I am working on a webpage, this will be the startpoint.
Niels.
I made a two-leg version, I raised the density of the model a bit to make it somewhat animatable instead of my first intention as decor-prop-doll..., no finished rig yet.
[attachmentid=23243]

yes, and still a no-go. it must have been somehow deleted or removed, can you still give me the list of the constraints so that this might become fixed?
If you think you've deleted part(s) of the 2001-rig, 'save as' your project-embedded, with your that project open, import the 2001-skeleton and re-copy the relations. 'The Art of Animation:Master' has a description for implementing such a rig, this if you don't know what I mean with re-copy relationships.

Did you check [ALT+4] if the constrain-relations are ON?

If only all the philosophy you guys are pumping out could be digital converted to do something useful.
Wisdom hath say nothing and a prophet hath known.
Maybe I should go back to programing and set up the forum so people have got the choice of getting notification to answers that are useful.
Who will decide such a thing, will there be an extra icon(s) who judged the usefulness at what time. I could advise you the search-engine, that gives a line-up. The forum isn't a book, and the realtime catalog capabilities are way-off, as the catalog-rules are mostly too. We could talk e.g. assembly if you want, but that would be real off-topic.
The Internet is loaded with chat rooms and forums dedicated to people playing out drama. When I get tired of the drama I come to this kind of forum and the programming ones to exercise my mind and learn new things.
Maybe this could be your idea for an animation-film.
Try going for a week without a bath and see how you react when you are reminded by someone you don't know.
Depends on the cause what took me waiting to finally take one.
The same sadly is true for most of the west world. Most people do some kind of job for a living but explaining the step required to complete a task can be a very painful process.
Most Employers often complain they can't find good workers or workers that will stay in the company. I my experience I have found most of these employers have communication problems when it comes to explaining the job. And to me the biggest cause problems in the world right now is human communication. Overloaded with information and spoiled with possessions the human mind has become lazy and is incapable of solving simple problems and if left along to long the simple problems become major
Sad, very sad, 'drama' you called it earlier, you also must be having far more wisdom than GOD.

Does answering the same question ten or twelve times count as noise?
Only if the answer isn't been transported
It does make a difference from whom an answer is coming but yet telling truth could reside in all.
Niels

it reminds me of the 70's and those kaleidescope video clips!
David, I'm too yong that it reminds me of anything other than the classification 'dreamy'
Niels
There's obviously a scene that this song is connected to and that might make all the difference in the world and fit perfectly.
I see Woot e.g. hobbling and sitting on a rock, while a cloud appears showing his thoughts where the camera could zoom into to make it full-screen. Thought are mostly flash-backs, not necesarily all from the past film-material but it should begin with one, to make clear where seeing his thoughts.
As one part of a larger whole I think this could really soar as Woot's theme.
It seems to really dig into his character in ways that "I Wanna Be An Adventurer" etc don't.
I like the contrast too.
Niels.

(I know i can't sing)...
Teresa, all start with the can't singing part.(As this is true with life many found the manual and therefore guidance.)
I am not against the fact 'the Tingirl-part' should be sung by a girl, if you want a version where I am silent at the Tingirl-parts, let me know.
Niels.
-
Thanks for the substitute; 'e.g.' it will be.
Niels.
ps.
Paul?
Cycle length can be "Perhaps Anotherwayof sayingthisis..." 13.39 in order to keep things on timetrack.
-
Is there a more clearer expression to use instead of 'p.a.', that you know of?

lovely gorgeous feeling - brings wonderful dreamy imagery to mind
some vocalization spots seemed a bit off (like I would really know) - but the overall impression, mood, & sound is sweet, tender, beautiful
Starting off with the idea to use my normal voice for Tinman and a falset-voice for tingirl and recording it at morning... I already made the Tinman recordings and later-on skipped the falset-voice approach.
I am more than happy to sing it again and practice a little before recording...
Niels
ps.
I didn't really listen much to the song, though saying this.
-
As I learned this once, 'p.a.' should mean 'for example'.
Niels
In relation to music it could meant pre-amplifier

