Hello. I apologise if this is misplaced, my first time on this forum. I like birdwatching and I was wondering if there were any sites that have tips for birdwatching and pictures. Thank you
I'm sure there is some info on various birds on wikipedia, and various channels about birds on youtube, plus many books on this subject. Or do you want something more specific?
I think birdwatching forum refers to forums that are very very slow, is this the joke you are going for?
Through surface searches I find a few good channels, but I ask here to see if there’s any more obscure ones people would recommend. Or just good ones in general,I didn’t mean for the birdwatching forum joke, but that is kind of funny haha.
Searching for the underground birdwatching tips, if that is a thing that exists
I got my birdwatching badge at scouts, one thing I learned is that those guys can fly, so you've got to keep an eye on the sky as well on the ground and in the trees
Trying to understand walking animation, thru procedural system. Doesnt work well, since i seem to learn more visually than not. https://devforum.roblox.com/t/procedural-walking-cycle-animation/809116
https://scialert.net/fulltext/?doi=ajsr.2015.165.181
Is there a way for me to "generate" correct motion, other than 3d computers graphic, maybe mathemathically or visually, so that a gait is generally correct, realistic of sort, or just at least functional looking, with relevance to things like weight, speed, conditions, which changes the posture of the gait itself somehow??? ideally i only work with information like xyz coordinates but anything with proven image, or gifs, seems valid then.
Otherwise I cant find anything more, dynamic than mathemathics... so without it i d need to own a farm like disney and feed a bunch of cattle which, could be ideal, but then, maybe not either.
warning: thread is not for lazy roto artist who have farms.
bro
I said how to calculate. not trace a fuckinh video.
If you do an animation course, you're expected to have experience in life drawing, and sometimes they include a life drawing module. This is so you have a good understanding of how bodies move, so you can make realistic animations. Tbh mate it seems kinda stupid looking for mathematical formulae to work it out for you. Maybe have a look and see if there are any life drawing clubs in your town? There's a good one here in a bohemian bar where you can have a pint or six and draw some real titties, you can even tell them how you want them to pose
>>2 if animation is as easy as being good at drawing there is no need to invent animation tools
>>3 It's not so much about "being good at drawing" but understanding better how bodies are put together, how the muscles move in relation to each other and stuff so you can make more realistic animations without the need for "animation tools". You think Walt Disney, Hayao Miyazaki, Tex Avery, any of those masters, learned using animation tools? It sounds like you're asking how to be good but you don't want to know the basics.
Since usually it's not really realism you want in an animation, you're trying to express the character's feelings and emotions through their movement, if you have a good understanding of how bodies (humans or animals or anthropomorphic objects) are put together, you'll be able to exaggerate and accentuate the movements your character makes in a way that's expressive but also looks natural
>as easy as being good at drawing
It's quite handy! If you're the same guy that posted pics of sketches you did recently, you should draw for another few thousand hours before dismissing it so easily
>>4 well you were the one who only suggested life drawing and dismiss mathemathics as stupid.
>bodies and muscle and put together.
clearly this is not the same topic but maybe you have hard time noticing it.
>using animation tools?
yes, they rotoed, i suppose. or actually use some brainy solutions i have not read, or you.
>Basics
i m not sure if mathemathics is not basic, given it is a discipline existing in just about many things.
>>4 also this isnt some childsplay pornart business where you can get by just by drawing two pebbles side by side, so unless you are really really talented, or just a plain cheat, making realistic motion is, an actual, thought out mechanical process that require real mechanical solutions, which can only be done with real studying and not just, swinging your pencil around some naked woman, sir.
>>4 otherwise we wont have all these retarded pebble animation and some lazy oh-so-wise advice you write everyday on your diary because it's easier than an actual, legitimate linear interpolation function with factual basis to be questioned about, but i guess you just like reading your own words too.

Hey ya'll.
I've been playing guitar for about two years, but I am not very skilled at all. I need some fairly easy, but good sounding songs to learn.
And how much would a bass guitar cost? Would I need a seperate amp just for it? I have a good amp for my Electric.
