Hello~ WIP update! I finished animated all of the first part! Hooray!!!
I mean, that doesn't mean the first part is 100% done, because I still need to finish the audio, and make adjustments to the editing, color correction, and small fixes if I have the time. But the most time consuming part is done!
It's funny that I asked for feedback about it I've been told it's more "spicy" than the first one... :P I've changed some of the timing, lights and cameras, but the situation is the same!

I guess that's a good thing, means it's an improvement.
...but wonder if some people on youtube won't like it. That's actually getting me nervous. :x
To be honest the way I'm thinking about this one is different from the first version, and that's not only because I know how to use Blender better. When I was making the first one, I was trying to make it look like the game as much as I was able to. For this one, I'm trying to make it look more cinematic. It's more of an original interpretation rather than trying to make it look like a cutscene, if that makes sense. I think that was a gradual change in how I think while making all of my videos.

As I had expected, the kiss scene was the one that took the longest. I have 7 hours of footage of only working on the animation part! And then there's the additional time of rendering, editing, fixing the lights...
I already starting searching for the audios I will need, and my otome game brain immediately knew where I'd get the sound/voice clips from Uchida Yuma (G'raha's JP VA)...I feel blessed that he is in so many good titles, like Olympia Soirée. Don't know how many of you have played it but if you know, you know.

Oh, by the way, the video got longer now! I added 5 seconds while animating the shots. Total so far is 47 seconds.
Now, next step is working on the second bonus part! I'm starting with rigging Estinien today, and then this weekend I plan on getting the layout done. Wonder if I can finish all of it until the end of next week...there's less shots, one might take me a little longer to make, but I think it could be doable!
Not gonna lie, I'm nervous about posting this one...but I hope you all enjoy it! :')
Thank you very much for your support!
