What would you prefer?
🕑 Added 2025-10-29 09:19:44 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure the answer is gonna be the quicker & less edited option, but I figured I'd check with y'all before I went ahead and changed how I did things.
So long story short, I realised I could get Patreon cuts up a fair bit quicker (and in advance) if I work off of the rough cuts my editors do instead of the fully refined cuts. The rough cuts are usually done a few days before another editor does a refining edit. If I made Patreon cuts out of the rough cuts, I could do them as soon as the initial edits are done.
What this would mean is that they would be a lot less edited overall, but still have all of the actual content I'm saying in them. Effectively they'd not have crop-ins or zooms, and bits where I talk would just be basic editing with jump cuts and static shots.
I assume most of y'all would prefer that because it means you'd get content earlier than YouTube, but I wanted to make sure I had the right idea! So feel free to vote...

y'know, it's funny because this idea came from my girlfriend who is also a patron for some other reactors & she was just like "you're doing too much, people would much prefer have it this way" lmao

I mean I’m used to at least two other reactors who literally just post the raw, uncut reaction and add the video/movie/show on the screen, and a group reaction channel who do the same (though adding some merch info on the side and adding a background) but only cut when any of them have to do something (though sometimes they don’t cut and we get all the dialogue). So minimal editing is on par with what I’m used to lmao
