So today, I decide to do an announcement about this hiatus. I was doing a slight polish on Yuki’s model, and I finish that, and I will get to the other characters and shouldn’t take long for the rest.
I am on progress to make a BTS video for Ash’s Vacation. It’s should be about few minutes long and will go over technical details of how I made an AR like scene by having a model fit to the pre-rendered background. It will go over of how I saved the clips and how I produced voice clips from AT&T TTS. It will announce about Yuki’s Story and seeing the main Tumblr page.
The announcement will be about Yuki’s Story in ONA format, meaning I can make it look close to an anime with 3D models that has anime like shading and having eyebrows overlapping the hair. It will show a demo of Yuki fighting Ron with an edge line shader that will be used to show more facial details. I was also testing a lot of toon shadings and effects to make it close to an anime as possible. I did some new technical enhancements to do great video management and be ready to make 4k videos when the time comes.
Well, I thought May will be my busiest, but not a lot. Though, I had some business with my current house getting sold and spending time thinking about the ONA. ONA is gonna be my biggest project. Not sure how long the video will be. The script has started, but not finished yet. However, the concepts are. June will be my busiest month actually and confirmed that me and my family will be moving near the end of the month. That’s why I hold off from making any new videos because I don’t know if I can progress any further and halt the progress when I start moving. So, I decide to hold off and make scripts for the videos instead. I will make the scripts and do some planning.
Also, I may go back to do Pretty Rhythm models again since I have no other videos to do yet. After unpacking everything and help out on the new house for a week or two and got internet, I will most likely do video progress again. In the meantime, models, scripts, experiments, Yuki’s Story journals and MMD post, and blogs on tech stuff will be coming.
