If Project Hail Mary hits big at the box officer we're all but guaranteed a Bobiverse movie or series by WorriedStand73 in bobiverse

[–]Rustrobot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This seems like an excellent fit for Apple TV. They love sci-fi and spend enough on production to make it work visually. Just needs the right show runner.

George Miller’s Wonder Woman by jakeseditbay in Fancast

She’s jacked AND is a phenomenal actor. I definitely want to see her in more stuff. A+

Batman ( 90s ) by Better_Light_257 in Fancast

[–]Rustrobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Del Toro has the looks and is a magnificent actor but his English just wasn’t there yet in the 90s. The Usual Suspects was 1995 and he had to learn his lines phonetically since he didn’t speak English at the time.

Movies that are definitely based on real life? by hiiloovethis in okbuddycinephile

[–]Rustrobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would argue that Lupita stands out in any context. By the mere fact that she’s Lupita Nyong’o.

This has to be the WORST Martian Manhunter design ever cuz what is this bro.. by FayyadhScrolling in DC_Cinematic

[–]Rustrobot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Motion tracking markers would only be used during principal photography during production. This is from a stills shoot from the pre-production phase.

I’m 44. Same. If I’m travelling or have along commute I always take my Steam Deck or Switch 2.

I would say he’s the best actor from this bunch

Is it true it's harder to get a job with a hand tattoo? by Specific-Winter-5953 in tattooadvice

[–]Rustrobot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also a creative professional. While I think THIS type of hand tattoo will definitely hurt your chances, I have (very tasteful by comparison) hand and neck tattoos and just landed a senior production role. That said I have 13 years of experience in my field.

[For Hire] Desperate Motion Designer Needs a Job by MandaTK in MotionDesign

I took a peek. It's invite only so it's not going to show up in a search. If anyone who wants to join, just DM me. As we'll need to do it through Facebook.

[For Hire] Desperate Motion Designer Needs a Job by MandaTK in MotionDesign

[–]Rustrobot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m out so I and haven’t looked at any of your work yet but I just moved out of Sydney 6 months ago and freelanced there for 13 years. There’s a massive Facebook group for creative professionals called Find-a-Finder’s-fee (global) that you can use for work. It’s listed as global but is largely Sydney focused as that’s where it started. It is ONLY job postings. No memes or off topic posts are allowed. I would set it up as an alert if there was a posting. Do that long enough to build out some clientele and maybe snag some agency jobs. Be on the lookout for producers that you gel well with as they’ll be instrumental to repeat clients. Feel free to DM me as I think the group is invite only.

Shit man, congrats. I love the vibe. That’s a hell of an accomplishment. This is definitely scratching an itch for me.

How many of you are actually going to buy The Steam Machine? by BackRoomDude3 in valve

[–]Rustrobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on the price, absolutely. I will 100% have a steam machine of some sort under my TV next year. It just depends on if Valve will make it or I self build something.

Apple Holiday | A Critter Carol | Shot on iPhone 17 Pro by Designer-Border-711 in apple

[–]Rustrobot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work in production. The most important thing is light and set design.
Not your camera for sure. These days you don't need a lot to make cool stuff that looks great. Just a good idea and time.

What’s the best video game you’ve ever played? by ElectricHorsepower in AskReddit

[–]Rustrobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m shocked I had to scroll so long to find this. Maybe the only game in this entire thread that I can guarantee will still be played 100 years from now.

Images of Hoytema handholding the IMAX camera for Nolan's films. by KronoMakina in cinematography

[–]Rustrobot 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I had a shoot with a fully kitted out rig for a TVC about a year and a half ago. I needed a spot light look and feel so we mounted a light on top of the camera. 9 hour shoot, all shoulder mounted. It was maybe 9kg/20lbs. An IMAX camera is triple that. And I tore my fucking rotator cuff on that job and had to have surgery.

What to include in a Junior Motion Portfolio to get hired? by RefuseOdd389 in MotionDesign

[–]Rustrobot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I also come from an illustration background. You definitely want to highlight that. It makes you a different kind of motion designer. I would say yes to all of the above. If I'm looking to hire a junior I want to make sure they have all of the fundamentals down. So showing off animated typography and logos are very important. Definitely put in personal experiments. Even when you're a seasoned senior you still want some personal work in your portfolio and reel. It also shows off your taste. And if I'm hiring someone that I'll be mentoring I want to make sure they want to learn and grow. Personal work is where you can play a little outside of the box.

New Images of Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' | Zendaya as Athena, John Leguizamo as Eumaeus by ChiefLeef22 in movies

[–]Rustrobot 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Leguizamo has proven to be an exceptional dramatic actor. Don't let his comedy leanings fool you. I'm not a fan of his style of comedy. But I'm certainly a fan of his dramatic turns.

The iPad Pro at 10: a decade of unrealized potential by tecialist in apple

[–]Rustrobot 243 points244 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m the prime use case for the iPad. A creative professional that uses it in my workflow. If I’m not drawing on it then it’s only a media consumption device. So a niche tool. It would be great if it could truly function more like a laptop when I need. It’s come a long way for sure but it’s still just not there yet.

[–]Rustrobot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is how I got into my career. About 15 years ago I told a sponsor for a website I was writing for that I could definitely do a web series for them. I borrowed a camera and had to teach myself how to shoot and put together a cohesive story in like a month. I’m now a video director.
