FOSS moss.

I love that piece, the pose, the light shining thru the shirt, everything.

Don't forget "AI is gonna be the fix that Hollywood needs", and it's accompanied by the worst AI short film you've ever seen.

If only I wasn't broke ...

Luna is clearly on its last leg. I hope it doesn't break before the end of the production of Pandemonium. The computational costs of the project are between two or three times the ones of Bright Eyes in the Thunderclouds so I can't lose a whole computer like that.

It seems to render just fine in 4.4, so I might just stick to that version on Luna for EEVEE renders until I can get a proper upgrade.

This seems to be a recent problem, but the last driver update is pretty old, so it's either when I updated to Blender 4.5, or my graphics card is failing. I hope it's not a graphics card failure.

So there's this weird bug that only happens when rendering on EEVEE on Luna, some of the geometry gets wireframe showing up, and the geometry affected changes between Blender versions. I'm still not fully sure what causes it, switching to Vulkan doesn't do anything.

That's how I feel about my Minty. So much lore I want to explore with her, but I keep commissioning art of her in oversized shirts and heart print boxers.

She stole them from Pinkie didn't she?

Oh hey it's Lauren Faust at ... PONYVILLE CIDERFEST???

I tried to explain to him that Hasbro had no reason to do that, and that it would alienate viewers more than anything. But he didn't listen. He never listens.

I went to a Catholic school and I don't remember them focussing too much on not killing people. I guess that was not enough of a recurring problem. I did get stabbed in the shoulder once tho.

You say that, but I've actually done full scenes without sketching them. Once you get enough experience you can just freehand full scenes in your mind. The AI is in my head, it's just I.

I remember having programming exams on paper, it was weird, but it was a good teaching moment. I learned the hard way that the first exam was with open notes.

And some of them are played by pieces of garbage.

My gimbal is still very annoying with diagonal cinematic pans. It really likes doing horizontal and vertical pans, but not both at once. I also made the smart thing and actually look lots of photos for VFX reference. That's gonna be helpful in the long run.

Update: The film shoot went somewhat well. Turns out one of the locations was under renovation and closed to the public, but I was able to work around it. The low light was a bit of a challenge. I ended up having to do digital noise reduction to the footage to clean out most artifacts.

I do, it's @kinkyroot.bsky.social

A lot of modern Simpsons episodes can be summed up to "The family try a new modern thing, then give up on that later."
