starlings | A Very Necessary Update haha {AVA} @crystallinemelody | Uploaded June 2016 | Updated October 2024, 4 minutes ago.
Okokok this a vERY needed update video so I'm going to put a kinda directory thing here:

1) My plans for editing and why I haven't been editing
2) 1000 subscriber plan I guess lmao
3) Reopened studio auditions
4) MEP audio updated links
okok let us begin

1) Due to recent events consuming my time, I somehow developed a weird Editor's block from those events, and even when I tried to edit, I'd never end up making meaningful progress. I'm getting back into thE ZONE now, and I'm going to try to finish overdue parts, parts due in July, and my own projects now that my editor's block is mostly, if not completely lifted rn.

2) I know I usually don't celebrate subscriber counts bc I feel like drawing that much attention to my number of subscribers would eventually lead to me determining my own worth by my sub count (I don't have anything against people who make subscriber specials), but 1000 is a crazy number and I've lowkey wanted to do a Q&A, so I'm using the opportunity to open one lmao. You can ask anything as long as you don't ask for my address or anything like that (If I get a question that I find too personal, I'm going to omit it). So if you want to ask me about fandoms (My favorite/least favorite characters or pairings from certain fandoms, my opinions on fandoms, etc.), the production aspect of editing (I will give legit tutorials if you can explain the effect you want to learn properly, my opinions on my own videos, etc.), the social aspect of editing (my opinion on things that have happened in the editing community, my version mep hosting and/or mep joining etiquette, etc.), or anything else you can think of that as I said earlier, isn't something personal like my address or my phone number. I won't set a specific limit on how many questions you can ask, but I'm probs going to end up having to timestamp all the questions, so try to somewhat spare my sorry soul. You can leave your question(s) in the comments or if you have a question that you don't want me to know you asked, I made a google forms thing where you can anonymously leave questions: goo.gl/forms/sZGlqaQGR7BlDjSF3
(This Q&A does not apply to Em so don't ask Em questions unless Em invades this desc and says he'll answer things which I doubt will happen so)

3) My studio, SorrowfulMelodyStudio, has open auditions right now! It isn't a sweep audition, so anybody who hasn't left SMS since the first auditions doesn't need to do anything. You can audition here: youtube.com/watch?v=mR27aP_vTzM

4) I've updated all my MEP signups (including SMS) to show which parts I have downloaded and which I don't (If you sent me a dl link, there's I chance I never got around to it bc I'm a wreck lmao). If I haven't marked you as finished and you are finished or I put down that I don't have your part downloaded, I'd appreciate if you could send me your finished parts so I have everything together (kind of, at least)
My informal little MEP signup playlist ;) : youtube.com/watch?v=6q5mUxMAHQ4&index=1&list=PLF4vcxaR1S6xPCuLiKIniimsTD1dKMb7T
Now for audio (people who see this early won't see the links immediately bc I'd rather have audio links be unavailable for a bit in order for people to be able to get all the info on here earlier. also people who want audio for Disturbia or Harlem should contact me somewhere else bc I'm considering cancelling Disturbia and I'm not all that concerned with Harlem yet):
