Say, whatever happened to the Brutalmoose video on MTV's Next? I tried to find it, but I suddenly can't find it. It wouldn't surprise me if YouTube auto-copyright shenanigans are in place and it just flew under the radar, but on the off-chance something else went down, are you allowed to say it and can you say it?

Unfortunately Viacom recently blocked the Next video because of a Copyright ID match. I haven't requested an appeal yet so there's a chance that it could get put back up, we'll just have to see. Definitely against my wishes, though, the few videos that have been taken down/blocked from my channel have all been because of copyright matches.
Hi Ian!
Hope you are doing well and that June brings lots of joy to you and MJ! Also, happy pride month!!

Looks like your Next video got taken off YouTube. Hope it comes back soon!

Yeahh bummer! We'll see.
I was inspired by your videos and bought a bunch of sold as black VHS tapes. Did not find anything too interesting just a few local commercials and and old news cast from 1993. Do you buy every tape you see or do you pass on some. I saw a few labeled as wedding footage, but thought it was creepy to buy them.

Hey Caleb! I definitely don't buy every tape I come across, some tapes just don't seem like they're worth the investment. I'm not sure that wedding footage would make for a particularly thrilling watch, I'd probably pass on that one as well.
hi, love your brutalfoods videos
k thanks for making them really hope you have a great day

Hey man, I hope you’re doing great. Your videos are really the only ones on YouTube that I have to stop and watch. Every single video is a treat. Also wondering, what’s your favorite fast-food burger place?
Admin Reply by: ian
Thanks Payton!
And wow, that's a tough question. I like different fast-food burgers for different reasons, but the one I end up eating the most is almost definitely Wendy's. It's either Wendy's or McDonalds.

Hi Ian! I just wanted to say that your video style is incredibly unique and fun, it’s the reason I’ve decided to present you with this question. I’m currently in a program at my school that gives me access to camera equipment, premier pro, and all the film equipment I could dream of. I think I’m fine with cameras, but when It comes to editing, I feel like I have a harder time creating what I want. Next year, my capstone project will be a 30 minute short film, and I’m trying to get better at editing so that I can produce something I’m proud of. And although I am always trying to improve my skills, I always feel like I’m working really sluggishly and not producing something that could be such a better product. Do you have any general tips on how to edit more efficiently and just better in general? I know my way around the basics but I’m still relatively amateur and am open to any help.

Hmmm that's tough! When it comes to editing for film, I was taught that the best edits are the ones that go unnoticed. Unless it's intentional, you want to make every cut "feel" normal, and you want to choose shots that the viewer isn't going to be jarred by. But how do you actually learn how to do that? Toughie. Along with watching tutorials and reading books about editing, I'd recommend watching movies/TV shows that are similar in "feel" to the kind of movie you want to make. But instead of watching the movie for fun, really pay attention to the editing of the movie. What edits do you like, and why do you like them? What about the ones you don't like? You don't want to directly lift ideas from another movie or anything, but studying how other people do things is a great way to get inspiration for yourself.
When it comes time to actually edit your film, try not to like... look at it too long? Which I know sounds hard to do. But you need time to look away and rest your eyeballs. Look at a different scene for a while, or a different movie altogether, that way you can look at your own project with fresh eyes. You want to be sure that you're editing it for people that are seeing it for the first time, which can be hard to do when you're looking at it 24/7.
I hope some of these tips were helpful! Like anything, editing is an area that you'll get better with over time, I feel like it's just something you have to do a bunch to develop that inner gut feeling that helps guides you on edits. Best of luck with your short film!

Thank you so much, person! I've delivered MJ a number of pets for you.
Yo Ian! I've been watching your channel ever since 2018, keep up the good work dude!
Just wanted to tell you we love ya Ian. Whenever you drop new videos, all of our plans shut down for the evening because we have to crack beers, grab snacks, and watch. All our love and support to you from 2 fellow Texans (Wylie here),
Marcus and Lorna

You've been a huge inspiration for me to start following my dreams (and growing out my hair) the last couple years. Thanks for doing what you do! 🙂

Hey, Ian! Long time viewer, first time commenter.
Your videos always bring a genuine smile to my face, and have done doubly so this past year. It's absolutely evident you put so much work into your videos, and I enjoy watching so much.
Anyway, just dropping by to say hello from Halifax, Nova Scotia! Have a great day!
P.S. I also left a weird Amazon review in my website link for this post, since I know how much you love reading food reviews.

Thanks for the review link Max haha, what a treat! I'll never see Hi-Chews in the same light again.
Hey, Ian!
Love your Mystery Tapes, Brutalfoods and nostalgic media reviews. My bf and I like to have the TV on as we sleep, so it's a lil tradition to watch a comfort video or two of yours before YouTube autoplay takes over the rest.
Thanks for everything you do and stay awesome!

Hey Ian,
I love your channel and have been watching for numerous years. I just came across a movie on Youtube and thought you may want to check it out. It's a made for TV movie NBC aired once in December of 1999 about Y2K. It's hilariously awful, and I thought that maybe you'd check it out and like to make a video about it. If not, it's definitely worth a watch. The link is: https://youtu.be/a6yy3GtvLBE
Much Love!

Hey thank you for the recommendation Matt!
You still alive Ian?
Admin Reply by: ian
I think so!
Hello,
I really don’t know what to put here, but I love your videos, especially the newest brutalfoods (for future reference, the lunchables deserts taste testing one) it was very chaotic and I loved every second of it. I was a bit worried when you didn’t write an update for this month, but I’m glad to know your alright.
Thanks for reading this, even if it was unfocused.

Hey, Ian! I've been watching your videos for years, but I've never realized you had I website until now. Your videos are like YouTube comfort food and the editing is easily the best out of any channel I've ever watched. Have a nice day and keep up the amazing content!
Ian! Hey! I’ve been watching you since your Freddi Fish collab. I just wanted to say I love what you’ve been doing with the channel. Brutalfoods is awesome and super entertaining; I even watched the Hungry Man video at least 15 times. Something you might want to try concerning brutalfoods is trying different brands of frozen pizzas maybe? like the Beef Showdown but pizza? Just an idea. Anyway, keep it up, I love this.
