MaxwellK | Actually I'll leave an animation rendering overnight, been meaning to do that for a while now. Short music video for Sweet November by SZA. | 22:00:44 |

MaxwellK | Custom map built with Hammer, scenery props from Team Fortress 2, motorcycle from SFM Workshop, particle effects from Portal 1, human model/parts from Workshop too. | 21:38:20 |
MaxwellK | Then processed with GIMP for a desaturated look, with a mild heat haze effect and some sort of sun glare effect in the top right, didn't want it to be too glaringly obvious so it's kinda subtle. | 21:39:04 |
MaxwellK | Could have done some interesting stuff with shadows at the back with the mountains (resized rocks from TF2), but the lighting on this was stupid enough with having to compile a custom map at the size limits of the Source engine. | 21:39:56 |
MaxwellK | Rendered at 3840x2160, letterboxed in post, 1024DOF samples and 256 motion samples, the motion still looks a little... crap. | 21:41:38 |
MaxwellK | Source Filmmaker's motion blur solution is brute force as anything and annoys me to no end, it just renders 256 (or how many ever samples you want) sub-frames between the current and last frame, then stacks them ontop of eachother in layers. | 21:44:21 |
MaxwellK | It's basically the most inefficient solution possible... but it works I guess. | 21:44:36 |
MaxwellK | Blender has a niiiiiice new solution in a recent Cycles update, can't remember how it works, but something like a 10x jump in performance, I need to look into how they achieved that actually. | 21:49:12 |
MaxwellK | Source engine be old yet reliable as always though. | 21:49:20 |

MaxwellK | Trying to do a tribute to Jim Sterling's old theme tune 'Born Depressed' by Drill Queen, the image looks good, but I can't figure out how to make the text work :/ | 00:12:37 |

MaxwellK | Different font, something more within the authoriarian/russian propoganda font used in the old intro. | 00:27:17 |
MaxwellK | Download borndifferent4.jpg | 00:32:27 |
MaxwellK | Made this but I think I prefer the previous one more, takes up more space, and I like the slowly decreasing font size. | 00:32:37 |

MaxwellK | YouTube's compression is awful, tried to upload a WIP of an animation and YouTube's compression crushed all the dark colours into a dark grey blob where you can't pick anything apart. | 02:41:55 |
