Why isn't Moria's race more popular? It isn't due to lack of effort and quality. ( https://odysee.com/@blenderdumbass:f/effort-doesnt-equal-views:2 )

It's an admirable effort and better than what I'm capable of at my current skill level, but there are various glaring issues I can see from a quick look at the film.

The director would probably have gotten a bigger and more positive reception if he focused on making a shorter film of higher quality as opposed to an almost 30 minute long film which doesn't look or sound that great.

Just because someone has the talent to make something like that doesn't mean they know absolute shit about marketing. This is usually the fallacy of being an artist and I've seen it a billion times over.

Most artists suck fucking dick at promotion and marketing their work and putting in effort to promote their shit to the masses. There are some dumbasses that still believe in the whole "selling out" theory and thus, never will make it anywhere to begin with. There's also a bunch of dumbfucks that produce merch and promotional items before even having the product to begin with.

Just because that person has posted their movie on 8 different platforms doesn't mean that they have put in the amount of effort it takes to promote it. I've never heard of the person you're talking about until this very post. So congrats, you've exposed one more person to the film but that doesn't mean shit compared to the networks and social medias they need to promote themselves every single day with.

Movie sucks plain simple, zero feeling of accomplishment or failure. Music doesn’t feel like it’s there or any SFX becomes meaningful. Character models are awful and should redone. The world is fine but the cars and textures are garbage. Animation is terrible and should be set an example on why you study animation and work yourself towards fluid dynamics, not lame excuses for rushing to make a movie. Not even a movie, it’s 30 mins long so an episode is better name.

I do not want to hear how “the blender community helps each other” when you can’t help this guy.

Your video does not approach the pixar standard and thus looks like a schizo work that doesnt care. You must put tremendous amounts of work into facial rigging and not just blendshape rigs, but new techniques as well or you are going to come across really really poorly like your video.

Why the fuck would anyone post their portfolio? Would you? You're welcome to start. But to humor you, I'll post something that I haven't posted anywhere simply because I thought it was shit. Or at least, it wasn't up to my standards. Though that probably sounds a bit like a cop-out and I'm making excuses for it.
Posting as catbox because all the webms I've tried to make are too fucking big.
https://files.catbox.moe/0rz3sq.webm
Then again, since we're at odds, anything I do post will be ripped to shreds and nitpicked to death, which really won't prove anyone's point. PYW is a lazy as fuck rebuttal and is the equivalent of "if you don't like it, don't watch it."

In any case, I'm not going to pretend like my webm is top tier or even good (there's a reason I didn't post it), but I'd like to think there's at least some semblance of competence, and self-awareness that went into it that the OP video clearly doesn't show. OP vid looks the way it does because the dude has no self awareness to know what looks like shit. He doesn't look at those vaguely human blobs and thinks to himself "these look bad, I should try again or learn a bit more about modelling/anatomy", he thinks to himself "this looks great!".
I think what I'm trying to explain is the concept of "taste", but not in the sense that someone has good taste in movies or art genres, but like a good artistic sense to know when something they're working on looks wrong or off. The OP vid dude just doesn't have it.
That's why his vid looks and sounds the way it does. And why anyone with any sense won't sit through the video long enough to count as a view.

>>968182
> He doesn't look at those vaguely human blobs and thinks to himself "these look bad, I should try again or learn a bit more about modelling/anatomy",

I did 2 animated films each took about 3 years to make. The first time the characters were way worse. So when I did add things like teeth and higher quality textures I felt an immense improvement.

But that doesn't mean that I felt good about the characters. To the contrary, I knew that they are not very good. It was just the best I could do at the moment. And the movie had to be done. The fact that those were an improvement from the last time ( and not just a little improvement ) made me rationalize that choice as being good.

Almost immediately I knew that I need to know human anatomy better. When I tried for a few times to make them walk I was reminded of it. When the shots were focusing on their hands I was reminded of it. I knew very well how shitty the characters in particular are.

Since I finished the film I made a few poster images. Tried my best to make those look nice. And for that I made the light a lot more dramatic than in the movie. There was only one part in the whole film where I used "artificial" light to try and enhance the visuals. But in the city and the the racetrack the light that the location itself produced felt enough for me.

I know now, since I made the posters that I could do light better. I know since I used the rigs for years that I can do rigs better. I know now that I can do everything better. But I don't want to be George Lucas. The movie is done and it's the way it looks. The characters were done when I started animating. And that's the way they looked. I made peace with that fact and continued working. And now it's out there.

I have a feature length movie script. But I know the things I need to improve before that.

I want to tell stories. Short films are inherently restrictive with the stories that I can tell, since they are short. Both short films that I made are about a half an hour long each. Because this is the most bare bones minimalistic stories that I could come up with.

