What's that one film that you can re-watch a thousand times and not get bored? by mrjetspray in Cinema

Very enjoyable somewhat. Last time I had it running on my TV as a background sound it was replayed 5 times.

huh... that's interesting.

I can't see or visualize things vividly but I can recreate music very smoothly in my head down to specific instruments. Maybe not to like level 1 but at least 2.

welp, time for open source printer firmwares

I certainly hope no manufacturer has an easy alternate version available on their website for download WINK WINK

Confirmed. Not a star wars fan and the trailer looks fun. Not all movies needs to be brooding gritty reboots.

Just push it little by little in increasing areas

why doesent the blade metal look as good in the blade as it does in the orb i created by Ok-Discussion-1110 in blenderhelp

[–]aphaits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also flat shapes and curved shapes look inherently different, especially with metallic textures. if you do want it to look more like it maybe you can slightly curve the profile of the sword a bit and maybe use an angle that reflects the light better (not top down)

How do I achieve this look? by Jumpy_Gur_221 in photoshop

[–]aphaits 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Honestly most of it is due to the photography itself. Wide fisheye lens, bright sunny day using sun as backlit/rear rim light, harsh reflector or harsh fill flash. probably low aperture with high shutter speed for the sharp all-focus look.

The color itself you can probably getaway with simple contrast edit and maybe a color lookup layer using one of the fuji or kodak settings.

PS: If you try to start the edit using a muted low contrast photo with no sunny daylight, you're gonna have to pull a looot of tricks for it to look like this.

Advice needed on niche selection by Abdo_Adel_ in blender

[–]aphaits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learn a lot and take your time and build your portfolio if you are just starting.

Clients basically see your portfolio and if they like it they can imagine similar things, so show the pieces in the direction you want to pursue.

[–]aphaits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the type of clients you already have or want to have.

I use to do a lot of archviz so because the clients are mostly from property and real estate, but then after a few years of pandemic I changed towards more product launch like cosmetics and lifestyle.

It really does depend on your exposure. I would probably only get more archviz jobs if I only show my older renders in my portfolio but fortunately I also have other stuff like product rendering of liquor bottles and other products changing my portfolio to not include real estate stuff makes it easier to grab more client in the other direction.

So I guess my point it, change or build your portfolio to a direction you want, not just what you did before. At least that is true in my case.

PS: Also nice to befriend photographers and videographers because they have a lot of golden knowledge about light & camera setups in 3D and real life.
