🕑 Added 2025-05-12 16:21:32 +0000 UTC I got caught up playing the new Apex season a few days ago, so my update's a bit late. Now that this video's done, I’m thinking I should make more Genshin videos. Before I start rambling, you should probably watch the video first. . .. ... Okay, here’s the thing. You guys probably know I made two videos last month. Both were 20-second clips, but the truth is, those 20-second videos were just 0.833 seconds of animation looped over and over. Basically, it was the same animation on repeat. Sure, it was quick to make, but I thought it wasn’t fun enough. So, I tweaked my approach a bit. This video is basically an upgraded version of what I’d call a "short film." It’s missing a lot of stuff, like costume changes or a proper story setup, but compared to my earlier so-called short films, it’s got a more complete, non-repetitive flow. So, the question is, "Was this hard to make?" Well, I'll just tell you straight up—the answer is "No". Yeah, the truth is, making a video with non-repetitive animation like this didn’t cost a ton. I’m planning to use this kind of video as a template for what I’ll call “short films” going forward. It’s got richer content, so it doesn’t feel like a boring, looped 20-second clip, but it also doesn’t jack up production costs to the point where I’m stuck forever making it. So, I think this video is a solid solution. It’s a model for a “short film” that has the non-repetitive shots of a longer piece while keeping the easy-to-make perks of a short one. This is a test video. If you guys like this format, I’m thinking future short films will follow this vibe as a template. Just chatting about my personal take on this video (ignoring all the boring production and technical stuff), I’m honestly super happy with the visual elements this time. I went with a style that’s closer to the Genshin worldview, so I think it looks really pleasing on screen. That was actually one of my main goals for this video. In fact, I’m even considering using it as my desktop wallpaper on Wallpaper Engine. Moving forward, I might lean into making more videos like this. I think this kind of video strikes a good balance between keeping up a regular update schedule and maintaining decent quality. It doesn’t take forever to produce, so you’re not left waiting, and the content isn’t just a 20-second loop that gets dull. But hey, that’s just my current thinking.
