  • Good luck man, were all here with ya !

  • Don't be afraid of seeking help from psycho therapist if you're really depressed.

    You have been amazing~! Keep up the good work : )

  • my god... you are so amazing, im starting to think that you are making two films, you should enter your blogs into a film fest of sorts, as exploratory, its a winner, you've greatly inspired me to make films, yet somehow, i never get to shooting, i plan and plan and don't come through, but you on the otherhand are briliant and born to film. I'm still working, Thank you so much.

    -Chris

  • It is so good to see you back again....,but hopefully not under duress..!! Health comes first - you owe us nothing. It has been a privilege to watch a creative and gifted person share such an experiance with us, thank you for that. It would be a bonus for us to see this project through to its conclusion and to see you reach a day of significant reward..!!!!

    Once again, it's so good to see you back on track!

  • so glad you're back. you dont seem as happy as you were in your last blogs ;(

  • Nice to hear from you again, glad you are alright.

    I wish you all the best for rest of the project. You have my full support.

  • You are truly a great person. A complete pioneer, which if you look at the big, long, beautiful history of pioneers has never been an easy job, but pretty much always worth it. :)

    Good luck with this, and with everything you do!

  • no stress, all we car about is the film. well thats not true keep doing them

  • : ) : ) : ) : ) : )

  • Good to have you back.

  • It's about time! Jk. I had been wondering what was going on; glad to see you back!

  • I'm using you as my inspiration today to accomplish work related issues I need to get on with.

    Thanks!

  • You're great. Just great. What else is there to say? Don't feel any pressure. Only as long as YOU think this is fun and constructive should you do this.

    Good to see you again, mate. :)

  • It's great that you're back!

    Can't wait for the upcoming blogs!

  • Maybe this has been said all over the comments, but congratulations to you man! Sometimes i doubt if all of this is foreal but then i see all you gone through and specially all you've accomplished and i cant doubt it.

    That being said, greetings from Venezuela from a fan who's been here since the beggining (i know we all say that... but its true!)

    However silly this sounds, i hope everything works out with you and gaby and all your endeavours!

    Un abrazo

    from the lovely land mentioned in your blogs known as farnham :)

  • Hurah! You may not hear us but we are cheering :-)

  • I'm really happy to see you still hanging on! Highs and lows are to be expected, but don't let US be in the way! Even if the blog has been left aside for a while, it doesn't change my interest in your project.

    Keep going, you've been through so much and lived to tell the tale. Your entreprise has really been inspirational, and it's not a longer delay between blog posts that's going to change that.

  • Yesss! My subscription number 1 is back!

    Greetings from Switzerland!

  • long time watching.... first time commenting.... dont worry about letting the side down, or not sharing, or whatever! its ok everyone goes through difficulties with things, go at your own pace and keep going, what you have already done is fantastic!! I know that no-matter how long this project takes you it will be worth it in the end! and look at how many still support you!

  • Yeah welcome back :D!

  • You DO have a beard and it looks awesome on you! DO NOT GET RID OF IT!

    Other then that I really like your blogs etc. I've been watching them from the start and I am sure that if you take some rest and keep up the good work your film will be a HUGE succes! :)

  • Welcome back!

    Awesome to hear the blogs are back, and on the 30th, which so happens to be my birthday!

    Sweet deal!

    Good luck!

  • Welcome back! I'm sorry to hear that things have been difficult for you, it was kind of strange to see you so somber. I hope things are getting better now. =)

  • welcome back, get amongst it!

    I look forward to seeing the story unfold further.

    cheers for the update.

  • YAY!!! welcome back!!! your blog always made my week and im very glad to see it back! :)

  • Art is Hell, man. Sometimes you've got to step way back to take a good look around in order to move forward. I've alarmed people at times when I've had to do just that, but it's necessary. It's always worth the wait, but you already know that.

    It looks like your audience will be here, so do whatever it takes in the time that it needs!

  • Hey Rob,

    We love you and we're thrilled to see & hear from you again, but for crying out loud, look after yourself! Take things at your own pace. You don't actually owe us anything.

    Thank you deeply for sharing your story

  • well welcome back!

  • Thank you so much for your commitment to us, and also for completely opening up like that. It takes guts and was a very successful vlog. I can't wait to see what you've been up to, may God be with you!

  • very glad to see you back! take as long as you want, do not feel pressured by everyone here, as much as we are anxious to see the footage we care more about yourself and the project. Good luck!

  • can only imagine the sort of pressure of putting all that stuff together, anyhow its good to hear from ya

  • Thank goodness you're back.

