I’ve also decided on the first test/pilot episode I’ll produce and make available to the community.

CLOAK OF DARKNESS / LAIR OF GRIEVOUS

It’s probably not one that’s highly anticipated, which is fine, but it serves multiple useful purposes:

It’s one of the more technically complex episodes, since it’ll require merging, polish, new sound work, and the creation of new scenes from third sources. So it’ll be a good technical challenge to get my skills back up to scratch, and to demonstrate those skills to you all.
It’s early, not too spoilery, and not vital, so it makes a good episode to present to the community to help refine both my technical edits and the standards for openings and credits which I intend to present.
While not one of the more anticipated elements, it’s one of the best examples of a potential “value add” edit, where the output could feel significantly improved over the inputs. It’s also one which, in my mind, is on the cusp between important and not important. So after it’s been produced, the community will be able to decide whether or not it belongs in the Quality Cut or a lower one.
