Progress Report - January 29, 2024

lordaardvarksfm post Progress Report - January 29, 2024 from patreon

Hello, everyone!

So it turns out that I had slightly jumped the gun when writing last week's Progress Report. I thought the audio that Milly had sent in was all of her audio, when it was in fact only her non-dub audio.

I'm not quite sure what the hold-up is, but as of writing, I have yet to receiv...

Hello, everyone!

Corsair is humming along. Had a slight scheduling hiccup, but as of this morning, that has been resolved.

All of Ivan's and Innie's audio, as the alien and Artemis respectively, has been processed and installed. Additionally, all of their non-sex dialogue has been lip-synced as well. Let me tell y...

Hello, everyone!

I straight-up forgot to make yesterday's post. Oops.

Progress on Corsair is going well. I've managed to get all the scenes built and lit. In total, there are 6 scenebuilds: 3 major scenes, 2 hallways, and 1 exterior shot.

I've got all the core animation locked in and finalized, which combine...

Hello, everyone!

I hope you all had a great New Year. Mine was surprise-eventful, in the sense that I had plans to put together stuff for the January 1st Progress Report but my friends spontaneously decided we'd be doing things for New Years starting at like 7pm. Needless to say, I didn't get that stuff done, and that's...

Hello everyone, and welcome to the last Progress Report of the year!

I am very excited to announce that it comes with good news, as well! The news comes in two parts, so let's split this up into two sections, shall we?

lordaardvarksfm post Progress Report - December 19, 2023 from patreon

Hello, everyone.

I'll be frank with you all: I am extremely distressed and despondent.

Over the past handful of weeks, in the attempt to find a good 4-minute minivid, I have animated and discarded 10 minutes of animation across 4 different projects, not counting the 3 ideas I spent full days exploring but never go...

Hello, everyone.

I meant to get this post out yesterday, in a bid to slowly correct the Progress Reports drifting. But by the time it was finally done, it was just too late. Then I've just been too busy today to post this any sooner.

But yeah. You might be wondering, where's Brigitte, DVa, and Zarya?

Hello, all!

I apologize for the very late Progress Report.

I've spent the past week going through a dozen or so different ideas for minivids, putting together storyboards, vibing them out, seeing what all works and what all doesn't. It's been a week where we need to have a serious discussion of what all "being pro...

Hello, everyone!

I apologize for this post being a day late. Had a busy weekend and ended up just getting passed-out tired early on Monday, didn't have a chance to properly put this post together.

As you can probably tell from this week's poster, my attention's been a bit more divided than over the past few weeks....

Hello, everyone!

I apologize for being a day late for this week's Progress Report. I wanted to make sure the system I was working on yesterday actually worked before making the post, and I just wasn't quite able to get it before end-of-day on Monday.

Hello, everyone!

Sorry for this post being a day late. I wanted to get this system fully functional before I posted about it.

Which naturally raises the question of "what is this system?" And, maybe more pertinently... "what the fuck am I looking at?"

Last week, I put out a list of the things I need to do ne...

Hello, everyone!

I hope you've had a fantastic Halloween. To celebrate, have a ~spooky~ bit of update news: I'm still focusing on UE5 stuff!

I said last week that I was hoping to wrap up my UE5 experiments and move back to working on Overbreed, but that didn't happen. There's always something more to explore.

Hello, everyone!

Last week, I noted how I was having a rough week and how it was frustrating me. This week, I decided to do something about it.

Namely, I decided to explicitly write out a daily schedule for myself to adhere to. A big part of this schedule is because my sleep schedule has been slipping again, as yo...

Bleh.

Hasn't been a good week, if the fact this Monday Progress Report is being published on Wednesday, with a single unfinished image. That's only half the intended image.

That's really the crux of it, too. "Only half of the intent." That's been my week. Anything I try to work on, I only get about halfway through...

Last week, I noted how I was in the final stages of the Life is Strange minivid, that I had the final 4k render going and it was just a matter of waiting for it to finish, editing, and releasing.