I have a 2 minute short, but it was a VFX test that ended up getting a story so I could focus on it.

Yeah the concept was never strong to begin with (all I was given for a prompt was "just make my car do some cool drifts"). I don't want to use time crunch/deadline as an excuse, since I've done more with less time, but it was supposed to be a little birthday gift for a friend so I didn't have gobs of time to put into it.
It was one of those projects where it just wasn't shaping up, and you're too far into it to start from scratch so you hope it starts coming together, but it ultimately just doesn't and it becomes a bit of a slog to work on. That's part of the reason I just didn't bother to try and polish (to fix shit like clipping wheels) it to make it worthwhile to post. Once I was done with it, I just wanted to wipe my hands of it and move to something else.

I watched it. Story was good enough. Props and environments were good enough. Character models, animations and voice acting were extremely low quality. The only thing that the viewer cares about is the end result - they won't give you pity points. You might've achieved a fairly good children's movie if you hired someone to make you better character models, and invested the time saved from that into learning how to animate properly. You probably could've found voice actors who can speak English if you looked around. Worst case, you could've hired them from somewhere. I get that 100% free open source is a theme with this movie's production, but quality isn't always free and open source.

I'm looking at it like this. Do you know who videos or social media posts of people showing their art, say from 10 years ago, and then from now. And the video is like an evolution of the artist.

My first film "I'm Not Even Human" is total shit.
This film "Moria's Race" is a bit better shit.
Next film whatever it will be, even better shit.

And so by the end of my life I could post a social media post showing the evolution of the art. It will take a long time. But I will get there, maybe. Maybe I will never get there. Maybe it will take too long of a time. Maybe I will be crushed by a rocket from gaza tomorrow. And all those plans will be immediately over. But I will try.

> you could've hired them from somewhere.

1. I'm nearly homeless from how poor I am.
2. I will not learn if I will give somebody else to do it. I gave another person to voice the characters just because I didn't know any way that I could make those myself believably. In "I'm Not Even Human" there is one shot where a child says one line. I did that one line myself and took a lot of trickery to pull it off. For example the character is mute and doesn't have working vocal chords. So he basically speaks only in undertone. Exhaling the phrase, so to speak. Which made it possible for a grown man to make this sound.

I want it to be a guy on a wheelchair with a place to stick a balloon of compress air. So you can collect those balloons and blow them up to jump once. And so you would have limited amount of jumps and therefor the levels would be interesting to solve as puzzles.

Patreon is proprietary and requires running proprietary software so use it. Both for me and for those who want to pay me. Librepay is better but it is still using a proprietary service for the money transfers.

The closest thing I saw to what I may be able to do is the store of FSF which has a custom Free Software javascript for payment processes.

Also I can try selling the movie for cash. I could sell SD cards or even disks with. There is Free Software to make Blu Rays. I think I can burn them on demand.

But then there is the whole aspect of taxation and registering a business that I have no clue about. And then there is a possibility that nobody will ever buy anything.

So, first of all...You're acting as if you have an amazing product in the first place. You haven't even begun to produce anything of value, and even though you are thinking of distribution; you have nothing to show off and impress people with. You need to start somewhere simple. That means using social media, promotion, spending a little bit of money to promote. You absolutely need to find a way to get your stuff out there to the masses. Your shit isn't anything special. If it was, people would be throwing money at you and giving you big deals but no one is.

Second, you need to be realistic about even capitalism/acceptance of copyright stuff. What if someone did they exact same thing as your material but copyrighted it. They would get priority in court. It would look like you tried to rip them off. Suck it up and pay the few bucks it takes to actually claim your work. Be proud of your stuff. Not everything needs to be free/common claims shit.

Stop with the craziness, you still haven’t gotten the hang of making movies in B ter style and you can’t keep destroying yourself with those god awful decisions. Actually learn how cinema works because if you going to make a movie, people expect a movie and not a 30 minute video. Not just movie aspect but the entire industry of cinema from lighting, storyboard production, camera, post production, etc, is really needed for you.

This also includes your artistic ability because you need to know 3D. Blender will never be the place to get better, you follow and used all methods taught by others who themselves are completely wrong about 3D. The concept of 3D or CGI isn’t the art looks or the software, the ability to create in a 3rd plane of existence is something 2D can never achieve. If such concept is weird to you then you aren’t ready to make the movie or any kind of art.

My recommendation, stop with the Linux master race mindset. No matter how hard you try, you’ll never get anything done with Linux only cage.

Abandoned Blender and learn from another software. Wings3D is your best option for Linux OS or anything that isn’t Blender because you need to learn how real art is created and not cheat with plugins or alternative methods.

