BIG UPDATE ABOUT PREVIEW - READ ON
The latest preview is something I am looking to move to for the monthly movie previews. As we all know there are TWO tier which benefit from this - the Animation (Movie) Tier and our Preview (formerly GIF) Tier. I want to put out some of my thinking and if you have any thoughts or comment - please feel free to chime in using the spirit of cooperation!
I want to bring as much awesome art and animation as I can to EVERYONE and want to respect and recognize people at our various contribution levels. Some notes:
Notes on Previews (and Preview Tier)
- Previews at this level will likely occur at a rate of three, maybe four a month. Doing 12 or so of this level would amount to pretty well releasing the movie itself. That's definitely not the point of the preview tier.
- The previews are going to lean towards showing multiple cuts at once
- It's very possible most previews will have multiple transformations or cuts of transformations.
- Preview will have captions now (if captions are needed)
- Sound effects and sound production overall will be included.
- I don't have an EXACT schedule of how this will shake out but I'm imaging a once a week (or so) release schedule.
- A low res version of previews is released to the public to help build awareness for the movies (as it has always been)
- I will be adjusting the wording of the tier to reflect this in the coming week.
Notes on Movies (and Movie Tier)
- Movies are still planned to be released MONTHLY! At the moment I have no plans to do multi month production movies. I don't think we're quite there and that might change down the line.
- The monthly movie will have more transformation scenes than are shown in the previews - this has ALWAYS been the case and will continue to happen.
- Movies will have many more "short cuts" in order to increase pacing and, for lack of a better word, excitement. The idea here means a lot more video production but I feel it will bring YOU much more interesting transformation movies
- The sound library is constantly being upgraded. This is ongoing but worth a mention.
- As before, I will be focusing on the transformation aspects while keeping the fun storytelling bits.
- Types of transformations will be considered and implemented. This includes focuses on ONE transformation happening slowly as well as other fan favs.
- Different characters and locations are also on the list of possible!
Some Final Thoughts
When it comes down to it - you allow me to do this amazing work. I could not do this without your support. It's important to me you feel your hard earned cash is being directly put into making awesome art and I hope the art shows I'm serious.
Do YOU have any thoughts on this? I know some might prefer the old versions or perhaps have another idea. I'm always open to hearing what people want and working towards a cooperative solution.
In the end, I want to keep all the good foundation and build a larger community of people here. That means trying new things out and adjustments as we go forward.
Remember though - we are in this together!
Thank you again and more to come,
-Ready
