Greetings,
so after over 1 year i have finally finished this project, I was working on it since the previous summer and i thought i would finish it to the date of the previous video... But those things were alot: animating more dynamic shots, doing lighting, adding hundreds of things like stones, boulders, remodeling labyrinth map to manipulate with walls and ceilling, making another complexes, rooms, reskinning models...
I will recapitulate it shortly: The first 3 scenes (00:00 - 01:36) took me 2 months (whole summer breaks) and had to re-render some parts because of particle issues and lighting problems (even this week of editing the video). The 4th scene (01:36 - 02:41) took me 4 months = from September to 31th of December because of the "fighting" scene and transitions between the shots. And, bro...💀 BROOO... The 5th scene (02:41 - 04:09):
The 5th scene was real killer of mine. Since the start of the year 2024 to end of February I was doing layout process = animating camera, general animation with models (their paths and positions based on specific situation), also layout of some stones and objects that would interact with main models (Michael and William) and positions of "the key objects". Then, whole March i was animating the first 20 seconds of the scene (models of main characters and adjusting camera), then from April, when I had started with the second part of scene (I called it "part after greenscreen"), I started with scraptrap, then michael and lefty (May to June) + puppets tenticles, texures and surroundings. Then the particles and lighting took me whole July and then I had to re-render some parts. After exporting final video in Hitfilm I had to export it at least 10 times again because of 2 issues, then another 1 little issue that was irritating me and then 3 huge issues I missed. Previous week I was also making thumbnail, I was really giving it some feel and making adjustment.
I thought that the project would take at least 6 months, and now, after a year, I am writing this description in sorrowed mood. Theres 2 reasons for it.
It took so long and during this time I fell in love with many songs, with some series and I was enjoying some moments and the feeling I have to end with something that lead me to them is just painful (but I am also looking on the last video and its upload date and tear just fell from my eyes because of how long it took to finish this video).
The 2nd thing is that I thought I will continue and make more projects, but, sadly, I have to end this from this video. I am graduating in 2 years (also ending with my younth xd), I want to spend those 2 years studying as hard as I can, improving in my skills and find a fine job and live convenient life. I just doesnt want to root lifelessly on my chair infront of computer when I have other obligations. This took me 1 year, another video could even 2 years. When I end school and get some time, I may return to animating again. I wanted to do at least another 3 videos. But since I have other things, I can tell that this series ended its 1st chapter and I hope you will like it.
I will be still animating (learning in new mine imator versions ( I have used pre release 4 version since 2022)) and maybe something could pop out sometimes. I want to thank you for all of your support and comments, they really make me a day everytime I see one and are motivating me. You can subscribe me and share this and other videos (mainly from this series) among others and crediting me, I would be happy if those videos got some awareness, I gave into them huge time to make :). Thank you for those years
ILoveU 💗💗💗
