June 19 - Visual Effects Bullshit Masterclass
Have you ever seen a film or advert with horrendous 'special effects'? I see it all the time and it upsets me that these so called 'professionals' are unable to use imagination and creativity to conjure up amazing effects. Instead, default generic templates are used.
It's practically an insult to real creative effects designers!
April 2 - Farewell Final Fantasy - What's Next?
As lots of you would already know I left Final Fantasy XI several months ago due to real life constraints.
So now that I will no longer be making videos for FFXI what's next? Well, there will be more games coming along soon. Bioware's KotR MMO, Squenix's new MMO "Rapture". I don't want to be out of practice of making videos when these games are released so I still have a few projects coming up!

Essorance.com goes online!
Hello everyone, it's with great pleasure that I announce the arrival of my own site for me to host videos, news, and much much more for FFXI!
To the left are all the links you will need to find out about the amazing people that help me with my projects and also links to the software I use to create several of my works.
At the top are links to every one of my videos or video series' where you'll be able to read up on notes I had for the video, as well as the latest news on new and upcoming videos.
Essorance.com is not only a place for my work. In the coming weeks and months I am hoping people will submit their works as well; FFXI videos, fan art, fan fiction. Anything fan made and to do with FFXI I would be honoured to host here.
That's it for now. I still have much to work on for the site.
Thanks for visiting!
