Do you think that storytelling is important for CG artists?
Join the discussion and tell me what you think. Or maybe share the render that communicates a great story.

A lot of good tips. 🙂 Did you know that guy in the background? Haha. Well, I enjoy your podcasts, and thanks for another one (and thanks for the frozen face).
Also, do you do a lot of post processing and color correction on your podcast videos? Do you do it in Blender, or do you use other software as well. You do have a very nice idea of color and how to make it look good. 🙂
(also, when you do it, do you use the compositor? I have tried, and haven’t found an efficient way to run the video from the sequence editor through the compositor, and into the video output. To get a video through the compositor, I find that you have to render some frame, even if it’s nothing, then it will go to the compositor. Do you know a way around this?)

This guy stands behind the camera (usually). His name is Nik.
I edit my videos in Premiere, and use it for color correction too. Just a simple RGB curves, nothing more 🙂

How did I not know this existed!?! Time to binge listen! ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
Gleb Alexandrov
How, indeed? Oh I will incinerate my marketing department later today.
Uncle Snail
Yeah, I actually had the urge to check for a new post and went on your blog right before I got the email. Email notifications are really a good way to get people to see your new content.
D Brown
Indeed. That’s how I find out about most things that are published here at CS. This was the first email I received about the podcast, and I was like, “Wait, what?” when I saw it was episode 8. lol.
Gleb Alexandrov
Haha, good to know 🙂

Real-time rendering would be a great improvement if quality is not lost. Loving your podcasts so far. Cheers!

Yeah. It’s cool that we already can achieve almost the same effect as Internal just in the Cycles viewport. That’s getting closer to realtime. 🙂

That was the first time I heard you swear, I think :p
