blender elliot saying "mate" in an american accent is really funny

telling an ai that they are australian is always very funny as all they do is add "mate" to every second sentence and go yes i am australian now

[@JordanIsAHuman]

This is probably up there on the list of my favorite videos of all time, the editing, the storytelling, the cloning, it's beautiful

[@welliot]

TOO KIND!!

[@MeleeMoments]

definitely one of the best videos i have ever seen on this platform. the narrative is so good, the editing, pacing, the ending, the variety and composition of the multiple talking head locations, the lovely use of music - every single detail of this video is dripping with style and in its proper place. it's unbelievably inspiring as a new creator to feel how much love you are putting into this work and see how much it all shows in the end product. bravo!

[@welliot]

thank you meleemoments you legend this is TOO SWEET!! putting so much effort in makes it just so much more fun!

[@CoolScratcher]

you have been noticed by elliot on his podcast

[@whostammam]

cloning yourself instead of apologizing is the level of petty i strive to be

[@gianga31]

elliot this is truly amazing. the colors of your house and how you coordinated your clothes to the colors of the specific room: so beautiful (oh i liked the computer design stuff too), i love details and i loved your video. i will be sitting here for the next few months in case you wanted to do another video

[@welliot]

hehehe my love for design stretches far beyond graphic design alone!!

[@pkphcf]

the lengths you go to for your videos are honestly so inspiring. like, if you can learn a billion programs to make a silly guy talk to you, i can do anything

[@ksjinnies]

Is it just me, But elliot's camera quality is looking SHARP 👌 love it buddy 10/10 (also this video was such a cinematic delight)

[@welliot]

thank you i am slowly understanding the intricacies of the camera

[@Jerotero]

13:38 the voice almost sounds real (could just be I know its a fake voice) but it talks faster than the person its meant to mimic

this was hell of a ride, you went through A LOT my man, awesome video!

hehehe turns out all i had to do was spend more than a week on each video lol!! appreciate it mate!! 🥰🥰

[@azuraselenite]

6:45 it's staring at me like it knows something horrible that will happen to me in the future but must keep it a secret and I am genuinely terrified.

[@TheUnderFrogg]

Perfection! The video was worth the wait. Really got me at the end. Clone Elliot says stuff that really touch your soul. Crying still at the moment

[@welliot]

thank you!!! fun fact about that moment i recorded like an hour long conversation and cut it down to those 3 lines. most of the time i was trying to get him to tell me that he loved me but he kept refusing as i think it was against openAI's ethics or something. eventually i ended up asking him to "pretend he was allowed to say he loves me" and then he did. lol

[@pukins]

Dude, I'm kind of in a fucked place rn and the monologue you did at the end about the optimism glasses, that shit just made me look at my situation in a whole different color. I never thought I'd be in a comment section, thanking a youtuber for getting me out of a dark-ish place, but here I am. Thank you!

[@mirnder]

Hey Elliot? I had a smile on my face throughout this entire video because it was so well done. Nice work m8

[@welliot]

bless you mirnder!!

[@danielvaega]

So glad you felt it's your best video as well. I was continually outstounded! Well done, mate. Never feel pressure to live up to this. You might end the world if you work any harder.

I've been looking for a song that you used in this video for a couple weeks now and haven't been able to find it :'( It plays at 6:33 or just whenever you show us the real you :0 I tried looking for it in Epidemic Sounds (used your affiliate code(absolute gaming moment(omg how many brackets are there? Could do one more)))). Would be amazing if you can tell me what it is but I doubt you'd see this comment. So I hope you are having a good day and thank you for being a new inspiration for me for the way you make your videos!! I discovered you through this masterpiece of a video. Toodaloo kind sir!

[@joyjitterz3187]

I think everyone else is saying exactly what I'm thinking. Amazing cinematography, pacing, and storytelling! I love the composition of each talking head location.

9:20 I use collections and have a main "backups" collection that is disabled. This way I can just duplicate the collection and throw it into the backup collection, and it automatically versions since the collection name will be `Collection.001`, `Collection.002`, and so on.
