There's the link and I'm pretty satisfied with it! :) I think I did pretty well never doing any formal schooling for CG Animation, Sound Design, Color correction, any of that! The entire extent of any formal art school other than the standard public school art classes was a couple semesters of photography back in early years of high school lmao.
Ok so, dep...
Been playing with this sound design all day and after about the 4th time redoing the cheek slapping section I now understand the value of doing a small sample sizes before going all in on a sound effect lol.
I'd say I'm doing good for never doing this before or having formal education though! :)
Whew this is a new experience. Adding sound to this 2 min clip. Pretty interesting, i can see how a specialized keyboard would come in REALLY handy lol.
Maybe I could make a profile in this steelseries program.
In addition to sound effects I like the idea of having some music playing since they're having a little mini afterparty. This may or may not be the final song, we'll see.
Recently been teaching myself how to use DaVinci Resolve 17 and it's very addicting.
This is a 10 second snip from about a 2 minute section.

I've been learning about compositing! First image is composited in blender then further composited in DaVinci Resolve and the second image is just straight out of blender (higher resolution also).
Honestly I don't know which I like better. I'm leaning toward the DaVinci one since it kinda of captures a better atmosphere. I'm going for a black light look to it.
There's also another guest in the scene. This will be obvious ofc since people will see the actual animated s...
This is a powerful tool and I'm figuring out how to use it! lol

Oh how time flies. So I've been spending time over the past year diving into the animation aspect of Blender, (in my spare time) and I feel like I've grown quite a bit from when I made that first post. Prior to that it was primarily focusing on navigating the UI and a crash course into model manipulation and creation (simple, sfw models so far, nothing super fancy and I plan to sprinkle them ...

I thought that last curve was the eureka moment.... after much thought and experementing.. this one looks way better lmao. I was watching some references and contemplating it over night when it dawned on me to try this and BAM it looks WAY better (at least i think so).
What I really find interesting is it almost looks like a simple DNA strand or something. Given the context of what's going on that just makes me go whoa.
This section I've been playing aroun...
All this time I've been focusing on secondary movements and I've been rubbing my 2 braincells together on how to do the primary motions.. and I think i kinda just figured out something while i was messing around....
We will see. This is on a separate blend file that I created so I can really hammer down the key looping sections and timing if you know what I mean. Now I need to go into the main blend file I've been working on all this time and apply what I'm seeing here and find out if...

First off, the project is coming along great. I think the time has come to start posting some actual content that isn't nerdy graph editor shots (sorry I just find it fascinating lol..) and ramblings of my creative process. The lighting is coming together and I need to start lassoing in how this is all going to play out. I'm thinking some images noting the different angles I want to capture then edit together into a flowing story. I'm thinking kind of like a storyboard type thing in my ...

The first project is coming along nicely and I feel like I'm growing as an animator by leaps and bounds from where I was. This first piece is almost to a point where I can start showing some actual previews instead of these nerdy screens of the technical aspects of the program. (Sorry it's just exciting to me, especially to see the development of the graph editor.)
I'll break down exactly what this is; It's the "bulk" of the scene. Covering the various positions our characters...

Been messing around with the graph editor over the past weeks and I think I'm really starting to grasp how it works. Kinda looks like an ECG/EKG monitor doesn't it?
Been about 20 days since last post and tbh since this is essentially just a monologue / journal of progression the updates may be pretty sporadic to avoid spamming this with a bunch of nonsensical gibber jabber. Rest assured I've been diligently working on this piece this whole time. I've been going back and exp...
Test rendered 276 frames to see how it looks from an actual video perspective and it was very insightful. Learned a valuable lesson about being sure to dial in my settings before hitting that render animation button too... In my haste I rewrote over the first 250 frames with just black from the video editor lol.
Tbh even though I spent most of that evening waiting for those frames to render I'm glad I learned that lesson now with only 250 frames. I re-rendered those frames and p...
So I've made it up to 1720 frames, that's like 71 seconds (I think) @ 24fps, and I'm really liking the directions but the more I watch it the more I see I need to really go through and do some fine tuning. I've been doing some as I go along and there's some sections I'm really liking but there's others that look fairly janky and I need to smooth them out. Been learning about the graph editor as I'm going along and I think it's the key to dialing this in to not look so robotic.
As I wa...
Started playing around with the graph editor and it's really fascinating to me. I can tell it's something super useful that I need to fully yield. I don't know what it is about it but it's like I'm staring at a neural network or something.
2021-05-03 04:46:43 +0000 UTC View PostTime warps here on the mountain.
So I've made it up to 1640 frames. That's about a little over a minute if my math is right (1640 / 24), mostly rough with some fine adjustments as I go along so I can get an idea of how I want it to turn out. At long last I feel like progress has been achieved in this dream.
I go for walks and ideas pop in my head on how I can improve this, and what directions I want to take it. These first 1640 frames have essentially become the "mi...
Wow time moves fast.
I think this is coming along quite nicely for being worked on in my spare time. I'm also fine tuning and zeroing in on the aspects I need to learn more. To date I've mostly been following courses, watching videos, getting a general knowledge of the ins and outs of the program itself with the over arching goal in mind to apply my learning to erotic art. As I work through this it's honing the skills you can only gain by doi...
Not sure how long this will actually end up being when it's all said and done but I have an idea of how I want it to unfold and where the conclusion will be. Should be interesting adding music and sound when all of the animation is finished.
Still roughing it to the end and occasionally doing fine tweaks as I scrub through it as I stuff pops out to me. Also playing around with some different camera angles and lighting as I go along. I have an idea of what kind of atmosphere I want and ...
It amazes me how doing this just evaporates time.
This scene just keeps growing and is probably gonna take forever to render lol. I still have a long way to go till it's completed for this is just the first pass with some small details added as I go.
There still needs to be 2 more passes of fine tuning (at least) once the whole long form scene is done and ofc lighting, sound, and all those small glorious details that really bring these to life.
I'm having a blast. &nbs...

Over the past week I've finally starting putting my first adult themed piece together. I'm currently working through the first rough pass and enjoying the ideas sparking off as I go along.
How long will it be? Not sure yet, but I don't want it to just be a simple loop. Sure, I plan to do quick loops, but I'd prefer having a larger piece tied to the loops. I am having a great time throwing on some music and just letting it flow out rather than simply following a course. ...
