@rochellaine Katie would rather be invisible, and she would probably only be visible to her mom. Brant doesn’t like anyone. ๐ Just kidding, but he would probably still rather be famous. Ogden would rather be invisible, and only visible to his niece, who went missing and he’s been trying to find, because then if someone saw him he would know it was her. Wouldn’t that be handy? ๐

May 15, 2018 at 8:00 pm #72624Aaand I forgot to post a question. Silly brain. ๐ Would your character rather not remember who they are or have awful memories they wish they could forget?

May 17, 2018 at 12:40 am #72787In general?ย Iย would prefer they would have awful memories. Writing PTSD sounds fun. ๐
But then self-amnesia sounds compelling too.
For a specific character… I’d say not remember who they are.
Would your character rather be portrayed by a live actor, or by an animated character (any type of animation).
May 17, 2018 at 4:59 pm #72811@leumeister My character (Rin) would probably rather be portrayed by a live actor, cuz she’s just real like that ๐
Would you character rather have a perfect life and but a terrible past, or a perfect past and a terrible life?

www.jennaterese.comMay 28, 2018 at 11:48 pm #73374@rochellaine Oooh, that’s a tough one. Ariella would rather be invisible, Adrian as well. Cadenza is very extroverted and needs social interaction, so she would rather be a celebrity. Besides, everyone who she might have liked has died, both friends and family members. (Oh, that got dark really quickly…) Brynna would rather be invisible. I’ll add another character: Alek! He’d rather be a celebrity.
@daughteroftheking Nice one! Ariella already doesn’t remember who she is, and she already has awful memories she wishes she could forget. O.o If she had a choice, she’d rather know who she is and keep the awful memories, since, as she learns, time can dull their sting.Adrian and Cadenza would choose the awful memories. Brynna would rather forget who she is, since she’s more sensitive and I suppose those memories would leave more of an impact. Alek doesn’t like who he is, so he would rather forget and forego the awful memories that I have in store for him. *evil laugh*
@leumeister Ariella and Alek would choose an animated character. Adrian, Cadenza, and Brynna would choose live actors.
@jenwriter17 Ariella would rather have a perfect life and a terrible past. Same with Alek and Brynna. Cadenza and Adrian would rather have a perfect past and a terrible life, since so much could have changed for them if they’d had a perfect past!!Oh, now my turn to do a question. Would your character(s) rather be feared by all or loved by all?

May 29, 2018 at 12:32 am #73376@ariella-newheart Katie would rather be loved, Brant would rather be feared, Jasper would rather be loved, and Ogden would rather just continue his anonymous existence. Not being known is kind of the point of moving into the woods and becoming a grumpy hermit. ๐
Would your character rather face their greatest fear or have their worst secret told?

May 29, 2018 at 1:32 pm #73385@ariella-newheart Rin would probably rather be feared by all, cuz she’s used to that anyway ๐ Uma would be the opposite though

www.jennaterese.comMay 29, 2018 at 2:48 pm #73387Jenna would rather forget who she is, have a perfect life and a terrible past, be portrayed as an animated character, and be loved by all.
Would your character rather have to be rescued from a tree by firefighters, or never be able to climb something again? Jenna would rather be rescued…
@daughterofthekingย @leumeisterย @jenwriter17ย @ariella-newheartYou can pronounce it however you want.
May 29, 2018 at 4:00 pm #73388@dekreel Rin would probably want to be rescued. for sure. ๐
Would your character rather jump off a cliff wearing a jet-pack thatย mightย work, or jump off wearing a backpack thatย mightย be a parachute?

