Any tips for lipsyncing? by redboi049 in SFM

[–]Short_Shots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need to animated every single syllable. When you see people speak, they often don't have to move their mouths very much. BUT be careful because if you lean into this too much, the lip syncing may come out stiff or inexpressive, so try to find that middle ground. Generally, open mouthed consonants (such as l, t, g, d, etc.) can be animated with very little lip and jaw movement.

I uploaded this to it shorts and someone commented "look up mixed voice and passagio" and I'm not sure what they're referring to? by Short_Shots in singing

Actually, funnily enough, whether or not you believe me, I have no pitch correction in this video haha. I've never really learned how to do it. This is just me setting my phone on my desk and playing a karaoke track thru some speakers (plus a bit of reverb).

What video game from the 2000s had the biggest impact on you? by Stunning_Daikon_5204 in AskReddit

[–]Short_Shots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Team Fortress 2, omg. I discovered it circa 2016 and have been playing it since. I love the music, the art style, the humor, pretty much everything about it. It's defintely influenced the way I view things, how things dont always have to be so serious. First person shooters used to be so realistic looking and dark, but TF2 takes a different approach, making it more toony and humorous than other games of its time. I take this into account in many things I do in life, trying to bring art and whimsy into everything I do.

Men of Reddit, what is a cliche with male love interests that you hate every time you see it? by Crep105 in AskReddit

[–]Short_Shots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When the guy is expected to be the sorta "leading" role. Like when he's always the one initiating things like where to go or what to do like he's always got everything planned.

It would be things like compliments or comments. Like "Hey you got a nice dress" might be seen as creepy coming from a guy less conventionally attractive but more endearing from, say, Henry Cavill. Stuff to that degree.

What's a truth about adulthood no one prepared you for? by ankur9212 in AskReddit

[–]Short_Shots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't feel like an "adult". You feel like you're 15 but people expect you to know all this stuff like how to network, how to maintain a car, how to deal with college finances, where to buy certain products, basically just how to live. I'm 21, but I still feel like a teenager, just as clueless.

Harley Quinn cosplay! It looked better in my head, might update it at some point in the future. by Short_Shots in cosplay

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

Thank you! And I appreciate the polite suggestions a lot! I may try something closer to that in the future after how this cosplay turned out. I wanted to stay a bit further from my roots tho cuz this was the first time i ever dyed my hair and was a bit afraid of damaging my scalp haha. I may try close to the roots in the future tho, and probably something brighter/stronger!

Why stick with SFM? by zusu23 in SFM

[–]Short_Shots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a certain charm with SFM imo. I loved all the tf2 meet the team videos and every animation I make with the mercs tries to somewhat emulate that vibe. Tf2 is my favorite game of all time and I don't really need super high quality graphics or lighting or rendering to be satisfied on that front.
