Advice Needed: Film major struggling with animation minor. Should I drop it? Or will it benefit me for the film industry? (self.Filmmakers)
submitted 2 years ago by [deleted]
Sorry if this doesn't belong here. I will move it if someone says. However, I would still enjoy input from anyone willing to give it.
I am a college student majoring in Media/Film/Media Arts. My passion is film editing and aspire to work on feature films. My minor is in computer graphics/animation... and it's HARD for me. As I'm getting more in depth with the animation classes, I've come to realize that I am pretty terrible at it. But I CAN do it. My question is, should I continue? I only have to take three more classes to complete the minor.
I ask this because it's obvious that special effects are a trending necessity for any film. Should I stick with this computer graphics minor to say, "Yes, I have experience and work in animation to show for." Would it make me stand out a little more? Do you think this will benefit me in the long run?
Thank you.
Side note: There is something about Maya that is just so hard for me. Premiere, Avid, FCP, AE, and what not are all easy/easier for me... and fun! It's the animation software that's killing me. (Maybe it's a mind set?)
[–]listyraesder 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago* (1 child)
I'm glad we in Britain don't have the major/minor system and can just concentrate on a single subject for 3 years... If you only have 3 more classes (is that 3 weeks or something?) I'd say continue with it - you might as well complete it if you're that close.
However, if Film editing's your thing, knowing Maya and other animation software isn't something you'll actually need. Sure, when you're starting out, cutting corporates and viral promos, you might find it handy one time, but in a feature film context, the editorial department and the visual effects departments are wholly separate, and are often based in different cities or even countries apart. An overall understanding of what's involved would be helpful, as editorial still has to supply the raw footage and get the VFX footage back into the film at the end, but no-one would be expecting an editor or assistant editor to know how to do it themselves. I'd spend more time looking at grading and delivery formats such as striking DCPs, delivery for broadcast, and SOUND EDITING. That's a really handy thing to know, and as editor you're going to be far more involved in these things than VFX.
VFX is a very intensive process for computing power and personnel and running costs are charged per hour, so the separation between editorial and VFX will continue for decades to come - a film can't afford its own VFX facility (which would cost millions to set up) so engages outside companies (ILM, Framestore etc) to do the specific jobs required. If you're really not enjoying it, there's nothing keeping you in the animation minor if cutting's what you want to go on to do.
It seems odd that American students can't specialise, but I suppose an editor would benefit from Literature studies, for a sense of structure...
(I don't know anything about US education system at all, so there may be academic reasons to stay. Check with your admissions dept for that stuff)
[–]Proxi_Pixel 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
We can specialize; we just have the option to select a minor. :)
Some students can even dual minor, and dual major. For some reason, they think that having more degrees = more jobs, but in reality, you're just killing yourself; especially in any Art program.
I think counselors push it on students and encourage them to do that, which I don't really agree with.
[–]chugach3dguy -1 points0 points1 point 2 years ago (0 children)
It is typically better to be awesome at a few things rather than mediocre at many things.
On one hand, my experiences tell me that it is good to have more diversity in skills these days, especially if you're trying to get in to the industry. On the other hand, if you really don't like animation and you have no desire to improve or pursue it, then find 3 other classes to take in subjects that will help you be better at what you want to do.
The kinds of jobs where you would be consistently using Maya or some 3D package most likely aren't going to also have you doing things on the production or editing side. It's a completely different niche, and if you don't like it AND are horrible at it, then I wouldn't even worry about it. If you're well versed in some kind of NLE as well as After Effects and Photoshop, then you should be okay.
Smaller businesses that would higher you typically look for someone with a more diverse skill set. But larger productions/ad agencies/production houses with more staff and an established hierarchy should be more likely to look for people to fill more specific niche positions.

Another month has gone by, so it's time to check up on how the "stimulus" bill is doing. Innocent Bystanders has updated its invaluable chart, which shows the actual unemployment rate compared with the rates projected by the Obama administration, with and without passage of the "stimulus" bill; click to enlarge:
On Thursday, Joe Biden announced that the stimulus bill is working even better than had been expected. Biden's dissociation from reality is nearly complete, but one wonders: aren't there any journalists who are capable of looking up the administration's predictions and asking Biden fact-based questions? Or is that considered too much work?

