| 150s | Good Time not and we and we he animation |

| 176s | brought all the way from oh yes oo oh I |
| 180s | don't know if you might hold it up see |
| 182s | if I can bring it close here's some |
| 183s | original art first sketches of the |
| 186s | characters from artist character |
| 189s | designer extraordinaire masham Moran um |
| 192s | who worked with us to design the 2D look |
| 195s | of the characters in plexiglass that was |
| 197s | severely beat up in the flight from |
| 199s | London it got it ple London England not |
| 202s | Ontario not Ontario um but |
| 205s | the drawing itself is pristine and |
| 209s | that's all we need and that's all we |
| 210s | need and that's not that's not a print |
| 212s | that's pencil on paper she sent it to me |
| 215s | which is one of a kind some of the |
| 217s | original warframes were were done pencil |
| 220s | paper this is this is the Legacy and the |
| 222s | tradition stays alive that's going to be |
| 224s | making its appearance in the devstream |
| 226s | room for the future so people are very |
| 227s | excited once it gets a slightly nicer |
| 229s | frame that isn't fully crap de with it I |
| 232s | hated the frame to begin with I'm glad |
| 234s | it's broken yeah I hate |
| 236s | plexiglass boo oh people wanted it to be |
| 240s | 19 minute stream but we did that last |
| 242s | week so but um the finished piece you |
| 245s | know we were working on what it could be |
| 248s | what we wanted to do with this short did |
| 250s | we want to have a voice in it or not and |
| 252s | then by the very end of a silent piece |
| 255s | you showed up I did I didn't even know |
| 257s | what we were doing at the time um we |
| 260s | were we were in the middle here you go |
| 261s | here he is sweat on his face yeah oh we |
| 263s | have to talk the sweat too yeah you want |
| 265s | to talk about the sweat first so often I |
| 268s | have my experience of Animation is that |
| 270s | I try to make everyone sweaty and then |
| 271s | people try to sneakily delete the sweat |
| 274s | drops if When I'm Not Looking this time |
| 277s | we were aligned yeah we're perfectly |
| 279s | aligned it's going to get sweaty we have |
| 282s | sweat dripping that's what makes them |
| 283s | human Proto frames they still have their |
| 286s | GL glands so that is important they're |
| 288s | stinky they're stinky and that's |
| 290s | beautiful that's why he says clean up |
| 292s | clean but when we when we when we |
| 294s | recording um 99 we've been doing it for |
| 296s | a while yeah I remember doing a session |
| 298s | where they were like we just need you to |
| 299s | say this line it might go in it might |
| 301s | not yeah um and they showed me the piece |
| 304s | and it was obviously his ass |
| 306s | shot it was his action it was action |
| 310s | shot it was it was always about the ass |
| 312s | because even even in the original |
| 314s | briefing I saw the the what do you call |
| 317s | it like your little like the real the |
| 320s | teaser real yes and I was just like |
| 322s | there's something very intentional about |
| 324s | this ass yeah like this is not this is |
| 327s | not just a little qu querer Design This |
| 329s | is intentional for all characters |
| 332s | Warframe and that is an important part |
| 333s | of the direction was imagine as if this |
| 336s | line is coming from his ass no that's |
| 338s | not true no that's not true I I'm sorry |
| 342s | put the bag back on bag on I feel like |
| 344s | the direction if I had if I had I wasn't |
| 346s | in the voice room but I feel like the |
| 348s | direction from me would have been |
| 350s | imagine he's clenching this whole time |
| 352s | let us and he's finally released I would |
| 355s | um what was about that is the I will be |
| 358s | serious for a second about the craft of |
| 360s | acting for one second um no we did that |
| 364s | we did that a lot we did that line quite |
| 366s | a few times because I think they really |
| 367s | wanted to get the sense of like the the |
| 370s | repetitious nature of the task that they |
| 371s | keep doing and the kind of the relief |
| 373s | but the resignation to them doing it |
| 375s | again and again and again and so we ran |
| 377s | it quite a few times to give you guys |
| 379s | hopefully as many options as you |
| 380s | possibly could have we had a big batch |
| 383s | um yeah see there's a lot I imagine you |
| 384s | probably thought that line was terrible |
| 387s | by the end you hear it so many times how |
| 389s | many times did we hear it |
| 390s | it just it was perfect I yeah we we |
| 392s | heard it at least once a day and |
| 394s | speaking of hearing it the music yes so |