Just setup your own website it cost almost nothing if you self host and open during your free time. Just a simple text website is all you need and a real trustworthy donation website. There’s nothing getting around it, you need to obey the laws but if you still want anonymous money then bitcoin will be the go to.

Lastly, learn from a book or anything but YouTubers. Those so called gurus or experts are scammers. The donut model was invented before he even was born. Those gamedev experts can’t build working games without plugins. All scams to help them get profitable. A book is done by experts and designed to get the reader into certain things, learn from books.

If I overwork myself more and eat / sleep less. And if I will work more time. I can do better. I need to forget about all pleasure. I need to forget about rest. And I need to forget about life in general. I need that my life will be consisting of one thing and one thing only. Improving myself.

Just typing it made me feel how utterly unrealistic it sounds. Even if I could defeat every ounce of laziness I would get tired. I would just get overwhelmed and die one day while animating. I will need to defeat hunger, fatigue, not having motivation, not having desire to do anything. And all for a slightly better movie.

I know that I don't know human anatomy that well. My rigs are falling apart when the characters start to walk. And faces look like I barfed them. Perhaps I can attack the human anatomy. And obsess with it the way I like to obsess with things. And then I could do a movie where people look a little bit better.

I said stop it, unlike you I knew real deadlines in the movie industry where filming would start at 5 am end at 7pm. The joys of eating your own lunch or steady working through your day isn’t enough. What you going to do is horrifying with inexperience in dealing with your body. Heck, you think you can do better than me, i had you know i eat those mexico cookies maria for breakfast, snacks and for lunch, sandwich with very specific meat otherwise you get sick and dinner is cereal (or take out) to recover lost nutrition. Every day for me for the last 10 years.

You’ll became to hate the project more and more has time goes on. “Movie is awesome” they say but i just don’t feel the joy of the completed film because i only see mistakes. We only made it because our corporate overlords demand it.

So i say stop doing crazy things to hurt yourself. You’re still far too behind and inexperienced. Has said before, learn how things work, experiment with CGI, stop using blender and read books.

You are so dumb, do you think defultless blender exists? The main developers who made blender can’t program for shit and make certain things into default plugins. Sometimes that plugin is from another person. Whatever claims of popularity in Blender is not true, you just believe in the following of other followers.

No, the problem is the user not the software that’s broken. The user will constantly default to cheap methods and not improve at all. To learn 3D is to use it on 3rd dimensional planes, many blender users never understand this meaning and consider their feelings the better guide. It’s how you are anon, your feelings aren’t making 3D better because you feel. It’s really just bad art tape together with other community members also not knowing art.

On terms of storytelling, it doesn’t even get a F rating. The story itself just happens without conflict or problems. That’s just ignoring the many smaller issues like how the kid even drives a car in one day. Sure you can drive a car but can you do it as someone with 5 years of experience. No emotions on characters, the kids stole the car and they aren’t feeling happy or rebellious, no anger at adults or society at whole. The announcers aren’t giving a good play by play of the race. Any NASCAR fans will tell you that the announcers play an important role in NASCAR since you couldn’t see all the action even in camera. The ending should have them arrested for many crimes or never obtain the awards. No real message of encouragement to rebel against society or the rules. The kids won, the end, is not how you end a movie.

The “movie” should be illegal and be taken down right away. It’s a crime against literature.

There are 3 layers of antagonism in the film ( which mean there are 3 layers of conflict ) her brother who think that she is dumb. Her father that think that she is too young to drive a car. And the other racers that do not want to let her win them in a race. The story is about proving the brother wrong, proving the father wrong and wining the other drivers. The arcs are in the antagonists because those are the people who I want to change their mind.

Moria knows how to race because their family is fucking obsessed with cars. They have fucking racing simulators instead of computers. They have cars themed pajamas, cars themed beds, cars themed rug on the floor, books about cars on shelves. They have a fucking racetrack visible out of their window, they have a model of the racetrack in their living room, they have racecars in their living room. The family owns a fucking racetrack. All she did was to train for this all her god damned live. Of course she will be good.

It is not Nascar. The racetrack is designed to eliminate the problem of visibility. The viewers are on towers with view on the whole track. You don't need an announcer with this setup. Also it was needed so that Paps could fucking see where Moria is at any time in the race.

Yes, it's told in the right from the get go her brother wipes the floor with her. Basically the brother was the real goat all along and all the other drivers were just talentless hacks.

But anyways Moria is a Marie Sue she beats everyone(except her brother) WITHOUT ANY EFFORT. Audience never sees her to struggle to perfect race craft so why should we even care about Moria? She is simply just like Rey Skywalker never did anything and suudenly wields god like powers just because story demands it.
The movie is simply Moria grand theft auto and some random race.
