Video Progress 3/31

Added 2024-04-01 00:42:17 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone,

I hope all are well. I’m overdue for a progress update, so I wanted to take a bit to let you all know where I’m at in the video, and how much left there is to complete before it’s finished. The script is at 14K words at the moment, and I expect it’ll be around 17K by the time it’s totally finished. I’ve also got about 50 minutes of completed video edited, and Ryan has scored much of it. Most of this completed video is ready to go, some need a bit of re-working, but that’ll be revisited at the latter stages..

It might seem weird that I begin recording and editing before the script is 100% complete. I know most creators don’t do it this way, but I like to start seeing what the video will look and sound like pretty early in the process, and I don’t mind going back to rearrange earlier sections at a later stage once I get further into the story. I’ve been pretty much doing it this way since the beginning.

But what's left to write is heavily outlined and I know exactly where the story is going. I expect the finished video will probably be in the ballpark of an hour and twenty to an hour and thirty minutes. At the pace I’m going, I should be finishing by mid-spring.

I’m happy to announce we’ll be having another ending credits song by Prisoner’s Cinema, the band of Atrocity Guide composer Ryan Probert, as well as May Chi and Luke Deane. It’s been created for this episode as a capstone to the experience, and I’m very excited to show it.

Thank you all for sticking with me through these long productions. I wouldn’t take this long if I didn’t think it would lead to something truly worth your time.

Talk soon,
