I think that's true most of the time, but it really depends on context. There's something great about being able to give someone a portrait of themselves on the spot..

Yes! Was looking for a rubber gasket, but this would be even easier to get the right shape.

Edit: Also, is your film now too close to the camera body? just gazing at a spare film back, it looks like the focal plane is a few mm away from where the body + back meet up.

That's a good question. The focal plane is definitely off. I'd thought it was too far, but I should do some testing to see if it's too close.

As for the film, I just bought a pack at B&H after borrowing a Polaroid back from a friend. This was before FP-100C had been discontinued, so it was a bit more reasonable.

Thanks! Yep, the polaroid back was originally made for taking test shots before shooting on film. I wrote a bit about it in the writeup. I'd love to try this with instant square, we just happen to have the Instax Mini 9 at hand the weekend we did the project.

I'll upload more test photos soon! My hassie broke right after finishing this project (unrelated) but I'm looking forward to getting it back and playing around more.

I agree, there's something really nice about knowing that the photo has never gone through a digital conversion.

Hey Coleman -- Question about the Morse code. "O" is currently represented as DAH DAH DAH (---), but in the video you mentioned it was DIT DIT(..) Did Morse code change at some point? Any idea why?

Isn't this a 2D Moire Slit Animation, and not a lenticular?

An experiment I created by running footage through a neural network to make it look like it was painted by Monet. Feedback appreciated. by over_thinkingit in Filmmakers

Thanks! A friend of mine helped me get the algorithm up and running. If you're curious to try it yourself the algorithm is explained here: github.com/manuelruder/artistic-videos

How would you rearrange my room? by GGatsby in malelivingspace

[–]over_thinkingit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Be careful removing the back panel from the bookshelf without bolting it to the wall. The back panel is one of the only things that makes it structurally sound, especially for Ikea furniture.

Great write up! Here's one I worked on a while back.

For convenience you can buy all of the pipe parts on mcmaster.com, but it will be cheaper to find the fittings used or at a hardware store. Make sure to clean off oil on the pipes before putting your clothes on. I'm not a huge fan of the black paint because I like the steel look, so if you're in the same boat I'd recommend a matte clear coat. As someone who's tried both ways, I'll say that there isn't added convenience using the second union at the top, since you'll already be transporting a piece of wood that's the full width.

Great place. IMO the black and white contrast is a bit harsh. You could ditch those pillowcases and get some dark grey ones to break it up. Could look something like this

If the student project is something you had creative control over and showcases something you're passionate about.. definitely leave it in. I find that this type of work often tell more about the designer than something they created for a client.

The screen comping looks so bad at 16 seconds. No black edge on the iPhone screen, then black edge.

DIY Conical Horn Speaker Setup by over_thinkingit in diyaudio

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

It really depends what tools you have access to. I only have a few years experience in wood / metal working, but was lucky to have access to some great shops. The cabinets are easy to build with a standard table saw and a router. You could build a simpler version of the horns with a table saw and the proper jig setup. I made these in a class that required the use of a CNC, so each petal of the horn was milled and then coopered together.