What is in Space We are a class of 4 year old Little Explorers and we want to explore and discover Space. We become familiar with Space by looking at Space books, watch videos, use the internet and see PowerPoint presentations. We start to discover Space by reading the e-book 'What Is the Solar System? Storybook' at http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forkids/home/F_Ames_What_is_the_Solar_System_Storybook.html
We read an e-book 'Korky in Space' at http://www.sunshine.co.nz/nz/kia/books/korky2/k-space.html We sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with the Teletubbies at http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/teletubbies/nurseryrhymes/twinkletwinkle/ We read another e-book 'Flying from the Sun to the Stars' at http://www.britishcouncil.org/kids-songs-space.htm
We also watch PowerPoint presentations. We look at Earth which is our planet as it is seen from Space.
Another PowerPoint presentation we enjoy is 'The Solar' system.
We talk about the shape of the planets. We identify the colours of each planet. We look at the planet that has rings around it. We count the planets from 1 to 8
We explore observation tools. We use magnifying glasses, binoculars and a telescope. The Sun and the planets are far, far away.
We discover that the Sun is a ball of fiery gases, not solid like the Earth The Sun is a source of light. We must be protected from the sun by putting on sunscreen and caps to cover our heads. The sun can harm us and make us sick. We dramatize the Sun in our school yard. We also sing Mr.Sun.
The Earth turns around and the planets go round the sun.
We discover the shape and colours of Planet Earth. We explore a globe. We discover where Malta is. We also find Poland, Spain, Scotland and Czechoslovakia on the globe. We make Earth models out of play dough
We explore the planets with picture cards from http://cse.ssl.berkeley.edu/AtHomeAstronomy/act09_imagecards.html We see big planets and small planets. We put the planets in order.
We discover numbers whilst on the topic Space. We enjoy doing the Lift Off. We count the number from 10 to 1 backwards. Wow! It is such fun imagining we are rockets and shouting Lift Off!
We make number games with coloured rockets. We put numbers in order starting from the number one. We know how to count from one to ten.
We colour big and small stars. We cut them out, glue them on thick paper and play with them. We count and sort the big and small stars.
We colour and cut rockets. We stick numbers and make into a cylinder mobile. They look very nice hanging from the ceiling.
We explore a 3 dimension jigsaw puzzle .
We make stars with yellow paint and golden glitters. We make telescopes to gaze at the stars.
We make the shape of the sun from rice cakes, cheese and finger sticks.
We bake star and planet cookies. Oh what fun and the cookies are delicious!!
Summary: Preschool children work on a thematic unit about space.

The main complaint is that he was asking for donations to fight this, and then more or less bailed on the fight. That's the only valid complaint in my opinion, then again, we don't know if and how much money was raised. It pays to be wary of donating to a legal defense fund, you can't be certain it will be spent the way you want it to be spent.
Agreed. Whether it was a good move on his part or not, it doesn't matter when it comes to the donations scenario. He implicitly collected donations to fight Sony, and then discontinued the fight. Would we do it too? Probably. But that is not the point. If I paid seeded X amount of money to you to sail across the world and then you stopped part way because the outcome looked bleak, I would all or some of my money back. Hopefully it does get passed on to the EFF.

it's assumed that he is going to donate remaining legal funds to the EFF
Assumptions are always dangerous, especially when a lot of money is involved. Will he donate all of it, some of it, of none of it? We'll likely never have anything better than his word on what he did with the money. And that has an even more damning effect on these sorts of cases in the future, since people will be much more reluctant to donate to someone else's case after this guy sold out and took the money (even if it's just some of the money, even if it's just *allegations* that he pocketed some of the money).
Well we can always hope that the EFF would share information as to whether these donation claims are factual or not down the road.

