Highland Paranormal Society

Since it's likely we will have virtual days for the rest of this week due to water infrastructure, I'm going to do an animation tutorial live stream tonight in order to set up some virtual classes for my students.

Schools out because a water main is busted and most of the city has barely any water pressure and the water is not safe to drink. I've seen a post saying a "temporary" fix will happen by Friday. Whatever that means. No idea if schools will be out beyond today yet.

The kids are playing "apocalypse". They put on some video on YouTube to be their 'background"
Meanwhile, in real life I am hunting for drinking water because our city's water infrastructure has failed
And Amazon is planning three data centers in the area.

Have the weekend you deserve

I accidentally deleted an entire folder of a nearly finished dungeon that I was finishing up layout on. Can't find it backed up anywhere. Going to fall in a black hole now

Why yes, I do enjoy music with horns. Why do you ask?

If I wasn't locked in with adobe because of school I'd probably use Blender with its Grease Pencil tool. Open Toonz is great, it's a better version of Adobe Animate, good for frame by frame animation. If I was going to do a lot of character animation I would use Moho.

After effects. It's pretty fun

Highland Parade, the holiest of days, is this Sunday

I only catch gold beads and specialty plasters at Mardi Gras parades.

I just watched Hey Duggee for the first time and the animation and design is so inspiring. Somehow missed this show when my kids were preschool age.

I know we make a distinction between tools and generative AI. And I love how easy you can mask out backgrounds from images and videos with software, and those processes usually just happen on your computer and not through a massive data center. But even that steals something from us, the time sitting with our thoughts as we manually cut images out to recontextualize in a collage. The thousands of tiny decisions we give up to avoid tedium is a true loss on some level
