Hello, everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve put out an update on TWI lmao. YouTube Communities are still being a bitch, so I still gotta use gamejolt as the platform where I’ll post updates!!! (for now)

Without further ado, let’s get on with the updates.

FILMING ENDS IN 2 WEEKS

It feels almost surreal to say that filming is set to officially conclude in 2 weeks. As many of you recall, the initial plan was to begin filming on April, but it got pushed forward to January, which means that filming concluded just 9 months after filming officially began (which, if most of you don’t know, filming usually doesn’t take that long!).

With this I can positively say that I am proud of what I have so far when it comes to what I’ve filmed, with there being approximately 2+ hours of footage.

The film isn’t going to be 2 hours long, that’s obviously noooot gonna happen, but it will inevitably pass the 1 hour mark, so make sure to bring in your snacks for when the film does end up releasing!

TRAILER II ANNOUNCEMENT

Yes, Trailer II is officially in the works. Unlike Trailer I, Trailer II is going to actually show more scenes than just some cut short shots of sceneries and the mascot costumes.

This is the trailer in which you will get your official introduction to most of the human characters (yes, you’ll even get a proper face reveal from the trailer…), tease some scenes, and introduce to the viewer the company behind the distribution of the mascots… Garnace Pictures.

I don’t know exactly when the trailer will release, but I can guarantee you that it’ll be on late September..so, keep yourself to your seats for this one!

NEW CAST MEMBERS ANNOUNCEMENT

Ever since the previous post, our cast has expanded greatly, and I’d like to properly announce their involvement in this project as some of the characters in the film! Some of these names will seem unfamiliar to you, but, once the second trailer releases, I will also release full character descriptions of these guys!

Brandon B. will be playing Polly the Polar Bear!

Ross K. Foad will be playing Gary Gangster!

ERHolland will be playing Sarah Jahn!

Ruben8 will be playing Eliott Richards!

@Sim_Naum will be playing Sergeant Micheal Connors!

And finally, both Sebario and Chip will be playing unnamed spoiler roles.

POST-PRODUCTION…HELP WANTED!

Even with filming completed, there is still a lot that’s left to be made from the film. I have stated on record that the film is mostly live action, but there are various sequences that just can’t be done practically and need CGI Effects. So…I’m going to need help lmao, so here’s my help wanted post!!

3D Character Modelers

• 3D Character Modelers must be able to accurately replicate some of the mascot costumed antagonists in 3D form, both those that have been presented in live action and those that have yet to be modeled in 3D form.

• Along with this, character modelers should be able to carry out similar styles and textures to the already present characters to provide with consistency on visuals.

3D Enviornmental Modelers

• Environmental Modelers should be able to accurately replicate locations and settings that have been sketched out or previously seen in the film.

3D Animators

• Animators must be able to correctly animate movements for both humans and mascot costumes alike, as well as the main perspective of the film…the camcorder.

• TW: Some animators will have to work with animating blood and gore. Kids, stay back.

If any of yall fit this criteria, please dm me on discord!
