STORY PROCESS CHALLENGE

STORY PROCESS CHALLENGE

by @herpixels

I was tagged by @ladykendalsims​​, @dynastiasimss​ @lunanelfeah​. Thank you so much dear!💖

The challenge: show a certain part of your story process based on you being tagged by other creators!!!

1. Your writing process - show us a part of your script or explain how you write your scenes. Do you write in screenplay format or novel format? Etc, etc.

Whenever I come up with a line or scene description, I write it down here and there. And draw something like a Storyboard to summarize the flow of the story. These are very clutter.😅

2. Scene building - show us you in the middle of scene building through pictures, gifs, or a video. Explain what is the best thing about scene building and what is the worst!

It's even more clutter. If you see this, dreams may break, so from somewhere around here...

3. CC/Pose Making - do you make your own cc/poses for your scene?

I borrow all the CCs I need to create a my story from very talented creators! For now, it's faster to look for it than to make it.🙏

4. Getting in the zone - What do you do to get in the zone to work on a scene? Examples include: show us your playlist you use when working on a scene, what’s your go-to scene snack/drink, etc.

Always suddenly, I jump over the border to the zone. I still don't know what the conditions are. The zone seem to occur willy-nilly?

5. Screenshot folder - give us a look into your screenshot folder to show us just how much goes into ONE scene for your story. 

When I unexpectedly take a picture I like, I change the story accordingly. What's more, I have a personality that I can't throw away, so I'm just collecting pics.

6. Captions - are you a caption on the picture kind of storyteller or captions in text box type of storyteller? Why? Do you do both?

My caption is usually text box type. Because it's easy to translate when I (or you?) reading it, and it's easy to fix it later!

7. Editing!!!!! - explain and show us your process editing a scene through a video, gif, or picture. A Before and after will suffice if you aren’t in the middle of editing a scene as you answer this.

I posted how to create my GIF before. If you are interested, you can find it here.😊 I use GIMP and Windows 10 photo editing features for image editing. Or, I use PIXLR X from time to time. 

8. Throwback - show us an ANCIENT story scene you done in the past and explain how you would do the scene differently today!

ahh, I feel like re-editing the image of the story of #ノットとシッポ. ...It feels like my color hasn't been decided.

Thank you for reading this to the end! I've already read this challenge posts from many storytellers and have seen them tagged by someone. That was very interesting for me.🤩 So I tag all storytellers who haven't done this yet!

(As a storyteller, I realized again how lazy and careless I am! 🙈)

“On the orbit” 💫 6/? A memorandum about artificial planets and Volucite

Dear Aey

Hello, How is everything?(I'm sure you're fine.) Thank you for your email. I was surprised to know that you were still riding that antique!

The link between Volucite and the "Seeds" of artificial planets is unclear. There may be some relevance because both have the same floating qualities. The history of artificial planets is old, and I think that the floating technology powered by Volucite is newer than that of artificial planets. This is just an example, there may have been a branch of technology between a guild of artificial planet growers who value resonance and a guild that treats Volucite as a mere power resource. My guess is that they couldn't agree with each other's ideas and were relentlessly working on the principles of each guild. Both of them are secretive, so I'm sorry I don't know much about the science and technology related to Volucite. But both of these technologies now seem to be declining and becoming a urban legend. I also researched information about Volucite in several places in Glimmerbrook. Have you ever readed "LAPUTA"? According to the book, The Laputans, who had the only technology in the world to mine and crystallize Volucites from bedrock, boasted advanced science and technology using the huge crystals of Volucites, and therefore they. Therefore, the empire has fallen due to its dependence on Volucite and its danger. (I suspect this story is a little exaggerated by them.) Volsite is a powerful rarest ore, but mining is extremely dangerous. There will be some bad guys who aim for that power. Fortunately, it doesn't seem like you're rumored at the bar yet. (But my curious acquaintance has already get wind of it!) Anyway, I know you're a skilled ore hunter, but be careful with how you handle Volucite.

Best wishes, Peter.

🪐Beginning / Previous / Next 💫

Special Thanks: Aey Emm by @honeyteasims!💖 Thank you so much for inviting me to the world of storytelling again. So..., You don't regret that I really posted this long letter, right?😂 / And, Thank you to all amazing CC creators!

⛏The original “LAPUTA” is an animated movie by Studio Ghibli, and Volsite is the ore that appears in that story. Also called 飛行石 or Levitation Stone. Please forgive me to use it in my delusions.📚

Peter: When you seems like going nowhere, remember ”He that would know what shall be, must consider what has been.” ... I'm looking forward to hearing from her the next development.

May fair winds be with you.

AEY: Oh! A message from Peter! OooPpFFF this sounds really serious and dangerous…. I guess I should read the book first? Who wants this cabin to go BOOM?! Not me! Let’s thank Peter first….

“Hey Peter! 

You are so right. this is an antique and in much need of, not just repair, but mega improvement. I really knew nothing about such dangers you mentioned. I will be more watchful. 

The scanner is showing a very dense and powerful ore activity but I can’t say which ore. I need to explore and dig. Of course, now that you have warned me, I will first go and find some more knowledge on this topic around Glimmerbrook.

I might need to talk to you more on the subject of resonance. Something very unusual happened. About that next time.

May the winds be fair to you always

A.M.

Twin Treemans of "Forked tree"

How did Aey spend his time at that time?

Me: “mumbo-jumbo”! 🤣 I memorized this word firmly in my head. I love her more and more!

A.M.: What can I do for ya, mate?

LOCAL: I came to welcome you and give you a fair warning of what is coming to you and offer my magical services…. they might be helpful around here.

A.M.: I don’t know what kind of mumbo-jumbo you do around here, but I have my own agenda and my own ways, and I can’t be tricked into things so easily. Anyways, thanks for your “magnanimous” offer.

LOCAL.: I can see you only appear ordinary, but the truth is… you are….. hidden.

Hi! Thank you for your message! Well, I haven't written anything other stories than posting a story to Simblr. Every time I create a story, writing a fantasy story in English was sometimes painful for me... So, I'm really happy to receive such a compliment from you, and at the same time, I can't hide my confusion!🙈💦

Let me say it many times, My deepest thanks for sympathise with my strange fantasy world! The comments I have received from you and other readers are all treasure for me.💖
