Videos vs. Images Poll (Patreon)

Our summer theme schedule comes to an end this week with the last 3 voted themes of baseball, brutes with ladies, and my favorite, SWAT/military (which I can trace back to that big dude in the movie Independence Day). This next poll is a little different and will shape the next few months here.

A little background. AI video was not a thing yet when I first started sharing images on here with the current 5 original recruits per week schedule.

It can take me up to 2 days to create a new character image, from concept to refining details. Average is usually half a day or more. So that's 3-4 days a week working on images. (this does not include time training AI as well, which I'd like to do more of in the future.)

And then animating those images with AI became a possibility! I added videos to the schedule with the weekly Feature Video and shorter Beef Clips.

At this point I've made close to 700 characters and ideally would like to make videos of all of them to extend their personalities and stories more along with continuing The Brute Pit series. But there's only so much time in a week to manage rest and life to avoid burn out.

So I was thinking of modifying the schedule to include more time working on videos and cut down on posting new character images everyday. I would swap the time I would normally be making images with making videos of existing recruits and improving my video skills more rapidly. I don't know how many I could get done in a week, but I could do a few weeks of testing to see where I land.

I do enjoy making new brutes so I was thinking of keeping it to a 'Recruit of the Week' for an image alongside new videos of existing recruits and the Feature Video.

I'd say most of you joined when you saw a video trailer rather than an image, while some of the OG members were here to see the growth. But I do want to know what you prefer if you have a few seconds to vote in the poll below, keeping the things I mentioned above in mind.Much love,-BruteThick
