Short time no update on the new video, but progress has been made~!

FINISHED:
- Official title via community vote on discord, 'Furry Brain Drain'~!
- Thumbnail made by the wonderful @StwormyCaptioner on twitter (check them out~!)
- All video content edited up to 11:35 minutes of total run time~!
- Draft edit rendered and soon to be available for Tier 4 sponsors~!
- Some special 'twists' implemented throughout the video~!
- Looping alternative file finished~!

TODO:
- Final scripting revision for more lewdness~!
- Extra effect 'polish' to dial in visual effects / color consistency~!
- Audio pass (with possible VA work)~!
- 'Overstim' edit of main file~!

As is hopefully visible in the above screenshots, this video has been a pretty unique departure from my normal style in a good way, both gain some more skills in things like 3D compositions and more 'unique' ways of putting together image sequence compositions. as I've traditionally done. Over the course of production I'll be using a total combination of After Effects, Premiere Pro, Blender, and FL Studio, combining all the best lessons I've learned from each project to make something that raises the bar for all content I make in the future.

As well, picking up my content schedule from post graduation has also been a slow recovery, finding what works now that I'm in charge of creating my own schedule for content going forward with the pressure of academia behind me has been a challenge! To my surprise you don't realize how fast you're moving through things until you slow down, and finding that momentum again can be surprisingly difficult when you've had a moment to breathe ^^;

that said, I really do appreciate everyone who's stuck around during the slower updates. this project has been all about exploration and refining my style and skillset, and I think it’s been worth it! nearly every part of this video was something I didn’t fully know how to do at the start, but tackled specifically so I'd have a better understanding of it by the end.

3D comps especially have been wildly fun, they open up a whole new way to treat the viewer’s perspective not just as a flat screen to view something on, but as a spatial part of trance itself that can be moved and wrapped around them. i’ve also storyboarded the visuals for the first time this project, not just the script, which feels like a major step for planning more complex hypnosis techniques in future video projects, especially as I start working on longer, multi-part files or modular projects where the viewer can craft their own experience.

Finally, There are some special projects lined up after this that I'm greatly looking forward to. including revisiting some fan favorites (mooo~!) and diving into a few tech-adjacent kinks i’ve been very excited to explore.

Thank you again for the patience, this one's been a bit of a learning arc through a very intensive part of my life, but I can feel it working as an important stepping stone to making some wonderful future videos for everyone to enjoy <3

Will update you all very soon once the visuals are locked in and audio gets underway~

PS: Even while working on this, I've been very active in the discord community~! There's 800+ wonderful people in there now, including some talanted people from various communities, artists, VR hosts, and more~!

Just in the last month, we've hosted game tournaments, VR hangouts, creation competitions, and more~!
