Youre reaching on this talk / presentation in my opinion. Overreaching. Maybe you should stop giving it for now and do it again in 10 years or so. No offense.
Hey there folks. I don't get to post around on polycount as much as I would like lately so when I do I try to make it count. The thing I want to share with you today is probably the most important piece of advice I ever had to share to this point, with both students and professionals. It's a talk I've been doing for a few…
I think it was a good talk too and it's important that students think and talk about this topic. I agree that we are all essentially talking about the same things it was just your choice of vocabulary that threw me off. I do actually like discussing this topic which is why I commented. To give more food for thought,…
lol I only realized how long it was intill I posted and than I did a self face palm So I think after reading what you posted here and crossed referenced with your Talk. The main aspect you are trying to point out is a means of which to improve or present your art work. Lets put myself in your course and only hear your talk…
MM, the beauty of being invited to speak in front of students or fellow industry members is in that you're asked to provide your point of you on things.

wow, thank you guys that's very interesting. This in particular :poly115: I think the word 'formula' actually originated from Nick in this conversation. What I'm referring to throughout the talk are "elements" of beauty, which are essentially the guides you're talking about. The only formula I could derive from the talk…
hi Andrew, I am sorry you are taking offense to my feedback. the thing is here in polycount forum and in this thread where i am giving feedback to you (however brutal or honest it may be) is not same as speaking to a group of impressionable students/learners. also how am i pretending to possess ultimate knowledge ? where…
I agree with MM on the usage of the word 'beauty', personally I would avoid it as it is subjective, I would use the term 'aesthetics' instead. Using aesthetics removes the emotion ties and focuses on the pure art fundamentals and theories. Rather than 'execution', surely we are talking about 'craftsmanship' here and when…
I remember stumbling upon it via YouTube suggestions to some Feng Zhu video, it was a bit disappointing tbh. The analyses seem very superficial and subjective to me, but I guess it's not that easy to talk about things that are pretty subjective by nature. I think you could have made more effort going into art theory…
