I actually caved to the pressure of everyone else telling me to go for a "stable job." So now I'm a few months out of college with a bachelor's degree in chemistry, and I'm dreading the next few years of my life. Always go with your gut if it's telling you something's not right for you. I am learning that the hard way,…
I bought a Genius Mousepen - and before anyone goes THATS NOT WACOM - it's good. It uses a triple A battery in the pen :/ but other than that, once you setup the driver config, it's really nice. I got it to practice, I wrote here about how I practice: http://supermortalhuman.com/how-to-use-graphics-tablet I found in…
mhm i think UE4 might be a bit of a too complex beast. you very quickly reach the borders of what you can do with any one tool, and quickly you find yourself researching stuff you have absolutely no idea of, wich might be a bit much for a kid to start with. i would recommend max for learning, but i am clearly biased here…
Hey fdfxd2 that's a good article on washington post but I wouldn't say that article is unbiased, its very hard to find any completely unbiased information on this topic as a lot of it has to do with different experts interpretations of data and the public's own personal convictions and predictions for the future. Its very…
As long as you know the "industry standard" software, it doesn't matter what you use on your own. There are plenty of Modo artist that are proficient in either Max or Maya. It can get you employed or can be used at work... and the nice thing about Modo is depending on the location you can just bring the license along with…
Devin Platt's Phanty time lapse. https://gumroad.com/devinplatts# Mini review (full disclaimer, I'm friends with the dude, so I'm biased to liking it, but regardless I would never recommend something like this simply because of that.) This is devin's first video tutorial. In it he uses a very unusual approach to…
Rendering an interior with a physical renderer(especially unbiased) that has a very weak light source is always going to be a challenge. It will depend on how big the room is and how many light sources there are. The renderer is pure brute-forcing the rays and it could take an eternity to clean up the noise. Material…
Now now dejawolf, I know this board can be a little biased towards contemporary art, but there are loads and loads of great artists, you just need to get out there and see some of it. Pior. I think they're put together by a combination of Gluing and welding. With a handful of things laying around. Though it would be cool…
Ok, so here's the deal: I've removed any and all posts made by John or Mitch, and any that mentioned Activision. Do not PM or IM me asking me why, it won't be mentioned so save your energy. Secondly, it is with regret that I removed those posts. IMO it's a service to every professional out there to hear first-hand…
I only dealt with the web interface once, and that was a rather cumbersome experience. I'm not in the US or EU so I get the feeling the thing was biased towards me ;) The client itself scans your computer and submits not clearly specified data to EA. To me that doesn't make it any better than let's say Bonzi Buddy. I'm not…
