Compositing and Masking How-To (sort of) Video
Added 2021-10-21 10:01:01 +0000 UTCHello there
So I wanted to film some behind-the-scenes stuff from the latest Rocky Robot video, but it was already so overwhelming that I didn't add to my workload.
However, I did do a retrospective behind-the-scenes this evening, showing you the little tricks I wanted to get on the record, and this is it. As you'll hear in the video, I have done this as much for me as I have for you, because I will forget how I did it and then I can go back and check this video (I've done that loads of times with other ones on here).
I also found out this evening that the front-facing camera on the newest iPad Pro is awful, so I will be doing the zoomed out setting from now onwards when I use this as that seems to be better. Or I'll just use one of the proper cameras I have in my house and stop being such a lazy bones just grabbing the nearest thing to me.
Anyways, have a look if you fancy. It might be interesting on some levels, seeing how things were done, even if you've no interest in the technical stuff (like I haven't). I am a bit proud of myself for working around things again, and it gives me confidence in carrying on the proper animated stuff (confidence that I have done all the flashy stuff now, so should be able to do it again).
Hope your Thursday is a lovely one so far. Please carry on like that thank you.
Much love from here

Ha you could do it, but well done on making sure I never ask you to xx
2021-10-26 08:33:57 +0000 UTCI enjoyed this. I wouldn’t be able to do it, but I enjoyed seeing how fiddly and complicated it is. Xx
2021-10-26 06:31:54 +0000 UTCI find it hard enough remembering how to work one computer, without adding an entirely different one into the mix. In truth, I think it was only struggling because I was screen recording and because I need to do a big clear out of files. They accumulate fast with the animation stuff.
