Thank You Everyone! (and another update) (Patreon)

Taking a moment to decompress after this hectic week at SizeCon Micro to share some appreciation with our patrons. Your continued support helps us stay confident for our future, and I wanted to open a dialogue to get you filled in on where we're at in regards to a few different productions.

These last few months have been a bit slow on content output for one big reason: a secret project. There's not much I can say here, since it's not entirely Paramouth related, but will immensely benefit everyone in the size scene once it's all complete. We got to share a bit of it at the convention the last few days, and have heard nothing but positive response and open support for our mission. Hope to have more to share with you all soon, but for now just know that  my attention is for the time being split between our normal schedule and managing this larger team.

Now, onto our videos. As of now, we have a few collaborations in the air waiting on the other end to have finished. First to come soon will likely be our collab with Kronguss, "Muted Melody" (working title) which y'all got a glimpse of back in January. If it wasn't obvious, 2D hand drawn animation takes time, but he's filled me in that his work is nearly done, so you'll be seeing the fruits of our sound design and VA work come fruition soon. Additionally, the Wiking is hard at work on his next big project, to which we're on standby to jump in and handle the VA and special sfx sometime soon. Sorry I can't give solid dates, but that's the nature of collaboration.

Now, onto our original videos. We've found ourselves constantly in a rut trying to meet arbitrary deadlines such as holidays, which some of you may have noticed in our Halloween and Thanksgiving offerings. Still, keeping this trend going has been increasingly difficult the more in demand/busy our models have become, as well as the added difficulties of only being able to direct our models remotely across states. Besides that, we have a full list of promising scripts we're excited to get together, as well as a few new faces that'll be joining the Paramouth roster very soon.

On top of our live videos, we've also been looking into exploring the possibilities provided by Blender. Whether for the purpose of rendering images for our own animatics, possible future animations, or incorporating 3D tinies besides the POV into our live videos, Blender introduces a host of new avenues we can incorporate into our regular production! Our first full video showcasing this kind of production will be one of our main focuses this month, so stay tuned for some more of that Aerith model we showed off before ;)

Other than that, we're gonna be reopening our commissions very soon, later this week most likely. We'll be taking on at most 5 customs, and will accept all requests within the to be announced submission deadline into consideration before filling these slots. We'll pick the ideas that not only suit our fancy, but also read as something we can feasibly film with our given resources. So while we encourage you to go off with whatever your heart desires and your imagination can conjure, please keep in mind what we can realistically capture on film ^^;

Thank you for reading all of this if you made it this far. I won't lie and say we're not a bit uncertain about the direction of our productions moving forward, but we're excited about the opportunity to try new things and push ourselves to bring you more of what we love to make! Thank you for your support, your patience, your kind words, and overall your enthusiasm for good content which inspires us to keep going!
