I'm leaving no (Infinity) Stone unturned. In this video essay, I try to sort through the specifics of four big criticisms of the Marvel Cinematic Universe: a reliance on the past, a preoccupation with setups, limitations of the genre, and a big action scene to top everything off.

Cinematic Parallels.

I decided to make Uncut Gems more stressful. I'll review it one day, but not any time soon. I have a video in copyright limbo, and I'm developing a really long video essay, so I'm just killing time for now.

Just joking ;)

Part One: Broken. In this six-part video essay, I'll be looking back on my favorite TV show, House. The ups and downs, the good and the bad, and everything in between.

Part 2: Now What ? I think Broken creates a dividing line in House's quality. But why? Let's find out.

Part 3: You Must Remember This *Paging Dr. Woke to the O.R.*

Part 4: Both Sides Now How do the secondary characters stack up across the series?

Part 5: Love Hurts *Paging Dr. Love to the O.R.*

Part 6: Everybody Dies All things come to an end. Thank you for watching. I hope you enjoyed it.

A little behind-the-scenes look at some invisible effects I made for my House video essays. In context, TV credits are perfectly natural. But video essays are all about presenting information. And when you splice separate clips together, a random person's name can be distracting. Most of the time, I can edit around it, but sometimes I need a specific shot. So I have to get creative. (Please refer to me as the David Fincher of Video Essays. Thanks.)

A brief history of the Dolly Zoom, and how this camera technique can be replicated in animation, specifically in The Lion King.
