Dev Update #224


Scene 27.

I made some significant progress in writing the scene. Segments 1, 2 and 3 are written, and we are right under 5k words. Segments 1 and 3 are kind of ready, as I've already reviewed and edited them this week. Segment 2 might need a little bit more work. I'm very happy with how Segment 3 came out. I hope I'll be able to render it properly.

There are still 2 segments to write for that scene. Segment 4 will be very short while segment 5 should be a bit longer. However, I think I can write them in 2k words. This means I would be at around 7k words and about 250 planned shots total for the scene. Which is way better than the 10k words and 350 renders of my first estimations. 100 renders being like 2 weeks of posing at the very least.

I really tried to expunge unnecessary descriptions and try a more "show don't tell" approach. I hope it works.

I started working on the new assets I will need to pose the scene. And I will need a lot of those. I already have one environment out of the seven I'll need. I'll probably have to build some myself through kitbashing. And there are a couple of interesting possibilities directly on the Daz Store. However, I need something very specific for one of the segments, I have an option on the Daz store but I don't think it will fit as it is and I will have to modify it a lot. On the other hand, I've found some incredibly nice-looking environments in another store, but they are not built for Daz. Technically, I should still be able to use them but I'm not sure how much work it would require for me to adapt them nor if they will render properly. Also... they are quite pricy. So... I guess I'll have to think this through and make a decision quickly as I hope to be done with the writing and get ready for posing next week.

The quick sum up :

  • Day 6 Part 4 will contain 2 new scenes: scenes 26 and 27.
  • Day 6 Part 4 will contain 2 reworked scenes from Day 2, Scenes 1 and 10.
  • Day 2, Scene 1 and 10 have been rewritten, posed and rendered. 
  • Day 6, Scene 26 has been written, posed and rendered
  • 9549 words of reworked content, and 10251 words of new content so far.
  • 2007 lines of code so far.
  • 466 shots are planned, 466 are posed, and 466 are rendered.
  • I'm working on writing Scene 27.