That's according to the Sophos "Dirty Dozen" report issued Thursday about the top spam-producing and relaying countries around the globe from July to September of this year. According to Sophos, the U.S. produces about one in five of all the junk mail polluting global networks. (Industry estimates are that over 90% of all e-mail is spam.)
So why does America lead in the spam race? Obvious reasons for this are that it has developed bandwidth, lots of computers that cyber-criminals (from all around the world) like to exploit to turn them into botnet-control relay points, and we have a lot of suckers, as circus kingpin P.T. Barnum used to put it, born every minute who can be fooled into doing almost anything. That would include opening attachments from anybody and anything, and ordering illegal (and potentially lethal) counterfeit pharmaceuticals right off a spam message, apparently pretty fine with a box of pills that arrives from China or elsewhere far away."

Empowering undocumented young people in their pursuit of college, career and citizenship
Life After College
A Guide for Undocumented Students
Author: Iliana Perez
Life After College: A Guide for Undocumented Students
This 73-page guide contains valuable information, tips, and resources to help undocumented students navigate life after graduation. While initially it may seem as though undocumented students have limited options upon graduating from college, this guide is intended to shed light on the possibilities that do exist. The guide has been written to be as inclusive and comprehensive as possible by including personal narratives, student testimonials and advice from experts. We hope that undocumented students and allies read this guide and feel encouraged and unafraid of the next steps.
"The guide is an inspirational and practical resource for students who are facing challenging dilemmas on how to continue in higher education or earn a living. Students can learn that real options are available and connect with supportive allies in the community like E4FC." -- Bill Ong Hing, University of San Francisco School of Law
The Life After College Guide
is excellent. It is probably the most valuable guide produced so far for undocumented students, and it is written BY undocumented students, which is wonderful. This will be an invaluable guide to undocumented students who are in high school, university, and have already graduated." -- Mark Silverman, Immigrant Legal Resource Center
The Life After College Guide
is a thorough, practical resource for undocumented students trying to navigate the complexities of earning a living, society, and immigration law. I highly recommend it." -- Stephen Yale-Loehr, Cornell Law School
ILIANA PEREZ was born in Pachuca, Hidalgo, Mexico and immigrated to the United States when she was eight years old. With the support and encouragement from her parents, family and friends, she graduated with academic and university honors from California State University, Fresno with a degree in Mathematics and minors in Economics and Business. Upon graduation, Iliana went on to pursue a Master's Degree in Global Political Economy and Finance at the New School for Social Research in New York City. She believes that every student deserves the right to an education regardless of legal status. Because of her personal and educational history, she feels committed to bringing change to immigrant communities and later to communities in Mexico. Iliana would like to embark on an academic career that will ultimately prepare her for a career in academia as a professor. Iliana is currently a first-year Ph.D. student in the department of Educational Studies at Claremont Graduate University.

Freedom of screech
I enjoyed your cartoon, "Freedom of Screech," in the Opinion Section of the Dec. 10 issue of the Mercer Island Reporter. The artist tried to include all faiths, and I appreciated the placard reading "Try Baha'i." The founder of the Baha'i Faith, Baha'u'llah, proclaimed, "The best beloved of all things in my sight is justice ... By its aid thou shalt see with thine own eyes and not through the eyes of others, and shalt know thine own knowledge and not through the knowledge of thy neighbor. Ponder this in thy heart: how it behooveth thee to be."
For many years, Baha'i students in Iran, despite high grades and test scores, have not been allowed to enroll in college unless they registered as Muslims. Now even Baha'i children are not allowed to attend elementary school. Baha'is ask institutions such as the United Nations and individuals of conscience of all faiths to speak out on their behalf. Nonviolent action and free speech, done in a calm and constructive manner, are essential for promoting and maintaining justice.
Perhaps we can all imagine carrying a "Try Justice" placard in our hearts to guide our speech and action — and help overcome the urge to screech.