Don't use an electric bass on a guitar amp. My advice is don't think it won't happen because it will. You'll ruin it.
You can use a electric bass on a guitar amp. just don't use it too loud, because THAT is what fucks up the amp. using your guitar amp for gigs and such is completly out of the question.
If you're buying a bass to begin learning how to play, I guess you could slightly wreck your guitar amp trying to find out whether you want to play it or not. After a few weeks, if you find that you like playing bass, I suggest that you invest in a bass amp. It's the frequency of the sound of the bass that ruins a guitar amp; volume affects this but is not the only factor. Just because you turn down the volume does not guarantee that the guitar amp will not be destroyed.
Incidentally, in buying a bass, I recommend a 4-sting passive, preferably secondhand as you are not yet sure whether you will pursue this hobby.
And for the record, learning how to play the bass is quite different from the guitar. The strings are thicker, the techniques (slapping, popping, tapping, etc.) are different, and plucking is different as well (and is not a very common technique).
The best way I've improved was by listening to many different styles of music. For 4 years, I've played nothing but punk and some mainstream rock bands, and I had never really gotten better. It wasn't until I started listening to and playing blues, classic rock, and heavy metal that I got better, quicker.
Although learning these songs may help improve your technique, looking into learning scales, chords, and basic music theory is very important. Out of these, I'm most knowledgeable on learning scales (my failure as a rhythm player is due to my lack of knowledge on more complex chords and most music theory). Start with the minor pentatonic scale (http://www.jamcenter.com/minorpentatonic.html). There are a number of sites that provide lessons on becoming more familiar with this scale (http://www.worldguitar.com/warmup2.html). Once you know the scale through the fretboard (not necessarily mastered), you can start learning to improvise. This takes a lot of time and practice. The best way I learned to do this was by listening to a lot of blues musicians (I listened to a lot of B.B. King, Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughan) and learning guitar licks. I use these licks in my playing, but I eventually learned to create my own which would eventually shape my own style of playing. These things will sort of come naturally to you once you get started on it. Also, don't be afraid to jam with other guitar players. I learned a lot from a man who I met and jammed with at Guitar Center. He was one of my main inspirations for playing the blues.
Explore the Jam Center website. It has a lot of free lessons that you can use.
If you decide to learn bass, get ready for lots of painful blisters on your fingertips if you get serious. They hurt like crazy, but they're the fastest way to get calluses, which make your fingers more resistant to blisters and pain.

If you can play a bit of guitar already, bass is really easy! Also, guitar amps aren't designed to handle the bass guitar's lower frequencies, don't risk it!
Basically the key is to pace the right position and orientation for an animation to loop in a: balance, b: natural/weighted
the idea is simple enough, if the position and orientations are right,so will the animation. Including the balance and natural ways limb move in turn, the values of these position must also include the required offset that makes the motion move in correct pattern.
Anything is welcome. Math physics, or some funky non logical ways to define the correct image.
Ready and Go.
keep it in one thread, nigger
>>2 oh boy, you are the joke to your allah for his heaven boy. it was very funny to leave you to anubis or whatsoever chimpgod for a few fifty percent of your life of somethin.
not less, since you wont "learn"and that s no fun.
>>2 also i had the warranty to put the apple to you becauss only smart intelligent boys and girls go to heaven.
A "test", as he said. but you were so miserable i just wanna pull you out but really it is better for me to enslave you per his instruction. also the children to come. Nothing personal kid, he also made the dog-munist who always go to heaven like most animals. You are a little bit prettier to step and squeeze and also worthlessly retarded.
>>2 so dont complaint much now, you dont really get that special package to go to heaven unlike we animals.
and just like the cat mothers
what do you care after all the wars and conflict, but to fatten yourself.
Only a different monkeys, licking own balls.
keep it in one post, nigger
XD this one's my favourite
You cant even put down simple numbers and model to suport your knowledge? Maybe you know nothing at all lol. Just parotting whatever you read on the internet and tracing from your pirated animation while replaying it again and again saying "good job you are special". Or perhaps hiring your mum to do your work since you cant even memorize a short 100 letter concept of what the fuck you are doing?
emphasize on "simple". easy but you cant.
