HarvestmanMan
In brief
HarvestmanMan is a 19-year-old dude who used to make those videos. The...you know, the things. The YouPoo things or whatever you call them. Fuck. I forget, but you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, yeah, he made some of those.
History
I got the brainchild of making poops after watching several poops by various authors, such as mrSimonalt, ophios, Brillemeister, and Deepercutt in late 2007/early 2008. At first, I used almost exclusively CD-i content, and making poops was exceedingly difficult due to the extremely slow nature of Windows Movie Maker. Once I moved to Adobe Premiere Elements 8, however, things started picking up. I began to use various, completely random sources, not just CD-i, and learned that many of my jokes weren't all that funny in the first place. This would continue to be a problem.
I contributed to many collabs and held a few as well. I stopped entering them after Stuart K. Reilly did not accept my entry into one of his collabs - for the third time I'd tried to entered one. I stopped organizing them after entrants to the second Closing Logo Collab acted like ten-year-olds. Which they probably were, but eh.
First poop seen
First poop made
I made something very strange that I uploaded using Photobucket's video function some time around 2006. Unfortunately, I can't access the Photobucket account any more.
Style
HarvestmanMan uses mostly visual effects. He is a slower pooper, and uses many references and overlays in place of visual effects.

Likes
Medium-paced poops, outdated forms of technology (Super 8 film, cassettes, records, VHS tapes), and YTPMVs.
Dislikes
- Avast Your Ass
- People who don't include all the entries in completed collabs
- The YTPMV community
- Pretty much every pooper who never ventures outside of the YouChew Box O' Moral Support (aka Poop Talk)
Reception
- 151 subscribers. Very few videos get any noticeable views, much less ratings.
Criticism
Tends to be slow-paced. Also some things don't render like they're supposed to.

Poop Listing
- No thanks, most of them are complete shit. You can look them up on YouTube channels LaddyDongdegs and HarvestmanMan if you really want to
Other Information
His pitch shifter is broken beyond repair; therefore, because of this, he could no longer make YTPMVs that use pitch shifting. However, he discovered a new method of doing things: exporting a sample clip less than a second long as a WAV file, then shifting it up or down a semitone in Audacity, in such a manner that an octave was formed. This method is very time-consuming, as the audio must be split into clips whenever it changes pitch, but it works fairly well.
Trivia
- HarvestmanMan was originally an alt created during the LaddyDongdegs period in light of the WMG crackdown at the time.
- He has a co-op account with RCROX5000, "DaftPunkFTWProd". [4]
- His name has been changed twice on YouChew: once to ManHarvest (during Sexual Innuendo Username Day), and once (by his request) to Edsel Ford during Harrison Ford Appreciation Day. He roleplayed for Halloween as Pinkamina Diane Pie.
- His YouTube account also features footage of Oz banning TehEliteOne from Tinychat. [5]
