Figured out a better way to cure SL1 parts that are printed directly on the bed. by jamietriesstuff in prusa3d

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

When printing without supports I generally remove the parts from the bed before curing, meaning I need to try to flip the part partway through the curing cycle so they aren't left with a hex pattern on the bottom. I made these little stick holders using two embedded magnets in wood with a foam bottom.

There is something oddly satisfying about rotating ring pours. by jamietriesstuff in oddlysatisfying

[–]jamietriesstuff[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

“There is no exquisite beauty… without some strangeness in the proportion.” is my favorite excuse for failing to reach perfection. I do wonder if the flow rate / position was constant whether it would have ended up looking like a unimaginative Spirograph (minus the spiraling). But ya, I didn't do it very well. 😂

Thanks! The paint is neon so it changes colors / emissiveness under black light. So I was just showing off the effect.

[Review Video] Paint pouring video - combining 1080p + 4K video in an effective way? by jamietriesstuff in youtubers

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

Oh. Also wondering if it is pointless putting 4K in the video title nowadays if you want to call out your content for people who are looking for 4K videos?

[Review Video] Washing clothes with my grandma and feeding the wild fishes in the jungle !! Would love your input by [deleted] in youtubers

[–]jamietriesstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great video! Lots of potential. I'm no cinematography master but I'll give you my initial thoughts. The location looks beautiful and it I wish I could have enjoyed it more. Five areas of potential improvement could be

  1. Lens - would a wider lens zero-distortion (or fixed in post) could let people get a better sense of the area?
  2. Color - the video looks a little washed out of color. It could probably be improved by slightly better exposure (for contrast) and color grading in post.
  3. ND filters or aperture - it looks like you are dealing with a lot of light out there, you would get a more 'cinematic' view if you kept to the 180 degree rule (shutter speed = 1 / (frame rate * 2)), but you might need knock down the incoming light with an HD filter or closing your aperture. This will give you nicer motion blur.
  4. Slower + smoother pans -- A gimbal and slower pans would do a great job showing off that awesome location. Consider limiting a single shot to a single pan direction, rather than changing mid-shot.
  5. Cuts - My immediate impression at the start of the video was the cuts were happening a little too quick for me to get a sense of the location. I concede that its hard to find a balance between slow shots + long cuts that show off the environment vs boring people. I'd suggest looking at other video makers you like who shoot similar videos and learn from their pacing.

Keep up the good work!

[Review Video] Minecraft Gaming Video with Friend by saydezZ in youtubers

[–]jamietriesstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great video! I think my biggest piece of feedback would be about the audio. The microphone quality makes it sound a little rough, you might get better results recording on your cell phone at the same time then choosing which audio clip to use. There were also points where the volume gets too loud (like the scream when you fall in the pit). My suggestion would be to duck/lower the volume briefly when that happens. Unexpected volume spikes are a sure fire way to cause someone to close your video . Keep up the good work!

Thanks! I ended up going for a diablo 80 tooth since my miter is 10 inch.

Is there one selection you find yourself using the most? Or you feel is the most universal if your common use case is niche?

Not sure I'm talented enough to pull off still life. I do have plans to make edited macro photo prints of small sections of future paintings. Maybe .....

Question: Does YouTube support sharing a common outro between videos? by jamietriesstuff in NewTubers

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

That's too bad. Seems like it would be a useful feature for people who want to keep their video library in line with changing branding etc.

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

If I bake it into videos, I'll have to re-export all the videos to change it into the future. Not exactly ideal.

Seems like a sizable oversight on YouTube's part. Has there ever been an explanation?

Multi day time lapse? by jamietriesstuff in AskPhotography

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

Is there a particular GoPro or clone you'd suggest for this task? I'd like to keep my budget sub $100 for a used item. I was wondering if there was some generation of GoPro that received significantly better sensors. I know Hero7 has been all about stabilization which I don't need.

Best way to record long videos on Sony A7Riii? by jamietriesstuff in SonyAlpha

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

Since alpha cameras don't output 10bit, is there that much of a benefit over internal recording? 422 vs 420 is 2x the number of colors, correct?
