August Update

Phew, I was able to get part 4 in just before July ended 😅 And here we are, already in August.

Great news - we received a date for our house renovation zoning hearing (September 4th) so if all goes well, we should hopefully be able to start construction in September! That gives me most of August to get as much done as I can on this arc. Once construction starts, I'll still be working, I'm just not sure how much I'll be able to actually do during that time.

There are 5 parts left for this arc, and at the pace I'm going it looks like I can maybe get two more parts out in August. Part 7 will be HEAVILY animated, so I have no idea how long that one is going to take (especially with construction around that time). I will keep you all posted!

I am once again bringing the checklist back because I feel better seeing my progress lol:

• ✅ Storyboard the entire arc

• ✅ Time everything out into a rough animatic

• ✅ Send animatic to VAs and order voice work

• ✅ Build the blimp and city background in Blender

• ✅ Edit all voice work

• ✅ Get the first section of the arc out of the way (still in the office - 2 parts)

• ✅ Set up all shots

• ✅ Finish part 3

• ✅ Finish Part 4

• ⭕ Finish Part 5

• Finish Part 6

• Finish part 7

• Finish part 8

• Finish part 9

• Make hand-drawn backgrounds

• Re-record/re-edit Allegra

• Add sound effects + post production

• Release the full arc publicly

Of Love & Lore is officially over, so that's one thing off of my plate. With Love will have its leftover sale start on August 10th, so shipping stuff out will take up some of my time this month. Kacchako's Kitchen is in production, so it's a slow period for me right now. I do have a trip mid-August that will take up some of my working time, but other than that this month is pretty open for me. I'll do my best to get as much done on the arc as possible!

Also, I have to cancel this week's stream - I won't be around tonight and I need a little bit of a break anyway. I'll be streaming again next week.

Thank you for your support! 💕
