Blog Update

Hey guys! Very minor update here. This is basically just to inform you all on future plans and what is going on.

As some you may know, I have been attempting to complete a scene a day for the month of November (a.k.a., taking the screen shots for a spoiler section), and so far, I have not only succeeded, but have surpassed that goal! Some scenes were very short, admittedly, so I managed to complete two of them some days. So what's the deal? Where is the content?

Well, when I go to begin an act, I start by story boarding it. Initially, act six was planned to be in two parts. After story boarding, it looked like it might be 3 parts. Then 1,257 screenshots later, it looks like it might end up being 4-6 parts. To put that in perspective, on average, each act ranges somewhere around 350-400 screenshots. All of them have now been taken, and I can begin the first draft of writing, but I'm a little hesitant with the new site being launched.

I am sure it is stable, and I have little doubts that it will be reverted, but I spend too much time writing on here to risk it just yet. So for the time being, I am jumping straight into shooting act seven; which, story boarded, should be 3 parts and is also the final act of Chapter Three. Once that is done, I will begin writing, and there will be a steady stream of updates once that begins! 

To prove that I'm telling the truth, here are some shots from Chapter Three Act Six: The Hunt.

Warning: Minor spoilers. But I did try to choose images that will reveal the absolute minimal or offer either only intriguing or no context.

I like the second picture the best. It's perfect in colors, lightning and face expression.

Yes, looking forward for your next episode. Don't forget your promise ;)    - Many pictures (some nudity) divided in spoilers for fast opening and easy reading. Thanks. :)

I have not, Eva! Next part will be divided in parts, as mentioned. So while overall it is much longer, each installment will be short and sweet. :)

I'm happy about your progress and I am looking forward for your entries. It's funny how 1257 screenshots turn into 3-4 parts for you. My screenshot conversion rate from raw data to story is about 7:1 because I take waaay to many and afterwards it takes forever to look through them and pick the best. I should really be more picky about what to take screenshots of... but then I am always worried I am missing something in the end.

I always thought I took more than necessary, but after meeting more and more storytellers, I have come to realize that I actually take less than average. O.o I find that I take more depending on if I think I will need to do more writing or not. I don't like to clump big chunks of dialogue with one photo, so I take a lot more pictures for simple talking scenes. I'd actually say you're in the norm :D