    I was wondering where you had got to.

  • I actually thought about you just a couple of days ago, and I wanted to send you a message asking how you were doing, both with the film and personally. Glad to see that you have not abandoned the project, even though you've continued it at your own discomfort, as I have to assume it would have been even worse for you if you had given up.

    You're an inspiration to us all, and I wish you the best.

  • Good to have you back, your blogs were helping my own creativity, so inspirational.

    But, you dont just look tired, you look shit, even in a nice suit. Take good care of you.

  • Welcome Back!!!

    I've been checking your page periodically since you vanished and I'm so happy you decided to come back! Yay. I'd take a 5 month break in videos any day if it means you are still going behind the scenes!

    And oh my god your hair and beard is gone!

    I miss them!

  • Welcome back ^_^ I have been missing you. Rock and Roll baby!

  • Congratulations on your success! Great job, rob. Don't worry about disappointing your fans. I'm sure I can speak on behalf of all of us and we're not disappointed. Keep up the great work. And I hope everything is still going well with you. Sorry things got so rough, but you can totally make it!

  • Dude you look tired... but good to have you back on the scene... You know I really enjoyed watching the blogs.. and even all the bad stuff.. coz thats it.. it was your life.. not just a project.. It was evething you did and every thing you had to grind through to get ther... Dont edit out too much... keep it true.. and tell people the full story.

    safe man.

    xx

  • you are amazing Keep it up!

    glad you're back!

  • cmon take out some trailer pleeeeease!

  • excuse my french but FUCK YEA!!! WELCOME BACK ROB!

    i think i speak for everyone when i say we all missed you very very much.

    me and my family look forward to seeing how far along you are on your project (your dream) and we support you 200%. never give up, head right for that light at the end of the tunnel and if it is in fact a train dont stop...head full speed and derail that mother bitch!

    JUST KNOW YOU NEVER BETRAYED US MAN! WE ALL UNDERSTAND

  • I have been watching these from the start and they are very inspirational. You are a very brave to take on this challenge and i know you will have sucsess.

    Good luck to you and Gabby!!!!! hope things are better and if not ill throw a barbque it will be great.

    Also i just want to tell you i hope you can get over whatever it is you couldn't talk about and realize there is still happiness in the world you just have to look. :)

  • you're a brilliant guy my friend. I have massive respect for your project, and it's excellent to hear from you. Don't feel you need to apologize - we're all behind you completely.

    The award is great news, you deserve it! It's gonna be alright man, you're doing an awesome thing, which (whilst it is a huge task) is something special. It's stepping out of the normal way of life, and doing something of your own, which I admire hugely.

    Go for it man!

  • Big hugs to both you and Gabby, ...have been following you from day 1 blog and immensely impressed by your fortitude. The film will reach it's own level soon enough, live life and don't put any more pressure on your self than is healthy to give yourself a kick up the backside, that's nobodys job but yours! we will all be here, quietly and patiently waiting. Congrats on your recent film award am off now to watch it.

  • Hey fella ,

    Please worry no more! It says as much about you that you feel the need to apologise - you don`t. Editing films about making films was never going to be easy especially as the project was always going to engulf every aspect of your life. Respect for disclosing as much as you`re comfortable with too.

    Good luck with the next phase, i look forward to seeing it :D

  • Sweet! I was very glad to see this video update. May you find the time and strength to keep this inspiring project moving forward. I look forward to following your continuing adventures on this fascinating endeavor.

  • Hey dude, i couldn't not write anything, I've been watching these from the very beginning, You are doing great.

    You had a meltdown which honestly with a project of this magnitude was to be expected. I hope you managed to salvage your relationship at least.

    We are with you all, Can't wait to see what you have been up to and to watch the final product.

  • Wow, well done with the other video!

    Keep going dude! you're amazing, just keep it up - don't worry about the blogs, just focus on the film and show us when you're done! we wont go anywhere. COME ON!! KEEP GOING! you know we're behind you...

  • don 't worry dude, everything's gonna be alright .. ;) glad to see your face again, next thing on the agenda, a big smile of excitement :D we all support you ! Don 't worry, be happy ;) or like I like to say it, don 't worry , be hippie ! :D

  • Glad to hear you're not gone. Your project is so important to me. And i'm sure, and you can see, that it is to a whole lot of other people. Hope you'll be on top again :-)

  • YOU SAID IT MAN!

  • keep it up, i love watching the process because its ispiraring and its interesting and new to have the whole process of the time in which the film is made over the real amount of time. KEEP IT UP

    .

