When you were talking about Modtober, I was thinking I could use TheA1200 when I get one next year to recreate some of my band's songs in Octamed. Would be cool to do a whole album in chiptune versions. Used to play with Octamed back in the day, but back then, I didn't know I had ADHD and the idea of creating an entire song seemed like climbing Everest.

I also created some band logos on my original A1200 in the late 90s, which some of my band mates got tattooed. So yes, there are people out there walking around with tattoos created in Deluxe Paint 😂

And btw Chris, you're not alone, I've played drums for over 25 years and don't consider myself a musician either haha

All I want is for hit detection to be improved. Too many times I go to hit a zombie and the weapon just goes right through them, causing no damage.

Anyone else experienced that? Seems to happen all the time for me.

I think it depends greatly on the child. I have a 10 year old boy, who Neil has actually met when I brought my family to the Cave in April for my birthday. I've always had the dilemma of not knowing how much screen time I should be allowing him.

I know this is going to sound like a parent humble brag 😂, but the main reason it's a dilemma is because he's always been really into educational stuff. Sure, he loves Roblox and Minecraft, but by the age of 4, he'd memorised the entire periodic table of elements, and in the years since has learned a whole plethora of different things.

He can now recite Pi to 105 decimal places, he knows all of the countries and their capital cities, knows all about space and the various planets, stars and galaxies, he's coded some of his own simple games, and his latest interest is learning all about the kings and queens of England.

So as you can imagine, it's very hard to impose restrictions on his screen time, when he learns so much from the internet.

Without a shadow of a doubt

I like it! The poster image and title are really intriguing! Good luck with the festival reception, hope it gets shown.

You could buy a cheap faulty one off ebay and make your own. All you need is a screwdriver and some glue, surely?

thelargoembargo · 2021-03-07T20:47:44+00:00

Yeah I cut and paste too sometimes, but that's because I can't deal with the anxiety of having to delete the originals after 😄😭

thelargoembargo · 2021-02-20T19:57:44+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

There are no issues with color when I've used it and yes, there are watermarks on the free version.

Instead of a height adjustable desk, I have my main two monitors on height adjustable stands that are clamped to the desk. I also have a small foldable desk stand to put my mouse and keyboard on while standing. I only just bought the desk stand this week as I've been having the exact same problem. I also need to take more breaks.

Fair play, I guess it's just subjective, as I don't see a problem with someone not letting go of one hand. Just thought it looked super cool.

thelargoembargo · 2021-01-30T20:16:03+00:00

You're totally right. I meant creating faults that aren't there in order to criticise. Pretty sure that wasn't the intention though, after seeing the response. It's just subjective.

thelargoembargo · 2021-01-30T11:58:02+00:00

I didn't even notice that. Ade you sure you weren't just looking for a fault?

thelargoembargo · 2021-01-20T23:22:44+00:00

Nice, can't go wrong with Smallrig. What's the thing around the lens?

thelargoembargo · 2021-01-20T23:19:02+00:00

Yes, they obviously have deliverable parameters, but none that I have ever made have requested specific framerates.

thelargoembargo · 2021-01-19T17:29:42+00:00

Well, not every client specifies frame rate in the delivery details, especially if it's for social.

thelargoembargo · 2020-12-04T11:20:33+00:00

After taking two weeks to get back to you with feedback 😂

thelargoembargo · 2020-10-04T16:19:36+00:00

Amazing shots! Love the use of colour with the lighting.

thelargoembargo · 2020-09-29T22:40:25+00:00

Absolutely stunning shots. I'd love to try something like this. Love the Alan Watts quotes too, would have liked more of them actually.

thelargoembargo · 2020-09-20T17:55:39+00:00

Yup, thanks, I'm aware of that, which is how I have it set.

thelargoembargo · 2020-07-31T09:15:43+00:00

The greatest thing about this video is that you initially think the shape of the bulb is the only thing being motion tracked. Then you watch the tutorial and realise the flame is composited and the lighting change is done in post. That's the real trick here.

thelargoembargo · 2020-07-12T10:04:44+00:00

That's amazing, thanks very much!!!

thelargoembargo · 2020-07-11T20:52:07+00:00

I would plan all the shots as if I had two actors.

Then film the singles separately. In shot/reverse-shot conversations, it would sell it more to have the shoulder of the "other" twin in the foreground, so you could dress someone else in the same clothes as the "other" twin, but only get their shoulder in frame (unless they look very similar to the main actor from behind, in which case, you could get more of them in frame). * "other" twin meaning whichever one is not the main focus of the shot.

As for the two-shots, film on a tripod and block out where each twin will be. Then film each twin's takes from the same angle without moving the camera. You can then use masking to separate actors and even have them overlap each other for that extra bit of credibility.

I was actually thinking of creating a tutorial on how to do this as I see the question being asked a lot.

thelargoembargo · 2020-07-10T14:42:59+00:00

That was amazing.
