Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

I was under the impression she has quit doing them indefinitely.

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

She did unfortunately :( That includes GTS as well... I asked her earlier this year when asking for a commission and she said she was done with them for good as they weren't making money.

Which is a damn shame as she made some really good ones :(

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

I have a difficult time believing it since i know a couple of her clips were #1 in sales for the week overall on her hosting site but im not sure what cut she gets on the videos but if thats the case maybe she needs a new hosting service

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

that's why she started to use Vidown but that didn't help much, she uses it for her website though.

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

Clips4Sale takes 35% on its cut. Also, being #1 for a day and its meaning depends on the total daily sales volume. It could have been a slow sales day. I would not look at "WE'RE #1!" as any solid indication of the revenue on a clip for Clips4Sale.

I would trust her that the numbers aren't there to support repeated work. But that wouldn't stop you from financing a clip of your own.

^ So many costs you wouldn't think of until you have to pay them, and on top of that serving a niche market inside a niche market does not help. I suffer from that all the time when it comes to table-top gaming projects....

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

I'm just repeating what she told me, feel free to ask her yourself :( Oh well... maybe we will get some just as good or even better someday, maybe :(

And before anyone says anything, I would ask for a commission, but can't afford her new prices. But I don't blame her, this line of work can get costly. Especially when it keeps getting posted on sites like Pornhub and others for free and every site you try to post always wants a share :/

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, until people start DOING IT...
Use unique identifier frames.
You have several pieces of unique information linked to those clips.
Cut. Them. OFF!

Archivists are a valuable part of the economy.
Pirates are not.

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

Cezar - I checked your work and here goes one opinion, just my opinion but maybe it helps in case you have a commercial development wish

I LOVE Shrinking Women comics but I deeply HATE Breast Expansion

Considering they are 2 very different fetiches, maybe separating them a bit more could grant you more successes and sales, I love your drawings, that is why I bothered to leave this opinion, do not get wrong


Cheers and keep up the excellent work

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

Um...okay? I always like feedback on my work, but what are you referring to here? I've only combined SW and BE in a couple of my works, and I have a lot of stuff that's just SW. Also, I'm not sure why this is in the thread about Missa...

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

Getting back on topic, it breaks my heart that the golden age of shrinking videos seems to have passed. Shrinking Dreams hasn't released a new one in months, Red Parrot started out with such promise but dropped off quickly, and Now Missa is gone. Makes my failed attempt at starting a studio (that played a big role in my "retirement" from art) all the more sad as it seems no one is interested in doing quality shrinking process videos anymore��

Re: Shrinking videos from Missa!
 

Well, if you think about it, there were only ever really four players in the game: Missa, Gary, Parrot, and 11fifty. The first two were motivated mostly by profit, and there's just not as much profit in SW relative to cost as there is in other genres that are cheaper to produce. 11fifty never got up to the quality standards of the other three and in any case has sold the studio and quit.

That leaves Parrot, who genuinely cares about the quality and is in it because he likes the material, but doesn't have enough free time to produce them with any regularity.

Still...at least he hasn't entirely left the field.
