Progress update #5
Hey there, my amazing peeps! Stray in the house with some scorching updates, but first, let me shower you with praise for being the awesome squad that you are. ๐
Now, down to the nitty-gritty:
๐๏ธ DAZ Studio Deep Dive: So, I'm still on that DAZ Studio adventure, and I won't lie, there have been some questionable results. But you know what? I'm improving every day. Models for Steve (our MC) and one of the love interests are now locked, loaded, and ready for some wicked renders. Oh, and the cherry on top โ I've got my hands on not one, but two 3060TI's. Thanks to an awesome soul who loaned them to me until January, my rendering game just got a turbo boost. ๐จ๐จ
๐ก Info Drops Are a Go: We've officially kicked off the info drops! This week, I posted Steve's profile. Next Wednesday, be ready to dive into the profile of one of the lovely love interests. There will be five main girls in Cascade Falls (yeah, I had to "promote" a side character to LI status during the scriptwriting). By November 15, you'll know all the main characters, and then I'll start tossing sneak peeks into the story itself. Buckle up, folks!
๐ค Why 3D, You Ask?: You might be wondering why I'm tinkering with 3D instead of just writing. Well, the initial plan was to finalize the writing for the first episode and then dive into scene creation and rendering. But, as I pondered it over, I realized I need to give you lovely folks something to sink your teeth into, and prove to myself that I can handle the full development cycle with writing, coding, and art. So, I'm making a little tweak to the plan—I'm creating a game demo! It's going to be the real deal, with art, music, choices, and all the bells and whistles. It's a one-day adventure with four scenes, six different sets, about 400 renders, and a whopping 500 lines of dialogue. ๐ฎ
๐ Script Breakdown for Shots: Oh, I almost forgot to mention, I've started breaking down the script for individual shots. Picture it as a detailed Excel sheet where I meticulously jot down pose and render descriptions for every single dialogue line.
Turned out I might have a touch of OCD because I just can't stop editing and changing the dialog. Every time I glance at the script, I find myself making tweaks. Iโm out of control, folks. Someone, please stop me!
โ๏ธ Word Count Update: Meanwhile, the script is growing—it's now a whopping 28,734 words long! That's a lot of words, folks.
๐ Big Shoutout: And last but not least, I've got to give a massive shoutout to the r/AVNCommunity sub. The community and mods there have been unbelievably kind and supportive, way more than I deserve. So, thank you from the bottom of my heart!
That's it for now, folks! Drive safe, stay healthy, and keep being the fantastic crew that you are. Stray Paranormal, signing off! ๐๐ป
