thanks alot I'll try that thumbnailing?

alot of what you said- i've never even heard of, hence what I'm talking about- thanks alot!

THIS! I didn't know what it was called before so everybody can scratch all my old threads. Its not storyboarding. Because even when you're story boarding you need to think how is this shot/scene gonna look! This is where i have the problems. When I did 3D machinima it was easy to move a camera aroun...

*** I retitled this thread Because this is what I'm talking about Any student can learn to storyboard or draw or animate- I'm talking about the artistic eye. The actual shot. Lines and symmetry and the beauty of art. Somethings you can see can have this quality- other things are mechanistic reproduc...

I agree with Slowtiger. Planning is everything. Animation is not film or video tape where, "hey I got an outline and lets shoot some things." Ad-lib and re-shoot the same shot 20 different times and picking the best performance. And then if it doesn't look right go back and do it again. T...

I'm looking at some of my junk on youtube and it seems that my art work is regressing while at the same time, the animation may be getting a tad smoother but I just think that's because I'm animating in 24fps now instead of 15. I know ppl say you can double up on 12s but I actually am seeing the dif...

Really? Without keying 'drop to floor' on every frame, most BVH imports don't work in Poser. Version 5 OK, still in version 8. Poser has a bug in the BVH imports that make me have to crop off the hand bones because it twist then 90 degrees. Did not have it in version 5. For 3d work I'm going to use...

Very Halloweenish! :) The credits say you used Garry's Mod, which I never heard of before. Wiki says it's a physics-based game engine. How did you use this program in this vid? just for backgrounds in this- you can do alot with garrys mod thought. Basically it is a sandbox and you can make anything...

I'm guessing you mean mostly the shots with the solid colored backgrounds/speedlines...yeah pretty much- i wanted to breakup the ambience

Watch here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4dyzOc1Jv0 OMG I had so many problems trying to make this stupid thing. My computer died...Then it got a virus....UGH...I lost motivation....JEEZ Well anyways, heres a short Zombie cartoon for halloween- basically I just wanted to use this to try and make s...

well i got a new computer with a better graphics card and its a dual core and windows 7 OS everything works fine except when I got to export my animation Now since it is new- i don't know if its the OS Win 7 (used to use xp) maybe its the dual core? Maybe i don't have the video codecs which i will t...

lol thats not bad-

that shot is part of an anime satire...

nice blood effect on the decap hmm...

gives me ideas

like, maybe more head can find a tip on making it better. Stan Lee suggest that! He says he write down what he doesn't like and also what he does like when he looks at other works of comics. Same could be said for animation. hey thats a really good idear thanks- didn't think of that thanks every1 f...

Whilst working on whatever you are working on- You gradually tend to hate it more and more the further you work on it and the further it gets to completion? this angst is driving me mad! i keep working on things then take a break- after a while I come back and I still hate it and want it to die a qu...

i don't even know what masks are let alone use them...hmm
