**We've moved to The Escapist! New episodes weekly!**
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/extra-credits

Episode One in my series of video "lectures."

Originally created as a presentation for an art history class at SCAD, loosely modeled after Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw's Zero Punctuation reviews. Made to be presented on screen in the classroom.

  • @deafweasel99 He mentioned on the Q&A last night that the original idea was intended to be a ZP homage, but when he finished the first video, it came in at very slightly over 10 minutes (which was a strict time limit). Instead of editing and rerecording, he just sped the whole video up.
