It just wouldn't leave me alone, so I put more effort into making "Rufus and the Diving Board" sound for all sizes. It was a really confusing task and after many attempts I managed to create video files in much smaller file sizes. So I was wrong about Shotcut, it works, even with tiny bugs. A big help was the converter.app, without their help this wouldn't have been possible. The 8k version is now only 4.5 MB instead of more than 20 MB, but with a slight loss of image quality. I hope you don't mind and still like it.

This file is now available in the Special Folders for supporters, in 2k (Silver, 1080p height), 4k (Gold, 2160p) or 8k (Platinum, 4320p) size depending on the tier. A small 720p version will be used for promotional purposes.

The good news: To find out how the Shotcut software works, I added some sound to "Rufus and the Diving Board" [KiBunch003]. It's not perfect and it could be much better, but with some sound it works better than mute. Now available for my supporters here. It will not be available in the public lair because it's more of a test. The bad news is that this software didn't accept the 4k version (it cut the length to 4 seconds instead of the full 8 seconds) and doesn't show any indication that it can edit and produce 8k videos at all. In other words, I don't want to use it because I promised to make creations up to 8k in size. So there is nothing left but to look for another video suite.

For Supporters: ClubBanana003 is not a new work, but the first of the Monique animations to be created with a vector graphics program. I corrected her boobs, they move a bit better now, and I fixed some other bugs as well. Now as an animated WebP file in 2k, 4k and 8k format in the Special Folders.
