I'm still working on posing scene 8. So far I've posed about 70 shots. It's not much considering I've planned 280 renders for that scene. However, I've started with the difficult part and the most complex poses. The remaining 200 shots will be easier and faster to pose.

When I decided to split Day 6 into three parts, I roughly estimated that I would be writing about 30 000 words and pose about 500 renders for each part. I thought that I could do that in about 4 months.

Day 6 part 1 isn't done and I've already overstepped my estimations in word count, renders and time. Let's be honest, it's a failure.

If I keep going like that, Day 6 part one will probably hit the 50k words, the thousand renders and won't be released before this fall at best. These long development times are as frustrating for me as they are for you and they're clearly not in my best interest. So I have to do something. I won't write less nor make fewer renders but I can change my splitting plans.

I'm thinking of pushing scenes 11, 12 and 13 to part 2. I will probably also split the content I've planed for parts 2 and 3 further.

I'm still unsure how I will split my content in the future but the more I think about it, the more I believe that short and frequent releases are better than big and rare ones (e.g. a smaller release every 3 or 4 months is better than a big one every nine months).

I'll think about it some more but at that point, I feel like it's an obvious and logical decision.

The quick sum up :

• Day 6 Part 1 will contain 13 scenes.
• Scenes 1 to 9 are written.
• Scenes 1 to 7 are posed and rendered.
• Scenes 1 to 5 are coded.
• 39249 words, 3567 lines of code, 508 shots are posed and 465 are rendered.
• I'm currently posing scene 8.
