Even if you drop to two a year still be fantastic. Also I think we all can understand that your store has other niches to do. Many of which are much easier to get finished than these videos. So just posting here and on twitter every now and again is more than enough between projects. Any WIP material even if it concepts and scripts is something. There is a pretty big void for these videos so no need to push yourself.
Lastly many producers fall off due to low sales numbers due to piracy. Producers will stop making videos in this niche after a while because of the time commitment alone. We know it is expensive to make these videos and making a profit is also important, if not breaking even at least. So as long as you are keeping sane, keeping in the black, and having fun then we are here for you for the long haul.
Additionally don't feel the need to stay in one thread. Making new threads to keep your content organized and easily visible is welcomed( at least IMO). Doing one new thread per video and then having one main update thread would be dandy. However I can also understand wanting to have just one thread as less over head to keep track of.

Thank you for the reassuring words! I actually chipped away at a good chunk tonight, so I'm happy about that, lol. I'm trying to see if I can squeeze in some "insert filming" soon this week (close ups on props, clothing remnants falling, etc), plus trying to "photoshop construct" one of the backdrops for the last part of the scene.
Thankfully, I've only stumbled upon one illegal upload of a previous scene so far... and clips4sale swooped in and took care of it
Still, it stung seeing just how many views the bootleg version had, and how if even half of those views paid for the scene, it would've been a ton of money.
Meanwhile, aside from juggling all of the metaphorical balls, I'm also stressing over trying to schedule follow up filming with Canary Addison for her scene that I recently teased. I mean, on the bright side, we filmed everything leading up to her completely naked at least? Lol. However, I had a whole "final act" scripted out as well, but of course now her and I can't align our schedules to finish filming... fingers crossed for early June to resume!
After that, I'm playing it by ear... but yeah, still aiming for bi-monthly for now!
