Hey All! Just wanted to give a quick channel update! TL:DR, Keystone Wilds is now a biweekly series!

As you likely have noticed, uploads have slowed down a fair bit (biweekly from weekly). I really do hate to have to slow down the content, however, it ultimately was necessary to avoid both burnout as well as limit stress.

Normally I’m the kind of person to say “just power through” in these scenarios, and realistically this mindset isn’t even wrong, however I would like to take my content to the next level! Weekly content did not allow me to improve my editing, comedic timing, voiceovers, etc. With more time to edit and learn different tricks, I am able to innovate and improve the content.

As you likely have noticed, my videos, especially when compared to other planet zoo creators (which is not an attack!) are very highly edited. This naturally means the content takes longer to produce, and by making weekly videos I was cutting into the time I would take to build the actual habitats to edit longer intros, rinse and repeat😅

Long story short, it got to be a lot, it was very stressful, and I wasn’t improving. I can handle the stress, because trust me you don’t know how good it feels to hit “publish” at 5am after a long night editing. It seriously is the best. However, what I can’t deal with is the lack of innovation, and going biweekly has allowed me to really expand my editing and PZ skill set.

I would like to make some smaller videos on the weeks we are not at Keystone Wilds though! But the main series will be every other week from now on! If you have any video ideas let me know! I love ranking things and tier lists are really fun too😁

Sorry for the epic ramble, but I hope you all value communication as much as I do! I love what I do, and that will never change📈

Frontier was kind enough to also send me an official, Complete Zoopedia! Without you all, this amazing and welcoming community, I would never have received one. I truly can’t thank you all enough!

Above is a link with a picture of every single page. The quality isn’t quite the same as holding the book in hand, however it is only fair and just that the people who allowed me to receive this amazing gift all get to partake in viewing it!

Thank you all so much for providing me and the other content creators with this opportunity, it is nearly impossible to put into words how grateful I am!

Out This Week Getting Some Primary Research Done For Our Upcoming Expansion!

Keystone Wilds is heavily inspired by Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and here are some areas that Keystone Wilds took heavy inspiration from!

The next video on the channel is going to be for two species, both mammals, but in different habitats! There was a hint hidden at the end of the Sloth Bear episode that will tell you exactly who one of them is😁

If you’d like additional content in the meantime, feel free to join the discord server! The link is always in the last video on the channel!

Until then!

There was a hint in the Sloth Bear episode yesterday that reveals exactly who we are building for next, and once you figure that out it’s quite obvious where we are going! Let’s see if you all can work together in the comments to decode the clue, because nobody has found it yet😁
