REPORT - 19th January 2024
Hello there. No I'm not dead apparently. It's been many years since I made any kind of update post here, mostly because of laziness but also due to life stuff getting in the way. So for anyone curious (and to help push myself into the mentality of organised scheduling) I'm finally back to posting monthly update reports on my activity.
Firstly lets give a quick recap of what I've been up to. I've dropped out of uni like the failure I am, but in reality I've come to terms with the reality I don't learn properly in the environment of formal education. After leaving uni I've began to study new skills independently. I've learn modelling and rigging in Live2D so I can sell my skills making Vtuber models. In addition, I've also learned modelling and rigging in Blender so I can sell my skill making and rigging 3D models. I also hope to expand into full 3D animations. As is the nature of the 3D environment, I'll need to look to saving money to upgrade my computer to have more processing power to work and render with higher quality models. Finally, I've been learning how to use the Godot and Unity engine (But Unity is on death's door atm so I don't know how useful that will end up being). It's always been a personal dream of mine to create video games, but I understand this is a very expensive and time consuming craft and don't have much expectation to create games anytime soon.
So, that brings us to nowadays. I now want to build my brand and portfolio in the hopes I can make content creation my full time job. I love telling stories, making music, and drawing cute animu girls. So I plan for this year to be a year of content. So here's the big plan for this month (or what's left of it).
POV with the Courier (Youtube only) - This is a series of voice acting YTshorts about Fallout: New Vegas in-jokes. Namely that of seeing the Courier from the POV of certain NPCs where you get to see the Courier at his most psychopathic. Two episodes are already out now and I plan on releasing a new one every week.
POV: You're the Courier's Companion

POV: You named the Courier your successor

The Most Oppressed Group in History - A quick and dirty animation about the most oppressed demographic in history, GAMERS. This is mostly going to be made to practice animating in OpenToonz (Ive been moving over to OpenToonz from Adobe Flash/Animate), but it's always been a joke among my mates and I figure I'd finally get around to immortalising it in an animation.
Hentai Animation Loop - That's right kids, we're maximising the horny drive. Again, this is mostly to practice in OpenToonz but as any internet artist knows; Porn is the key to financial success online. So building a portfolio of porn is on my to-do list this year. I don't know exactly what kind of porn I plan on animating, but I plan on animating it none the less.
So that's on the agenda for January, but over the course of the whole year there are a few projects I have lined up for completion:
The Life of Katie - You might know the first episode of this series as "Birthday". You know, the one about child abuse and domestic violence? Well don't worry, things are only going to get more depressing and abusive as we explore the life of Katie as an ongoing series.
Marked Shark - This is a movie project that has been on hiatus for many years now, but it's a project I've always wanted to finish and has always had positive feedback from people I've shown (what I've completed so far) to. So hopefully I can finally get around to finishing it properly for everyone's entertainment. This is a one-shot action movie about a special agent shark who is tasked with saving the President's daughter from a crew of elite terrorists.
The Frontline of Fun - A series about Model 'F' ChillyCorp Clones and their whimsical adventures of slaughter and trauma on the frontlines of a brutal trench war. Hunger, disease, PTSD, and boredom plague the squad of cute girls as they attempt to survive 3 months of war's horrors. I want this series to take a glimpse into the side of war we're not allowed to talk about. No heroic last stands or big-budget battle scenes, no promises of learning from our mistakes or patriotic justifications. Instead, there's just a slow descent into misery and madness where death is as close as it is pointless.
Well that's all I have to say for this update. If you made it this far, thanks for reading. You can look forward to new content coming out over the course of this year. There will no doubt be other little projects I haven't listed being made, but these are the big ones I definitely want to get done.
Have a good one mate.
