So... after nearly three years of development, I think it’s finally time to announce this.
My animated pilot, WOLFSTORY, premieres on YouTube September 30th.

Featuring the incredible voice talents of Miranda Parkin, Damien Haas, Jonah Scott, Weston Koury, Aisha Rae and more

It’s been SO. HARD. To keep this under wraps for the last few years, and I know it’s been just as hard for the incredible team who’ve poured countless hours into bringing this story to life!!

This is the biggest creative project I’ve ever attempted, and something I’ve wanted to make for a veryyyy long time. Every part of the production pipeline has been built from the ground up to tell this story on a truly grand scale and I really believe we’ve created something incredibly special. I’m SO excited for you all to see!!

WOLFSTORY premieres September 30th. Follow @wolfstorytheseries on Instagram for updates 🐺

THE COUNTER-CLAIM WENT THROUGH AND WASTELANDIA IS BACK UP!!! THE EVIL CODY JAMES HAS BEEN DEFEATED

As some of you might have noticed, my animated pilot Wastelandia has been taken down by a false copyright claim by someone called 'Cody James'. See below for the insane reason it was taken down, like are we being fr rn 😭 I truly don't understand how a claim like this can go through since it's so blatantly false- there's no evidence of any book existing that uses my pilot's dialogue or the location Wastelandia (sorry, my bad- I mean Watelandia) The pilot is 100% my own content, me and the team worked so hard on it and I really poured my heart into it so this is pretty gutting. I've submitted a counter claim and have yet to hear back, but if it doesn't go through I'll be forced to take legal action.
I'll keep you guys updated! :'D i love the copyright system on this site i feel so normal right now :]

Important update post!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 1 MILLION VIEWS ON WASTELANDIA!!
I never thought an animation I directed would ever reach that!! Making this pilot was such a wonderful experience and I’m so grateful I got to work alongside so many talented artists I look up to :D

While I’m immensely proud of what we all made and I love these weird animal guys a lot, I wanted to make this update post to say that I will be shelving the Wastelandia project for now. I hope to return to it in the future but due to a few different factors I think it’s best for me to move onto new projects for the time being. I’m really grateful for a lot of the constructive criticism I got on the pilot, it was my first indie animation and I hope to keep learning and improving with each new project :)
Thank you all so much for watching, and a special thank you to all those who have created fanart, posted on the subreddit, tagged me in Wastelandia memes etc. It genuinely warmed my heart and made my day, you guys are awesome and I hope you’ll stick around for the creative projects I have planned in the future! I’m currently working on a short fake horror game project for fun and starting work on another animated pilot so keep your eyes out for those :))

Also I know I never hop on and just like, talk straight to the camera about the channel BUT I’m gonna do that soon in a little update video thing just talking about some changes in upload schedule and videos that I wanna make going forward, so when you see a thumbnail of me with some dramatic af title like ‘we need to talk.’ don’t worry it’s not an apology video lmao

Thanks so much for reading, and hope you all have an amazing day!!!!! :)

Just wanted to talk about the recent OS-Tan video!
I want everyone to know that I've seen the comments and responses to the video, and I greatly appreciate the feedback- a lot of inaccuracies have been pointed out , as well as a general lack of knowledge on the topic, and that's not the standard of content I ever want to put out!
I love covering things I'm passionate about, but I also like researching new topics that I don't know about but fascinate me, and that's what I wanted to do with that video- but it definitely didn't come off the right way, and presenting it as a deep dive wasn't the right way to go as I wasn't knowledgable enough. I don't want this channel to be seen as one who would just put out a video thoughtlessly with misinformation- sometimes I do get things wrong, which is okay, but from your feedback I can see this video just really missed the mark.

I also saw a lot of comments that said the video had a weird tone that came off as rude or judgemental, or that I wasn't interested in the topic, which is absolutely not the case and it hurts to hear that one of my videos came off like that. I do like to laugh and poke fun at how weird and silly the internet and it's various corners can be, but I never ever want it to come across as mean or judgy, and I'm disappointed in myself that my script and tone could even come across like that.

I also wanted to bring up uncredited art that was featured in the video. As an artist myself I genuinely care a lot about adding artist credit where possible and have always included it- this video featured a ton of uncredited fanart due to a slight miscommunication with the editor during the editing process, and due to having deadlines I had to post it without adding the appropriate credits- again this is 100% on me, and is another large reason I want to take this video down. It’s not okay and I will absolutely do better. Going forward I am communicating the importance of including credits with everyone I work with and making sure to check that they’re all added (except for instances of older Internet art where it’s difficult to find a source/usernames have been changed/accounts deleted etc)

Lastly, I want to address a few comments I saw blaming the drop in quality on me getting a "team" and even "stepping away from the channel" - for context, the team in question consists of two epic editors who (obviously) edit the videos, and an amazingly talented researcher who compiles information, sources, links, ideas, etc,,, for some videos. I still research my own videos in between working with her, and I write all of them myself as I've always done. Everyone I work with is so, SO talented and wonderful- at the end of the day it's my channel and my videos, and if there are ever any errors it's because *I* didn't do my due diligence writing the final script. My point is, I haven't "stopped working on this channel" and any messes here are 100% on me, please don't drag anyone else into it!

I currently have a contract with the sponsor of that video for 6 months, so unfortunately it must remain up until that expires- once it does, I'll be removing the video as that's just not the standard of video I want to put out. I greatly appreciate everyone's feedback- it genuinely helps me to learn and grow and make better videos, so thank you :) Apologies that the video must remain up for a while, but in the meantime hopefully this post explains what's going on.

Thank you to everyone for reading, have an awesome end of your year :) -Izzy

hi hiii!!! just wanna drop in with a general channel update :D
Animation for my pilot Wastelandia is almost fully completed, and I have an actual estimated date for release!!! It should (if everything goes according to schedule) be out in August :3 SO YAYY VERY SOON!!! I'm sosososo excited to show you guys what we've been working on!!! 8)

I'm actually going to be moving countries in September (srry NZ), so I want to apologize in advance as my video output may be a little slower over the next few months! I usually put out 2 videos per month and I'm going to try my best to stick to that, but there definitely may be some gaps in the schedule while we move and find a place (which is very hectic!) :'D Just wanted to give a heads up so you don't think I've just disappeared :P I have some really fun video topics I'm working on/planning out atm, so even if they take a little longer hopefully they'll be enjoyable!
Thanks so much for the support as always, you guys are awesome and see you in August for pilot timeee :DD
