#if any pose makers / storytellers who make their own poses have any tips lmk thank you 🫶

something I will continue to dread as I near getting into/back into storytelling in the sims is making poses in game, because I fucking SUCK at imagining scenes, I mean, I *can* imagine them, but I picture them 10x more animated (like moving and shit not still frames), so trying to imagine a scene frame by frame with the dialogue I want is incredibly difficult, something I never really mentioned about my previous storytelling posts is I almost never have it planned out at least fully, like I'll have a *concept* and then just grow around that, and often times I add stuff I didn't even consider adding, like in the Vday post, everything except for the "happy valentines day""I love you / even if it's wrong" and Fading back and forth to the covered pics of Malcolm was pretty much 'improv'ed- aka just made up after taking a bunch of screenshots- So with that being said, I feel like my personal confidence in making these story posts is rlly gonna drop 😭 like I can do poses in blender with a scene with the impression/idea that it'll be done in blender and not moved to TS4, but for some reason the idea of making my poses and then having to move them into TS4 is so dreadful.... cause like- what if it doesn't look good with the scene/furniture in game, I can't really just keep jumping in and out of TS4 and blender to fix it- I know some, if not most, people will say to just import the furniture in so I can pose it better, but going back to the beginning, I don't plan these scenes ahead of time mostly, I usually do that AFTER I get poses and/or the idea of what I want the scene and stuff to look like, I mean- sure, with an idea of what I want the scene to look like should make it easier, but it does not AT ALL, because I usually end up almost completely changing what I intended the room/scene to look and feel like- Going back to Vday, the Alexander prep post rooms looked completely different in my mind (albeit they did have one thing in common; minimalist, rich-ish looking, and lots of black), but I ended up going back on my idea and didn't make it look near what I was thinking of ☠️

Storytelling becomes progressively more and more difficult as time goes on is what I'm realizing LMFAO
