Just a little work in progress post.
So far, I've managed to get about 15 pages of storyboard down for the next video.
To put that into perspective, Loyalty had about 10 pages and it took a month. Frankly, at the time, I had ALL of that work ahead of me, it demoralized the hell out of me, and I procrastinated.
I've knocked out 15 pages in about 6 days. That's a fraction of the time Loyalty and Omniscience each took.
Anyway, the video is coming along nicely. I will not hype it up and will leave its entertaining factor up to you folks once its released. Just know that since this is the main story's conclusion, I am not taking this lightly and making sure each scene depicts what was originally intended.
Adios!

Loyalty had about 10 pages of storyboard.
Omniscience had 11.
Valiance had 20.
And the final one? Over 40 pages of storyboard.
... Time to stock up on 5 hour energies and Rockstars, say goodbye to sleep and most of my social life, and get to animating.
This will be the ultimate test to prove my dedication to the completion of the project, and to see if I've learned anything about Anime Studio 9 in the past 5 months.

Jesus Christ.
I look back on the Overseer Loyalty and Omniscience and I realize those two were easier to animate than it is easy for an alcoholic to make stupid decisions!
Part 3 was so damn time consuming and stressful. It took up days of my life. In between work, school, and other stuff, getting this one finished was a tad more difficult than the last 2. I discovered disorders about myself I didn't even know I had!
But its done now. I'm going to make some small adjustments to a few things on it tomorrow (today), get it nice and polished, then I will post it for you all to have a look see.
I'm skipping the trailer this time. Didn't see a need, TBH. More work.
As my friends described this episode: "Why the hell did you not do this from the beginning?"
Valiance tomorrow, Newgrounds :D

I have a simple question for all of you animators and storytellers on this site:
What is your inspiration? What is it about animating and telling a story, be it funny or serious?
Your 2 cents would be very much appreciated.

So my latest video "Omniscience" did not receive as high a rating as I had hoped... But I don't feel lousy at all.
That just means that I'm going to have to step it up for Part 3! To me, Part 3 was my favorite one to conceive and write. And to me, it will be a ton more interesting than the previous 2 episodes.
There will be more to our hero than a simple walk to nowhere. And he will do far more than walk. He will interact. He will try to survive. Only then might he find what he is looking for. And only then will what he is looking for find him.
Working on it now. Will share more as it develops!

So I took a small break from development on Part 2 of the Overseer because I was playing "The Last of Us" on PS3. Great game, great story. If you have a PS3, BUY IT. It is an extraordinarily unique experience.
I'm finished now, so its back to work!
On the animation front, Part 2 is coming along nicely. Part 1 spent a lot of time having the man sit in the same spot, but in this one much more progress will be made. There will be more events, more movement, and more story to help progress the tale. Hope you like it once its up!

I am very happy with the community allowing my video to pass Judgement. It lets me know that my video did not go unnoticed and that really excites me of things to come. Thank you peeps :D

My name is Joseph, and I am an amateur when it comes to creating content similar to the content I've seen on this site. But I've noticed the warmness and acceptance of the community and wish to become a part of it, and possibly receive tips and advice for my venture into animating.
This will be fun!