| 398s | when when making an animated short how |
| 401s | does one pick a soundtrack and how did |
| 403s | we come to get what we got for ours so |
| 406s | quite often what happens which isn't |
| 408s | isn't my ideal way of working would be |
| 410s | that sometimes like it takes a long time |
| 413s | for the actual track to become finalized |
| 415s | and you kind of put it in at the end |
| 418s | whereas this one is instead of we were |
| 420s | kind of playing playing around in terms |
| 423s | of like well what do we want to do with |
| 424s | the music and stuff but I've heard this |
| 426s | song you guys sent us the song yes so we |
| 430s | sent a song that Matt schmer Eric |
| 432s | Preston and the team had been working on |
| 434s | called numb which you'll hear more about |
| 436s | soon uh and num was like our grunge |
| 440s | really kind of like |
| 442s | empty kind of kind kind of yeah just it |
| 445s | had a texture to it that we really like |
| 447s | so we thought hey Vena maybe you like |
| 449s | this song yeah and I I I think the |
| 451s | minute that I heard it I was like |
| 454s | honestly this is giving me a lot of |
| 455s | visuals already and it just kind of felt |
| 457s | like actually let's just use this one |
| 460s | which yeah honestly for Budget reason |
| 462s | also wonderful yeah like we yeah we got |
| 464s | to use an amazing track of our own and |
| 466s | we we had it so early in the process |
| 468s | that all of the timings that you see |
| 470s | throughout the piece like even like the |
| 472s | cut of uh lety staring at Elanor like |
| 476s | like it's cut to the yeah the track and |
| 479s | that is is going to be um one of the |
| 481s | many songs that are coming in 1999 and I |
| 483s | know people are very very very |
| 485s | interested oh yeah i' I've seen people |
| 486s | begging for the music you'll get it |
| 488s | you'll get it we are going to drop an |
| 490s | album so so don't don't worry about it I |
| 492s | have it yeah we I listen to it yeah we |
| 494s | have the music coming and for that |
| 496s | reason it should be you know just a part |
| 498s | of 99 which is um we're kind of in the |
| 501s | December month it's launching soon but |
| 504s | we're here all in La for you know the la |
| 507s | like a really big push to OTE the update |
| 510s | so we're doing our best to let people |
| 512s | know about what's coming everyone's |
| 514s | worked really hard on it so can you play |
| 517s | it we put a lot of work into it could |
| 519s | you please watch the animated short oh |
| 521s | yeah please do that as well watch the |
| 523s | animated short and tell us oh actually |
| 525s | the community did a survey because we're |
| 527s | adding a romance system in this update |
| 529s | of who I have bad news for |
| 532s | Ben I was expecting it to be honest I I |
| 536s | I know I know she's my sister that I |
| 539s | would absolutely Ely okay just not my |
| 542s | sister obviously but like I I'm I'm I'm |
| 544s | an Elanor fan Elanor was oh he had the |
| 546s | tongue I'm the tongue did sway a lot of |
| 549s | people I find did it did so there it was |
| 552s | why is she kind of why is she kind of |
| 554s | freaky like that wait yeah so Eleanor |
| 557s | will be um all of them are an option for |
| 559s | you as a player uh when you show up to |
| 562s | learn more about these characters get to |
| 563s | know them play their missions and figure |
| 565s | out what's going on and there is an |
| 567s | optional romance system that as of today |
| 569s | the team back in London Ontario Canada |
| 571s | and around the world they added |
| 572s | something um just visual to the computer |
| 576s | that I thought would be super fun so I I |
| 578s | love that system that was one of the |
| 580s | most joyful things because obviously |
| 581s | when you're doing when you're performing |
| 583s | these characters you want to give |
| 585s | they're badasses you know one of the |
| 587s | missions it's always it's it's that like |
| 589s | how can we make these characters as cool |
| 590s | as possible in combat and then there's |
| 592s | that ju toos when they're back at the |
| 594s | you know the home base of like the |
| 596s | softening of those characters of Journey |
| 599s | and some of you may never experience it |
| 600s | you know some of you may always |
| 601s | experience are you telling people |
| 603s | they're not going to experience love did |
| 604s | you not with me you just said no one's |
| 606s | interested in Romancing me so it's fine |
| 608s | it's fine no one wants him all you're |
| 611s | going to do is get mean Arthur um you'll |
