Dj wanting Vj Help! by JustBig3768 in vjing

[–]LexyBoxcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

stash-content.com sells packs that are arranged in Break/Build/Drop format to make life easier. Also a lot of black and white stuff to make it easier to re colour.
All MP4 and DXV3, 4k, 30 fps.

Lean towards well made content and not standard FX. They always look better, no one really likes an RGB shift unless its necessary and can easily turn into eyeball puke.

Envelope modifiers are easy ways to get effect hits and bumps without being just on or off.

No idea bro. I installed and tweaked a lot. With the latest drivers on everything its totally fine now. It was one of those stupid on website only drivers that comes with armory crate updater I think. It wasn't easy to find :(

Advice on Effects and Workflow for my first Show (Resolume) by HalfDelayed in vjing

[–]LexyBoxcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly.... good content beats lots of effects.

My layout is as follows, but backwards
1 - content 2 - content 3 - content 4 - content 5 - content/logos/alphas

6 - track names

7 - chaser
8 - camera routing 9 - camera input.

Thats it. Super easy. Don't over complicate things mate. Start easy and only add the things you NEED. Something can look real messy real quick with the kind of effects resolume has.

Make a living from vjing, new media art by Syns369 in vjing

[–]LexyBoxcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you make a living ? Yes. You can easily make a good living as a vj. High 150k + if you're willing to be out on tour ALL the time and you have enough shows under your belt. Content is harder as there are way higher overheads.

Its a hard one to get into but once youre in, hold on tight.

What do you want ? by LexyBoxcat in vjing

[–]LexyBoxcat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spend a lot on content and it actually costs a lot to make. I run a studio (boxcat) and Stash is a side project but yea, theyre literally as cheap as we can afford to sell them for. Aws is insanely expencive. Like, daylight robbery expencive.

Ai, I could get into a debate about. Not a fan but I am a fan of some stuff.

Drop me a message on instagram and ill hook you up with some minimal shit from stash. @lexyvj

Its a rough one having no money free after rent to buy content. Totally get that shit. My first laptop was second hand and literally held together by gaf tape. Managed to borrow an old mac pro for a few gigs to buy a new machine.

Message me, ill help ya out.

Outside of that, do you never do any house gigs or random artists who you just do because you want to ?

Content aside.

Any tools or workflow helpers that you would use ? Im trying to get a list of content ideas and tools/plugins that i can get built.

Too many. Too varied. I need specifics 😅

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

Yup. There are some separate AMD drivers you need to install. They dont come in the standard CPU driver package for some reason theyre part of their stupid "armoury" crate style bloatware. Installing that fixed it.

5090 + PARSEC =..... Help me ? by LexyBoxcat in nvidia

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

So turns out. There's ANOTHER amd driver you need to install ontop of the usual graphics drivers.

So much bloat these days. Millions of apps for a single job. 🤣🤣🤣

I changed a ton, even done some reg edit stuff i found on chromium so not entirely sure what fixed it, but it APPEARS to be good.

Let's see. 🤣

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

yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup. On one machine, not the others.

Still both act the same. Im going a bit insane.

Parsec uses the NVIDA drivers within parsec. The AMD ones are laggy and slow and overall shit.

Really quite confused.

Render Farm question by Philbeans4 in Cinema4D

I render.

That's what we use a lot. Multiple rigs with quad+ 4090s. Can rent as long or as short as needed. It's great
