[Happy Halloween!]{INFO} Status Update: Frozen 2 | Spooky Sadako Animation | VELMA 4k |

Hi, everybody. As always, I hope you are doing well. And Happy Halloween! I wish you a creepy creepy and depraved Halloween. :) It's time for the monthly status update.

Firstly, alas, I did not have time to prepare the design of this post in my usual style. In the form of a series of pictures for Halloween.

Why? Because I still decided to do a little animation with Sadako. I urgently needed a dose of Spooky nsfw stuff. And I'm also tired of animating Anna and the dude's endless walking around the castle.

But let's talk about everything in order.

p.s a lot of gif format files. Perhaps with a weak Internet, the post will take a long time to load. GIF files don't work on the application at all. I will insert them separately in the appendix to the post.

Anna:

Almost 10-11 minutes of this animation will be a kind of introduction after which the sex scenes will begin. 8 Minutes is only the first 2 parts of the animation that I planned to fit in 3-4 minutes. But at some point I caught myself thinking that I had added too much text to the scene with the tower. To make it clearer. The animation will consist of 4 parts. Part 1 is the part about the castle.  Part 2 is about a kind of climb up the tower inside the secret corridors.  Part 3 is directly about the tower where all the interesting actions will take place. and 4 is the final part, in my opinion, if it turns out to be implemented, it will look quite interesting. 

So how did I understand that there is a lot of text in part 3. I realized, after I recorded all her lines with my voice. Yeeees, I do my own voice acting in order to understand how much time is needed for a text line and how best to make a preliminary lips sync. One of those things you wouldn't show anyone, not even your best friend. :). And i understand that if I leave all the main dialog lines in 3 parts. Then the main character will become the guy who comes to visit a girl in the hope of sex and gets 10 hours of conversation about her ex. So I moved most of the text to the first 2 scenes. And I reduced some of it. Especially in the scene associated with the ascent of the tower. If I hadn't done that, this tower would have seemed endless. Rapunzel's hair would not be enough to reach the ground from her. In short, in the animation I need to fit a lot of text.  To give the essence to everything that happens in the future. Due to the fact that these scenes are mainly about dialogues and my plot ideas, there is almost nothing to show me that would be interesting like with nsfw scenes and without spoils.

What I already have with Anna. These are essentially finished 2 parts. I think I'll make a few edits to them and that's it. Now I'm starting part 3. Literally 2-3 minutes separate me from the sex scenes, I think. This animation is going to be pretty heavy for me. Animating these adventures around the castle and her chatter is very laborious.  In some places I used simple simplifications to ease some protracted scenes. But in general, I tried to diversify this adventure as much as possible, so that it would not be boring. So, summing up everything, I can say that there is not much left until the most piquant scenes.If i make predictions about when I will finish with this animation, taking into account what I will say below. I don't even know if I would like to finish it in December before the new year. Those scenes that have remained, they usually come easier to me (sex scenes). BUT quite a lot of work will be related to render and post-processing. Not to mention the sound. Will see. For now I would like to try to finish this in December by the new year such a goal. Maybe everything will be later.

I am not sure about the part of the text that is above. If there are errors or it is unclear or unreadable, let me know and I will try to fix it.

In the meantime, our heroes successfully escaped from the guards and went through the bathhouse to the secret room in which the guy is not waiting for the freedom he was waiting for.  I'll share something else.

Spooky Sadako Animation:

I was thinking of taking on this animation or not. But in general, after a week-long trip to the family I talked about last month. I feel pretty good and productive. Therefore, today I decided to take it up. It will be a small simple animation for 3 + minutes. I just caught myself thinking that I want to do something scary. And in general, in the last month I got hooked on horror theme and the general mood is disposed to this.  I think I'll do it november month.

This is a fast prerender. I made it to show the concept of animation that I plan.  It is necessary to slightly modify her moving fast and slow down the scene. And I think I'll change the camera to a close angle. I think the character will look more interesting. We'll see, though. Still need to run a couple of tests. The lightning effect will be done better.

And I think I'll change the camera to a close angle. I think the character will look more interesting. We'll see, though. Still need to run a couple of tests. By the way. Hair. Horror. It's one thing to have big hair at the back like a Daemon Girl. Another thing is when long hair is in front. This is a completely different story.  I have found for myself several ways to cope with them, I hope it will work out. An important attribute of the character. And the most problematic.

4k Velma:

Velma 4k. I hardly found time to finish the unsuccessful scenes when rendering. Now everything has been replaced, everything is ready. I was thinking of releasing it today, but I screwed up with its sound when I put it to be processed in premiere pro.  So tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I will definitely post it.  I noticed that the main difficulty was not that the 4k format produced render for a long time. And the fact is that often my animation files are 4-8 files each (once there were 11 files).  They are in complete chaos. And this directly slowed down the process very much. I generally tend to be sloppy in terms of organizing folders and internal files. But here I surpassed myself, I think.  It will be necessary to manage animation files more carefully. Although it's too late for Anna, I've done a lot of business there :). BUT I'll definitely start with the next animation.

In general, that's all I have so far. I'm sorry that I have to wait for Anna for so long, but I won't be able to complete this project any faster.  But I will try to do it as quickly as possible based on my strength. 

Do not get sick and do not turn on old grandfather's cassettes!

Happy Halloween, folks!
