[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update IV

Added 2022-08-21 18:03:26 +0000 UTC

Greetings,

I'm a bit slow on rendering at the moment because I didn't kept up with the writing of the scenes. Had some trouble with getting the dialogues right. As I progressed more with the writing the last few days, I hope I will have a more consistent flow of rendering next week. And I finished 2 more simple music videos.

DaVinci Resolve

Until now I mostly worked with After Effects for post processing of images and animations. But I want to try out Davinci Resolve. I like the node based system and think it could be useful for setting up templates that are more comfortable to use than in after effects. So I'll do some tests with the free version of this tool in the coming days.

Writing

I had a bit of a problem with the initial sketch that I wrote for this update. Upon diving deeper in writing out each section I noticed that the order of some scenes didn't make sense. The problem was, I had a flow of scenes in mind and didn't really want to step away from it and tried to make it work somehow. However, it still didn't felt naturally. So I changed a good part of the initial sketch and rewrote some sections, but I think this way the story will be more consistent.

Current status

~ 115 rendered and edited images

~ 30% of the writing is done
