Perfectionism has been a thing that has always haunted me as an artist. It has prevented me from creating so many things purely out of the fear of failure. It's been a thing i've been battling to overcome as of late and that's why I love my One Page #ttrpg game jam submission so much. 1/3

A one page TTRPG called Ant Gallery. The center of the page is filled with different shapes or frames that the player will fill in.

The bottom of the page has three text blocks. One describing what is going on within the game. Another how to play the game and the last a set of tables to roll on to become inspired.

The top of the page the title Ant Gallery and both sides of the page has curtains.

I adore this little game, not just because ANTS but also because it's such a clever way around many adults' fear of "art." You're creating tiny pieces of art -- for ANTS! -- so that already sets the bar low (haha). Not that ants don't deserve great art. ant art ant art ant art ant art 🐜🖼️🐜🖼️🐜🖼️🐜🖼️

Updated my prices for this summers! If you are in the #ttrpg space and need some video editing work done, I am looking for some new clients at a discounted price! Examples of my work here: zachhavenlok.portfoliobox.net Want to work together? Email me here: Talesfromtheunknownttrpg@gmail.com

A Pricing Guide that reads:

Hourly Rates:

Here are my discounted hourly rates. How this works is that I will meet with you and discuss what needs to be done for a given project. I will then quote you with how many hours it will take to finish the project so that you know how much my services will cost before we begin working together.

Basic Editing - $25/Hour

Basic editing includes trimming, cutting, and arranging footage,
basic color correction, audio adjustments, adding music, and simple transitions.

This is great for those who have something recorded or are planning to record and need their video put together and polished.

Advanced Editing - $50/Hour

Advanced editing Includes complex video effects, motion
graphics and design, advanced color grading, audio mixing, and other post process visual enhancements.

This is great for those who have an idea for a video with all the bells and whistles. This could be for a bigger project or a really special video that you want to pull out all the stops on.

A second pricing guide that reads:

Promotion Trailers - $350

Do you have a new game/product launching soon and need a trailer to help promote? Well, I'm your dude! I’ve created trailers for a handful of successful funding campaigns and would love to help you get eyes on your project. Add an additional short version of the trailer for $50.

For example, check my website in my bio.

How To Play Videos - $150

Need a quick explainer video to introduce players to your game? Let me help you with that! I can create a short 3-5 minute video explaining the basics of your game to an audience that you can use on your website or game page. Like Promotion Trailers, you can add an additional short version of this type of video for $50.

Short Videos - $75

Do you need one or a couple short videos to help showcase special things about your game? This is the tier for you. I originally grew both my Tiktok and Youtube off of short videos talking about TTRPGs and have found this is my strength. For multiple shorts, we can discuss a discount.

NEW THIS MONTH: Over the Dungeon Wall by @goblinsandgardens.bsky.social 🌱 A tiny Risograph-printed zine and an expansion for Dungeon Wilds. A seven-level fully-mapped dungeon - meet vengeful Hero ghosts (to fight) as well as helpful, quest-giving resident Monsters (to befriend)!

The cover of Over the Dungeon Wall, an adventure in the dungeon wilds. A risograph-printed 1/8 letter folded zine in black and red. Title appears in wiggly storybook-style font. The image is a dark sky above a white and red brick wall with thorny vines crawling on it

An interior example from Over the Dungeon Wall. The left hand page begins "Hello Monster! Welcome to the Dungeon Wilds" along with introductory text about the adventure - what you're looking for and how you'll do it. A skateboarding bird wearing a hat appears on the bottom right of the page. The righthand page is titled "Exploring the Dungeon Floors with a Map" and includes an illustration of a dungeon floor map along with directions for how to proceed
