A mirror trick past 3.7 million keeps Kevin Parry's studio lit

No new uploads, and two summer shorts about his filming habits and a hidden cut are doing the quiet work beside it.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

When I go robot mode while filming 🤖

"Testing a new mirror trick" is a short from May on Kevin Parry's channel, and it has passed 3.7 million views. Parry is the Toronto stop-motion animator and visual effects artist whose one-man studio makes ads for global brands. His shorts tend to sit right where animation meets illusion, and this one, judging by its title, is him trying out a reflection gag on camera.

Nothing new went up this week, so the summer catalog kept the lights on. Two July shorts are drawing as steadily as the mirror test, day by day. "When I go robot mode while filming 🤖" plays on the stiff, frame-by-frame movement his work is known for. "Spot the edit 🎯" hands viewers a challenge: find the cut. For an animator whose best-known videos hide the seams, that is a fair dare. None of the three is racing. Each is adding a few hundred views a day, the gentle pace of shorts that have already had their moment and keep getting found.

Among the art, craft and magic channels near him in size, Serena Neel is having the big stretch, running well above her usual pace. lilycollects is busy too. ellieV is quieter than normal. Parry, at 3.8 million subscribers, held steady. Most of those viewers presumably came for walking-and-transforming illusions like the one he is famous for, and the mirror test is in the same spirit.