It would be nice if the BPM ws posted somewhere along with the songs.
I will post tomorrow all BPM's of all songs.
I know tht when I worked with Woot's "I want to be an adventurr" song, I had to stopwatch it.
There's a way to calculate the BPM taking the number of samples between two beats and using a formula with the appropriate samplerate.
Also, what about adjusting the BPM of the songs so that it falls nicely on 24th of second?
24fps does equals a constant tempo X, tempo's that could be used would stuck at X*multiplier.
Of course there's little room, working with 12th frames.
One has several options though:
- Make a repetitive dummy-action,p.a. beat=13.39, ActionFrames=13, setting the cyclelength to 13.39 gives a sort of music-bar-timeline ergo where to start on the beat.
- An other option is don't change tempo, change the framerate and render with the right step.
Niels.
Would it be possible to load a song into something like Sony's Acid software and have it determine the beats per minute?
I remember the existence of such automated beat-calculation but it will function best with loud beat or beat-samples, the more standard way is having the wave displayed, make 2 markers or the right selection and tell the software to do a beat-calculation.
I am not familiar with Acid.
Niels
A metronome wav-file can be helpful, maybe something for the f(e)uture to implement a (midi/audio) metronome...

If anyone wonders what formula to use when it comes to calculating BPM(Beats-per-minute) to FPS(Frames-per-second)
60:BPM*FPS=NumberOfFramesPerBeat
Niels
ps.
Cycle length can be p.a. 13.39 in order to keep things on timetrack

I am not saying it is but check:
enforcement time-based not constant
interpolation-method (choose a no sawtooth-figure)
-
Nancy,
I am interested in the highest bitrate vocal-only edition.
Everything I edit, will apply to the entire vocaltrack, meaning when a pitch-change is needed, I want the result to be your vocalpitch changed not the (background)music.
Niels
ps.
I will send you a PM where to upload the file(s).

Where on DreamWorks page can I find that, Niels?
> ANIMATION SKG
> Inside the Studio
> ANIMATION 101 How We Make Movies
> Development
> Click(3 times Next) to page 5
PAGE5
- Here's the nice (studio) still.
- Record voice but also video for expressions, is mentioned ahere.
You'll probably want to check-out the other pages as well
Niels

I must add that the specific assignments are pieces of finished sequences? (I went to the DreamWorks-homepage...)
This remark was indeed with soundfx in mind...

TODAY'S HEADLINE: Not A Number Cyborg (Nancy) needs android-filter. Coming up next...
Nancy in order to make the best of all (points beneath start with please):
- stay off the booze and start with hotdrinks(tea, coffee)
- use headphones while recording
- record mono uncompressed .WAV 44100 kHz or 48000 kHz
- convert .WAV to .MP3(or .WMA) (make sure it is mono and 192 Kbit/s)
- U may send a 'one take'-file, single 'per chorus/verse' files or even per sentence
Niels
ps.
Nancy, you maybe surprised how well things turn-out in the end.
-
I had this file with me and decided not to upload it
Today, I have a similar version with me, this only to give an idea for the words layout, there's a metronome running along and I muted the fast-violins, so Nancy will be able to hear the melody better.
Niels.
ps.
Martin, this is how I got to the extended words...
p2.
Rodney, this is definatly not the update of the song, but a discreet Nancy-version...
-
Anyone who renames any files... you've got to fix the wiki!
I did up-load/date a new Ku-Klip version, but I noticed the title changed...(I used characters like ,-() )
That someone should update the WIKI-page?

Most of people nowadays drive with a blinded shield, they can't get focus in zenith, don't really care much for the signs and they believe the point one is, has got to be the right perspective to go on 'their' way but one missed the fundamental startingpoint behind one and the one in zenith. Learning, understanding, adapting and execute with scheduled retrace and zenith-perspective, although the schedule must stay the update time will grow.
Niels.
ps.
Would it be wise and is it time for a human-machine?
