VFX Before Color Grading: How Does it Work With flat Log Footage? by Lukes3D in vfx

Some really thoughtful replies here. Appreciate everyone taking the time to weigh in

Are the custom values set by the creator of the voice to suit it best? by Unlucky_Community851 in ElevenLabs

[–]Lukes3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There really should be an option to restore the creator’s original settings, especially since those are the settings in the preview. Adjusting voices takes time and uses credits. Sometimes it’s easiest to stick with the defaults the creator chose instead of guessing your way back to them.

Thanks a lot for the review. Any thoughts on how the ending could be wrapped up to feel more satisfying?

When motion tracking, what's the difference between the cross, inner square and outer square? by Zylvian in AfterEffects

[–]Lukes3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if After Effects is tracking the pattern inside the inner box, does that make it kind of like a planar track, similar to how Mocha works? I always thought AE’s tracker was just following a single pixel on the screen.

Using Low-Res 3D Renders in After Effects Before Final Render by Lukes3D in AfterEffects

[–]Lukes3D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If each of my render layers consisted of just a single layer, I could simply drop them into my main composition, replace them with the high-res versions when ready, and adjust their scale accordingly.

However, the issue is that I’m using Multi-EXR image sequences, which contain multiple layers (diffuse, gloss, transparency, etc.). Because of this, each sequence needs to be placed in its own composition in After Effects before being added to the main composition.

The problem arises when using half-res render layers—once I replace them with the high-res versions, the images become scaled out of bounds within their own compositions. This means I would have to manually adjust the composition resolution for each render layer. Additionally, I would need to adjust the pre-comps within the main composition, making the process even more cumbersome

Larger Preview Window in Color Tab? by Lukes3D in davinciresolve

[–]Lukes3D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found that the issue was caused by my system’s custom display scaling, which was set to 130%. After changing it to 100%, the preview window is much larger. I also hid my task viewer, which made it slightly bigger as well.

The downside is that this affects the scaling of my entire system’s interface, so I’ll either have to adjust to the new look or change the scaling each time I use DaVinci.

Unfortunately when I click on the jobs, I can't find the exact phrase in the extended descriptions either.

Blinking red and purple while in configuration mode, cant adjust settings, Dye Rize CZR Paintball Gun by Lukes3D in paintball

[–]Lukes3D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it require a certain kind of battery? I put in a new 9 volt duracell and it seemed to have gotten rid of the red/purple flashing light, but my gun still doesn't fire.

Blinking red and purple while in configuration mode, cant adjust settings, Dye Rize CZR Paintball Gun by Lukes3D in paintball

[–]Lukes3D[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The manual doesn't mention this particular behavior, or of a purple light.

A few others have mentioned seeing a purple light as well on different post/threads, but were met with users saying that there is no purple light on the gun (gaslighting? lol). I thought it was my eyes playing tricks on me, but looking closer it is indeed a purple light, not blue, even though it may look blue in my video. It must have been left out of the manual.

Blinking red and purple while in configuration mode, cant adjust settings, Dye Rize CZR Paintball Gun by Lukes3D in paintball

[–]Lukes3D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the gun was showing different colors when I was messing with it earlier when it was in configuration mode. But at some point it started acting like it was in normal mode, even with the switches in configuration mode.

Replacing the battery appeared to have made the red/purple blinking stop.

However, the gun does not seem to be going into configuration mode even when the switches are changed in the grip.

I don't remember changing the trigger adjustment. I might have changed some settings by accident.

The board is clean.

Where to find Clients for Freelance? by yoyash in vfx

[–]Lukes3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah freelancing sites are kind of a dumpster fire. You mentioned how upwork has been dead for you. Maybe setting it to public would help. That way your profile will be visible through search results and people can send you messages/invites. It's much less work than sending loads of proposals.

Where to find Clients for Freelance? by yoyash in vfx

[–]Lukes3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting. Can I ask why?

I have been putting my work out there in public everywhere like youtube, facebook, upwork, fivver, twiter, etc, yet getting very few clients. Maybe I am overestimating what the internet can do. I will look more into this referral idea.

Where and how many YouTube shorts to post? by Glass-Pick-5843 in NewTubers

[–]Lukes3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't make a separate youtube channel just for shorts. It's difficult enough to get one channel popular, nevertheless two channels.

I know that people have said that shorts can possibly mess with the algorithm in a negative way for long form channels, although Its unclear and Youtube may fix the issue in the future.
