Welcome to the Studio | Making a Studio E1

[@jacobpace9239]

Something cozy about organizing a board game space in a Disney sweatshirt. Love it.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Hahah we are all vibes

[@Delta-whales-entertainment]

Congratulations! The opening dance really grabbed my attention right away.😆

[@FostertheMeeple]

Haha we have moves

[@Doolin_Tablenauts]

This is the type of stuff I like to watch while cleaning my space as well 😂. So pumped for the new space!!

[@simonairey8982]

So pleased to see Juno comfy in the new studio. Can't wait to see the finished set up KAY!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Kayyyyy thanks :) hahaha

[@rolling.reggie]

Jamie aggressively throwing the bubble wrap is a vibe. Congratulations guys, this is the dream! Lots of hard work will pay off. Excited for content from the studio.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks Reggie!!

[@Thebrewgeek1]

Congratulations! It’s awesome when board game channels continue to grow. I’m still blown away that board game channels are profitable enough to have a studio and full time employment. This is so good for the hobby!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Neither of us are full time in content yet! But that is the dream haha!! We also love seeing this hobby grow and the people in it!

[@JonTripp115]

Jeff's power-flop shows he has greater confidence in his couch-assembly skills that I have in mine. Congratulations on the new space!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks Jon!

[@karenpatterson2651]

Congrats guys. What an amazing space. So excited to see all the rooms finished, especially to see what you chose for paint colour. I like that huge hallway which will look amazing lined with books. Seeing the 3 of you on the couch with Jeff playing "handies" with Juno made me smile ear to ear. Almost as much as seeing you both wearing your WDW spirit jerseys while you worked. I absolutely ❤️ that you both love the 2 things i ❤.....board games and disney!

[@FostertheMeeple]

[@joshjones249]

Yess! Love this for you guys! Congrats! Super excited for the new chapter for you both!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks Jonesy!!!!

The box is a small network rack cabinet box usually used for switches and routers, looks like the previous tenants had a network setup.

[@MarinaS341]

Something so relaxing about watching someone organize a space 💕

[@Kojimalosophy]

so happy for you guys! I wish you tons of MORE success!

[@ryanmiddleton6335]

This is so exciting! Extremely happy for you guys (and the FTM family of course). One suggestion, not sure the rules in Canada, but in the U.S., we cannot cover up our electrical panels and there even has to be a certain amount of clearance around the panels in case fire or service need to access it. I just would t want you to put all your library on that wall for you to have to remove it again!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Yes there will not be a shelf in front of that!!

[@The.FrozenGamer]

This was my concern too for your safety and convenience if a breaker trips! Glad you won’t be putting that shelf in front of it.

[@WhereMyMeepsAt]

Well this looks fun!

[@michaeldarling7169]

Love seeing everything coming together for you!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thank youuuu

[@ascalhoon]

That space is HUGE!! Love it. Can't wait to see it develop.

[@MrJmarzetti]

Congratulations on the big move to having a dedicated studio space. As an artist that has tried supporting thyself on their art, I know what a big step this is! Wishing you both a lot of success and happiness in your new space.😊

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thank you!!! We’re super excited!

[@neopet84]

Congratulations on the new studio. I'll have too keep an eye out next time i am down the city way.

[@richardmiller1215]

Congratulations 🎉 FYI Rollerblade style replacement wheels with bearings is a game changer!

[@teaNgames]

This is so great! I'm so excited for ya'll!🎉

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thank you!

[@patricksteele]

I moved house last year and your video brings back memories 😄 Good luck!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thank you!

[@DarkDragon24u]

this looks a good time of video 😁waiting for the boardgame shelfs heheheh

[@FostertheMeeple]

You and me both haha

[@AeronwyD]

The space is much bigger than I thought it was going to be. Very nice!! I hate packing up and unpacking for places - it's almost overwhelming. (If you ever figure out what that box by the ceiling in the hallway is for, I'd love to know!) And I feel your pain about those stupid wheels. I've put together all of our chairs in my house and that is hands down the worst part.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Someone commented what it was! The wheels are brutal haha

[@BoardExplored]

What an incredible space!! So exciting! Congrats guys!!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks!

[@jamessmith1274]

I am so excited for you both! It is going to be so nice! Also mental health wise it will be nice to go to this place and then once you are home you are home❤ separating the two spaces will only be beneficial I would imagine. Love Foster the Meeple!!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Honestly it’s already proving massive mental health benefits. Thank you James!