  • Awesome!! I've been waiting for this.

  • You can do it Rob! Welcome back!!!!!

  • You look healthier Rob!

    How far have you gotten with the actuall shooting of the film? - Dadi Jaan

  • It's great to see you back, also the short film was flipping brilliant :)

  • Welcome back. Hugs!

  • Great to see you back Rob : )

  • where can we see your short film?

  • It's awesome to see you are still going. I recently hit one of those brick walls, so I'm well aware of what it's like. I'm still going and you will too. Take a look at what I've been doing. You were one of the major inspirations.

  • It's great to see you back Rob, I'd wondered where you'd got to.

    I hope you're ok mate.

    Welcome back :)

  • GOO ahead!! nice to see your back! !

  • Sometimes the passion itself must take some haults, a time to rest for the next burst of progress... i believe the things that are worth the time and effort will always prove positively in the end.

  • also congrats on the film festival!

  • Glad your back mate =]

    I hope the project gets easier for you now

  • Congratulations on the short film and great to see you again!!

  • 5 stars and I haven't watched the video yet! You're back! Whoo hoo! Now to watch the video . . .

  • Great you're alive and back! I'm looking forward to the new blogs.

  • Reality...jeep the faith man. Congrats on the short film! That's huge. At least you know you're not crazy! :-P

  • Rob dude, your awesome. Glad your still breathing lol :D

    Pumped to see how everything is coming along!

  • Rob!! Its so good to hear from you again! Continue fighting for your dream.

  • keep on keeping on man!!!!!!!

  • Welcome back Rob! You look like youve been through hell and back. I look forward to seeing the end result!

  • Good to see you again!

    I was actually going through your old blogs a few days ago to see if I had somehow missed something.

    You = Pure inspiration.

    I'll be highly anticipating the upcoming blogs.

  • This is great to hear. I missed the blogs :) And I cannot wait to see the movie.

  • you look like youve been living in a cave for the last 5 years

  • Finally, you're back! I was afraid you had abandoned this wonderful one-of-a-kind project. Can't wait to see more.

  • That's a great idea! Yes I'm sure people would love to donate! Great job, keep it up!

  • Good to see you back!

    If you need money, many people would love to donate.

  • keep at it, we all have faith in you. dont stress over the blogs, most of us would rather you get everything sorted out, before you worry about the blogs. :]

  • Very glad to see you're back! Hope everything is well between Gabby and yourself!

  • Congratulations! Don't stress yourself out. Your fans understand you have a life other than the blog!

  • Instead of stressing on blogs you just them once in a while at your will. Like around 1 blog every week or 2. that souldn't be too bad.

  • Glad to see that you're back. Congratulations on winning the film competition with your other film.

  • You seem haunted...

    Glad to see your back though, and by the look of the comments so does everyone else. Looking forward to seeing what you have been up to... all sounds quite epic.

  • support!

    You should ask for donations.

  • yay. good stuff mate. Keep it up!

  • yah! im glad your back!

  • SWEET! You're back! Keep up the good work, and lets see some blogs!

  • great to hear from you again :)

  • Is it just me or does anyone else think this is unbeleivable?

    Such staggering dedication has gone into this, and the result will be an equally as staggering acheivement.

    I can't express in words how much I respect that, and how little I can understand the amount of blood and sweat a person could put into a project like this.

  • Hope you and Gabi are okay. No worries about the wait. Life does go on. We just don't want to see your dream die. But don't guilt about it. ;-)

  • Glad to have you back on YouTube, but don't put yourself through hell on our account. I can't speak for everyone, but being one of your subscribers, I wouldn't want you to feel any sort of obligation to us. You come first, man! Not your fans. I hope the project goes well. : )

  • i really cannot wait to see the finished piece. even more so knowing what you have been through

  • Great to have you back! Hope everything is going well!

  • Good to have you back :)

    The short, Rohypnol Love was intriguing... I need to watch more films :/

    Good luck with any project in the future :)

  • No worries.  Can't wait 4 thursday's blog

  • great to have you back, mate. glad everythings coming together for you.

  • Rob -

    So good to know that things are looking up for you! Also good to know that you and Gabi's relationship has endured this difficult time in your lives.

    -Ryan

  • YAY gr8 to have you back =D

  • Thank god you're back

  • so glad you're continuing with the project. it really is a huge undertaking and very few people would even attempt it. best of luck!

  • im glad to see you back! Good luck! Im rooting for you!

