I finished writing scene 18 and, until today, I was happy with what I came up with. It's 12.5 k words long, and, obviously, the biggest scene of the update.

I cut it and prepared the script for posing. I planned 356 shots.

I reworked the set I build a few months ago and started posing the scene.

About one hundred and fifty of these shots are going to be painful to work on as they contain a lot of characters, and clothes in need of simulation to fit properly. The other two hundred shots will be easier to deal with as they won't contain as many characters.

I started working on the painful ones.

Working on the posing I realized that I made a mistake. There is a part of the scene that I just won't be able to render. That part is about 1.5k words and 50 shots long. I'll have to rewrite it.

Not everything is entirely bad, however, as I will be able to recycle some of the content. The dialogues are still relevant for the most part, and only the descriptions and the action itself have to be reimagined. And the "good news" is that I already have an idea and I think it'll be better than the original segment. 

I'll keep working on the posing for now. I'll rework the faulty part when I'll reach it, in a hundred render.

The quick sum up :

• Day 6 Part 2 will contain 8 scenes (Scenes 11 to 18).
• Scenes 11 to 18 are written.
• Scenes 11 to 17 are posed and rendered.
• Scenes 11 and 17 are logic ready.
• 26 453 words, 3074 lines of code. 468 shots are posed and rendered.
• I'm currently posing scene 18.
