Having 3 minute videos means you can now enjoy Angelo Badalamenti explaining how he wrote the Twin Peaks music for David Lynch.

Hey, friends! Here are some thoughts on using planes in your compositions.
Text: "Planes" are a depiction of anything that exists in a drawing at a FiXED spatial distance from the viewer, with each grouping of subjects at a shared distance overlapping the next in order to suggest the spatial relationship of each element in the drawing to the others. This image has three planes: (Image of a drawing with a scorpion on a rock, a cowboy sitting on a rock, and a mountain in the background). Each plane in an image signifies a different degree of distance, with the foreground SHARiNG the viewer’s spatial plane, and the background being the farthest from it. There’s clear distance between each plane; no plane “touches” another. Text: why is overlapping the planes necessary? (image: a cowboy apparently close to the viewer, one a ways back, and then a saloon behind him). Unless one plane directly overlaps another, there’s no sure clarity that they are, in fact, suggestive of different distances. (image: the cowboy appearing to be closest is shown to be a giant, swinging the apparently midground cowboy by the head into the two-story saloon that's only about as tall as a person). it’s also important to suggest scale in each plane using subjects whose size the audience is likely to know. when that isn’t possible, try repeating the element-of-unspecified-scale (a) from one plane in another and have it (B) interact there with a subject whose scale is clear. (image: a small round cactus in the foreground, and farther off a cowboy sitting on a similar cactus) Text: A perspective grid composition (A) suggests depth by progressive recession in space, while planar composition (B) suggests it with staggered recession in space. (image: a receding grid and a series of staggered planar elements) The principles of overlapping planar composition can be used with a perspective grid, especially if there are elements with right angles (like buildings). Rough your panel with plane elements in place first... ...then make/place a grid that fits your layout... ...then utilize the grid to make the receding angles match. (image: a wanted man hiding against a wall while a cowgirl crossed the street, looking around). One of the most useful* aspects of a foreground element is to create a sense of immersion for your audience. by putting it on essentially the same plane as the audience itself, the audience becomes a part of the story, seemingly able to touch the foreground, to lean around it for a better view. (image: the wanted man is now decidedly a foreground element). *it also means less time spent drawing all of the detail in the midground or background planes without ever aesthetically shortchanging your audience.

As 3DCG, primitive, but technique leverages a great feature of #Softimage (wish you were here) — texture mapping in camera space, using standard camera UI to adjust pos/rot and (here it comes) shift image plane (great for matching BG paintings with off center or out-of-bounds vanishing points).

From a #Tekkonkinkreet promo DVD, demo of our hybrid cinematography. Takuma Sakamoto and colleagues like Yusuke Tannawa (and the BG folks!) did most of the heavy lifting, but I got my hands plenty dirty too 😬

In Japan we call this kind of mock-up of a finished frame an “image board” and this was our very first for #Tekkonkinkreet

Layout by our brilliant character/animation lead Shojiro Nishimi, BG by the great Shinji Kimura.

#Tekkonkinkreet image board L/O #1 by Shojiro Nishimi. Note instructions to inbetweener to trace the character even outside the frame, and also pointing out the need for preserving color traces for shadows, in the eyes and around lips. #Tekkonkinkreet image board #1, completed, with BG by art director Shinji Kimura. This was finished in March 2004, nearly three years before our release

Might make a thread for this, I'm working on a little animation of a kind of gross out first person barbarian video game, basically one asset at a time, This is the first style frame from it while I work out what direction to go in, there'll be a POV weapon and a cool little menu/hud bar soon!

It might hurt my bottom line, but I’m probably going to stop posting art to Twitter entirely and I suggest you do too.

Not only is the site actively putting a “Okay, now remix this” button below art (and elevating them above the OP with a QRT) and it’s false flagging original art as made by AI.

Woke up to the epiphany that Day Of the Tentacle is the perfect art style, so I have to share this knowledge with everyone.

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.

Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

🏡Town Squared is a wonderful little game that I worked on a couple of years ago, and it just got announced!

And I have carte blanche to post all the concept art.
