Yk what

fuck it

PROJECT IDEA RANTTTT

Ok so the first idea which ive admittedly had for awhile

Is making videos based off of the Gregaverse Creators Shinanigians series 

Little edit like things where the comic is the same nothings changed except for instead of a comic its a little video

However i have 21 left to do and there are 25 in total so doing them all will take a bit of work but i think i can manage(somewhat) 

They could be dubbed or i could just add music and sound effects to the video w/ the regular text bubbles showing up w/ no dub 

I like the dubbed idea better but then again for any of this to work i need every creator includes consent so thats why i didnt wanna talk abt this one

I cant promise everyone can consent and this is a pretty cool idea but im not gonna post my friends w/o their consent thats just rude imo

__

Second idea

Youtube channel

Yk like those youtube animation channels that post storytimes and rants and some other stuff?? yeah i wanna do that

Origionally i wanted to be a streamer and my friend saying that id be a funny one when i mentioned it in a call made me want to be one more

However my schedule is absolutely everywhere so i wouldnt be able to do steady streams like id like to

So a youtube channel works better!!

I can premake videos and have them ready to post on a schedule like id like it to be 

__

Third idea

DT COMIC SERIES

Itd be like the books up to a T so basically you can read the comic or the book and get practically the same story

Except the book will have more extra details and the comic would be more.. graphic

Itd be fun to do 

A great comic idea

Plus i already have atleast 20 pages worth of story done and posted maybe more

I like it but itd prolly be started way after i catch up w/ my current projects

__

Forth idea

A Gregaverse creators series except its based off of persona rps 

This one is a good one but i think itd take a bit of me warming up to before i can manage it

Its a great idea 

I love it

However i have alot of anxiety w/ writing a character right so writing another persons persona?? anxiety through the goddamn roof

But the rp part makes it simpler due to the fact that well they play their own character and all id have to do is write it into a story fill in a few blanks and boom!! story

Again my friends consent but itd take awhile to start anyways due to the fact im drowning in WIPs so i wont have to ask for awhile

__

Fifth idea  

Songs

I can write i can sing so songs would be a great outlet for me

In theory

Ive tried this before and became very dysphoric over my voice in the recordings as it sounded wrong to me

Not to mention my phones microphone is shit so id have to wait a long time until i can

__

Sixth idea

Comissions!!

I want to do comissions for a multitude of reasons 

I need the money for my savings  I want to start making money independently Itd cure boredom Plus itd get ppl some costum content!!

I already have ideas for prices and what i would comission

For example my favorite ones of these ideas is picture oneshots

I draw you a picture based off of who and what you want the story about then write abt a 3-4k word oneshot abt the drawing

The price idea for that one was 15-25USD but i think itd be worth it

The comissions would mainly be writing though as im still working on my art skills 

I dont think theyre good enough for professional comissions so id prolly have the main focus on writing and stories

However i did have the idea of including added pictures

Such as you commissioned a base story of 5 chapters and decide “yk i rlly want an art peice abt this spesific part” 

You could ask and pay for it!!

It be maybe 10-15USD per picture bc i plan on making this pictures extremely detailed

Thats all the ideas for now so-

I might reblog w/ more ideas but feedback is always welcome

Mid-century, Japan had started westernization and is off on a good start with the British. Conversations in both English and Japanese have become a common thing throughout the streets, and people are both wearing suits and the traditional kimono still. One city in particular has become the center of trading and is a popular city among the foreginer businessmen. Architecture of the west has blended subtly, through the streets, some of the houses, but traditional culture still oozes throughout the streets. But what comes with a thriving city is, and will always be, a thriving underground organization. Despite its security and order, what lies beneath isn't something that can be stopped just by justice alone. As long as money is concerned, the government will always turn a blind eye. No matter how prosper a city seems, the underground life will always be there, or perhaps, it is exactly because of that, that a city flourishes.

Taken away at a young age due to his parent's inability to pay the piling debt to the yakuza, he was forced to live a hell-ish life. After years of torment, he was able to gather enough dirty secrets to negotiate his freedom, creating a neutral zone of his own, separate from the governement, mafia, and yakuza, operating on its own, in the form of a detective agency. Tetsurou abandons his young self and becomes known as the Black Cat. Ordinary people knows him as a sleazy detective accepting requests from as simple as a lost pet, to stalking requests, to murder cases. The red light district knows him as the elusive young man, pale skin and lean stature with just enough muscles, body bearing scars of its own, unashamed to those that shared a night of passion, walking through the streets with feline-like grace, easy and confident smiles, seeking a bed warmer for the night, gender never a problem. Police seeks him for cases that seems to have reached dead ends, serial killers, bizzare murders, clashes in any underground organization. Both the yakuza and mafia is cautious of him but will still look to him for any information that their group has yet to catch wind of.

