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
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
