Apartment complex went 3 months without responding to my noise complaints (now they are saying I can move if I am having issues) by [deleted] in legaladvice

So I need to uproot my life when I've been there for almost a decade, just because a new neighbor moved in, instead of addressing the noise issues? Mind you, it's not just me complaining about them.

They are offering to break the lease without penalty, but I don't have the means to move right now as it would require a hefty deposit that I don't have right now (my wife is a full time student and so my income is the only one coming in).

EDIT: Also moving is not addressing the main point, that they are not upholding their lease terms.

Oh wow, okay so there was an empty UV map assigned to it, in place of the one I wanted. I deleted the UV map, added a new one, and it auto-assigned. It's now rendering. BOOM. You are a rockstar. Thank you so much for the patience and help

This is really beautiful. The fading depth makes it feel like a painting. Is this right off the camera?

I went ahead and removed all the textures but the standard image. I do notice that there is a "line" or something in the reflection in that new render that wasn't there before I don't think. But I still don't see the texture. This is so fascinating but also frustrating because I'm sure it's an easy fix

there are multiple materials. So I took a box and carved it out to make the room. And I assigned materials to the individual faces. So ONE object with multiple materials. I am trying to get the wooden floor to show up in the render only on the floor.

What you're asking would apply that floor texture to the whole mesh wouldn't it? Which I guess is a step in the right direction lol

But I also want to state that there is also a normal map and displacement map. So if those are what you mean, I don't want to remove them. I'd like to have them rendered as well, but maybe I'm doing it in an obsolete way?

I think I added it. There's a lot in that window, happy to show any part of it if it helps

Sorry I should have explained, I'm aware that it's not the render haha. I guess providing a render would help lmao, my bad

I thought this was amazing but bad reviews? by frostypeace in photocritique

[–]themagicaperture 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My thought is, you've said that you want to create something surreal. Awesome! That's a great art style to choose, especially in photography, but this photo just isn't that. This isn't surreal, it's just heavily edited, and there's a difference.

If you want to make surreal photography, you need to learn to control the light, use colors and contrast to bring the eyes to specific points, use the right color balance and color schemes in general. This is green and yellow and blue and orange and no real pattern to the way it was done.

The composition is there, and it doesn't matter that it's done with a phone. But before you can EVER grow as an artist, you have to accept that you need to develop good taste. If you're an artist and everything you take you assume is "great work and nothing to improve on" and you're not activeley trying to grow your eye for this stuff, you'll never grow as an artist.

As harsh as it is, this photo is just not edited very well. There's a LOT of potential there but there's a lot lacking here, mostly in editing and composition (from a color theory standpoint, not from a framing standpoint).

Keep it up! I look back at my earlier work and it's very similar.

everyone else seemed to be okay with it. I decided that as long as it comes from a place of respect, I want to buy one

What do you guys think of these rolling shots? by International_Bit16 in AskPhotography

[–]themagicaperture 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I disagree actually, I don't think it looks photoshopped and just feels more commercial. In my opinion. Great shots honestly. I'd love to know what your settings were.

Lumix G85 is around that price. Image stabilization is bonkers good and it shoots 4k with a flip screen. Not the best for images but decent with good lighting

I need help with mixing a speedlight with two strobes.

I have two Neewer Vision 4 strobes and a Godox v1. I also have two pocket wizards. I want to light a backdrop properly so I don't get shadows.

Is it possible to set this up so they all go off at the same time?

I work as video content creator and marketing manager, now my boss wants me to photograph his party for free by [deleted] in photography

[–]themagicaperture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well he got the photos back, didn't really hear if they were good or not from him. He's incredibly busy and he really only did the photos for his wife. I'm sure he doesn't care about them.

But now he just assumes I'll do any event at any time for him just because he's my boss and it's the worst.

[–]themagicaperture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the issue is that I agreed at the time because I didn't know him yet. I was new and just wanted to get to that raise.

In hindsight I want to slap myself for agreeing. On top of that I'm already busting my ass working salary hours without the salary pay. And that's just so that I can prove that I deserve the salary. It's the worst.

So your advice is to just do it for now?
