AUTHOR'S NOTE
Hey again everyone! Thanks for all your support on the last video :) I'm still getting the hang of the video editing aspect of these video essays, but I think you'll see improvements between this and the last one. By the next, I hope to be a bit more comfortable and thus more dynamic with the visuals.
Thx again,
-Jay
