Arc 9 Info & Update!
Added 2024-04-11 16:20:44 +0000 UTCHi all!
With the script for the Office AU Arc 9 finished, I'll be moving into the storyboarding phase, woooo! If you catch tonight's stream, you can watch me start the process π
Now that I know what I'm in for (which is..............quite..........a lot π) I have also figured out how I'll be proceeding with sharing it early to you all. Since most of this arc will be taking place in one environment, with continuous action, I have to treat it like one big scene. This makes it difficult to work on "parts" each week to release here.
SO, instead, I'll be sharing more behind the scenes working progress with the $5 and $8 tiers and will be providing updates and eventually completed parts to everyone (probably without final sound). I do not have a schedule since I have no idea how long this arc is going to take.
Here's my general plan:
Storyboard the entire arc
Time everything out into a rough animatic (does this mean I'll have to record all of the lines myself? Probably....oh no lmao)
Send animatic to VAs and order voice work
Build the blimp and city background in Blender (nooooooooooooo π)
Get the first section of the arc out of the way (still in the office - 2 parts)
Set up all shots + rough animation pass for the whole arc
Key frames for the whole arc
Inbetweens and color by part (I have it split up into 7 parts)
Release these parts as they get completed to Patreon
Add sound effects + post production
Release the full arc publicly
As you can see, there is A LOT that needs to go into this arc, and it will definitely take a long time. So on top of the weekly Thursday stream, I'll be adding more streams for the $5 and $8 tiers.
π SUPER IMPORTANT - I ask that everyone here PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep everything you see for arc 9 a secret!!!!!!!! π If I find out about ANY leaks, I will have to reevaluate how much I end up sharing early, if anything at all. I really don't want things to come to that, so please respect me, the VAs, and everyone else who pays to support this series, thank you!
Whew, that's a lot to read, so if you got this far - thanks! π I'm really excited to get started! Let's hope I can keep up that energy and get through this arc in one piece π π
Comments
I'm not entirely sure yet, but it will probably end up being work for arc 9 anyway. I want to try and have the least amount of spoilers as possible, but idk how long that's going to last lol π

2024-04-11 19:05:08 +0000 UTCI've been a lurker but just want to say thank you so much for all the hard work you put into this project - I dont think I ever fully knew how much work just goes into one animatic and the level of motivation and planning you have to complete it is astounding. I am really looking forward to this arc and cant wait for the finished product, and at the same time I dont mind waiting for as long as it takes so that you feel happy with it all, because I know by then it will all be worth it! Thank you for the update and I hope you have a blast with this one!
