So, it's been a while....

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, it's been over a year since I made any posts on here about Project ZERO. Life happened, and ya'll know how that is. hahah Thankfully, I have a bit more time now and I'll be able to continue writing. A lot has happened in my life since my last post and hopefully it's enough inspiration and experience that'll help in the writing of this story. Expect more soon.

ACTUALLY, at the moment of this message, Chapter 3 is currently in the works. YAY PROGRESS!!

BOOK COVER MADE!

So, this is a homework assignment for my Typography 1 class (make a book cover), but I'm going to use this as one of my visuals for Pouya's class. Killing two birds with one stone. YAY!!

VISUAL DEVELOPMENT! GO GO!!!

Pouya just looked over my blog. Said everything was good, but that I had to create a visual embodiment of both Saga and Nexus. That and lots of visual development.

I've kind of already decided that Nexus is going to be some giant hulking mass of black/blue/purple fire with an evil face. I mean it's not concrete, but yeah... Still working on that.

Also, in development is Chapter 3. Halfway done with that. It'll be up on the blog soon.

ACTS

Have to write a summary of my first two chapters in ACTs for Conceptual Storytelling.

ACT I

Clarence is scootering around making deliveries for his parents bakery. The wind pushes him down an escalator and into angry gang members. Clarence escapes, but loses his deliveries. He walks away depressed and gets surprised as he accidentally bumps into a boy named Ken, with a high and mighty attitude. Ken get pissed off and pushes Clarence into a wall. The two spirits, Saga and Nexus, enter Clarence's and Ken's bodies respectively and Ken walks away unknowingly.

ACT II

Clarence begins to walk away when suddenly an explosion far in the background stops him in his tracks. Clarence stops to look out of curiosity. Saga's voice comes out of his mouth asking if he's just going stand and watch. Clarence flips out as Saga starts having a conversation with him through his own body. After no explanation is given, Saga takes full control of Clarence's body and  runs off to the burning building.

ACT III

Clarence's body races down the sidewalks and finally reaches the building. Clarence shoots up the stairs and out on the 49th floor. As Clarence enters the room, a blue fire ball is shot at Clarence face. Clarence's body bends backward and pulls off an incredible dodge, but then falls backwards. Saga reveals that he can only control Clarence for one minute a day and from this point on, he's on his own. Clarence flips out once again to find out the one who caused the explosion and the fire ball was the boy Ken he had met earlier. Ken is now possessed  with the spirit of Nexus, an evil time traveling demon. Clarence then learns that the spirit's name that possesses him is named Zero, but then changes it to Saga. Saga tells Clarence how to fight, but Clarence uses the powers incorrectly and nearly collapses the building. Ken jumps away and escapes and Clarence runs for the stairs as emergency sirens could be heard in the streets below.

Scraps/Brainstorming

It's not really much, but I thought I post some brainstorming/scraps that I've been using I have more I'll post up later.

Damn grammar nazi...

Lawrence Ou went on a grammar spree all over my first two chapters. Pouya suggested that I pay him in candies. Lawrence said that for every grammar mistake I got wrong, I owe him a candy. I now owe him 47 candies. I need a pinata *sigh*.

EDIT: He just corrected this post. I now owe him 49 candies. DAMN IT.

Storyboarding (WIP)

The storyboards I have were done very quickly so I need to go back and make them clearer and more presentable.
