Episode 11 Update - 10/03/25 (Patreon)

View Unblocked Image [SPOILER WARNING]

Alright. Almost finished.

- Hiring out for lighting was a good idea. I have learned so much about light this time around am now find myself way more comfortable with Blender nodes in general. All the lighting is now finished except for Scene F. The episode now looks, in my opinion, simultaneously like a faithful continuation and an upgrade of the look of previous episodes.

- I've been rendering frames non-stop. I my PC and Laptop simultaneously run renders 24/7 and now have thousands and thousands of frames of the final episode. I'm trying to tie it all down.

The episode is now more rendered out than not. Here's a lowdown of everything:

VISUALS

SCENE A - 100% Rendered, SFX 100% Complete

Completely done.

SCENE B - 90% Rendered, SFX 50% Complete

Mostly done. Waiting on one SFX guy. I can plug in his work and finish once delivered.

SCENE C - 100% Rendered, SFX 90% Complete

Almost entirely done. Only missing one small effect, which is to be added at the end.

SCENE D - 90% Rendered, SFX 90% complete

Almost there. Lit and nearly completely rendered, but missing a few special effects.

SCENE F - 0% Rendered, SFX Incomplete

Not done. Missing major lighting and special effects elements.

SCENE X - 0% Rendered, SFX 80% complete

Almost done. Just need to finish the effects of one part and render it all out.

SOUND

- Music is near complete - Two songs remain: one 10 second section and an end credits song. The last section will be delivered to me on Monday. I'm still figuring out the end credits song, but it is low-priority.

- My sound design guy unfortunately dropped out. I now have two prospective sound people ready to go.

- The current Sound Mix was dropped back in my lap yesterday and just today, I got all the plugins working. There's actually quite a lot done, but it's still missing key parts. I need to make comprehensive notes before passing it to the potential new sound people.

I really wanted to finish by now, but it's not finished yet. It will be finished soon, and I'll tell you as soon as it is.Very Best Patrons:
