SPECIAL Animation Tiers POLL - ideas for POSSIBLE rewards

The number one incredibly important disclaimer is we’re just talking about possibilities. None of what I’m putting in this poll is on the schedule. I’m hoping to get a gauge of your interests in upcoming ideas and perhaps get ideas from you about things you would like to see happening on the Patreon.
As you might know, my goal has always been to bring as much of my art to my friends and fans as I can. I hope to do this as directly as possible. I realize Patreon itself is a barrier but I can’t deny it’s allowed me the financial support to continue making art and animation for you. I’m not here to argue Patreon being a good or bad thing. I can say Patreon allows you to support me in a meaningful way for which I am very grateful.
Okay, let’s look at poll options for things that may or may not be good ideas for the Patreon. I do want to stress there is only so much bandwidth in any month. A lot of times when you add something new and substantial to a system you have to remove something else to allow the needed resources. For me, the number one resource is time. Though many of you might rightfully argue I have another resource I need to work on called skill! Haha!
I mentioned tweaks to the animations and what might that mean?
I’m curious to know what you would think if I was to offer high, or extremely high-resolution movies. We are talking 4K possibly. Another option, might be something like a monthly movie that focused on one transformation for one person and did an in-depth look at all the transformation aspects. There would be long focuses on things like shirt ripping, button popping, shoe destruction and perhaps even facial expressions.
I mention the movies being widely available and what does that mean?
This is one of those hot topics and I'm not sure where to start. I am curious about how many people might still support the Patreon if movies (some or all) were widely available to the non-paying public. I know there are a few creators out there who make all their work public either immediately or after a time. I SUSPECT making the movies more widely available to non-paying fans might bring in a lot more paying supporters because of wider distribution but I don’t know. It’s a tough one since I feel part of the charm of the Animation Tier is you get access to ALL THE MOVIES for your subscription and that’s currently nearly SIX hours. Basically, one month gets you all the months and I think that’s pretty fair.
I like what we have now, don’t get me wrong. Hearing your ideas and looking at your votes does help improve what we have now! If you have any questions or are concerned about anything, please feel free to comment below or message me directly.
One big thing I consider whenever I look at a new idea is how to integrate it into what we already have. I would not want anyone here to feel I’m pulling the rug out from under them by changing up the Patreon in some significant way. I really care for and respect my longtime fans and I feel I have done my best to keep the early spirit of my transformation art alive and well, though some may beg to differ.
So check out the poll! Vote is much as you like!
Thank you again for your support!

Great thinking and thank you! I'm currently considering a few options that are similar to what you mention. Appreciate the comment and support!

About public movie, I voted for both options because both sound right to me, I think you'll definitely get more people interested, but that doesn't mean they will stay suscribed 🤔 I see 2 ideas about that, you could make old ones public (more than a year old) The other idea would be to make some sore of video teaser when a new animation come out, something 30-60sec long, showing some stuff with sound etc to get people interested to see the full version available on patreon 😊

Another goodie! Really am liking this one as an idea!
Ready Art
Yep, I like this idea a lot. I am considering something like a 'movie special' and putting a movie or bits out there for people to enjoy. Thank you for the suggestion!

Perhaps make smaller movies available to the public to give them a taste, but the real powerhouse stuff is patreon exclusive?

To add to my vote above: The best way I feel for Ready to show his work to gain interest is to publish old movies. Perhaps the first color one, as that is a better indication of the kind of quality a Patreon subscriber receives. Oh, and definite +1 on a game! Games can be quite fun. I subscribe to BEGrove as well, as the games that guy produces are quite entertaining (but beware! Making one will consume even more of your time!)