XD Who are you angry at ITT?
i wanna know how to mathemathically calculate positions in animation!
two things to make : balance, weight/naturality
and it all falls down to a. position b. orientation
so i just simply need a way to calculate the exact values of these, somehow how do i do that?
You can also:
1) Do motion capture
2) Film a video and trace it
3) Hand animate everything, and just fix everything that doesn't look natural until it does.
Are you interested in 2d or 3d animation?
>>5 2d or 3d seems to follow the same set of realism...
Sorry, what I meant, are you interested in pen and pencil animation or 3D CGI animation? First kind is probably dead by this point, jews often jew out of that in favor of cheaper 3d one. Japs still do something akin to traditional animation, but it slowly and steadily goes to shit even there.
>>7 as i said, i am not biased. 2d is more convenient for learning now and i practically memorized everything about rigging and animation shortcuts, so other than MEL, i have no issue either.
the topic in question is more about the physics and the exact specific values needed to place the limbs so things look "natural" enough, but i cant seem to think of anything but simple angular mathemathics...
What's MEL?
>>9 the programming stuff in maya. it's python like but i guess it is useless if you dont know how or what math for it to run... which is the reason why i am here now. doing basics.
I see. I'm more of a blender3d guy, I know nothing about Maya.
Are you making a videogame or a video? Or maybe just a gif? Do you want to make animation your career, or are you just wasting yours and everyone's time?
https://www.gamedesigning.org/animation/books/
I've read only "The Animators Survival Kit" out of those. It felt a bit wasteful, lots of barely useful talk and just a few actually useful advices, like "make mass constant between frames". Also it is too old fashioned, it talks about like 1960's western animation. You need to make a video about animation, not a book.
Interesting thing I learned from watching "Puss in boots" by toei animation ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wonderful_World_of_Puss_'n_Boots , I'm not sure why english title is so retarded, japanese title is just "Nagagutsu wo haitta neko", literally "Puss in boots"), is that picking a good character design is very important for making animators' lives less painful. Literally everyone's head there is a circle, they are mostly made of ovals, yet it doesn't jump into your eyes that much. Western cartoons also have simplified character designs, but those are just abhorrent monstrosities most of the time, going full jew to save money. The x-men cartoon is good, everyone looks human, cartoons with talking animals are eh, can't stomach those anymore, but some go below that.
>>11 Whatever i wanna fucking do is up to me and not yours. i suggest you to not waste my time too with your sly commentary.
I also dont care about animation job, i do this for fun but fun itself needs some sort of general standard, and for that i'd suggest anybody to take this matter as seriously if not technical and calculated approach.
>character design
i have that taken care of, and being a hobby i have no production demands on me so we dont need to expand on that, but however animation and physicality seems to rely on some sort of realism a mere reference video does not always provide if not followed by a detailed study and guide; only an experienced hand can make use of raw references or maybe create new, reliable content purely from imagination.
I wouldnt call myself a professional, but i know enough when a material is not feasible, and we can always compare results, your results, and call it a day. So please, make this discussion profound and short, by any means, if you have no time but yours to waste.
Allright. I thought a little warning before you go and waste a few years of your life is necessary.
Care to post a few of your works? I'm curious about your powerlevel right now.
ok pancakes (crepes) are ez as to make and the mixture can keep in the fridge for a few days too so it's great if you're lazy/depressed :D :3
get a mixing bowl and put in 2 eggs, maybe 100/150g normal flour, and some milk. Mix it up. Add milk to help mix up, and flour to thicken. It should be quite runny, but it can also be a little viscous, try out different thicknesses and see what you like. Then once you've made this mix get the flattest pan you have and put a little cooking oil in it, mix it round on high heat, then pour in the mix so it covers the whole base. Think crepe, think thin. Let it cook for a minute, using a knife or spatula around the circumference to get ready to flip it over. Then flip it, cook for another ~1 min, and put on your place. Add nutella or lemon and sugar or other sauces and eat. It's taste.
