i made it to level 2, lol

fucking ree

<:pepe_why:378719408367075333>

i wish there was a little bit less gravity

No you don't lol you'll crash into the ceiling

I mean maybe, I'll try that

the ship drops too fast when i let off the gas

Maybe if I decrease gravity and increase drag...

and the frame rate was a bit choppy, but that isnt that big a deal

Probably because I put a bunch of lighting in the scene.

i'll take a second look at it here in a little bit

i made it to level 5, had to give up though @Thomas the Sowell Train [USA]

You are the champion!

I don't know maybe Reaps will beat you once he gives it a try.

I hope you at least enjoyed the fresh *A E S T H E T I C*

very *V A P O R W A V E*

what do you call that thing where you put an image or text on a video and make it track to a specific thing in the video so it follows that point? Like i want to put an image of a persons head over the video of another person so it roughly tracks and moves as they move so I don't have to reposition it frame by frame for the entire video.

tweening?

I feel like I'm going to instantly regret Googling the word tweening... <:thronk:441701565607444482>

nah it's safe

lol

nah, not tweening... i'll try and upload an example

you see the way the "nice gif" text is sorta locked to the movement of JB's head?

i need to learn how to do that but i can't look up a tutorial on youtube if I don't know what the technique is called lol

oh right I get you

yeah idk

just motion tracking I guess?

yeah that would kinda make sense wouldn't it 😊

hmmm, don't know whether to just try motion tracking meme or go balls out and try deepfake meme instead...

either way it's learning something from scratch

tracking is super easy in After Effects or Nuke - takes like 5 minutes to learn if you have prior knowledge of those programs or maybe 10 if you don't 😃

what's Nuke? I normally edit video in PowerDirector but recently got DaVinci so currently migrating over to it.

Nuke is... expensive.... it's what a lot of film studios use, eg Weta, Industrial Light & Magic, Disney Animation and Dreamworks Animation. The tracking software in it is really good and the node system is so nice to use, so if you can get your hands on it I'd recommend it but After Effects is good too and certainly more affordable. I've heard of DaVinci but only briefly - I was only really taught about the more industry standard compositing programmes.

I think I might have after effects, though I've never used it. I was told DaVinci is sort of an industry staple, was the main reason I decided to make the switch to it tbh.

I think it is for smaller studios but I personally haven't heard anything about it other than the odd mention but since I've only done 3D courses (compositing was a pretty small aspect) I'm not exactly an authority but from what I know it's not super widely used but that's in New Zealand, in other countries it may be. Most compositing softwares are similar enough that transferring from one to another isn't too hard so don't worry too much about what's used in the industry, what's used changes pretty often as well and depends a lot on the studio and the scope of what they create. Choose a software that you like and if you're teaching yourself then any with a lot of resources online is a good idea too.
Just looked up DaVinci, it looks pretty similar to After Effects and maybe with some Premiere mixed in. It certainly looks like a decent software and is definitely used in the industry, if you like it stick to it!

Yeah a lack of online resources was the main reason I wanted to get away from powerdirector. i've been using it for about 6 years now and i still really like it's simplicity but trying to find tutorials for anything new was a chore. DaVinci seems to have a lot of more expert features that I'll probably never get around to learning but it does seem to have a decent following and hopefully my basic knowledge will transfer across from powerdirector without too much hassle.

so is this chat about art stuff or?....

Ye

My artism know many bounds

Nice

not bad, could be 10 times better if you took your time with some of those

yeah but i can only do it in the free time when im in the mood so...

time be the thing i lack

do a bit at a time, it's worth it

i am not good at artin

That is a lot of hotdogs

@Puma look at this guy's work

it's 10/10

Wow, he has a Democrat one as well

but he gets flak for the republican

dank meme idea:

the Father Ted scene where Ted is explaining the difference between "small" and "far away"

https://youtu.be/GFTgkibl7DU?t=31

superimpose Graham "Glinner" Linehan's face onto Dougal
give Ted a "Policeman's helmet"

Ted: "These women have vaginas"
Ted: "But the women out there have penises"
Ted: "Vaginas"
Ted: "Penises"
Ted: "Ah forget it you Transphobe"

I have neither the skill nor the patience to make it right now and I don't want it getting cold. Someone should make it and send it to Dankula.

do your own dirty work you scavenger

no u

I looked at doing it

but fuck after effects

I could do the tracking if it was text but I don't know how to overlay an image and make it track and I can't find a tutorial for it lol

AE has built in face tracking apparently

i think i just found out how to do it in DaVinci... might give it a go later after some sleep

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mgtt6dj7_34

what is that?

just some 3d art i made a while ago

there we go

did i do a good

aren't memes technically something you create and therefor can be posted here?

Hey, that's pretty neat.

Too bad the free version of World Machine only exports to 512x512.

Looks like shit up close.

Basically useless for any realistic terrain generation.

OwO

That looks awesome

Nice

didnt make this I just like this picture and wanted to post it

Nice

O shit boi

those airsoft guts look easy to hook into arduinos

<:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

looking into cheaper options now. might have to build my own motorized airsoft mechanism

the motors some of these things use are in themselves not cheap

Messing around landform generation again today.

trying to figure out how to do some terracing but I can't get the right control over it.

Ah, I think a clamp will work.

that reminds me of a tool I had fuckin years ago

for generating photo realistic landscape

this one is called world machine

I'm just using it to experiment with how certain generators and filters work

terragen I think

going to have to use some other software to do it or make my own

if I actually want to implement it that is, the world machine software is $299

so basically I can't render terrains to any viable resolution
