VFX Compositing Supervisor. Solo game dev. Will undoubtedly make a typo.

@magicswordmusic @iamtimlarsen Oh my god, that’s why I felt like I recognized it when I saw the trailer. 😬

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

Oh look, turns out the obvious is in fact the reality.

Daniel got important clarifications from NVIDIA. TLDR: the "DLSS5 skeptical" were right about *everything*.

1⃣ It's a 2D AI Filter. Input is only color buffer & motion vectors. The model doesn't see geometry, lights, PBR properties, normals, anything🧵

I don’t like people shitting on things others have created. Putting something out into the world makes you vulnerable, and that alone deserves respect, even if you dislike the creation. It’s easy to destroy things, it’s a lot harder to build them. The best critics understand this. Even when they’re being critical, they do their best not to be hurtful.

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

LOL NAILED IT. Beat the game on session 33. (From the Steam year in review.)

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

@FlippedNormals Not the only reason but the fact that the form timed out in 24hrs really parallels how I missed the window of opportunity for the latest FlipBox. Some of us have jobs and don’t go on twitter everyday so we just don’t know it’s happening.

The public genuinely have no idea what’s hard to do in 3d or not

@somartist2 Amazing ✨

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

@TWRPband That is horrific

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

@TWRPband Excellent concert yesterday, unlocking that hidden potential today.

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

@AndrewHodgson3D I did a film program at my university but taught myself Nuke through Digital Tutors and YouTube. Also turned out alright.

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

@TWRPband Thank you.

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

(2/2) in his free time. He is an inspiration to me in my own creative journeys and I hope everyone out there has someone like him to look up to. Rest in Peace and thank you for everything you've given the world.

@Starcadian has easily been my favorite musician for years and I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. He made some of the greatest and most inspiring music I have ever listened to. Today I learned that he was a VFX artist like myself and did more things that he loved (1/2)

The Driller Bot from #Transformers Dark of the Moon was the most complex asset ILM had done for Transformers by that point. It had 70,000 individual parts, over 7x more than Optimus Prime.

This sequence where it is crushing the skyscraper took 288 hours per frame to render with all of the reflections and simulations.

During the last weekend, ILM used their entire render farm, amounting to 200,000 rendering hours per day which is 22.8 years of rendering time in 24 hours.

@Drawmaevedraw 11, like a thousand times over.

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

GetWorldLocation() shit, no…GetRelativeLocation()…. wait, FUCK.

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

@robotgrapefruit Okay, hear me out. More ducks! 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

@SandWitchDev @TheGreatJug Art direction is 99% of the reason I bought the game. The last 1% was the caravan of course.

[Andrew Steidtmann @AndrewsHotTakes]

Oh hell yeah, this game is French as fuck. 💙