He was soon reunited with his childhood friend, head of the now Kodzuken Corporation, a leading corporation in technology, built within the shoulders of one young man.

:( honestly i did not mean to incorporate mafia / yakuza here to complicate things. I just want to kinda build and note down a few tidbits of AU i wanted. Just kinda a mix of european/japanese culture k, that's why their friendship i forcely include. :)

I just kinda wanna draw kuroo in this kimono, being this lazy ass, messy looking detective, kinda has not enough moral on public decency :p and is know to play around. Kinda solving things like serial killer and stuffs instead of yakuza and mafia because honestly i lack research, and just kinda wanna imagine kenma in a dark brown suit with light brown stripes and wearing a top hat, mmmmmmm. Yum. They'd make a picture together. I imagine Bokuto and Akaashi being in the police, just kinda why won't you contribute to the country officially with his deducting ability by being in the police and kuroo simply like na, i want my freedom fam, and i can work on my own pace like this and i still wanna fool around seeking pleasures :p

I just kinda like the image of him holding the long pipe, in which I searched in google as "xxxholic yuuko's pipe" and finding out it's called the kusuri pipe, kinda with his long fingers, elegantly. Mmmm. And his loose kimono that would allow people to peek at his /cough/bare chest/cough/ and the black kimono giving contrast on his skin, and the striking. Red. Hakama, in Nekoma's color. I'm crying won't someone draw me such portrait of Kuroo. I really need to save up and somehow get a paypal account for comission huh. Shit.

I think that's a Germany thing, over here I'd argue that most cosplay photographers either do it only as a hobby or only shoot their best buddies or they are sought out and paid through some crazy connecting or some shit. Honestly I've always been on the shy side of being photographed, so it isn't something I go out and do so often, though photographers have come up to me and asked to shoot me instead. I think it all depends on how you arrange things I suppose? But yeah, that's shitty

The way I see it, the one who gets asked to do something should have the right to ask for payment. Like, cosplayer asks photographer for a private photoshoot? Photographer should get payed for it. Photographer asks cosplayer for a private photoshoot? Cosplayer, TOO, has the right to ask for payment. Unless from the very start there was a TFP offer, that one made and the other reacted to.To me it’s a huge difference if I mutually enjoy something or just shoot because someone wants it to be shot by me. Elaborate MGS photoshoot? I’m all in, invest whatever I can in equipment, skill and money. Overwatch? Not my fandom, not very interested, sure, I’ll do it and do it good, but I don’t get any more out of it than any other artist that does a comission. You know what I mean?

In Germany you’re the devil if you want to be payed for cosplay photography that goes beyond some shots at a convention. People get mad about it and drop you all together, saying there’s enough others who do it for free. And that’s another huge problem - people doing stuff for free and ruining entire markets. (This doesn’t apply to cosplay, only. Don’t get me started on wimps who bought a DSLR kit and offer horrible 20€ couple photoshootings via facebook.)The “I will block everyone who brings this discussion up again.” part was actually a translated quote from a tweet I had on my twitter TL.

It’s not even like us few photographers who insist on that we should receive payment want to charge exorbitant amounts of money. If we did it the way you could charge some fashion label for an equal amount of work, then really no one would be able to afford it. But there’s not even a base to hold a discussion about appropriate payment on. From my point of view, most cosplayers just entirely block the idea of it and curse everyone who wants them to pay. Some photographers aren’t much better in regards to drawing hard lines and acting respectless. I’d appreciate it a lot if we could at least start calmly talking about it and bring up points from both sides to make the whole thing understandable for everyone? But well, things like that quote happen instead.

Conventions are a slightly different topic, cause... I’m there anyway and got some of my stuff with me, so if we got the time for three or four pics, why not? It won’t even be close to the style and quality I’m capable of under different conditions anyway. I rarely do that anymore, though, cause I prefer to shoot “right” and have other kinds of fun at conventions. Some photographers visit conventions for photos only and set a lot of stuff up, but I’m not one of them. I like to spend time with my friends there.

((And of course I will never charge anything for bringing my camera to other occasions I was invited to as a friend. lol That’s just collecting memories.))

Hope that gives a litte inside on what it’s like for me and a lot of others. After all it’s a lot more work than just taking a camera and hitting a button.