[@derricklaffingcow1611]

Woohoo!!! How exciting!!! Congrats to the both of you! Two random questions: 1. What song is playing while you are assembling the chair and sofa? 2. Have you made any announcement regarding your annual Disney Villainous tournament? Looking forward to seeing more of your progress and future videos of the new studio!

[@bluebadsquishy]

[@meeplechat5046]

Congratulations!!! Taking it to the next level!

[@tomjzed]

What brand is the couch? You should preserve the space in the offices / studios and use the long hallway for the game storage. It is probably underutilized space otherwise.

[@FostertheMeeple]

That’s the plan!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Not sure on the brand but it’s from wayfair

[@dominiquebelanger1828]

Exciting! I’m hoping for more organizing games videos, love those. Curious of how you pick which games go to the studio and which will stay in your nice shelves at home. Congrats on your new space. 🎉

[@FostertheMeeple]

It’s kind of a couple of criteria 1) do we need to film it (preview games etc) 2) will our game group play it? We tend to keep 2player games here

[@BraidenWatling]

Amazing! Congrats on the new space :D

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks!!!

[@paulsalomon27]

Line that main hallway with game shelves. Alllll the way down. Towns of room.

[@FostertheMeeple]

That’s our new plan!!

[@noizeemama3697]

Those rooms are all so small!

[@karenjones5984]

Where did you get the Studio Ghibli “prints”? 8:04

[@FostertheMeeple]

We found them at a local shop in town!

[@chrissmithspresence]

I think that black metal box is for network/wifi stuff.

[@Ian-R-Wilz]

WOW, for some reason I thought you were building a new studio, not purchasing a space and renovating it. That's a nice big space. You're going to have to make some fancy door to put over your game shelves so you can still access those electrical panels.

[@FostertheMeeple]

We were originally planning on building but we got some WILD quotes and got ghosted by a bunch of companies and put on waitlists so we decided to rent a space instead and were really glad we did!

[@Ian-R-Wilz]

@ very nice. Looks like it’s going to be a great space.

[@VanRyderGames]

Congrats! This is amazing. (AJ)

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks!!!!

[@Drumox]

Just line that long hallway with Kallaxs full of games

[@FostertheMeeple]

That’s the plan!! Haha

[@irenetooplays]

Loving the studio vlog ❤ So excited for future videos! Btw, I love your sweater! Where did you get it? If you have an affiliate link, I'd totally use it!

[@FostertheMeeple]

We don’t, but we do want to reach out to see if we can work with them! It’s from Eastcoast Lifestyle

[@joewatts6016]

Are you going to have to plan which games go where or are you going to end up wanting to play a game at home and realise it's at the office.

[@FostertheMeeple]

We have left our most played games at home and a lot of our “gateway” game for when others visit, party games too! Luckily we have enough games we can always grab something else if we need to! Ha

[@MrBurlingtonBertie]

Yikes. This is serious. Good luck and very best wishes to you both.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Why yikes?? Haha

[@GeekTheGreat87]

Do you both content create full time? Or, do either of you also have day jobs?

[@FostertheMeeple]

We both have day jobs as well :)

[@GeekTheGreat87]

@@FostertheMeeple I don't know how you two do all of this while both also having day jobs 😆, but keep up the good work! Love the quality and flow of your vids.

[@masonpierce6315]

Big fan of the channel. First time commenter. Please never post pictures of keys. Despite what people think, locks are quite simple. A single picture of a key tells everyone exactly how the tumbler on your lock works. I used to pick locks as one of my hobbies...for most standard locks the mystery is how high up to push each pin. A key illustrates that.

[@jamesmorgan1967]

How far is the studio from your home? Congrats on the new space! Loved all the Juno footage. 🐺

[@FostertheMeeple]

It’s about 15 mins!

[@jkledis]

I wish you the best. My only question is - How can you live without board games in your house. I hope your new studio is close and not an hour away! 😅

[@FostertheMeeple]

lol don’t worry we still are keeping our favs and most played at our house!!

[@josiecalder]

Congratulations

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks!!! ☺️

[@utubingit357]

I hope you don’t paint it dark ur first one back in ur old house had light walls and it seemed so much more cheerful whereas the dark walls didn’t. Either way I’ll still watch but just thought you should know! 😊

[@FostertheMeeple]

They are for sure painted dark! Haha it’s just what we like, everything on our house is very dark 🤣 the sitting set is a bit more of a brighter green though!

[@Iwannarockey]

Will the podcast only be for backers or can anyone listen when its available? 😊

[@FostertheMeeple]

It will be for backers but may get released publicly at a much later date, unsure!
