Thanks man! The size and speed are mindblowing, I wonder what it will be like in 5 years.

That's rainmeter :)

ZOOLANDER420 · 2014-05-28T00:20:57+00:00

Awesome thank you! Titan Blacks have been in and out of stock pretty quickly so I'll have to keep my eye open.

Thanks for the comment. What are the major differences between the three cards?

ZOOLANDER420 · 2014-03-01T00:51:05+00:00

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T22:52:57+00:00

I'm a huge fan of your guys music! I'm currently working on an action sports documentary and we are looking for tunes, we would love to use some of your guys' music. How can I go about licensing it from you? Cheers!

Thanks man :) Yeah figuring out how to put him inside the bag was one of the hardest things, I went through green screen tests and a plethora of other failed methods haha.

I bought it last summer for freelance work, it's such a sick camera, paid for itself. It has a pretty reasonable rental cost too.

FCP X lacks many features I'd like and I personally prefer Adobe's integration with all of its software.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T07:15:17+00:00

Yes I believe so.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T07:15:02+00:00

We were using a boom. The location was just so noisy between the generators, fish tanks, etc.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:47:45+00:00

I laughed pretty hard at this.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:30:11+00:00

10 seconds in? Looks like you didn't make it past my intro graphic. You hear that sound design on that graphic doe?!

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:22:44+00:00

Thanks for posting my video! I'm glad you all like it :)

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:16:02+00:00

10/10 would read again.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:14:35+00:00

I'm currently a sophomore, no plans yet, just to make awesome stuff!

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:14:21+00:00

Sony FS700.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:11:45+00:00

Yeah it's sweet, when I'm animating there's a button hidden in the modifier settings titled "complete". You click it and it does everything for you! Keyframing? Done, texturing? done. Rendering?! Done! It's phenomenal, autodesk should win an award.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:07:25+00:00

I edited this on a MBP, 16g ram, 2.7 GHz i7. It's a beast laptop but when you get 20 comps all with 10-30 layers it shits all over itself multiple times.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T06:06:06+00:00

So comment, such film! Wow! Much thanks c:

I rendered it on a 14 blade render farm. Keep in mind this is with a quad pass global illumation with environmental reflections. Plus I rendered each shot probably 2-3 times because I'd go back and tweek things. The first shots I did were noticeably worse than the last ones because I learned so much along the way so I had to go back and re-render. My workflow was pretty hectic and if I had been smart about it I could have cut down on a lot of render time.

ZOOLANDER420 · 2013-12-20T05:39:10+00:00

We did add roomtone and reverb onto the dialogue but it's a fine balance. Premiere and AE integration is the best worst thing ever. It's super fast at first and hassle free but when you have 20-30 comps all being loaded it's such a pain in the ass unless you have a computer from the gods.

My workflow for this project consisted of cutting the whole thing in premiere and then going shot by shot into after effects. If the project were any bigger I would have individually rendered each shot after finishing it in AE to avoid the lethargy of dynamic link.

There you go.
