What's the over-under on Daniel - a dude still getting used to being an only child & who's avoiding all his responsibilities by rejoining his old band - and his dad having a healthy, positive relationship, ythink?

I'd love to see someone do a similar and extensive report for the games industry (this one on Hollywood was published last year), because...

Well.

We already know it's happening and been happening for a very, very long time. And the games industry is generally even less diverse than TV and movies.

Other reports from 2021 said 10Billion. Either way it's a lot of money.

I also did some animation keyframing for a couple of the characters' movesets. Really happy with the Black Panther keys- it's just fun to see my poses running around on screen (and he moves like a ninja)!

Got inspired by the Frieren meme challenge and made a tutorial for rotating objects in 3D! This looks at turning a common rotation "mistake" into an intentional choice.

This is something that those of y'all with 3D experience probably understand pretty well!

📚 (1/2)
Common rotation "misake" mis-alignment of the axis being rotated (without reason) a graphic of a box and a head at a straight 3/4 position, being rotated "up" but tilted off to the side with red lines notating the perspective axis that's unnecessarily being changed From heads-on, it looks like this [graphic of a head being tilted up and to one side] and not this [graphic of a head looking up] When we rotate an object, its points of perspective will move too. A graphic of a box in a perspective grid matching its perspective, with the visible green point of perspective having attention drawn to it with "pay attention to this guy!" In the second graphic, the box is rotated and all the perspective points rotated with it. This box is still fully feasible within hte original perspective grid, HOWEVER the rotation has forced all the original perspective points to shift. The formerly visible green perspective point has completely shifted off the map. See how the points changed? However! If we rotate an object along one singular axis, that perspective point WILL NOT MOVE a graphic of a box being rotated vertically, with one single axis (the one in red that's perpendicular to the rotation) remaining static and allowing us to place lines along the rotation accurately To put it plainly, if we rotate UP and ONLY UP, one of your 2-3 vanishing points will STAY IN THE SAME PLACE this makes tracking the change in perspective easier. It's easier and clearer if we keep an axis STATIC a graphic of a box with its 3 axises denoted in red, green, and blue. Below it, three boxes rotated simply, each one overlaid upon a light grey version of the original box, and each one showing the individual effect if we were to rotate the box while keeping one axis static and moving the rest. Below it, a head rotating up in perspective and showing the different made when the axis perpendicular to the action remains static.

Remember, "mistakes" are only ever a mistake if they bring you further from what you're trying to draw in that moment. Otherwise, nothing is inherently wrong.

The only goal of this is to give you another tool to diagnose what you're drawing so you can decide if it's something you want or not!
Think of it like a wheel on a stick graphic of a wheel on a stick, split into planes, and upon each plane is a face rotated in line with the perspective of the wheel. There are transparent red and blue lines showing the static red and the moving blue axises This is about as clean a rotation can get! IMPORTANT EXCEPTION! (And why it's important to think about how you're rotating) A graphic of a head turning to the left statically, with only one axis of rotation This is not a natural movement! The neck moves via muscles pulling them, so in horizontal head turns we can expect some rotation as the sternocleidomastoid (SCL) muscle contracts graphic of three heads, the one in the center facing the camera and the two on either side turned inwards towards the head in the center. The top of the turned heads is angled away, signifying some extra rotation due to the forces of the SCL which is marked in red along the neck Anyways, it's all arbitrary. It's only a "mistake" if you didn't want it! This just helps diagnose some frequent hidden issues. Rotate freely! A bunch of loose sketches of a figure looking in different directions, some in clean orientation to the body and others skewed away from the body's orientation
