This includes videos and pages lacking clear instruction, speedpaints, timelapses, and anything with significant amounts of misinformation.

Jokes at another person’s expense, personal attacks, flaming, derailing threads, name-calling, trolling, and generally being an asshole will get you banned. “I like the use of color” or “the legs are too short” are much more helpful than “I like it” or “I don’t like it.”īe civil. Give constructive feedback, including examples of what works or doesn’t work. Sometimes miscommunication happens, just be cool.

Everybody at one stage or another pretends that they know what they’re doing.Welcome to /r/Learnart, for artists and aspiring artists of all skill levels!

I love anything stop-motion, surreal, or absurd.
#Silhouette art ctrl paint tv
What’s your favorite film and/or TV series? Game of Thrones, The Dark Crystal, anything Aardman - especially Wallace & Gromit. Sometimes the work can be detailed and tedious, but digital paint is satisfying. What do you do when you start feeling creative burnout? I am lucky to say that my job doesn’t burn me out creatively. Where do you turn for creative inspiration? Listening to music gives me staying power at my desk! How do you keep yourself fueled/your favorite snack when you’re in an epic session? Usually, if I am racing the clock, just a flat white with a dash of cinnamon does the trick for me! As a traditional artist also, I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve held a pencil in my hand and after making an unintentional mark, mentally tried to ‘Ctrl-Z’ the blunder. What’s a keyboard shortcut you can’t live without? My answer to this is not a very controversial one. And for more procedural tasks, you can’t beat Mocha as a tracker. The speed at which I can achieve in Silhouette makes the job much less painful - and genuinely satisfying. I predominantly ‘hand paint’ at work which involves frame by frame rebuilding of organic and quite often complex elements within shots. What are your go-to Boris FX products and which effect/features do you rely on most? Silhouette and Mocha Pro.

Going somewhere beautiful and serene within New Zealand has become a tradition. How do you prep before a big project? All year round, every year, is go! Making sure I get a good holiday, would be my answer! An annual end-of-year pilgrimage with my partner generally resets me and prepares me for the year to come. ( Game of Thrones, photo: Courtesy of HBO) What project are you most proud of and why? The Planet of the Apes trilogy and Alita: Battle Angel felt like major visual effects feats, so I was pleased to have been involved with them! But I’d have to say I was most excited by Game of Thrones (Season 8) - as a fan myself, helping out with making the pop-culture phenomenon has been a great source of pride. I’ve now spent 7 years here, and am a painter. I made a successful application for an entry-level rotoscoping job with some drawings and a couple of homemade stop-motion films to show for myself.

Luckily, being a native New Zealander, and having Weta Digital nearby, I managed to slide my foot in the door of the feature film industry.

Where are you from and how did you get your start in the industry? I knew I wanted to be a professional artist as I worked my way through school, but was unsure about the reality of achieving that in the traditional sphere.
