livestream

Oniram

So im watching Virtuosic model right now while playing gears, and thought to myself, wouldnt it be cool if polycount had its own livestream. its really cool to watch people model, and if anyone could just log in and have a go, people could just..i dunno.. watch. i think it would be pretty interesting.

I remember Justin_Meisse did one, was loads of fun!

Dave Rapoza is on right now.

I think we should additionally have a chat room. It would be nice to have a place to ask questions that are small and don't need a thread. Or just to chat.

I started a livestream just for the hell of it a couple weeks ago. I haven't been saving the videos though.

Sounds like an amazing idea, if only so that I can learn experienced work flows :P

polycount stream sounds awesome! Dave Rapozas streams are always awesome, Sam Conelley was streaming yesterday too; and once in a blue moon Wakkawa will stream stuff.

This sounds fun

Virtuosic, your recorded stream was awesome.

Ryan Smith

Thanks Zac, that was kind of a test recording, but as i go on and do it more, it should be more interesting and educational

btw for those who do character, I would recommended to use justin.tv
because they allow nudity,
most of other streaming site like Ustream doesnt allow nudity art or even just sexy clothes.

I'd be down to participate with some sculpting for a stream.

System

It's interesting how you can end up getting paid while streaming too.

I'm not sure how it works on streams besides Justin.tv but when using that i've seen popular streamers type /commercial inbetween games. One popular starcraft 2 streamer makes about $3000 a month afaik, although he gets a few thousand watchers.

ZacD

sc2 players play a commercial about every 10 min between games, though.

More people streaming would be really cool. I'd do it myself too if it doesn't kill my PC.

I think setting it up would be as simple as having a thread with all of the links in the first post. Then people just make a post when they go live.

I think there's a lot of potential for this during competitions where people are working on their models more often and people are closely following the progress.

Loving the idea of a Polycount Livestream so I set up www.livestream.com/polycount I'm not sure what we'll do with it yet though.

As for me, I set up myself over at www.livestream.com/adamsrandoms For the hell of it, I'll broadcast the next little while as I go through my UFC 129 videos/images from Saturday.

there was a Ustream live this evening, its official from
Neverdead's artist he is doing live painting demo for new title called neverdead, in that chat room including konami staff translating english to japanese


the problem was, he drew 3 never dead female character, it still using proper cloth ( well little bit sexy tho)
but his reference is 3 bald shaded ( not rendered) nude 3d image. not even have a nipple.

after 1-2 hours he got Banned
banned violating term of service. lol

again, dont use Ustream guys. especially if u doing character ....

Lame.


I thought about this too. While working on stuff at home I keep thinking that it would be neat to just let people watch me work. Granted I might not be able to flood people with knowledge like other people here can. But it would be cool to just get comments/critiques (or give) while somebody is working. If we were to do that I'd start up a livestream account and just stream everytime I'm working at the computer.

I've caught a few on here...watched virtuosic finishing up the brawl entry..it was very cool to see somebody else's technique and whatnot.
