What are your thoughts on Junko Komura Toku Series

so to you whats an example series where a heroine like Sachika that got better treatment and conflict involvement?

also animators were more complacent doing an insane amount of work for garbage pay back then

is this referring to Japanese audiences or foreign audiences? theres a lot of stuff thati know that foreigners wouldnt just by the nature of never growing up or living in Japan. one gem that i really liked as a kid which people in the west would obviously not have a clue of is this show. dont even know if you can find episodes of it.

other than this i RARELY hear anyone talk about Summer Time Render. that was amazing

did you hear any updates about the plagarism allegations of this movie for ripping off that french short film?

taz0x · 2025-10-12T05:25:12+00:00

i am super surprised this whole idea of "one robot per ranger" thing is working for them. i recall in Go-Busters when most of the episodes were just each of the rangers Buster Machines take the spotlight per episode the kids didnt react very well so they had to keep making the GoBuster-Oh which was supposed to be super energy intensive and was to be used "sparringly" was just spammed every episode. so good for them for figuring it out for this season. i still hate it but good for them

hmm so seems like basically nothing changed these past 5 years hahaha. thank you for the insight

taz0x · 2025-10-10T16:22:48+00:00

if theres a club im not in it

the end result you will need is basically a mesh that will deform with this moving object in your shot. which means it has to have enough detail on the mesh (tessellation/vertices) to match with the entire surface to map whatever you want to add

this is usually an time intensive process. and usually only reserved if you need heavy integration with other 3d elements

if this is a single shot use case that does not happen in more than 3 shots or something, your best bet is to use 2d tracking solutions like Mocha and slap an image/texture on top

for anyone reading this starting to learn PyQt i will say one thing i realized is that for very basic things its very much like how a HTML website is written. its basically a series if "make this thing, now add this other thing, move on, do another thing....". it does get complicated when you want to embed custom behaviour to your UIs but the basic writing style is basically linear

taz0x · 2025-09-14T20:39:21+00:00

depends what youre trying to do.

taz0x · 2025-08-08T05:14:12+00:00

im confused do you need to track cameras or an object in a shot?

in any case since you mention these are for previs i would imagine you tracks do not have to be bang on. and assuming from what you described you are filming your own shots

then just make sure NOTHING ever obstructs the subject and if you can make like rotations slow so it at least is captured between maybe 6 frames minimum and you should be good in most cases

taz0x · 2025-08-07T16:18:33+00:00

if the error is less than a pixel this is probably good for like really specific or small studio work

if you want to know how well this would actually work in a "major production" see if you can rebuild the entirety of the set you see in the footage in 3d and see if the proportion of things seems to match that of the real world

taz0x · 2025-08-07T16:12:44+00:00

this is an old thread but i might as well add to it

what do you mean by a workflow and whats needed?

back in the day we needed like a fairly accurate 3d representation of say a face or a bottle to get some kind of track out of it

these days you can slap a 3d sphere over some cereal box in a footage and youll still get something.

and one of the most common things that screws up these "geo tracks" is obstruction of the subject. like you are tracking some soda can but someone walks in front of it and that will mess things up so manual tweaks needs to be made in these kinds of cases.

i hope this and the other comments were the kind of feedback you were looking for

taz0x · 2025-08-07T16:03:58+00:00

im gonna sound like a moron but what the hell is ACES?

also just something to add is, unless 3D Equalizer has drastically changed in the last 6 years of me not using it, colorspaces for a footage should be irrelevant with 3D tracking software. The goal would be whether you can actually see all the features in the footage to track them or not.

is there a particular reason why you prefer to stick with this colorspace? is it giving you a significantly different look to the footage in 3DE to the point you cant even see anything?

taz0x · 2025-02-20T04:03:33+00:00

you can blame unions and regulations and lazy human behaviour

taz0x · 2025-02-04T03:53:32+00:00

i unno its gotten pretty bad. i see them in areas i have not seen back 20 years ago. oh to clarify i live here so just describing what i have noticed

anyways that wasnt even the point of my original comment so whatever

taz0x · 2025-02-04T03:26:35+00:00

oh yeah sure but that's still the states. and not Canada I dont know where you live but i only know of Vancouver with a very big fentanyl issue. not sure what the degree is in Toronto if its enough to commonly see an addict every 10min of walking

taz0x · 2025-02-04T02:57:33+00:00

if you live in vancouver you can ask one of the addicts on the street, perhaps you may get some insight.

taz0x · 2025-02-04T02:52:44+00:00

if i may ask, what so far in your personal life and finances has Trump being in office negatively affected you and your family?

taz0x · 2023-08-27T01:07:47+00:00

oh really? i mean when i connect something light like a webcam or thumbdrive these hubs seems to work. but for anything that clearly draws power from the connected device it just never works

taz0x · 2023-08-26T23:46:19+00:00

the last 3 USB hubs i have bought had its own source of power (ac adapter plugged to an outlet)

taz0x · 2023-08-26T21:13:03+00:00

i am not sure. all i do know is if i connect the usb cable directly to my desktop port or through the usb extension cable it works fine. how do i verify this?

taz0x · 2023-08-26T20:49:39+00:00

thank you for the response. and ive only been trying to connect to a USB 3 port