Ok now i'm going to go buy milk that's the reason I made this post V(^_^))
Caramel pudding/custard, serves 4-6. Probably the simplest (but not easiest) recipe I know.
Heat 125g (¼ lb) of sugar in a small non-stick pan and keep stirring until it melts and reaches a golden-brown color. Pour the caramel into the bread pan and swirl it around a little so it coats the bottom evenly.
Nagoya(ish) style okonomiyaki:
>0.5 cup flour
>3/8 cup dashi
>1/8 cup mirin
Mix to make dough.
>120g cabbage, somewhat thinly sliced
>0.5 spring onion, thinly cut
Mix together.
>3 tbsp ketchup
>1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
this one's a car camping campfire recipe. full of meat and yet none of the basic ingredients require refrigeration-- no ice chest! the tough part is sourcing the machacado but you can get it online. machacado is basically finely shredded mexican beef jerky. it contains a shit amount of salt so there's no other salt (or spices) necessary to add.
recipe is tolerant of ingredient subs when it comes to the vegetables, just make sure to add water if there's not enough liquid.
can be used for tacos or for dipping tortilla chips.

ingredients:
1/4lb machacado (carne seca de res)
3 roma tomatoes, rough chopped

How to make (20-ish) VIP QUALITY crêpes
You will need:
Melt the butter (don’t heat it too much, or the fatty part will separate). Put the molten butter, sugar, milk and eggs inside a large bowl, and mix the ingredients. Slowly, add the flour, mixing every few seconds (you should use a mixer for this). When you have added all the flour, keep mixing for a few minutes, until there are no flour globs left. Let it rest for half an hour.
Take a pan with a diameter of approximately 23 cm (9 in); heat it, then spread some butter over its whole surface.

I like to make Kraft-style mac n cheese at home with my own resources. It comes out much better than Kraft, Annie's, etc. imo, and you can control my serving sizes much easier than with boxed mac n cheese. I use red lentil rotini (any pasta is fine but red lentil pasta's delicious, try it), dried cheddar cheese powder (I use whatever I can get on Amazon with government gibs, usually - Hoosier Hill is good, Anthony's is bland but not bad), salt and protein powder.
Cook 1 serving of your preferred pasta. While it's cooking, mix about 14~15g of cheese powder with an equal weight of protein powder (you will need a scale.) 1 or 2 grams of table salt depending on your taste. Add a little bit of filtered water and stir it up into a paste - a little water goes a long way, but I've never bothered to measure how much I use. If the mixture's thick but well-mixed, that's about what you should aim for, but if it's a little thin it won't hurt anything.
Once the pasta's done, drain it, turn off your stove, return pasta to pot and stir in the cheese sauce. Be careful about applying further heat to it, because heat can ruin the protein powder.
Another easy recipe I love making is carnitas. If you have a slow cooker, just take a fatty piece of pork, rub it down with your choice of seasonings, and throw that shit in the slow cooker for 8-12 hours depending on the weight of the pork. If you take it out when it's shreddable, it's almost impossible to screw up. After that just shred the pork and broil it until it's crispy enough for your liking. I like to make tacos with guacamole, lime juice, sour cream and green onions.
Recipes without photos of result feel so wasteful.

1. Use an anime profile picture on every internet account you have access to.
2. Change your internet account names to something Japanese-like. If you don't feel like copying random Japenese text, simply add -kun to the end of your name.
3. Keep a text file on you at all times containing kawaii emoticons. If you lose your text file you can always resort to simple emoticons like uwu.
4. Always periodically say uwu and other related kawaii sentences on your internet accounts. Do this even if you interrupt someone.
5. Make yourself only interested to Japanese women. If you are gay (you probably are) then only be interested in Japanese men.
6. Start purchasing random crap from Japan. Be sure to have more items from Japan than your own country where you reside.
7. Always praise and worship anything Japanese. If you think your peers (if you have any to begin with) have forgotten about how good Japan was, be sure to remind them again!
8. Always replace more activities with the Japanese alternatives. If you liked watching tv or movies, then only watch Japanese produced tv or movies.
