Yeah, you'd think so. But then you learn that there are 12K of images in chapters 1 to 6 (of which 5.7k in chapter 6), and chapter 7, by my last tally in May, adds shy of another 10k, and that sheds a bit of a different light on "it's just the same 5 stills used over and over again". Just for kicks, take a scene like
Macy's big one in the last chapter, or
the Covens ritual, and start counting the numbers and variations and combinations and backgrounds, and the way it's all scripted together and the pans and the zooms and movements, to see where the timesinks are.
Also, creating the visuals are just part of the work. Story and scripting take more than a fair amount of time too. Time to redo the math, those 4 kilohours of work I spent on chapter 7 'til now weren't all getting high on my own supply.