| 614s | never know his tender side you don't |
| 616s | deserve |
| 618s | it he he has his walls up yeah he does |
| 621s | have his wall so does so does the actor |
| 623s | when they when they come crumbling down |
| 624s | it is warm inside y this is going to get |
| 626s | drama really fast cuz Rue's wife is in |
| 629s | chat and just said she's going to |
| 630s | romance |
| 631s | Arthur correct um I will she L an |
| 634s | underdog I will give I will give 100,000 |
| 638s | Platinum to anyone romance his other and |
| 641s | that's a guarantee isn't that right high |
| 644s | five the bag get the bag back on bag |
| 648s | on but but as we were making them I |
| 651s | think early on we knew they were all |
| 652s | romanceable or you know at least |
| 654s | friendable is that the word befriend yes |
| 658s | bef friendable so they all have a very |
| 660s | different outlook on their mission in |
| 662s | the short and in the game ahead so you |
| 665s | had to make us you had to make us love |
| 667s | them in in the time we had mhm yeah I |
| 669s | think like the I think the original |
| 671s | working title that I had for the for the |
| 673s | short was intermission which is kind of |
| 676s | a pun that it's like between missions |
| 678s | and it's kind of like when you go home |
| 679s | and you don't you don't have like that's |
| 682s | where you're just preparing for the next |
| 683s | one and you're constantly in the mo like |
| 686s | in the zone and it's in that boredom |
| 689s | between M missions that you sort of |
| 691s | start really fraying at the edges the |
| 695s | one thing you really nailed in that |
| 696s | short is like we were just saying |
| 698s | beforehand is in pretty much what |
| 700s | seconds you have defined their |
| 701s | personality really clearly I feel like |
| 703s | the characters just come out just in |
| 705s | their faces I like you you know them |
| 708s | immediately and you get that impression |
| 710s | obviously there's more to discover as |
| 711s | you play the game but it's like this is |
| 713s | a taste of what the story will be if you |
| 715s | choose to learn more about that |
| 716s | character yeah we really wanted to like |
| 717s | set the scene and establish some |
| 719s | something that you can go into the game |
| 722s | and you already know a little bit of |
| 724s | something of the reality that they're |
| 726s | living in and you know a little bit |
| 727s | about them and you kind of recognize |
| 729s | that there's tension and then you can go |
| 731s | in and kind of be like wait what's going |
| 732s | on guys like I watch I need to doctor |
| 734s | fill the situation right now so when you |
| 736s | when when you were do when you were |
| 737s | doing the short and you storyboarded it |
| 739s | did you have a clear idea of what the |
| 740s | story was going to be or what was the so |
| 743s | yes so I scripted it and I got one of |
| 745s | one of our other directors um Lou cares |
| 749s | storyboarded and I think we knew |
| 752s | essentially from the script we knew what |
| 754s | we were going to do yes in the short but |
| 757s | I think it really like visually comes |
| 759s | down to like the cuts and the way that |
| 761s | like we're looking at each other but we |
| 763s | had a pretty clear visual already in the |
| 766s | script it's like we cut from here to |
| 768s | here and here it's going to be a |
| 769s | close-up of face and we're going to just |
| 770s | be staring I think like the story want |
| 774s | wanted to be quite like contained into |
| 778s | that moment it's like |
| 780s | pregame MH um and it's it's Cannon but |
| 784s | it needs to also like be contained in |
| 786s | its own little CU there is like this |
| 789s | like I think maybe we spoke about this |
| 791s | there's a hopelessness to the hex |
| 793s | journey and it isn't until your player |
| 796s | is going to come into the story that's |
| 797s | able to affect change and make it so |
| 800s | that like there's a there's a nihilism |
| 802s | essentially to 1999 totally totally and |
| 806s | yeah and it comes through so well in the |
| 807s | style choices and everything that the |
| 809s | team at we wanted to get angst angst is |
| 812s | I love angst we are an angsty bunch and |
| 814s | it shows so yeah we are yeah I'm I'm a |
| 818s | big Evangelion fan and I just felt yeah |
| 821s | this this is what we're going to do |
| 823s | we're going to have human instrument |
| 825s | instrumentalization we are three minutes |
| 827s | oh oh yeah we only three minutes should |
| 828s | we do uh Q&A from chat um so so far we |
| 831s | have for the agenda we've gotten through |
