I do wonder what John_Dow's experience with unions was. Instead of the crazy comments, he could have simply elaborated on his experience. An old housemate of mine worked in QA and spoke very negatively about unions since his late father who was an engineer had lost his income and then his job because of union strikes. But…
Its kinda the reason why atleast in AAA studios at the moment I've learned from colleagues that AI's primary use has been moodboards and to an extent generative fill. So far there isn't a push to AI based texturing or modelling though studios are looking to develop inhouse solutions to automate many of these processes and…
I keep seeing Ai 3D tools popping up but this one caught my attention, full PBR work flow, janky but definitely more refinded then the last time I looked. https://app.meshy.ai/workspace/text-to-3d https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49jT2JutYXs
Yay gaslighting! (Also saying "this art was created by humans" is kinda gross. >If it had been created by humans< you'd really thing they'd credit the artist or team that worked on it.)
Yes I read the linked article where James Cameron goes into the design of the Navi and says, "the more alien we make them in the design phase, we just kept asking ourselves — basically, the crude version is: "Well, would you wanna do it?" And our all-male crew of artists would basically say, "Nope, take the gills out." It…
@NikhilR did your read those articles or just the headlines? first article looks and reads like clickbait, so i went to the link it cited as being the source for a concept artist claiming that director was a weirdo about the characters. ctrl+f search doesnt bring up the directors name or the term director in the article. I…
I checked out their website and it seems the only thing the AI does is generate scripts and maybe the voices? Which others have pointed out, are not great, the comedian youtube video could be funny, but it is so completely flat. There is no emphasis on anything, it's a step above being monotonously and evenly told. The…
I've seen controversies in American voice acting a few times where characters who were PoC were voiced by white people. In recent years, there's been efforts to replace those VAs with people matching the ethnicity of their characters, or at least closer than some random white person. That's not something I really agree…
About the SBI curator, I mentioned it since even that group seems to be against the current AAA approach, of course there's that whole DEI conspiracy which is their primary motivation but they too want to play games that are fun and don't break the bank. I liked the idea of a large AAA company promoting smaller more…
