Hi Folks,

welcome to my new iClone project "The Tavern".
This will be my Work In Progress Diary. Here I will share all the steps in the development of this series.

In my last project I visited the cold harsh universe of the "ALIEN" franchise. It was fun and creating this 43 minute monster of a movie took a lot of time and consumed about 3 years of my life span.
It was great experience, but I was really exhausted after I finished the movie.
But I started right away this new project back in summer 2020. I wrote the first drafts of the story an me and my friend Andreas worked on the main set of the movie. The tavern "Red Crow Inn". It's a great set and it was very difficult to convert this set into iClone, because it's originally a very high poly set from DAZ studio. But we managed to get it trnasfered and after hours of polishing and rreducing, we got the set running in iClone. Back then I made some tests for the lighting and here is the last test I did.


After that, my daily work in the german film industry took over and I had to step back for some months to gain enugh strengh to start a new project with iClone.

WHAT WILL I DO?

This time I want to do an animated series with a high fantasy setting. There will be six episodes. Each episode will have a length of 8 to 12 minutes. May goal is to release each episode after 6 to 7 months of production.
Right now, episode 1 to 3 have a script. The story will focus on the female sellsword FREYA DEWCLAW. Each episode will have it's own narrative but there will be an overall story arc. The stories will have thrilling elements and some comedy stuff. I will target an adult audience, so there are some swear words in it and in few cases some mild nudity.

Today I started the casting on "casting call club". If you are interested in participation, you can go here and audition for a role:

The casting will end on 01/06/2021. This will also be the start of the production of episode 1 "The Tavern It Is ...".

Here is the cast I already created ...
