Hi guys, I received a few questions about social medias and what not so I just made this twitter, you could be my very first follower... https://twitter.com/chrstianskyrim

I rarely use social media but I really appreciate it that there are people out here who care about my videos so I'll try to give more frequent updates here, hopefully. Also... the main reason I'm making a twitter is so that I can hopefully have some followers and the voice actresses will actually reply to me lol. I noticed that I usually just get ignored, probably because I was just messaging them with a 0 follower account. I don't care about social media clout and followers but I think it could definitely help me reach out to more people (voice actresses) so I'd really appreciate it if you could follow me there!

Talking about voice actresses... I finished the script for my Tekla part 3 video a few days ago, which would include a new voice actress but I've been having a hard time with her recently, she just comes across as very unprofessional. MacStar (Tekla) will be recording her part very soon though so that's all good. I might have to look for a different VA... again... which would probably delay things a bit leaving me less time to finish the video. I promise I'll try my best to get it done before the end of this month. Obviously the next video should be coming in a few days, no delay on that hopefully! But either way at least 2 videos are coming this month as usual!

So yeah, I do love making fully voiced videos but man it is frustrating when you can't properly work together with someone.

Btw I might also make a discord server where people with similar interests will be able to share/talk about videos/comics and whatever!

I may be a minority in this, but I feel Tekla should be a solo character. I do like the story thread of her making it out on her own, hence why. As for VA's, have you tried linking your Patreon stats to show that you do have money flowing? Let's be real, they care about money and if you can deliver said money. Try and contact another creator that has utilized VA's for their Skyrim based animations called "Ragneg", ask for recommendations that guy.

I just linked my patreon recently, so hopefully that will help. I can see why some people would like Tekla to stay as a solo character, but so far I'm pretty happy with this little story I put together for her with another character, but it's all about experimenting ^^ I'll probably have other solo stories with her in the future but it's hard to keep things interesting with just one character I think. Btw I was literally just looking at Ragneg's twitter to see which VAs he has worked with, I did message 1 or 2 of them although I think they voiced videos which included monsters. A lot of VAs will do monsters but not animals. I'll keep looking though!

I hope the linked Patreon shows your subs at least. I've gleaned other creators on the platform but for some reason I can't see their sub-count or how much they are making per month since Patreon updated their site but it really helps since VA's need consistent and reliable revenue stream, and a client that does get revenue are more likely to not stiff them; and since you plan on doing at least two productions per month, it's a pretty good deal. Never heard of any VA's turning down work because of the content, it wouldn't make sense since ironically a lot of the animations that get voiced tend to be Non-con or adjacent to it. Be weary of the more known VA's though since they can charge upwards of $2k.

I was able to get a reply from some of them now actually! I think adding my patreon there definitely helped :) Yeah I always talk through prices and everything before they start recording for me.

Part 3 Tekla, Very nice bro !

Ragneg also has a hard time with VA's btw, i think that's just the nature of the business lol. Thanks for the updates though, looking forward to the trolls one coming up!

I do like the idea of not only pairing Tekla up with another character, but doing it with other characters as well. Not all the time, but doing occasional videos where your characters interact with each other can make the world feel more alive. Kind of like when DC or Marvel have superheroes team up, but with more sex. I also hope that the VA hunt starts going more smoothly now. To be honest I think it would be fine if you just found a small group of VA's that you work well with and just reuse them for your videos, maybe 5-6. They would probably appreciate the consistent work, and I don't think that any of us would mind, as long as they sound good.

Also to add, if its any consolation. You surprisingly have a thread on F95, a piracy site. I know it sounds bad. But you're on the radar for people that think your productions are worth trying to access but not worth or to poor to be a patron of. Not gonna lie, you can't stop piracy once people come to know of you. You're getting up there in the world, there ain't much Skyrim animators out there with their own thread, and if they do, it's not as active. Despite all that, keep up the good work and don't be discouraged by that thought.

chrstian

Yeah some people pointed that out to me, there is really noting I can do about that. For now I really don't mind it because there is already so many people supporting me here. What I don't like is when people re-upload my videos but cut the end of the video that has all the credits and link to my patreon, that's a scummy thing to do. I think on f95 I was at least credited properly, but I haven't checked the videos.

I've noticed what some creators do is they put a monthly password on the archive where they post their videos. It's a small inconvenience but usually the password is stickied at the top so it's not hard to find. That doesn't stop someone from joining, downloading all the videos and then quitting but if the pirate wants more of the newer videos they'd have to keep subbing. In the end it may not be worth it, and as someone said more exposure might end up being a good thing overall, but I just wanted to point out there are ways to combat it should you decide it's worth it.

FalteringRelic

It's a shitty honour to have a curated thread on F95. Things that are worth stealing have value; that means your work really stands out. Not even Ragneg or LustfulLuna have their own thread I believe.

Can't wait I'm really excited

Hey man, not rushing you or anything just asking. Would the next video be out before this weekend ?

chrstian

Should be Sunday night, but there is a good chance I can only finish on Monday, I'm trying to work on it for a good few hours everyday but today/tomorrow I think I can spend more time on it!

wanna know if possible seeing vampire lord video lmao

chrstian

It's definitely possible but I've noticed that vampire lord animations are lacking in skyrim, not a lot of people focus on them so it'd be hard to make the video interesting. So a full vampire lord focused video isn't very likely

Can't wait for later today video release

chrstian

Not sure if I'll have enough time tonight to render it, it's basically finished but I must get up early because of some real life stuff. If I can do it then I'll definitely upload/make a post in a few hours before I sleep but if not I'll just post it on Monday, either way I apologize for the little delay. I always try my best to post the first video before the 15th of each month.

vasior

vampire lord plus gargoyle would probably give you enough for a video, and they both tend to be grouped together in Skyrim as well.
