Hey, let me drunkenly animate your photos in about 25 to 60 days!

cool skulls, u need to submit that to dasharez0ne

i'm not familiar with dasharez0ne...i see their twitter/facebook page but not a submit area, hmm...

btw does anyone know of a image to ascii application/online tool that lets you specify which characters you want to be used? i have something in mind that would be cool, but it will only work if the ascii is made up of straight lines (slashes, dashes, etc)

a few months ago i was trying to make an ambient bob ross video, 10+ minute/relaxation kind of thing. but it was taking a lot longer than i wanted to spend and i ended up moving onto other things. but here's the dregs, at least:

i'm supposed to a projection thing next month and they offered to accommodate projections on non-flat surfaces, so i'm going to try to build a small 3-sided inverted staircase and then project the surface onto it, like this:

if all goes well it will look like a real 3D staircase from one viewing angle and look kind of odd from others

whoa

(haven't done it yet but i'm going to have a separate loop of water for the inbetween spaces, and another for the side on the right)

xpost yeah i think it's going to look really cool, at least if i can build a staircase that doesn't fall over! i am not handy at all but i'm thinking it would just be a matter of nailing a few pieces of plywood together and then painting the whole thing white.

Or foamcore and glue if it doesn't need to be strong.

just needs to a) be sturdy enough to not fall over and be transported without breaking, and b) be bright white

OK, I know The Mailman is much better at these things than I am, but I figured I'd take a shot anyway....

these are some of the waters i'm using for this projection thing i'm working on (albeit in the crappy lossy/gif every-6th-frame-for-smaller-filesize version)

Cool!

that glowing thing is in the center is just a whoopsy daisy courtesy the crappy 4s camera, in real life it's not there, but i kind of wish it was!

WERE

That is sweet.

for those in the NYC area, i'm showing the staircase thing as part of a group show on oct 1/2 - it'd be cool to see anybody there! a facebook invite thing went out, it looks like: https://www.facebook.com/events/608846799293982/612239082288087/?notif_t=like¬if_id=1474004880100910

the show went pretty well! thanks especially to the local ilxors who came and said hello, it was really good to see you!

i took a short video of the staircase thing from different angles: http://weinventyou.net/post/151315634778/staircase-loop-dreams

and here's a still from one of the distorted angles:

Omg dat gif!

i keep making slow progress in learning the ways of cinema4d. at one point i knew how to define a path for a camera to follow while focusing on a particular target, and then i completely forgot how to do everything and had to start from square one again. i think i got the hang of it again though, and i finally learned how to add looping videos that sync up with everything else:

sorry for the barrage of messages on this, for those that follow me on facebook/instagram/twitter. i've set up new dedicated accounts on each of those platforms for my gifs.

Twitter: @ZachScott_gif
Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/Zach-Scottgif-1132985923460005 (classic URL, facepalm)

for various reasons i've always had a very inconsistent approach with posting my images on those platforms - i feel shy about subjecting other people to my work, knowing that many of them are family/co-workers/acquaintances etc that don't know anything about my secret gif life, and that many of them just are not going to be into it at all. so it's always been a bit agonizing to post a new gif in those places, Facebook especially, knowing that's not what they "friended" me for. (i don't feel the same way about this thread, incidentally, because at least once you've clicked it a few times you know what you're getting to and it's easy to avoid afterward).

i'm hoping that people will be interested in checking out the instagram account, though, because i'll be posting much higher quality versions of my images there. where gifs have to be 256 colors or less, and usually 2MB or less in order to post on tumblr and other places, on instagram i'll be posting high resolution video versions of the same images, sometimes with many more frames included per loop. as an example, here's a new gif for today:

http://68.media.tumblr.com/a16807c9dde08dbf78aa4f458fb73b67/tumblr_ofwa5swNNj1qdmmiqo4_500.gif

if you have the time, compare that to the video version i posted here: https://www.instagram.com/zachscott.gif/

wtf, i posted those new account links a little too drunkenly there, sorry.

i don't understand what i'm doing wrong with the instagram link.

i missed the deadline on the gif it up contest this year. i think i entered something terrible for it last year. the archive they're trying to promote is organized in the least helpful way to someone trying to comb through it. or at least it was last year.

let's see if i can get my phasing ralphie thing to work here
