✦Was going to finish and post this short today but the day had other plans. Hoping to post it tomorrow. Also I am realizing I should make a "How I do lighting and shading" tutorial video because I tend to forget how I light and shade.

✦ Updates: honestly not many this week. I have been pretty busy unfortunately. I have done some mental brainstorming though for both AI Diaries and The Loser though.

✦ Updates!!!

✦ The Loser
✦ Feeling like I am pretty close to finalizing the ending. It's open ended I feel. I don't know if I'll add to it but it feels good to have an ending as I was always really lost on how to end "The Loser". As for art, I'm working on an environment piece. It's pretty hard though as my perspective skills need a lot of work.

✦ AI Diaries
✦ Had a random burst of motivation and wrote a bit this weekend. We're on chapter 4 of the novel. Since I like film as a medium, I'm mostly writing in dialogue and will add descriptions in later.

✦ Hello guys, here are this weeks updates:

✦ The Loser
✦ Working on deciding the story's ending. This will help me outline the rest of the story better. I have also realized that I seem to prefer film to tell stories over books. So, along side writing the The Loser, I will also try filming an Lps series since Lps series are one of the cheapest ways to produce a web series. I won't be posting the series anywhere for now, it mostly just to help me complete the story before animating it.

✦ AI Diaries
✦ Going to start some concept art. I also realize I should try to make a web series for it too.

✦ Hello fishies! Thank you all for 1,000 subscribers. I’m pretty surprised this milestone was reached. I’ll probably do something I just don’t know when. Anyways, updates:

✦ The Loser
✦ Did more general story writing. I now have a super, super, super rough outline of most of the story completed. I didn’t know how to end The Loser before but the outline has given me an ending idea, which is good because it helps my writing feel more organized. I’m also still trying to pin down how “plotted” I want the story to be. I think it will be mostly a drama that focuses on character dynamics but I want some “hero’s journey” plot devices in there. At this point, it seems like I need to go back to writing the story vs outlining to figure out the genre, characters and plot details.

✦ AI Diaries
✦ Still mostly neglecting it but I have realized I should try to add more personal flare to the story. I think it’s been hard to write because it's mainly fictional and a lot of it is me writing about things I don’t have experience with.

✦ Hello fishies [Yes, I have a name for you all now], I’m back with more updates. Also thank you all for the support on my latest video!

✦ Life Update
✦ My life is going to be pretty busy for the next few months so there won’t be a new video for a month at minimum and five months at maximum. I will still work on doing updates like this though. Also random but I watched the playthroughs for Mouse: P.I. for Hire and the animation looks soo good.

✦ The Loser
✦ I hit a writing road block but thankfully overcame it. Basically one of the main issues I get with The Loser is knowing how to progress the plot. What helped was/is me watching series I think are similar to what I want The Loser to be or are a similar genre (ex. Coming of age, high school and college drama, fantastical elements, horror elements, etc). This has been pretty helpful in giving me new and good ideas and also seeing what The Loser definitely is not [I want to subvert some tropes]. So overall I’ve been doing more general story development instead of chapter writing lately.
✦ I also randomly got a new tune for some original music I want to make for The Loser so that was nice.

✦ AI Diaries
✦ Been neglecting it a bit. Did do a rough storyboard and brainstorming for some animations I want to do.

✦ Hey everyone [I really need to come up with a pet name for my fans]! Hope you guys are having a good week. Unfortunately my personal life has been a tad hectic but I hope to get back to working on my projects consistently soon. Here are this week's story updates:

✦ The Loser:
✦ Writing: About to get into the thick of it in terms of writing. Feeling pretty overwhelmed as I am realizing there are SO many plots I want to explore [to name a few: Bee and her family's relationships [Mom, Dad, brother, etc] , Bee and her friendships, Bee and her faith, etc]. I guess its a better problem than not having any ideas though.
✦ Art/Animations: Going to post a video version of my "Sienna" animatic very soon with some editing enchancements as I realized its the prefect Mother's Day animatic.

✦ AI Diaries:
✦ Writing: Has been a lot more simple than The Loser so I am worried it might be shallow. Its okay though as I plan to have some beta readers read it over once I'm done.
✦ Art/Animations: Got many ideas just haven't started any. I also recently got to look at the character designs I did for AI Diaries. Not sure how I feel about them now...

AI Diaries Update:
Working on writing chapter two. Questioning chapter lengths but I'm having fun. Its weird how ideas come to me when I just write vs overthink and outline.

The Loser Update:
Trying to design Bee's brother and Dad. The Dad is coming out fine but the brother, I'm struggling lol.

why I am about to start coloring "The One Who's Running the Show" animatic and I've actually forgotten how I shade?

The Loser Updates:
- Currently working on writing a rough draft of chapter 1. The end game is to make "The Loser" an animated series but I'm hoping a novel could help get my name out there. I actually plan for it to be a book series, ideally a trilogy but we'll see. I'm going to start giving weekly or daily updates about the completion of the novel like posting "chapter 1 completed". Hopefully this keeps me responsible. As I already said, I am also planning to put out a formal intro video for The Loser at some point. This still working "the one who's running the show" line art. Hope you all are having good weeks.

someone call 911 because we just passed 911 subscribers! Jokes aside, thank you all for the support. I did not at all expect for the "not allowed" short to do well or for this channel to reach this milestone so suddenly. Now for some content updates about The Loser and AI Diaries:

✦ The Loser Updates:
✦ General Updates: Since I am still a one person show and not a full time artist or content creator, I will continue to post shorts about lore hints and introducing characters.
✦ I'm currently working on completing the "one who's running the show" wip I posted. As usual I will post the lineart before the finished colored version. I hope to complete it by the 21st.

✦ Future Content [release unknown]:
✦ The Loser Intro Video: Since many of my new subs are here for The Loser I am considering making an intro video. This will go into more detail about the series plot, characters, character designs, release plan and ways to support.
✦ Bee's Bed Rot Playlist: will be a video of Bee jamming to songs in her room with the visuals hinting at lore.
✦ Voice Claim Video
✦ The Loser Rough Songs: I have been working on original music for The Loser and would like to put out a video showing demos for the songs. Likely won't release until 2027 because I need learn music production.
__________________________________________________________

✦ AI Diaries Updates:
✦ General Updates: focusing on writing the series. I've written some content and have been getting feedback which as been helpful. By the end of this summer, I plan for the entire rough draft to be complete.
✦ Will try to start posting shorts revealing lore but won't be happening anytime soon.
✦ Voice Claim Video

✦ Have a few longer animations planned for AI Diaries [release unknown]
✦ Piercing on my hand - North West MV
