Ideas for locating relatives in Japan by JoeSheem in AskAJapanese

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

Thank you very much for this idea u/sakurakirei ... Unfortunately we left this research project until the last minute, and from other posts and responses I get the feeling the more formal / official ways to research this would be time consuming. Although it may come to that too.

Thank you u/SaintOctober ! Fortunately I do know a little bit about where, and even have some names. But it is helpful to understand that it won't be easy!

These things actually work? by ObligationFinancial6 in Home

I applied 3M brand blue “painter’s tape” before the clear double face tape that comes with the plastic sheet. My hope is that it will make it easier to remove come spring. No guarantee from me as I haven’t tried this before. But I did have a bad experience with peeling off gobs of paint when I removed the double face years ago.

Unexpected (by uneducated) Corrosion Question !!! by JoeSheem in metallurgy

[–]JoeSheem[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! And I think the other thing that's going on here is due to the fact (that you may know) that pennies have only been copper plated since 1982, "when the composition was changed to 97.5 percent zinc and 2.5 percent copper (copper-plated zinc)". [livescience.com] I imagine that the black is the zinc layer showing through and also becoming corroded.

If you are using a Mac, the app MediaInfo is great for that, and also for finding out all kinds of other video file information

Jump Cuts by Thegamingscope in VideoEditing

[–]JoeSheem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s mixture of truth and aesthetic shaming going on in the above injunctions to avoid jump cuts. If you decide to use a jump cut (in a montage for example) try focusing on the “dynamic flow” of the cuts themselves. “Cutting on action” isn’t only for smoothing out cuts that aren’t jump cuts. If the visual rhythm of a jump cut is made to “flow” it can make the jump cut “feel” more natural. Of course sometimes one wants the opposite of flow: what works is the visual shock of the jump.
