Hello all. I'm here to answer all your previously asked questions.
Let Us Start!
Let Us Start!
Number 1:
Why is episode one taking so long to come out?
Because animating takes a lot of time...
Usually just one episode can take over/around 500 Frames.
Longer episodes can take up to 1000 or more.
It's usually so many frames because I like to make my animations really smooth.
Drawing it from scratch and sending it to our colorists scene by scene takes time as well!
Animating isn't as easy as it looks!
So we ask you all to have patients!
It will come.
Number 2:
What Programs Do You Use To Animate?
I Usually Use Paint Tool SAI To Create The Frame Art.
Windows Live Movie Maker To Animate Everything Together,
And Sony Vegas Pro 12 For Special FX Or for Camera Effects.
I prefer using sai because it makes life easier!
I don't have to draw it frame by frame but just edit the lines, or add new ones.
Number 3:
Can I be a help to the series in anyway?
Yes, Of course! Xiangxin would love for users to advertise our series and share it!
If you're looking for a more advanced role... You'd need to audition.
Keep an eye out for open auditions! Or you could just audition anyways and if your good we may reserve the role for you.
You can apply by sending Me (Mea_WolfenX ) A Message here...
On Deviantart Or Via Email.
Number 4:
What happens if I'm apart of the cast and need to be inactive for a while?
Not a problem! If you are apart of the cast and inform us before you leave, we will set up an audition for a temporary Voice Actor/Actress (or other roles) to fill in for the time your gone!
But Note, if you're gone for very long and don't return we may just end up giving the role away.
Number 5:
How do I place a complaint about the series?
Something disturbed you?
No problem. If you have any problems regarding our series please tell me all about it.
Send me a PERSONAL MESSAGE Here.
Or to my email provided in YouTube descriptions.
Don't bother our voice actors or actress's... They are just acting out the role given.
Me as an owner, is responsible for the script and animation.
But please, If you just do not like the series then don't watch it. Simple.
Everyone else has their own opinions.
Number 6:
How long does it usually take you to animate?
Mm.... It usually depends on my mood or what I have to do during a day. Sometimes I can get 200 Frames done in a day, Sometimes Only 20.
So it's hard to answer this question.
By myself though with coloring an animating it took me way longer!
Now with a coloring team, It makes things much easier and faster to get done.
Number 7:
What If You Decide To Stop Animating?
Well, If it comes to terms where I will have to put Xiangxin on hold.
I would like to proudly hand over my series to someone else.
Either temporary or for the time being.
I seriously doubt I'd give up though...
At worst I think i'd just take longer to release episodes.
Number 8:
What Does Xiangxin Mean? And How do you say it?!
Haha! We Get That A lot.
The Name Xiangxin Originates From The Traditional Chinese Language.
Xiangxin Is A Word For Peace.
It is pronounced - "See-Un-Sea"
Beautiful Right?
