Have folks never heard or pre-production?

[kenzie @kenzisaloser]

wtf do you mean NOW in production? WHAT TF HAVE THEY BEEN DOING THE LAST TWO YEARS?

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@venom1s Why did you crop the width? It would probably be more like this.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@EdKrassen @AOC @NYCMayor They don’t believe in “Round Earth” they believe “Earth is Round!” It’s the same words you idiot.

Warning: animation wonk post ahead…
In animation, camera placement/movement and much of cinematography is traditionally handled by a department called Layout. The title comes from the old Disney days when they would lay out the 2D backgrounds and the characters/props in the transition from storyboards to final shots. But in the world of CG animation, the term is confusing. The job is analogous to a live-action camera department: you’re picking lenses, designing shots in a virtual space. Many talented young tech-savvy filmmakers or cinematographers might like the opportunity to work on the camera team of an animated film and get experience telling story with camera, but don’t even know the job exists - and the term “Layout” isn’t helping: it sounds like you’re doing spreadsheets or something, not essential creative work.
Because of this, on Spider-Verse, we have changed the name to the Camera Department. I encourage other films and studios to do the same. It’s more respectful of the talented people who do this work and lets them say to their friends that they’re part of the camera team on a movie rather than the layout team, which means nothing to an outsider.

@ryangrim Just give people free time and houses. Many people want to have kids but only if they can have a childhood that doesn’t suck.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@ankkala This isn’t doing anything that isn’t already handled by physics simulation.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@RyanRozbiani Can we stop calling them “villages”? These are modern neighborhoods were regular people were living.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@SarahLongwell25 9/11 could have been avoided if we didn’t make new enemies all the time. Can’t we ever engage with the substance? It’s relevant because we’re making new enemies right now and the military contractors are loving it.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@ryangrim Funny how they moved the goalposts from “You must condemn Hasan” to “You don’t NEED to go on his show”

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

How is this a bad thing??? All I’ve ever wanted was an Elder Scrolls world with Assassins Creed climbing and other fun mechanics. If it’s so ‘cynical’ then how come no one else could pull it off?

[Pirat_Nation 🔴 @Pirat_Nation]

Larian Studios' Michael Douse called Crimson Desert a "cynical amalgamation of borrowed mechanics,"

"Expect a lot more of this in premium"

@JonasTyroller If the only reward for completing a puzzle is another puzzle I can’t get into it. There needs to be another element like story/exploration/fun traversal etc.

@GamewithDave

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@RegularStudio_ I liked the demo! Movement states were kinda rigid/kimematic. Hopefully those can get more fluid.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@All_Lee24 My fan theory is that those Envoys are the final form that the flesh jars are evolving into

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@GobaDev Just like Stranger Things (Part 5)[Section 2] {Episode 3}!

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@Ki3_Games Haven’t you heard? Slopes are actually impossible to achieve. https://t.co/W4VyIdSIQF

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

“My art isn’t slop!” *makes literal slop

[Chris @ChrisGPT]

Apparently this video has all of X in a frenzy. If it had come out before the AI era, people would be fawning over it as great art, but now they are so clicker trained that any mention of AI sends them into a verbiage frenzy and they anoint anything AI related as slop.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@JonasTyroller @Friedemann_A Great episode so far! Thanks for doing these! Will you ever do episodes like “Why my game failed?” Probably harder to find those people, but it might help to hear the other side of game dev.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@G0ffThew Same thing is happening in the VFX industry. That’s why VFX aren’t getting better. Overworked artists no longer have the same passion for the product.

[Rubo @kiwanodev]

@arkanavoid Is this the same animator as the Blockhead - Music Scene video? Looks amazing!
