I remember first reading about the corrupted footage on Facebook. Gah!! So heart wrenching! It hits home even more after seeing the hard work you did behind the scenes. To any new Encounterers out there, you already know it worked out, so the twist at the end may not seem like much. I assure you, at the time it was heavy. Fear of having nothing to show after all that time and dedication from everyone involved. Fans such as myself who were eagerly anticipating tales of glory were left hanging and not sure we'd get any Batman content. Those 16 hours were DARK times! (...... See what I did there? I didn't actually mean to do something, but I did it...) Anyway PETER YOU MAGICAL GENIUS!! Serious kudos to you for sticking out those unexpected hours at the computer!
Thanks Blucham! We almost included further context -- that "Pokémon University" had been indefinitely shut down by RU-vid Legal right before this, which made potentially losing our second big musical in a row the most incredibly ruthless of blows... Probably the closest we ever came to deciding to quit YouTubing, simply because it felt impossible to finish any of our musicals!
+Random Encounters oh, no, that's horrible. all the pressure, I mean. I never really thought how frustrating it must be to make your musicals. Please, never quit because something is too hard. take a break maybe, but not quit. if you guys quit, me, along with many other fans, will be devastated. we love you guys!
+Random Encounters I thought I herd Peter start to cry when the footage was lost, if he did, give him a big ol' hug from your biggest fan, Owen Casella. Even thought this happen awhile ago, still, give him that hug for me.

I used to videography in high school and there was a time that a whole weeks worth of work was lost due to data being corrupted. Though now much further in the future form my days in videography, my heart sank and i starting tearing up when I read the message about almost losing all that hard work. People who've never done plays or video projects don't really understand all that is involved to bring these kinda projects to life. I'm very grateful that this musical was saved and that AJ and everyone involved make such great content. Thank you to everyone at Random Encounters.
I guess we can call the footage corruption a... Random Encounter. I just had to. With all seriousness though, this was an awesome video. Personally, I would never have been able to bring back the footage, So thanks for the precious 16 hours of retrieving it. Keep up the great work RE!
I'm just saying I don't think his guys get enough thanks for everything they do because I mean like everything they do is just amazing and it almost like broke my heart when I heard that they lost half their videos footage because they work hard on that and now it just went away but I'm glad they were able to restore it. love you guys
It's because I watched a game called The Boogie Man. In which the antagonist wore a hangmans noose as a tie. The Boogie Man is an RPG maker game made the same person who created The Crooked Man and The Sand Man.
I just want to say that I'm very thankful to you guys for working so hard to give fun and AMAZING videos for us to watch! I love you guys so much and people really have to think twice about how much work people put into things! So I can't believe that Peter did that, thank you so much. -Demon
Hey peter, I edit videos for my friends scout troop and make little musical type things based off of your guy's musicals. I totally respect and empathize with having to recover a video from the memory of the computer. It sucks but you succeeded, I sadly failed. Props to you man.
You guys are so amazing they persevered through the horrible thing that happened and managed to make a musical, which was amazing, out of the footage they had. Love you all so much
Peter, Sparrow, A.J and everyone that works with them you all are amazing and work really hard to make use happy usually I would say some random bs right now but I love you guys and Peter thanks you for working so hard to recover this musical I love you guys and I just subscribed so thank you guys as I probably said before
When they were eating lunch that is the cafeteria background for baldi's bacics : the musical LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO (Random Encounters salute oooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
For some reason I always get the behind the scenes first when I click my subscriptions and not the original video and usually I cant even find the main video there at all. Why cant you have a link to the original video in the behind the scenes?
This one is actually an older video that they're just now posting the behind the scenes for. However, I did have the same problem with Encounting episodes/bloopers, where the bloopers showed up before the episodes... Haven't had the problem with the normal videos, though. Granted, having a link back to "Watch the music video here!" wouldn't be hard for them to add.
Wow the computer was overwriting the videos that is so strange lol! Good job Peter for saving enough of the footage to make it possible. Beards on to you Peter! (Hats off! but switching it to Beards and On lol! This is me at 12:30am)
if one looks in the back before Sparrow's juice box was taken by Peter one could see Devon as Bane without his mask on and he had a little bit of a beard lol it's 1:47
This looks brilliant and like so much fun; makes me wish I could have been part of it. Good job! Brilliant costumes! And.. do pass me Dr. Crane's emailadres when you have the time. I mean, bye.