www.jennaterese.comMay 29, 2018 at 10:33 pm #73389Oh, are we still playing this game?ย Cool! ๐
@daughteroftheking That is a horrible question, but I guess Chara would probably rather have horrible memories, because then at least she would still have her good memories as well.
@leumeister Probably a live-action actress.ย If it were animated it would have to be the really old style animation like that used in the Disney hand drawn animation of Snow White, though Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty styles are okay as well.ย Definitely not modern Pixar style animation! ๐
@jenwriter17 I love that question!ย Chara would much rather have a terrible life but a perfect past, because the perfect past would give her the knowledge and strength to get through the terrible times, while a terrible past would only make a perfect life even less meaningful.
@ariella-newheart Aw, I don’t know. ๐ Either way it seems like she would be a terrible person, since if she is loved by all that means she’s loved by even the bad people, and even Jesus isn’t loved by everyone.ย Let’s see…fear can also mean respect, so since you said fear and not fright Chara would chose to be feared by all in that sense, meaning that they would respect her, and respect can include love.ย (She also thinks she is not respected, so that’s what she really wants, after all. ๐ )
@dekreel Haha, Chara loves hiking, and she also doesn’t mind being rescued, so that’s an easy choice! ๐Now my question: In the military, would your character rather carry a gun or a medical kit?
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
May 29, 2018 at 10:41 pm #73390@rochellaine Rin, probably a gun. She’s used to that ๐ But she still likes to help people…

www.jennaterese.comMay 29, 2018 at 11:18 pm #73394Whaaat?? Why do you… uhh,ย does she not like CG animation? ๐
Well, logic dictates that a jetpack thatย mightย work would give one a higher chance of survival than a backpack that might be a parachute…ย I would take the jetpack. But a specific character…? (has to think of one) James Manning would take the jetpack too.
James Manning would also rather have the gun. He’d want to defend himself, and he doesn’t know first aid very well.
And James would rather be rescued.
Would your character rather be flung by an unknown entity to the other side of the galaxy, or be caught up in a war with a nearly unstoppable force that came out of a wormhole?
May 30, 2018 at 12:36 am #73405Hm, that’s weird.ย My post disappeared.
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
May 30, 2018 at 12:40 am #73406Oh… So… Okay… You’re less into the heavily stylized characters in CG… I get it… I actually don’t mind the stylization myself, but I prefer to make “lightly” stylized photorealistic characters if they’re humans at least.
The “bug eyes” as you so call them are actually to make them look cuter. Sorta like the manga/anime style, which you probably don’t like either. And an added, but arguably beneficial, side effect of that is that people don’t compare themselves to the characters as much. Another probable reason is to compensate for the “stiffness” of the facial rigs to make them a bit more expressive.
So if you were to be in a movie where the characters are like the ones (or similar – but better! XD) in The Polar Express (CGI motion capture movie), you’d be more inclined to use CGI? If so, great! XD I use 3D animation for my animation style (b’cuz I can’t draw very well, and I have to draw EVERY SINGLE FRAME if I were to traditionally animate something! – big respect for those who do), and the fact that you said not Pixar style kinda stung… :/ ๐
But why do you like art following the real world? The point of art is that it’s not real. I mean, I like photorealism, but there’s a time and place for heavily stylized. I appreciate movies like Frozen, Big Hero 6, and Moana (some of my favorite recent animated movies), enjoying not only the story but the way the story is told. A lot of thought is put into the art direction so that the art can accentuate, or even add to the story.
I certainly understand where you’re coming from. And it all comes down to one’s opinion. I don’t want to change it, as much as I do, if that makes any sense. ๐ I hope I came across as respectful in my counter-argument. ๐
Anyway, yeah nice picking up that was about Star Trek: Voyager. ๐ The unstoppable force from the wormhole was describing the events in Deep Space 9 (possible spoilers, sorry).
No, they wouldn’t be very fun, would they? ๐ I mean, what with the Vidiians, Species 8472, and the Borg in the Delta Quadrant, and the invaders from the Gamma Quadrant… It would certainly keep you busy and on your toes either way. ๐
I think James Manning would prefer to be fighting the “unstoppable force”. ๐
May 30, 2018 at 1:35 am #73407Huh… It did… : .ย Odd.. I think that happened to me recently, actually.
You’re not goin’ crazy, I know you posted something. ๐ I’ll see if I can’t find it in my history or something.
