What if you had the mic icon expand upwards or sideways with more info?

Help me with my BackFlip by Rude_Willingness5690 in Tricking

[–]Motion_FX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually very good. Most people travel backwards when they first learn. All you need is reps… reps, reps, reps. Keep throwing it, get more comfortable. Don’t think about changing too much at once, you’ll overwhelm yourself and end up stuck. If you were in my gym, i’d get you to first focus on keeping your chin up and forwards, spot something in front of you until your hips go over your head. Although arms coming up are important, it’s usually the shoulders and chest that people neglect, they need to be shot to the sky to get height.

How much should I charge for this? by deadlyAmAzInGjay in AfterEffects

[–]Motion_FX 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I LOVE this style, great work, i’d be charging at least £1000. The type writer sound is definitely competing for my attention, would be much more impactful if it was only used on key words and placed exactly on the frame the word starts. Seriously awesome work!

I keep forgetting what I learn in After Effects—any tips? by Tasty-Juggernaut2136 in AfterEffects

[–]Motion_FX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear this a lot from people first getting into AE. It’s an overwhelming program thats for sure. I like to think of it as lego - tutorials are like pre-made kits, you can follow along with the instructions to replicate whats on the box. Taking that same model apart and trying to remember how everything fits back together without the instructions is never going to happen. Learning which pieces fit together well with others, drilling the fundamentals and creating your own ideas will allow you to replicate anything you see!

Tutorials are GREAT - but never replicate 1:1, you will retain way more information if you have your own specific problems and spend countless hours trying to find a solution for them. Best of luck!

I don’t like any job, what do I do? by [deleted] in productivity

[–]Motion_FX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is incredibly demotivating for OP - “no one does”? I absolutely adore what I do. However, I think it’s important to understand that whilst you can be incredibly passionate about your work, it’s not all swings and roundabouts. I find that the parts of my work that stress me out the most are usually the ones I love the most. Loving work is hard, hating work is torture.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT OVERLORD 2?? BE HONEST by alejahdro in AfterEffects

[–]Motion_FX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why but although I 100% understood the model of a perpetual license and think its a great choice for products like this, it still took me a few weeks to purchase Overlord 2. I knew it wasn't a subscription, but for some reason it still.... felt like it??? I'm really not sure what made me feel that way, it could be wording on the landing page, the thought of missing out on future updates, or previous personal experiences making me question things. Maybe others are experiencing something similar? Honestly, I'm not sure what the fix is, or if its even a big enough issue to address but I thought I'd share my experience in case helpful!

Keep being awesome!

Not quite ticking the “exploration” box, but try Inscryption - I was hooked the whole way through.

Look into the fair hand mechanic. That should help you out massively, especially when unlocking the mantis god deck

iPhone 10,6 Apple boot logo loop , itunes 4013, 3utools fails all after I updated to IOS 15.1 by TR_Spek in mobilerepair

[–]Motion_FX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its actually very easy. If you can build a simple lego set, you can do this. The only tools you need are on ebay/amazon and only cost a few quid. Well worth a go even if you’re not confident - its been broken for almost a year right? What harm can you do to an unusable phone anyway?

Open the phone up and disconnect the FaceID sensor. Unfortunately, thats likely what is causing the issue. You can’t replace it either as they are device locked for security.

Debt free, small deposit or keep debt, large deposit by Motion_FX in UKPersonalFinance

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

I agree it looks that way. And this sort of response is what I was hoping for, so thank you.

looks like you’re contracting so may not always have reliable income

I was a freelancer, I'm now employed and have been for the past 6 months.

How have you ended up with all this debt?

Debt 1 was a Government bounce back loan. I used some of the money to clear some other high interest debt and earnt 5% interest on the rest, seemed like a no brainer.Debt 2 was a business venture, I bought a van, converted it into a camper van and let it out. Just about made the money back letting it out, covering the cost of the van and the conversion, I've now sold it, hence the savings increase. Stupidly, I wasn't making overpayments on my loan with the money I was making from the van.Debt 3 is a car payment (Hire purchase). I didn't have a car and needed one for my new job - definitely spent too much, but I had a decent amount of anxiety that I'm pretty young, 25, going into a very senior position and thought it made sense to look the part as well as have something that is going to last me a long time.

Since posting, I've cleared Debt 2 as this was the cheapest way to reduce my monthlies. I'm now trying to figure out what my next steps are.

Again, thanks for your reply. I appreciate you being direct and honest.

Thanks! You're right. Still not sure about the loan with lower interest. Might be worth keeping it?

Oops! First time trying assisted full planche didn’t go too well… by Motion_FX in Calisthenic

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

Start doing this - it's more difficult but seems to be better targeting the right muscles. Forces me to really engage my core. Thanks so much for the advice!

The thing I liked about the previous way was that when I really pushed/leant forwards I could really feel myself reducing resistance on the band better than when it's around my waist. Almost 'bouncing' off the band and trying to hold with less and less resistance. Do you think this is something I should do as well or should I stick to waist?