Nonlinear optical imaging of lyotropic cholesteric liquid crystals
Optics Express, Vol. 18, Issue 2, pp. 1113-1121 (2010)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (338 KB)
We use nonlinear optical microscopy combining Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) microscopy and Two-Photon Excited Fluorescence (2PEF) signals to characterize collagen lyotropic liquid crystals. We show that SHG signals provide highly contrasted images of the three-dimensional texture of cholesteric patterns with submicrometer lateral resolution. Moreover, simultaneous recording of the 2PEF signal enables in situ quantitative mapping of the molecular concentration and its correlation with the observed textures. We apply this technique to the characterization of biomimetic textures obtained in concentrated collagen liquid solutions. We successfully image biologically relevant organizations that are similar to the collagen organization found as a stabilized state in compact bones.

I would highly recommend Scholastic Arts. When I retired I left boxed sets of over 24 years of magazines. My students constructed the boxes and decorated each to identify the artist. We ordered one classroom set (32) almost every year. I believe it is a great way to study artists and art history. Woody

Sharp, Andrew Martin (2010)
Ph.D. thesis, University of Birmingham.
| AbstractThis study examines the distinctly ecclesial dimensions of Orthodox thinking on Islam and Muslim-Christian encounters within the context of the modern theological renewal in the Orthodox Church over the past few decades. It shows how by building on the patristic, ecclesial, and liturgical revival over the past half-century – inspired by figures such as Afanassieff, Bulgakov, Florovsky, Lossky, Schmemann, Staniloae, and Zizioulas – Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, Metropolitan Georges (Khodr), Dr. Tarek Mitri, Archbishop Anastasios (Yannoulatos), and others have reframed the discussion within the Church, and within ecumenical circles, about Christian-Muslim relations. By creatively applying traditional concepts of christology and pneumatology, they have posited Islam as part of the divine economy for salvation and have publicly endorsed (and directly participated in) Muslim-Christian dialogue. The study surveys these interactions between Orthodox Christians and Muslims and analyzes their significance in the broader context of their collective and independent attempts to redefine their identity during the years 1975-2008. The study concludes that it is now possible to speak of an Orthodox 'position' on Islam and relations with Muslims. It also suggests that in their interactions with each other, Orthodox Christians and Muslim are putting forth new paradigms for addressing some of the world's pressing concerns. |

Title: | Deconvolving LADAR Images Of Bar Codes for Construction Site Object Recognition |
Published: | October 01, 2003 |
Abstract: | This report discusses a general approach to reconstructing ground truth intensity images of bar codes that have been distorted by LADAR optics. The first part of this report describes the experimental data collection of several bar code images along with experimentally obtained estimates of the LADAR beam size and configuration at various distances from the source. Mathematical models of the beam size and configuration were developed and were applied through a convolution process to a simulated set of bar code images similar to the experiment. This was done in order to estimate beam spread models (beam spread models are unique to each specific LADAR) to be used in a deconvolution process to reconstruct the original bar code images from the distorted images. In the convolution process a distorted image in vector form g is associated with a ground truth image f and each element of g is computed as a weighted average of elements of f that are neighbors to that associated element. The deconcolution process form Hf = g where H is a large sparse matrix that is made up of elements from the beam spread function. The results of applying the several beam spread models to deconvolving the bar code images are given. Deconvolution of data measured at 10 m was more successful than that for 20 m or 40 m. The appendices include more detailed discussion of the least squares algorithm used and sample programs used during the various phases of the analysis. |

