Reduce 2: Pass of Time - Part II (Scene 12)

Posted by Mejson - July 9th, 2023

Welcome everyone!


First thing:

It's surprising how hard was to animating for the last 3 weeks. This is due to the fact that I am not a fan of heat and high temperatures. Summer is not my thing... I don't enjoy it in any of the ways available to me (I can do the same thing in winter). And it is only the cause of fatigue and lack of desire and energy. Mainly because I wasn't able to finish this scene early, I was too tired after work, or rather exhausted by the damn weather this summer... Okay, enough of the ominous staff :P How are you doing this summer? Do you have similar feelings? Is summer heaven on earth for you? I guess some people just live their lives enjoying every carefree moment without creating anything and not spending time in front of the computer. It seems cool, but looking back, when I didn't do animation for two years - I got the impression that it was a waste of time because in the end I couldn't keep a certain person with me... well, whatever. What happened happened...


Main thing:

Back to the highlight of the show... Here's the finished Scene 12! As you (probably) noticed, it bears the title - Pass of Time, as the original subtitle of the whole add-on. It is a specific scene (like no other) that is not short. It lasts 137 seconds, so it's pretty cool. The passing of time and the music playing... that's all that's needed. My dear team, what do you think about this solution? Intrigued you? Curious? I'm curious about your opinions. From the next good news, I will say that this is the last scene, so get ready for another Poster! It's possible that a Promotional Poster will appear today! So grab your paws and rakes and shout to announce the good news to everyone! Let everyone know that Reduce 2: Pass of Time - Part II premieres this Tuesday! Go on my comrades! To arms! Uhh... I mean to advertise XD


Extra thing:

From the next interesting things, this is quite unique information. On the occasion of the tenth anniversary, we have a surprise for you all! I'll quote my brother because he already described it nicely on Discord :P


I have talked with my big bro and he has very (very) interesting idea. He wants to publish full reduce movie (R1, R2, R2: PoT) without any additional scene. Just action. It will be done as 10th anniversary. Additionally he proposed to add some your comments as "authors and fans notes". I like this idea very much but it needs to be done properly. I propose to meet at discord some day and watch it together and just try have fun and some thoughts. Because of time zones it won’t be easy so I start here discussion. If you want to participate can you write as first phase the range of hours that are possible for you to join. Let’s stick with utc time zone. Let’s assume at this moment weekend days (Sunday or Saturday) but I am not even sure if you have the same free days as we Europeans. I live in Poland so it’s very close to utc time zone so I am available 13.00 - 24.00. Of course English will be language used and drinking alcohol is allowed :p

What do you think about it, @Cyberdevil@AzureDragoonGX@ChordC@MariogD@SayMeBott@Colizza@XavierDalton@MATRVG@uncookboi@adr3-n? I remind you comrades (Crew) that you have access to the project view and you can familiarize yourself with the new scene!

I like the idea, we have shown process of butterfly's taming in dynamic way. Great job!

Thanks! Glad you like it!

Thanks for the comment bro!

Kudos for the last scene - hard work pays off! This one (last scene) is more dynamic than previous ones, which makes me even hungrier at the end of PoT:PII :)

Autumn rocks!

Thank you for the applause! what? More dynamic? You must have been watching some other animation XD

Yes! Autumn is great!

Thanks for comment!

The idea of recapping the passing of time experienced by the characters using a music video seems like an interesting idea, looking forward to it.

Also, summer is bad for your health I guess

Thank you! You cant wait? You can watch it anytime.

listen to him! He knows what he's saying!

Great work, Mejson! Finally we've got nothing to worry about completing any Reduce 2 :P Now on to the Reduce 3!!!

Thanks for comment!

It's so hot that people was barely watch it! XD Hehehe

Yeaaaaa... to Reduce 3 XD It won't be that easy :P I've reached another level of abstraction XD Hehe, here people are adding 1.5 minute animations :) And I'm thinking about 200 minutes... of the movie XD

Regards,
Mejson

I think I have quite a bit to catch up on here! Shall advertise more later this month I hope, returned this week but still a little busy.

Our summers are probably a little cooler here, would've been nice if some of your heatwave blew over here instead. XD IMO all time spent bettering yourself is time spent well though, all the fresh air and sunshine you can get, in the long run it'll help you sit by the keyboard longer; still stay healthy. :)

Hope your autumn's turning out better though! Ideal temperatures now!

A lot of catching up to do? Will you advertise Reduce? Where have you been? You've been gone for a long time.

