Weekly Progress #30 (Patreon)

This Week's Finished Projects
So the first project I finished was the Overwatch animation commission. I don't really have a lot to add that was already explained in Week 29's post. Instead of using step tangents like I originally intended for Zenyatta's action scenes, I instead used frame-by-frame animation. This made Zenyatta's movements much more fast-paced and action-packed. The animation should come out today at 1PM as part of a double upload. For now, here are the final scene shots from the video.

In an ironic twist, I managed to finish my “Sakura's Love Problem” video. Originally, I thought I wouldn't be able to finish this animation until next week, but the fact that I created my own Viseme presets, like I did with the Trunks video made things go a lot faster than I originally thought. I will admit that the final couple of seconds of the video was freaking awesome and I did burst out laughing numerous times when animating it. This was thanks to the acting from MinaMinaVA and Marion Toro, whom you guys should check out when you get the chance. Anyway, I was originally going to release the video the last week of May, but I decided to release it a couple days after the Boruto anime premiere since it might pick up traffic during search if I release the video around that time. For now, here are a few screenshots.

This Week's Ongoing Projects
I finally got started on working on my Bad Jojokes Collab entry. Here's a little background history about the entry: when I was working on my entry, I originally wanted to use the video that MasokoX lended his voice for. However, since a lot of collaborators are using Kira jokes for their entries, I switched my entry to be Pucchi teaching a theology class. Only that he shows his adoration of Dio in the process. Like  in the case of the Naruto animation, I made  my own Visemes for Pucchi and realized that doing so is making work for him progress a lot faster. I anticipate that the entry will be finished sometime next week. For now, here are a few screenshots from the video.

I also started animating some more shots for the Happy music video. I'm hoping that by animating 5-6s snippets will make it easier to edit, but we'll see. 

Only other thing I did this week was recruiting voice actors for the Danganronpa parody I've written the script for several weeks ago. Thus far, I got Naomified to voice Junko, Tara Braun to voice Kirigiri, Gammalad to voice Motoko, and Giant Tabby to voice Monokuma. Keep in mind that there's a lot of other roles to be filled for this video, so I don't see myself working on the video for the next coming months.

This Week's New Ideas
The only new idea I have is for a Saga of Tanya of the Evil parody. For the parody, I was hoping for it to be about her finding out that Being X is actually Kanye West. In other words, the video is just going to be me making fun of the anime and Kanye West. The problem is that the only working Kanye West model costs $140. One of my SFM friends told me I could probably make him in fuse, but I don't see myself working on this video anytime soon. 

T-shirt Progress
I forgot to mention that I will be commissioning my friend, Sir Pelo, to work on the T-Shirts. Thus far, he started work on the first shirt, which is the “Smoke Weed Everyday” Plutia shirt. He still has to color it in, but it still looks pretty epic.  Also, depending on the site chosen for selling the shirts, I will be giving all my Patrons a 10%-15% discount on the shirts. 

And that's basically it! I just want to remind you guys again, that I do have a Discord server in which other Patrons are on. I'm pretty active there and highly recommend you guys checking it out! Once again, thank you guys for reading and for your support! I'll continue to do my best!
