Aww it’s like a bunny wallaby
They may not care so much about that since they don’t make any ad revenue from those subreddits
What a fascinating project. I’m of two minds about using the storyboard sketch style for the reconstructed content.
On one hand, the footage is lost, and nothing anyone does will be original, so we shouldn’t try to disguise the truth and try to mimic the real footage with the reconstructed segments. Let the original pieces shine and be honest about what has been filled in.
On the other hand, this is something where the use of deepfake technology or incredibly high quality CGI and audio recreation could be a real benefit, so the audience could be immersed in the story without being distracted by the reconstructed content.
It goes both ways. Do you do your best to show the original content and fill in with just enough to keep the story together, or do you try to truly recreate the lost content even though it will never be exactly what they originally created? Do you supplement or replace?
I tried visiting r/pics (which was recently marked NSFW in a protest of malicious compliance) and was blocked by this message. Sorry if it’s already been posted- I can’t figure out search too well.
Looks like a pretty standard Friday night ticket for NY or Chicago
You’re not the only one! That’s partly why I made that post- on Reddit I would make 1-2 posts a year and only got real traction with 1 or 2 ever. I was always too late for my comments to matter and I usually just browsed and voted.
Here, the community is smaller so each post and comment matters more, and for the most part I’ve found it a lot more welcoming. I realized that engaging more proactively was a lot more fun than on Reddit, and I thought that others would probably be thinking the same way so maybe this post would help break down that passive habit so many of us have from Reddit.
If you do the “Install App” process it actually feels like a standalone app. Not sure how it works without the App Store.
Kbin has it, so users who really want it can get their fix there while still interacting with the rest of us.
I know, it's something I have to keep reminding myself of too. If I ever find myself thinking 'man, this content feels stale,' that's also my fault and something I can fix
Agreed. I read Wool for the first time a couple weeks ago and watched the first 2 episodes just to see that storyline in live action, and was really disappointed by the lack of the reveal.
TIL goulash is essentially Beefaroni. I’d always heard of goulash but never knew what it was. Gonna need to stock up on supplies for a lazy cooking day :)
Anyone who’s interested in this should check out the book All Yesterdays, where artists have tried reimagining dinosaurs with actual muscle and fat instead of the shrink-wrapped look. They updated some classic dinosaur designs based on recent findings, such as how triceratops may have had spines/quills along its back like a porcupine.
To demonstrate how unrealistic the shrink-wrapping style is, for the second half of the book they applied that technique to known modern animals with some terrifying results, like these swans.
Check out the book Redshirts by John Scalzi. It’s a meta-satire of Star Trek about what would happen if the redshirts started noticing that anyone who goes on a mission with the captain ends up dying. One of the funniest books I’ve read. As a bonus, the audiobook is narrated by Wil Wheaton.
