About This Title
Hello hello!
These days, making an animation is only half the battle. The other half is convincing YouTube's HIDEOUS TSUNDERE algorithm to actually show it to people!
For our latest video, we went through several thumbnail ideas before settling on the final one. Some emphasized the characters, others the action or atmosphere, and each gave the video a slightly different first impression.
We thought it'd be fun to share some of the alternatives with you!
The toughest choice was between the green-background Xenomorph art (which would have made a matching set with the Ashlin thumbnail on the original MONDAY animation) and the one we ultimately went with: Ashlin and the Xenomorph meeting face-to-face in space!
There were other little surprises in putting out a two-hour director's commentary too. Like remembering to add chapters (we did... the next day!) and hearing our own voices dubbed into different languages. It's a surreal experience hearing someone, or some...thing, imitating your voice in languages you don't even speak yet.
Which thumbnail would YOU have clicked on first?
