II-XII: Personal Touch & Season II recap
Added 2023-11-01 19:40:13 +0000 UTC
The final entry of Season II. Let's skim over several main things I singled out for myself, and then move on to the next one:
- Overall, the current format proved to be sustainable. I liked making the season at my pace, but I kept feeling (and complaining) that I could get more creative fulfillment than that. The question I kept asking myself was "How do I make more EC episodes without rushing them?".
I came to a conclusion this wasn't the correct question to brainstorm. More on that at the end of the post. - I've been measuring my productivity in "days between posts" the entire time. As reluctant as I was towards tying my creative responsibilities to days of the week, this might be the next adultly grownup step I have to at least try.
- The difference between how much text is usually within the story and how much is reasonable to fit into the image is growing steadily, so, as you may have noticed, the extended versions of stories is already a feature of the Consultant tier, beginning from Season III.
- My Deviantart viewers, unsurprisingly, love shiny and restraints. Good news: so do I, and there will be more of that.
So, what is the next one? EC is officially renewed for Season III, yes. However, after some more head-scratching at the drawing board, I should also be able to bring life back to The White Mall with a brand new, more thought-out concept and story to diversify my creative efforts on a regular basis. No official details on that so far, but stay tuned for them.
