S1: "stabman"

Video link



I had these spy clips lying around so I might as well make video of them. I know this isn't really high caliber spy gameplay - especially with the facestabs - but it was a video made for fun.



The video title "stabman" is as basic as it gets - the Spy is a man who literally stabs people. Yep.



If you didn't know, almost all of my music choice is deliberate and meticulous. I try to make myself familiar with the source material as to truly embody it and use it well. For example, using a track from Kirby Super Star means that I probably have played it or went out of my way to make myself familiar with the game through research. In this case, I have played Kirby Super Star before, so I may have some sort of spiritual connection to the music. I would like to think my videos carry a part of me with them instead of something lazily thought up as a second thought.



On top of crediting the music tracks themselves (which sketchek and many other content creators in general should do), getting familiar with the source material is the least I can do to show the music respect - as it is much more than a backing track to a video. If you're curious as to why I wasn't crediting videos from Chapters 1 & 2, its was to mimic sketchek's style - which included not crediting music in the description. I even mimicked the tag and category styles - even the channel art and avatar style.



There is no need to mimic him anymore (we know where that leads and he's back anyway) though he has still inspired me in a way. Again, will get into sketchek more when Chapter 2 blogposts come out. Probably also Chapter 3 too.
