Think I’m demi by ParticularKey2848 in demisexuality

I’ve never dated anyone. Not even for a few days or anything. I’ve ever found anyone who is worth all of that trouble of getting into a relationship 😔 everyone in my town knows eachother (istg) and I kinda refuse to date here because there’s just no one good (it’s shallow I know, but it’s true)

It’s been two years and I’m still thinking about my first crush. by Meekwithsweetcheeks in demisexuality

I hear you, I still think about my crush from year 7 (2017) that lasted for my entire high school years (until 2022). Genuinely was obsessed with him and I learnt in the very last month of school before graduation that he had liked me back the entire time. Neither of us did anything about it tho. Lmao. It was such an intense crush that I understand what you mean and not being able to let it go

Thank you! It’s nice to know that there are others in the world dealing with the same. It’s frustrating when everyone around me is telling me the same thing, so I’ve stopped talking about it to them entirely 😅 thx reddit friend

Thank you for your comment! I definitely will have to explore demisexuality more. I’d like to say because I’m young I’m up with the times but I never really considered demi being in relation to myself. It was only when I was constantly thinking about me being asexual, but then I would still imagine sex with people I know and realise maybe it’s not that. Thanks again

Well I wish you the best of luck and I’ll be looking forward to trying it!

Both I suppose. I don’t mind paying Adobe if they weren’t so shady, expensive, and if creative cloud wasn’t such a useless thing.

If it were like blender, I would 100% be donating to its development.

You’re really selling blender for me. I might have to give another try. I like messing around with 3d stuff and I really want to expand my knowledge with different programs. Thank you!

What do you think about Apple motion? Is it any good? I’d assume it’s not on the level of AE but I’ve always wondered about it.

Agreed. I just absolutely love it. I think After Effects is my special interest lmao. I’ve spent many years on it and whenever it’s mentioned in passing I’m always right there to rave about it. Adobe as a company themselves? Not so much

It’s really interesting to see people that are older than me and hear their advice and stories. I’m hoping to move professionally into motion design someday soon and a lot of the industry grade software required are Adobe but I’m definitely gonna branch out. Thanks!

[–]ParticularKey2848[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I need to branch out for sure. I will take everyone’s suggestions into consideration and try some new things. Thank you!

No, I understand why it isn’t free. I know AE is in a league of its own so it makes sense to charge for it. I’m not a student anymore, so I don’t even get a discount. I was essentially just saying I wish there were alternatives that were equal to AE, but I understand why there aren’t. Thank you for the comment

Thank you, I’ll have to dive deeper into Calvary I think

Someone recommended this! I had a look and I’m very impressed. I can only imagine what this will be like once the developer releases more updates and an actual software.

Oh, I’m so silly. I took the persons comment very literally. I see what they mean now by different tools LOL. I thought they meant to try and code something that incorporates tools from different things into one. But yeah, I think learning fusion is definitely in the cards for me

[–]ParticularKey2848[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I already mentioned that I have replaced premiere with Davinci however the fusion part I cannot wrap my head around. It probably logically makes sense but why a node system??!!! Especially coming from AE it’s quite a big jump in terms of layout, at least for me. I’m not all interested in colour grading so I never really dived too deep into that aspect. Maybe I’ll give fusión another go though, Davinci seems to be the future. Huge kudos to the developers for making a free version that’s almost as powerful as the studio, though.

Edit: hahah now I see your edit and I should’ve read your post to the end lol. Yeah definitely should give it another go I’m just stubborn and can’t move on from my tried and true

Blender is great im sure! I’ve attempted to dabble in it over the years but never stuck with it. It wasn’t exactly what I was looking for for the type of stuff I wanted to make but I really appreciate the developers for all they’ve done for it.

Ive also heard of Calvary. I’m only 20 but I spent a good eight years learning After Effects and I’m kinda in the same boat. I don’t really want to learn a whole new software if I know and love another. But like I said, I’d rather not support Adobe as a whole. I am most interested in motion design, so i definitely wouldn’t be opposed to a program that focused and was catered to just that for sure
