (even though this set certainly doesn’t appear very PizzaPlex inspired… 🤔)
We haven’t ...

HeyJ, team! We’re back with a bit of an update… actually, a couple. As noted, some of the details are overdue, but I’m glad for the chance to keep you looped in. I know you’d probably like updates on more of FNAF‘s progress, and I assure...
2022-07-16 09:13:09 +0000 UTC View PostHeyJ, everybody! We haven't done something like this in a long time, but we'd like to offer an opportunity for our Patreon supporters of any tier to come participate in a live Q&A on Saturday, July 30th, starting at 5PM PT. Since this event is...

HeyJ, everybody! Sorry for the lack of updates lately (but I hope you all had a nice holiday here in America, too!)
This video covers a few current things going on, but just to touch back on a bit I discuss at the end, we're re-examining our...

Howdy, doods! Just wanted to you give you all this REport before we head out for VidCon! While we're busy packing tonight, last night we were filming some final pickup shots so that we can send a rough cut over to NIS for approvals/notes. Here's h...

HeyJ, team! Welcome to the set of our upcoming music video -- you know, that top secret sponsored one we've been putting together for MONTHS for the launch of DISGAEA 6: COMPLETE EDITION! Nate caught us all rehearsing a little dance routine that t...

HeyJ, crew! We were visited by ROYALTY yesterday (no, not Mr. Meowse), and thought we’d share a couple minutes with you all. 😄 We’re closing in on our shooting date, so expect an on-set update pretty soon!
Beard Salute!

HeyJ, crew. We wanted to drop you a line (our first of our 11th year online!) to show some of our progress on the forthcoming, ever-expanding Disgaea musical!
I also got an update from our Singachu animator that she’s officially on the fin...

HeyJ, everybody. Can we ask your opinion real quick? Our merch site is almost ready, but we’re pretty torn about which photos to use.
We have a meeting with our Disgaea partners tomorrow, by the way, and will update you where it stands som...

HeyJ, team! I thought this was a little too cool not to run camera on. 😂 We don’t normally do cast reads (especially this late at night!), but since we’re sending over our full script and lyrics for approval tomorrow, I wanted to get a bett...

HeyJ, everyone. Never fear, the Gwenperor's clothes aren't imaginary -- just new.
We're working hard on this Disgaea musical, which is taking a little extra attention because it's turning out BIGGER than we'd intended (or... budgeted for...)...

HeyJ, team! First, an apology: I didn’t cry NEARLY enough about our project delay in this video, so any apologies we made were essentially worthless. At least FAKE CRY, right? 😭
Anyway, yes, sadly, there won’t be a musical out this mo...

HeyJ, team! Thanks for being patient throughout another slooooow week — I think the next one will be a bit more exciting!
We have one more scene for this project still coming together (besides this live action sequence I referred to,) and ...

HeyJ, everyone! We promised a little explanation about our reluctance to make a Poppy Playtime musical and here it is. TL;DR, this is an old video dispute come back to haunt us, accompanied by a business track record that's strained and untrustwor...

HeyJ, everyone. We didn't update you last week because we weren't sure what we were working on exactly. We do now, though plans are always subject to change (especially if deadlines and due dates move). Our lunch meeting literally started with Son...

HeyJ, everyone! Here's a new update -- we've changed ideas again and are pushing forward on something COMPLETELY different. I feel like that happens a lot around here... The whiplash is real, but at least it's a series we think deserves a little 1...

It's been a hot minute, but we've finally got an update on what's been happening behind the scenes (in summary: plenty, but all of it far from concrete or even actionable). We're disappointed by slow progress and are sure you are, too, but thanks ...

HeyJ guys, I kinda didn't plan this one out very well. But in true REport/AJ fashion, we rambled our way into a kindof legit REport. We'll think through a better update for you later this week! BTW, for Card-Carrying Encounterers, your cards have ...
