Project Ideas (Patreon)

I'm gonna go over some of the main ideas I have for potential upcoming projects.

This is a post I wanted to make for the last few weeks, but I've been so swamped with commissions that I haven't even really had the time to start talking about any of the ideas let alone begin production. I still have to prioritize commissions just because they make substantially more money which allows me to continue doing this, but I really do want to work on some of my own projects too.

Project X Sequels

It still kind of blows me away the receptions Project X hit, so a sequel seems to be a really good follow up. It also helps that I'm really in a Resident Evil mood lately having completed RE7 and 8 for the first time as well as beating RE4 Remake at launch. I replayed RE2 and 3 Remakes and I'm already replaying RE4. There are two main sequel ideas for Project X.

Claire

This one will follow pretty closely in structure to Project X. It would be predominantly pictures with audio voice overs and minimal animated elements. Claire will be persuaded to join in Annette's experiment. She may not like the idea at first, but she sure will love it by the end.

Due to the character changes, I think a lot of the scientific build up and filler can be reduced so that it goes to the action much faster. Since Annette is still part of recording the experiment, the movie timeline of going through the pictures would be reduced as well. I want to focus heavily on Claire here, but there would be room for possibilities of both of them working together.

To counter the reduction in other animation, I may dabble with the idea of the short loops sprinkled in as corrupted footage or something like that. High quality images are the focus, but some extra animated spice would help change things up.

Ada

This project continues loosely based off the ending teaser of Project X. It would be a fully animated project. This is sort of combined with ideas I've had for Ada before. In this version, Ada uses the information she's learned from Project X to save Leon. She gets a little more than she expected but is nonetheless quite successful.

This movie would likely only feature 3 or so main scenes since it would be fully animated. Ada would have scenes on top and bottom for Mr. X, so there would be variety in action.

Other Projects

These are some wildcard project ideas that I just have enough of a creative spark to possibly jump on. These are also fully animated projects.

Ciri

This would be very much like my old classic movies. Anyone following me since the SFM days probably remembers the trilogy of Witcher movies I did before with Yennefer, Triss, and Shani. I kind of think Ciri is overdue for such a project. The structure for this is very much the same as those other Witcher movies. Ciri, out of money, loses a bet playing gwent. There would be many group scenes.

I haven't done much with the Witcher for a while, so I don't know how much interest there is though.

Malenia

Now, this is a real wildcard. I probably never mentioned playing Elden Ring. While there wasn't much in the way of waifus in that game, Malenia certainly has... something alluring. Anyway, the project idea here is actually quite straightforward as movies go. It would be pretty minimal in terms of story setup and dialogue, and the project would be more like a collection of extended loops than anything. The idea here is that the "player character" loses in many various ways.

An ambitious bonus to this project is that I might be able to use it as a testbed for fluid animations. This is tech that would be very useful to learn for bigger projects. It would also probably be the best place to learn since the rest of the project isn't that intricate.

As I said, this idea is pretty out there, but sometimes creative sparks just fly.

Notable Omissions

Fan favorites, Dragon Age and Mass Effect, have been left off the list for now. I've been planning the Morrigan project for a long time, but that sort of fizzles out every now and then. I think I need to see more of Dreadwolf for the motivation to break out into full production. As for Mass Effect, I have some ideas and plans, but I'm not sure if any of them are going to work out. I also figure if I gave any idea, it would pretty much instantly be the most popular, and I'm looking for something a little different for now.

These are the main projects I've narrowed it down to. It's not really a poll, but I am looking for feedback.
