Final Project Update # 1

By Anonymous -
Last week I had the pleasure of sitting down with Tom Richner, and he's proved to be an invaluable resource of information pertaining to the craft of world building and show bibles. This week he's bringing in reams of pitch bibles from tons of successful shows for me to look through. Thanks Tom! You're great. I don't care what they say.


The Loremongers is chugging along at a nice pace. I've started preliminary sketching for characters, and have gotten a surprising amount of chapter one's rough draft done. Like, twenty pages or so. That puts me ahead of schedule! Who's excited? This guy.

You can't see it, but I'm pointing at myself. It's me.

I'm the one who's excited.



Starting Wednesday, and every other day thereafter, I'm going to post about either a character or unique aspect of the world I'm building and provide a few interesting tidbits to go along with it. These quick updates will keep me from going insane, and also allow a constant stream of updates and keep me motivated in the short-term process.

So I'll see you on Wednesday.

Coming up with a viable project to present today was tough.   I really wanted to find a way to incorporate the strengths of multiple different artistic paths in order to create a strong desire for a team to work together beyond the simple parameters of the assignment. I wanted everyone involved to be able to proudly append this project to their portfolios. I’m really excited with what I’ve come up with. My project will include elements of Photography, Film (live action), and Animation. The way in which these things will be combined, as a basic gist, is as follows: A live action actor would be filmed and rotoscoped via animation into fantastical stop-motion photographed backgrounds! The story as it exists so far is very rough, and is as follows: A young lady, late for an appointment, takes what she believes to be a shortcut into a labyrinth of back alleys, with corridors and exits leading to peculiar places and whimsical circumstances. One, for example, might lead her to an exit

The gang's all here. This is a group shot of the most current versions of my menagerie and a great way to show a pegged-down version of all of the gods and their designs. From here, it's all just tweaking and fine tuning of the concepts as shown above. From left to right we have: Tritet, god of smoke tendrils and the overseer of lost explorers. Durollu, god of confinement. Sodius, the god of salt. The Wanderer, a being as old as the world itself. Tundara, daughter of the deceased Mountain King and goddess of the snowy peak. And finally C'lorodoro, goddess of color, scrutiny, and detail. I'm really jazzed to have all my concepts pegged. I can't wait to render these characters in full color. See you next week!
