The East Patch

Production Update! 9.9.20

Added 2020-09-09 20:11:37 +0000 UTC

Hello inspiring patrons!

The long weekend proved more than motivational, and has set us back on course with more fervor than ever. With new plans and schemes afoot, we're proud to get to the updates!

- Episode 1: We're 20% through the show's art and animation; that's 1/5 there! And we anticipate work speeding up with a refined system under wing. Halloween is looking less hopeful and more sure by the week, though we're still reluctant to make any formal announcement until we have all the pieces together. Speaking of, we're told the episode's music score could be done by next update! You'll know when we do, and though we have a solid back up in the works, we're fairly confident in what to expect. If that and the audio come together with our production on pace, we'll have a Halloween premiere in the works!!

- Lead Up: If Halloween doesn't happen, we'll still have an exciting pilot promo prepared for it with a Thanksgiving premiere, but that aside, October will still be fun. We're planning our own West Patch Inktober with some lore and other secrets to tide you over till the pilot happens, and we're excited to share. Look forward to more Patron only commentary and retro art on the socials, as well!

- Misc: We had a lot of fun over this last weekend. With a full minute of the pilot polished up, our confidence is high, and our workflow has never been better. Our team has been amazing to work with, and we couldn't be more pleased with you, sweet patrons, for your patience and fun comments. This is the biggest project we've ever undertaken, but thanks to you it's also felt like the most doable. You'll see all ten episodes, and know you were here helping us from the start - and for that we couldn't be more thankful.

Here's to an exciting spook season! Until next time, dear friends.
