June Summary + July Plans

Added 2022-06-28 21:31:54 +0000 UTC

Hey, I'm going to be on vacation for a week starting tomorrow. I want to go over the work done this month and the plans I have for July.

To summarize, I drafted 10 different animations, received voice acting for those 10 animations, and finished 2 of them.

While I would have liked more animations complete, I can't really say I'm displeased with the results. The first week of the month was spent drafting all the animations, so about 3 weeks were spent finishing 2 animations. That means I can pretty comfortably do 2 animations a month. I could likely 3 without all the extra drafting and could potentially do 4 at a stretch. Realistically, I will probably keep pace with 1-2 animations a month but mix commissions in.

The upside is that 1-2 animations a month is still far faster than the rate I've been doing animations lately. This has been a pretty big confidence boost. I thought that I would be a little rusty animating, but I managed to put out 2 animations with different tones and pacing that came out quite nicely.

For July, I think I will continue more or less the same as June. I will focus on animations including more drafts. I posed 15 scenes in May and drafted 10 of them in June. I want to start July by finishing the last 5 drafts so they can be sent for audio. Ideally, I also want to pose and draft another wave of animations for recording too. I like the idea of having a library of animation ready projects to choose from. It really helps the pace once I start animating. I will do at least another 1 or 2 complete loops. The number of loops will depend on how much work I balance with posing and drafting.
