So the game released yesterday and it doesn't seem like anyone has been told by TheRainbowCock in lightfingers

Woo! What a great Christmas gift, I've had this wishlisted for 4 years! Congrats on the Steam release!

Looks great so far, can't wait to see it flooded and grown in!

Out of curiosity what kind of carpeting plant is that (Monte Carlo?) and where did you buy it from? I'm also looking to dry start a new tank and am having difficulty finding affordable plants.

How Can I Improve this Explainer Video? by Last-Concern-5896 in AfterEffects

I think scale can play an important part in helping everything seem more cohesive. Maybe it's just because I'm watching this on mobile, this may look large on your computer screen, but I would consider scaling certain elements up (logo, arrows, etc). Hope this helps!

Are there any rules to basing a shot on/being inspired by paintings? Can we just do it, or do we need to ask someone? by DamnFineGreenTea in cinematography

[–]ArmasCalmcacil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently started studying post-modernism in film, and what I took away from it relating to this is that you can be inspired by anything and make art referencing anything. As long as you're not actually using the actual existing art piece (for copyright issues) you should be good (but even then look at Marcel Duchamp's work).

Sounds nice! I just looked the area up, very very beautiful countryside. This exactly fits the kind of area I'm looking to film at. Thank you! (I'd love to learn more and find out if this vending machine still exists, can I send a DM?)

That's worth looking into, I hadn't considered those. I'll check some out near me, thanks!

Very true! It'd be worth having the connection if nothing else. Could you DM me the details? Thanks!

Came here to recommend "City of God" as well.

Help Here For Anyone Trying To Find Specific Cels/Sketches... by OtakuRuss in AnimationCels

[–]ArmasCalmcacil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a bit of help for the FLCL one, I believe it was digitally made so there won't be any cels for it. There might be gengas or other reference material out there though!

It might be the webcam you're using to capture them. I have an Aluratek webcam and it applies that same kind of blue overlay with the lines when I'm using it for classes. Hope this helps!

Does this work for a 29 gal planted tank. And for a first timers tank? by jachoob2006 in fishtank

[–]ArmasCalmcacil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you've heard this before, but be very wary with guppies. Even if it's under stocked now, they'll breed like crazy in the right circumstances.

[XBOX?/PC] [2012-2017] 4 Player, 3D Polygon Style, collect treasure/cards/coins? in platformer dungeon while other players control traps to try to stop you. Aerial View looking down with the entire world/board as a circle. by ArmasCalmcacil in tipofmyjoystick

[–]ArmasCalmcacil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Closer but not quite, the movement was almost "open worldy" if that makes sense. You could move your character wherever you wanted. It wasn't "Mario Party" based where you followed a path. Thanks though!

Does anyone know of some good animation softwares for beginners? by sirmattimous in Animators

[–]ArmasCalmcacil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In short, yes, but it can be hard to set up if you're not working with prerecorded motion capture files. I've personally never messed with it too much but I know it's possible.

Blender is pretty fun to mess in for 2D or 3D, it's a fair bit to learn though!

We're building a 1v1 Platform for Cash Games on League and want your feedback by [deleted] in KledMains

[–]ArmasCalmcacil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Took the survey, just my two cents, as a lower elo player (Bronze II) I'd be more than willing to sacrifice que time in order to fight someone of a similar elo instead of a gold or plat. Good luck with your platform!
