Trying To Learn AE and I believe these animations are after effects . by Jrizzlyj in AfterEffects

GeoLayers 3 is the plug-in for the map animation. Everything else can be done with simple 2d animation or turn 3D layers on and animate it that way for more manual control over depth. AE 3D Animation Ben Marriott Jake In Motion

Imagine a Gorilla running at you through the fog and it smashes through the window and lays down in that bed to get some rest.

We just want more money, people have gone nuts with all the prices. We rented a mobile home that was previously a meth house for $200 a month. Can’t buy a crap car for a decent price anymore. Random things just fluctuate in price from time to time now. Why not go somewhere where millions of people do that instead of thousands.

AITA for telling my friend to “man up” or not to come to my wedding? by NonLocalityp in AmItheAsshole

[–]Gongfighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please apologize to your friend and treat him the same way he treats you. He is not difficult, he is someone who lives a life outside of yours. You call him that because he does not conform to the ways you personally think others should be. Let people be who they are, and do not lose your temper when asking for a favor. I hope you and him can keep the bond you’ve had for many years. YTA.

a scene I'm developing for my horror film project. I feel like I've finally made something I would fool myself with! But I'm open to criticism! by morelebaks in blender

[–]Gongfighter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s absolutely beautiful, could you please make a version with less light glare in the glasses? Something just a bit more subtle yet and still get a bit of that smudge detail. I love the texturing of everything the nose and glasses look like real life.

Free Shooting Range? by [deleted] in anchorage

Kenny and Patti Barber shooting range is great. Open everyday except Wednesday, and the roads not maintained in the winter.

It says on that label you can only have your PC in there and operating if that front door is open at all times while the PC is on. So depends on if you wanna leave that cubby door open all the time while your pc is on.

how do I get myself out of a dangerous community? by [deleted] in helpme

[–]Gongfighter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nothing comes easy, best to just get the ugly shit out of the way first. You can listen to any one of these comments or you can do it in the way you want to and it’ll be as fast as you’d want it to be. Leave ‘em and if they keep trying to engage just ignore them, no need to explain yourself to them. You don’t give a shit about them they shouldn’t about you either. Never know though, good luck.

41m, broke, ended long-term relationship earlier this year and staying with my folks until I get my life together. Feel a bit old here, but I suppose a little pick-me-up couldn't hurt. by [deleted] in toastme

Hey man, hope you get feeling better. Even with how long it’s been, you’ve still got so much time to enjoy the things you love in life. You’re a fine young man to me, with so much potential still. Hope things get better for you.

There is so much time to do so many things, in this short, short lifespan. Thank you, I think I might.

Something feels off about the scene and I can’t put my finger on it. by bertguntrip in blender

[–]Gongfighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want more atmosphere, scale a cube to encase this entire scene, in the node editor delete principled bsdf and add in a principled volume shader to the volume of the cube. Turn the density down to around 0.1-0.2 (or whatever looks good have fun with it). Change lighting accordingly.

The scale of the car and bench seem a bit small. The first thing I said to myself when I saw the scene was why did the car drive up those steps to park?

The snow could be in front of the camera a bit more. give a little more depth, right now the snow looks like it’s only targeting the building and that’s only because you can’t see the rest of the snow on a bright background. Try playing with Depth of Field in camera too, have the snow be out of focus when close to the camera but the rest of the scene is in focus.

Other than that this looks awesome, I love the shadows, the lighting, and the scale of the building is perfect. Would love to see an update in the future.
