  • No offense, but how is this relevant to Studio Artist?

    • It is difficult to give you a succinct answer, but most artists I know find all sources of beauty inspiring for their art. Their interests are not limited by tools of the trade. This short soundtrack is exceptionally beautiful and inspiring on many levels. And many people here use music to accompany their videos. Studio Artist is a brilliant  tool, but content still remains important. 

      I am surprised you would even ask that question. Why did you?

    • People, including myself, sometimes post things here that seem of artistic relevance, but don't necessarily have anything directly to do with Studio Artist.

      I get how you might like to have things stay on topic, i can feel that way myself sometimes about certain posts.

      I think the rule is that if what you are saying is really off topic to the particular forum thread, then it should be posted in another separate forum thread. So as not to disrupt the focused discussion going on in the original thread.

      So this post meets that criteria fine. It's a separate thread, not something off topic in the middle of another thread.

      There are personal blog features in your Studio Artist user forum member page. So maybe that's the best place for things not directly Studio Artist focused, but still of artistic relevance to people who hang out her eon the user forum.

      Max has been using that feature recently to post some really cool non-Studio Artist generated art work. So it's not directly about Studio Artist, but it has tremendous artistic relevance. And is educational about some of the roots of digital art as well.

Studio Artist is in Italy!

I was crawling the streets of Matera, Italy today and may have discovered where SA is hiding!  (see attached photo). Not meaning to make light of this great, sad mystery. But I just couldn't resist as I try to make sense of what's happening. Losing my connection to SA, Synthetik and John has been a great sadness... and if real, ends a monumental era in my creative life. love,~Victor

The Overload

"The Overload"! A video with music, from the various experiments I made in Studio Artist with stuff that I have learned in the last few days, from tips and tricks I found by scouring this site and the Synthetik site for tutorials etc. MSG!

Teenage Tongue Cult

Hi, here is the video I made back in 2010 for my song "Teenage Tongue Cult". I finally found my master folder of image sequence files for it on one of my old hard drives, and since the version I had on my Vimeo was of pretty terrible pixelated low quality visually, I re-did it yesterday. It has extensive use of Studio Artist through the whole thing. I made it by first animating the characters and scenes in Flash, against a mostly kind of muddy green background, a color I knew wasn't being used…
