This week I finished the labels that represent the transition from the prologue to chapter 1. The second label was originally planned to be shorter, but I kind of got lost and went ham with the number of renders because I think it deserved it.
I will share more renders in future progress updates, but for these 2 labels specifically I don’t want to because you would immediately see where the chapter is going.
I also took an evening to work further on animations. I hope I have found the style that I want to use later in the main scenes. I tried out templates from another vendor which include 2 different speed settings and a start and finish section.
The bonus scene with Ella was quite simple, as it was my very first attempt in this area. 2 simple 14 frame loops with 4 camera settings each without any movement (slight up and down movements were added later in video editing).
The new scene has loops of up to 330 frames, which will be useful if I want to do close ups and show facial expressions that last longer than 1 second. Also, this allows me to do some camera movements and zoom in and out a bit. Please keep in mind I am still just doing this since last month, I won’t become a pro within such a short time. I see progress and I think I am ready to deliver some nice scenes for the main characters in the future.
The render queue estimates a render time of 9 days for the entire animation of the bonus scene. I hope it's worth it in the end. I'm not blocked by it, as I'm torturing my 5-year-old system, which is just sitting around anyway, good enough for simple scenes like this.
There is also a member exclusive post with some lewd previews for the new bonus scene. I restricted it as a thank you to the people who already helped me out financially, because all the assets in there were bought with these contributions.
That’s the progress so far. Until next week then.