  • obviously you needed to take a break to work on the short film which I'm sure broke up the monotony of working on the same project by yourself and will probably allow the creative juices to flow on this project once again... glad to see you back!

  • I was wondering where you had gone. Nice to see you are back. I really hope you succeed and that you and Gabby are fine.

  • Good to see you back. Looking forward to the blogs...

  • Grats on winning the festival! Glad your back.

  • Excited now. I'm glad to see you're back. Good Luck!

  • well done for your film winning the Berline film festival, brilliant!

  • so glad you back..keep it up! its amazing!

  • I like you both Gabi and you. I mean you seem like very good people. You're inspiring.

    I wish you good luck in all your projects and may your dreams come true.

    :)

  • im so glad you're back can't wait to see the blogs!

  • Great to have you back man!

  • Keep it up man, it'll be worth it.

  • Life is important.

    Youtube is not.

  • Look forward to seeing more of your blogs!

  • You're dedication is just awesome. Best of luck! I look forward to the blogs!

  • Seriously dude, I'd totally give you a hug right now.

  • Good to see you man, I'm glad you've kept it going. Grow your hair out again though, it's awkward seeing it so short =D

    keep going!

  • Glad to see you back around, sorry to see you had some rough times. I hope Gabi is doing well also.

  • Things rarely go as planned. Finish the film and your goal is achieved. Im still watching Rob.

  • just wanna say its awesome that ur doing this and keep doing a great job!!!

  • Hi Robert, can i call you Robert?

    You don't owe us anything, specially not an explanation. Please put your health before a film, or atleast a blog. I'd much rather see you doing fine then a blog.

    So, Robert, please take your time doing this. When something is worth doing, it is worth doing it good.

    Good luck Robert

  • Keep it up pal!

  • best of luck my friend for the road to reason is but riddles of time.

  • Sounds like you've gone through some pretty harsh things since the last blog then. I don't need an apology for something that is completely out of your control. And even then, you don't owe us viewers anything at all!

    The most important thing is that you're feeling well about what you do, if this project takes 5 more years, then that's all cool by me. I just know the finished product will be awesome, even if only because I know that you did the entire thing on your own. :)

  • You look different D:

    Still loading the video, so I'll probably comment again in a sec :P

  • It's great to have you back Rob. Take care of yourself. Pace yourself. We're behind you all the way :) and you Sir.. are a true inspiration!

  • Good to see you back man. No bead- bet the missus is happy about that!

  • keep it strong rob! you're very talented! i can't wait to catch up with your progress!

  • welcome back, we've been waiting :)

    your work is amazing, we'll support :)

  • You already got a lot of support, you´re gonna get more.

  • Look, you´re not a machine. No human being is, I know what mental blocks can do to a person. And there is no apology needed also.

    I found it remarkable that a single person can run such a project with such a determination, with basically only himself as a motivation, and do everything literally on his own, get up at 6 with noone pushing you to.

    I just a few weeks ago finished watching ALL vlogs and there was no doubt that you would return.

    Sometimes people need a break that´s pretty normal.

  • This is awesome, I am so happy that I can see more of your amazing filming experiences.

  • I love what you're doing but please don't make yourself Ill over it, especially over us, you couldn't let anyone down after all that you've done, you've done what so many of us has dreamed of doing but never had the courage or the motivation or the patience to do and we all respect you for that. Have you tried Emotional freedom technique (EFT)? It works wonders, I suffer from depression and I can't tell you haw much it helped. It's quick and easy and just relaxing. Makes everything better :)

  • wow welcome back!!!

    hope your alright and i cant wait to see the next blogs

  • from one filmmaker to another; it's really good to have you back. best of luck.

  • Yes! keep it up! we belive in you! ;)

  • Looking forward. Glad to see you back.

  • this is fantastic that you are back! you've been a very large inspiration rob, and im glad that your getting back into doing blogs

  • Welcome back! We missed you.

  • I was absolutely THRILLED to see a new entry into this epic saga! Wonderful to see you again! I can't wait to hear about whats been happening with everything. A hearty welcome back to you!

  • When i first started watching ur blogs (way back @ blog 1) I got the impression that u were sorta doing it to show that it was possible. In your most recent blogs it was sad, depressing really watching u guys fight (enjoyed the positive relation ship bits just not the other parts). After 38 blogs we didn't really see any part of the film and with all the problems that came up it really seemed (to me atleast) that vision, drive, passion... movie was over. U didn't say much, hope all worked out

  • Welcome back. Your channel deserves wayyyyyy more views than it's already getting. This kind of dedication needs recognition.
