Can I also add, you never really figure out how to actually deal with this. (At least I haven't). I think you learn to decipher what criticism is worth it and what isn't. What I can tell you is you NEED to develop quality coaches in your lives. Coaches > Critics.
Every real leader. Every real creator. Every great spiritā¦ will face criticism.

Parkour done right!
Today I learned there's competitive tag and it actually looks somewhat entertaining

It wasn't that bad when I learned this on 4gb of ram (state of the art at the time). and 256gb of storage.
Yes, I actually rendered my first images on a 486/66 with 8MB of RAM š.

If I could get Houdini to stop crashing today that would be nice. Thanks.

Pretty crazy story but this isnāt uncommon. If you are trying to get into or maybe back into the industry this is definitely worth a read.
Personality and attitude are one of the biggest factors when it comes to hiring artists. I would rather hire a young artist with great attitude than an experienced senior who acts like he knows more than everyone else (even if he might). This is a story about the latter. 1/8.

Some more iterations in and out of the classroom. Slowed down the volume quite a bit. I will up the resolution over night.

You will find many who wonāt gatekeep advice. And I wholeheartedly agree with this.
I never paywall advice, I try my best to answer DMās and emails. If you want feedback, industry advice etc itās always gonna be free, Iāll never charge for that stuff.

This. As always fire advice.
Houdini Quick Tip #23: .Don't Gatekeep knowledge! .This is a more general tip, but it's so incredibly valuable to share knowledge, lift others up and improve together!.It's a small bubble - be nice to others :) .I go a lot more in depth about it here: .

This right here is the problem. (The post not what he said.) . Also the comments and takes in this one are š¤£. Meanwhile, there are half a dozen VFX houses contributing to this production lol!.
Guillermo del Toro refused to make āFRANKENSTEINā with too much digital effects & green screens. āI want real sets. I donāt want digital. I donāt want AI. I donāt want simulation. I want old-fashioned craftsmanship. I want people painting, building, hammering, plasteringā

It's just not possible. Try to do anything remotely heavy and you run into issues in every nook and corner. Moving on from AE as my main package was one of the better career decisions I have made.
We got a few comments on this video from unicorns who say they've never had issues with AE. I just can't believe anyone that says that. If you can say that, I think you're barely using it. š.

I am all for transmedia and stretching your IP into new markets but you donāt change the source material. The Halo original canon is incredibly dense and good. You had libraries of narratives you could have told instead we got crap that broke halos rules. What could have been.
Still crazy that a trailer from over 15 years ago has more love and respect for an IP than two seasons of a two hundred-million-dollar show made for Paramount did.
