Update 11/05 - Set the sky aflame, we've got KEVIN PLUSHE
🕑 Added 2023-11-05 19:56:10 +0000 UTCCan you believe it's November already?
I sure can, it's what happens after October, as it is the 11th month of the year.
But it's also two weeks since Bupdate, so you know what that means!
Hey all, Earndil here with another POST.
How have you been? Good I hope?
If not, you may consume ONE (1) Ambrosia fruit from the storage chest on the right.
What has been happening in the production chat lately, I hear you ask?
『HUNTER: THE PARENTING』
Well, thanks to everyone's diligent efforts (Rude Rubicante, Eliphus, Ironirocal) we have ALMOST finished up the last of our very necessary fullbody pieces for the TTS-Style scenes (for newcomers, this is any scene shot from the side, and viewing the entire/most of the body of a character, reminiscent of our old work with ItEHaTTSD (funny abbreviation that EVERYONE uses)).
It's a huge amount of progress for us since it will allow us to quickly and efficiently produce those scenes, and all scenes using the models going forward.
Production of fully paneled scenes continues at pace thanks to Garrot, and yields some very funny WIP images.
Our dear Cockpuncher3 has now FINALLY finished the storyboard for EP4 and has, for the first time, joined his fellow illustrators in the Panels Pit, fully realising some of the best art his fantastic storyboard had to offer.
Alfa and Karl are still slaving away at animation, and everything looks utterly ridiculous that has been created thus far. Here's a yet another short little example that we will relegate to a link for today!
And of course doing the lion's share of our audio work currently is Dr. White who has been filling the role quite admirably and continues to be a very valued part of our crew in this capacity.
This is all in service of saying that progress is being made, though as to be expected we're still not even half-way done with it by this point. That is NOT to say however that we don't predict this to be delayed too long, remember that we are confident that we can avoid the glacial release schedules of our old TTS days, but as quality goes up, so too does the time investment.
☉ SCRIPT-WRITING: More Shorts perhaps?
Now, you may notice that in all of the prior paragraph there was no mention of either Me nor SpeakerD?
That, my little gulchards, is because we scriptwriters have been busy working on scripts for Shorts! No! Not the PANT!
In an effort to provide people with... SOMETHING at least inbetween larger releases, we have decided to try out using Youtube's Shorts system to provide 30 second or 1 minute long videos showing some little aspect of WoD that could be interesting, entertaining, or just absolutely fucking stupid, which can fall under either of the two.
We've decided on variably showing small aspects of WoD, showing some of our little corner of this World of Darkness in Norfolk, and just funny things that come to mind.
So far we have conjured together some rather humorous scripts where Kevin and Sergeant Detective Guy Chapman have to get along at work, and Kevin's a vampire, so like... that's pretty weird right? Does he scream at people? You know he does! Is Guy affable, and generally aloof? You bet he is! Will they decipher the mystery of the Mayan Temple? Odds are, no. But we hope the little snippets will whet your appetites for any future big episodes all the same. These Shorts are currently on track to be produced AFTER we finish the upcoming Episode 4, since we currently want all hands on deck to cobble it together.
『NORFOLK WIZARD GAME』
On the other side of the globe, in Norfolk, VA, work continues at pace on prepping the audio for the Norfolk Wizard Game, Speaker's very powerful Mage Liveplay that we have been working on!
Dr. White is still preparing that to sound very epic, so that will hopefully also serve as a font of entertainment while we work on EP4. Here is a teaser of his work for EP1, staring both Bill and Sybil:

Odoroshi, whom you may or may not know as Grimal in HTP, Sybil in the Wizard Game, as well as from her dalliances with Narrative Declaration, AS WELL as from her work as our esteemed Logo Maker, has put together a very slick looking RPG layout for the Mage game, and we're seeing it all come together in our final YouTube release of the Awakenings after EP4.
Here it is!
If you are unfamiliar with what exactly the Wizard Game even is, we do have a link here to the Spotify playlist for four Pilot episodes starring four different characters, which serve as a Prologue to our extensively edited, highly immersive RPG antics.
https://open.spotify.com/show/3V1qZ4lGq7YtqkPOeuELEE?si=3b0f8e559a6a48e4
They also exist on Apple Podcasting and, like, EVERY SINGLE OTHER PODCASTING APP we think so you can look them up there!
These Awakenings will themselves receive videos after EP4 gets released, we have an ABSOLUTE FLOODGATE of content after we get this HTP episode done GOND.
Finally...
Oh yes.
That's right.
THE KEBVIN. THE KEVINGE.
THE KEVIN PLUSHIE.
WE'RE GETTING MORE DETAILS ON IT.
YOU GUYS ARE GONAN LIKE IT. LOOK AT HIM UP THERE HE LOOKS LIKE HE CAN SIT ON YOUR DRESSER AND CAST SPELLS LIKE BLOOD LASER AT YOU. HE'S GOING TO.
More details on it will be revealed soon enough!!!
Colour is going to change slightly in the final product.
That should be everything as of right now, keep your eyes on this webzone for anything further from here!
Hope you all have a poppeng rest of your day!
Until next time, have a good one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
