Been working on some particle effects and retiming and this is the result of playing around a bit. I love creating destruction FX like these and will be doing more in the future. I'll post some breakdowns if you want to see them.

It's so crazy how many people say shit with such confidence and conviction, and then end up dead wrong.

That’s the internet for you…

Fuck it. I love nostalgia. Why stop at Polio? Let’s bring back the plague in time for the remake of #Nosferatu.

Adobe, why is this Substance plan so impossible to find? If you didn't know it existed, you'd think your only option is the $50/m plan. 🤨

Dear schools on LinkedIn, I don’t need a Masters Degree. Stop messaging me. In fact, in my industry, I’d probably be laughed at if I had a (useless) masters degree. Thanks for doing your research though.

“Is it even hardware accelerated bro?”

I learned this a long time ago and can vouch... and I keep a duplicate of the "good version" so I can go back to it later and put it on my reel. 😀

Isn’t that what most people do these days? Present their under researched and inexperienced opinion as fact… And if you disagree, they start with the personal attacks.

That’s the playbook.

That's interesting. Would be crazy if that happened!

What I love about it too is that it's beautiful and it just reinforces the fact that we've kinda surpassed the point where pretty much all cameras produce a legit image these days.

The weather is not cooperating. Need another sunny day to shoot the rest of this video, but the VFX are basically done. Here's my Nuke "script"

I always tried to be nice to people. I thought it was more fun that way. You get to make friends that you could practice with. Unfortunately, I was quiet and awkward so I didn't have many friends lol

Oh wait... still am... damn... 🥴

Yeah defaulting to racial slurs... if that's someone's default... it's probably (definitely) not a heat of the moment thing. They're just a racist heh

Ok one final one before I change the look entirely. This one is done with all particles from #TyFlow instead of using geometry as the source for the main explosion

Maybe it’s just me but I never talked shit when I was a kid while playing. Granted, the only online play we had was Xband on SNES and Genesis (lol) but I still never talked crap. I was always just about getting better and having fun. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah maybe. But seriously, if you need to send that type of hate to random people, there’s probably a lot more going on there so hopefully whoever that is figures it out 🤷‍♂️

He’s probably 12 so how can I even let that affect me hahaha they’re expecting you to talk shit back so when you’re nice, they don’t say anything back lol

They're probably like 12 so.... not much thought about what they say there. lol

Sometimes I forget that they're probably like 11... lol so any empathy or thought about how what they say might affect someone is completely lost.

Not really, they're just more annoying to use lol aside from that, no difference, even when using via bluetooth

When I do color jobs, I use the Mini but the Micro has so much functionality that I might just stick with it. I'll miss Append and also the knobs for the curves but that's not really a big deal. I still have the Mini if I ever want to go back.
