Quick Update from Ready (Patreon)
Content
Hey all and thank you so much for your support here on the Patreon and elsewhere. I want to first say BIG THANKS to all the new and the returning patrons. I deeply and truly appreciate you putting down your hard earned ducats towards the goal of BE/GTS/FMG and a lot more.
Progress on the upcoming animation
It's jamming along quite well and I am hoping to get ahead of of my schedule to bring you EXTRA cuts and additional transformation scenes. I have been working every night and all my weekends since April month started.
I've said it before but I LOVE doing animation. I hardly feel like I am working as I sit here drawing a transformation scene. It's a privilege really to be doing something you love and that is why I appreciate YOUR HELP in this scenario. I can't work like this without your support! YOU ARE PART OF THIS TEAM TOO!
So thank you again!
A movie maybe sooner than you think
I believe I will be able to take this animation and bundle it with a few more and create perhaps an animated short. It's not the most idea situation but it is something I thought about as we started going with longer animations. I have been stringing the narratives together over the last few animations and at some point, believe it or not - we will have about 30-50 minutes of animation. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!
That might not be as far away as you think and I will keep you posted if I see it close on the horizon.
Some new ways to get the animations
For the animation tier I am looking at putting the animations on my main site as downloads. This would be something like a special page for patrons to go and select animations they want to download. Of course all the animations are here already but this would be another place to get things. With the animations there we might get some other neat possibilities with but I will save that for a later update!
Getting more of what you want in the animations and comics
OK, something that comes up many MANY times each month is people wanting to see more of the transformations, comics, animations, sequences, types and preferences THEY LIKE. Who can blame anyone for that!!?!? I want more of what I like too!
What I am referring to specifically is how to tailor your feedback in a way that is far more likely to get a response you will like. Let's cover a few things right off.
Definitely jump in when I ask for suggestions or feedback or have polls. If you are on a tier or on the main site or somewhere and you see me asking about what you would like to see more of they GET ON IN THERE. That is a guaranteed moment I will be CAREFULLY LOOKING at all the feedback. If you see it, it's worth you jumping in if you can or want to!
If you have an idea or suggestion at any time - CONTACT ME. Don't sit around and wait till someone else brings it up. Mail me DIRECTLY for the best results granitelog(at)hotmail(dot)com
Positive reinforcement v negative reinforcement. Generally speaking you are far far FAR better telling me exactly what you DO want versus explaining what you don't like or don't want. I know this might be a weird thing to say but saying something like "I don't like hair growth" isn't nearly as helpful as saying "I love FMG". Tell me what you want!
Don't wait until you are seeing final animations or at the end of your rope either! Drop me a line anytime and I will be there for you. I can't guarantee I will appease everyone's wishes but the more information I have on what people want to see the more informed my decisions are as I make these animations. Trust me, I have been doing this for a while and I have seen the difference between negative and positive feedback over years. Positive most definitely gets more results.
OK - back to animations and if you have any comments or questions, please drop me a line!
