Q: Why did you decide to stop working on i'm a princess at one point and start here comes the sun?
A: i did a heck of a lot in between. i stopped working on i'm a princess because the world of 3D was so vast and overwhelming and i was so in love with it, i needed to get as deep as i could into it, which also requires some significant renovations, and i also got really into those too. Then finally when i had hit rock bottom and needed to pretty much 'make a video or die', i think i decided i wanted to start fresh, with something a little more straightforward. although in retrospect, 'princess' would have been pretty good there. but the other technical reason is because the video was already like 20% made in the old system, and i was certainly in no mood to go back to the old system, and yet i still desperately wanted to use the footage, because it was very sentimental to me, because it literally shows the moment where i fell in love with 3D. So i knew it was going to be somewhat of an odd case, a frankenstein project, that would have to be pieced together cleverly to combine old and new. a bit too complicated of an endeavor for me to attempt in the first go. in addition it obviously required character animation, for continuity purposes, which actually i was quite ready for because i developed most of that in early 2020. but i still wasn't ready for it yet. i tried a cameo in the 'sun' song to prepare