Probably so. Unfortunately, lately I haven't been able to sit at the computer... I'm lonely and I have no inspiration to sit at the computer. I would like to say that I am healthy, but unfortunately not necessarily sane.

Yes, it's a pity that it's so hard to meet the right person...

With Reduce yes, and everything else here, NG and the digital realm. :) Well I hope so! It's become a bit of a tradition to at least have a verse related to Reduce each year, so maybe this time too... I've been at the family farm mainly, though back and fourth a lot, actually back there now for a few days, but it's currently snowing outside so a bit more time to sit in and catch up with things, brought my laptop for some work at a distance...

Oh man. :/ I'm sorry to hear that. Do you get any D-vitamin supplements? Maybe very irrelevant here, but personally I had some occasionally pretty bad winter depressions before I started taking that regularly, seems like a vitamin that affects your mood too, if you have a shortage, maybe worth a mention... hope you feel better though. I've been keeping myself busy but if I had time for more solace and stillness I think... I might feel similarly. Life would be better with a partner; someone who lends you purpose, and appreciation; who makes you better.

Mmm...

Cool, I can't wait to hear some song with 'Reduce' verses :)

On the family farm? Cool :) You know, you catching up.

Well, that's how it goes... I'm currently struggling to meet someone interesting. Hmm, it's good that you reminded me... I need to take more pills XD Well, I feel nostalgic - like I'm looking for a part of myself... As always, you're right.

Well, I hope to resume making 'Reduce' soon, somehow I need more happiness in myself to have the will and enthusiasm.

Mmm if I don't get one in before the month's over I'll make something exclusive. ;) Caught a cold last week, jumbled up my plans a little, suddenly just a few days left...

Yeah I'll get there. :)

Mmm, at least you're trying. :) Myself I'm probably more so avoiding the issue; distracting myself from the inevitable. But good relations really are important... hehe vitamins may not be a miracle cure but they definitely do help! :D Winter's closing in here now, sunlight's rare, upping doses...

I do hope you get there. :) Somehow. Whether it's the supplements or the social life or some higher purpose that gets you there, whatever you need to find that passion again.

What's exclusive? Interesting...
Have you had a cold? I think I have a cold today :P

So where do you want to go? Because I don't remember anymore :)

Yeah, maybe I'm trying, but I can't say that it works XD Yes, good relationships are important :) Yeah, vitamins, but when it's too late they won't help you... hehehe.

Winter and cold, which only allows you to catch a cold :P LOL

I don't know if I'll get somewhere :P I hope I'll get somewhere :P Well, the most important thing is to have inspiration, and inspiration is, well... it's a mean bitch :P Hehehe... you know.

I mean just a Reduce verse outside of October, I always want to keep going even after Inktober's over so... here's to something a bit later on instead. :) The month really flew by. And this month...

Aw man, hope it just is a common cold at least. May you recoup in record time!

Just to a state of being caught up fully here. XD

Too true. And everyone seems to be sick now, so even if you do have a relatively healthy immune system the probability of catching something's dramatically higher... all you need is to sleep badly one night and there you go...

May you get a good dose of inspiration soon too then! :) Personally I feel like when you're sick the pressure's off a bit, and suddenly inspiration comes easier... maybe now?

Good luck anyhow - slowly but surely hopefully everything keeps getting better; all things fall into place in this grand big puzzle that life is! We just need to wither this winter now...

Yeah? Will you create another masterpiece? For Reduce Saga? Can't wait! :)

Yeah, I hope so, but I'm not convinced that I only have colds :P I like your optimism, keep it up! :P

Aah, absorb it! :P

Hmm, you're right, but I feel like it will take me a while XD

I don't need inspiration... the script is ready. I need more processing capacity - it's a craft job now.

Thanks! Well, you're right :P Wait out the winter...

Ahh I don't know about masterpiece. XD Don't expect too much now! But something.

May you get the processing capacity you require then, and may whatever the cold may be if it is not a cold not be anything too serious at least! :)

All the best man!

I understand, but which song? So what's the latest? It's a great masterpiece :)

Well, it looks like it's the flu... I don't get sick very often, but when I do, it's kind of bothering me.

Thanks!

Ahh I'll get back to you on this. XD Was just planning to record something simple, time's flying though at the moment, I'll send you a message when I do have something.

Dang man... get well anyhow. :/ Drink plenty of water! Get plenty of rest! And hope you don't get all the worst symptoms with it!
