Hi all!
Just to keep you all in the loop.
I've now rendered all the images for Ivy's scene, and all the animations. I've edited about half of them, and now just finishing up compositing the 'big' shot. Quite a tricky one as it involves tracking multiple parts of the body, but I think I've managed it. The sound on my pc stopped working as I was doing as it's a ridiculously processor heavy process to handle essentially, 12 2-point trackers in the same comp for 300 frames.
However, I think it's come out really well (no pun intended).
I've also played through a few different routes, so some testing has already been done. Like I've said before, Aimee's scene is done already, so the next release will be in the reigion of...
61 animations
675 images
Ivy's scene has been a bit of a nightmare, truth be told... It's a LOT of poses, and because Ivy is one of the 'lesser' involved characters, there's far fewer variables to play on her than with other characters. I also didn't want this to be a 'you missed one chance, so now you're screwed' scenaio, so there's a couple of ways to play it.
I'm certainly going to need to add a couple more images to it, but the scene is pretty much done from a creative standpoint. I may want to add in a few more variable nods here and there, but I THINK we should be on for a valentines day release (though I'm out that evening, so it might end up coming on the 15th or 16th). I'm going to try to have it ready for then though.
I'm still not going to share any images with you for these 2 scenes as it will make them more of a surpise I think.
I hope you're all having a great start to the week, and I'll do my very best to get you something fun for next weekend!

(Oh, I got to use a new soundpack for Ivy's scene too... You'll have to let me know if you like her voice and I'll commission some more!)
