Progress Update: 6/16/23
🕑 Added 2023-06-17 03:33:22 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Apologies for the lack of progress update last week; there were some family matters that got in the way (please forgive my vagueness, it's been a bit difficult and has taken the wind out of my sails) but I'm back! Progress has been a bit plodding but steady. The animations are, as we suspected might happen, taking a bit longer than we would have liked; Arc and I have taken to working together in a Discord call throughout the day, and there are frequent hiccups as we have to go researching to discover important visual details.
I also have hit an obnoxious part of the video to edit that has few good visual references to use, and finding suitable ones has been tricky. However, this should change relatively soon and it should be smooth sailing from there.
One thing I managed to do that buoyed my mood was that I got to show the first forty minutes to Atrocity Guide, a fellow YouTuber and someone whose work I admire greatly, and her reaction was extremely positive. (If you haven't seen her work before, she just released a superb video about Zen Master Rama that may be her best yet) My biggest concern has been how well I've communicated the more complicated aspects of EVE Online. I've modeled that part of the script on the way I structured the first section of the Deep Blue video, but EVE is a bit less straightforward. Atrocity has assuaged my concerns, and I can forge ahead much more confidently.
I'll see you all next week!

As someone who plays Eve we are both probably just as excited. You will be blown away by what this game is.

I realized that I've been anticipating this video for around a year and know nothing about EVE Online and hadn't even heard of it until you mentioned the upcoming video. Your videos have that effect. I'm sure that, as usual, it will be absolutely captivating.
Yes!! That work is really incredible. Really looking forward to seeing what you've been creating. Totally unrelated - but if there are any other gurdy players in here... Does anyone know an east coast luthier who does gurdy repairs?