Prof Joanna Bourke, author of a book titled Rape, A History from 1860 to the Present (2007), said in Dunedin this week that rape and other sexual assaults were issues for men and society, not just for women.
Her optimism came partly from her perspective as an historian: ''I can see that things have changed and ... they can change again.''
Born in Blenheim, New Zealand, she is now based in Birbeck College, at the University of London.
She was in Dunedin this week to give the annual Michael King Memorial Lecture, on ''Sexual Violence in the Past and Today''.
She said conviction rates for rape and other sexual assault cases prosecuted in British courts had fallen from about 33% in the 1970s to about 5% this decade.
The recent equivalent New Zealand figure was about 9%. She said in the UK today, and in New Zealand only a small percentage of rapes reported to the police later ended in a conviction.
''Given the huge proportion of rapes that are never even reported in the first place, this is damning evidence that something is terribly wrong.''
Having interviews with sexual assault victims conducted by police officers with specialised training had been '' a really good step'', and there was scope for further improvements.
Many myths and double standards involving rape also needed to be exposed, including the way women who had been drinking were judged much more harshly than male drinkers, if a sexual assault subsequently took place.
And Prof Bourke (47) urged much more public awareness and open discussion about the issues involved.
Men had a major role to play in such discussions, and should not fear saying something ''politically incorrect''.
It was also crucial that funding was maintained for Rape Crisis centres and other key networks, including those working with men.`It's something we need to keep the pressure on with our governments.''
And more people needed to become aware of sexual violence.
''A lot of people don't understand.''
Such assaults had happened to ''a lot of people'' over the years.
''It just damages all of our lives.''

The most expensive Lincoln penny in history was a 1943 copper-alloy cent that was sold for $US1.7 million in a 1996 auction. Nothing compared to this one, though. This penny is going be put on Mars for a nice $US2.5 billion. Not bad!
Of course, those $US2.5 billion are going to put a lot more stuff on Mars than just the penny. You know, like the best interplanetary robotic rover ever created by humankind.
In fact, if you take into account the total weight of Curiosity, the total cost of the penny is not that high: its 2.5 grams would only cost about $US7000. But being the first and only penny on Mars — and any other place outside Earth, as far as I know — I'm sure it would fetch a lot more than $US1.7 million at any auction.
The penny is part of the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) camera's calibration target. The calibration target is attached to a shoulder joint of the arm that holds the camera, and contains red, green and blue colour chips, different white point chips, a "metric standardised bar graphic and a stair-step pattern for depth calibration".
The penny sits between the last two. Usually, Earth geologists use a penny to know the scale in their photographs. But why include it when you already have an accurate metric scale there? According to MAHLI Principal Investigator Ken Edgett — at Malin Space Science Systems, San Diego — it's "a tip of the hat to geologists' informal practice of placing a coin or other object of known scale in their photographs."
It was Edgett himself who bought this very special penny with his own money, just to put it on the rover. It is a 1909 "VDB" cent, "from the first year Lincoln pennies were minted, the centennial of Abraham Lincoln's birth, with the VDB initials of the coin's designer — Victor David Brenner — on the reverse." [NASA]

1 This made Jonah very indignant; he fell into a rage.
2 He prayed to Yahweh and said, 'Please, Yahweh, isn't this what I said would happen when I was still in my own country? That was why I first tried to flee to Tarshish, since I knew you were a tender, compassionate God, slow to anger, rich in faithful love, who relents about inflicting disaster.
3 So now, Yahweh, please take my life, for I might as well be dead as go on living.'
4 Yahweh replied, 'Are you right to be angry?'
5 Jonah then left the city and sat down to the east of the city. There he made himself a shelter and sat under it in the shade, to see what would happen to the city.
6 Yahweh God then ordained that a castor-oil plant should grow up over Jonah to give shade for his head and soothe his ill-humour; Jonah was delighted with the castor-oil plant.
7 But at dawn the next day, God ordained that a worm should attack the castor-oil plant -- and it withered.
8 Next, when the sun rose, God ordained that there should be a scorching east wind; the sun beat down so hard on Jonah's head that he was overcome and begged for death, saying, 'I might as well be dead as go on living.'
9 God said to Jonah, 'Are you right to be angry about the castor-oil plant?' He replied, 'I have every right to be angry, mortally angry!'
10 Yahweh replied, 'You are concerned for the castor-oil plant which has not cost you any effort and which you did not grow, which came up in a night and has perished in a night.
11 So why should I not be concerned for Nineveh, the great city, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left, to say nothing of all the animals?'
3 take pity on me, Lord, for to you I cry all the day.
4 Fill your servant's heart with joy, Lord, for to you I raise up my heart.
5 Lord, you are kind and forgiving, rich in faithful love for all who call upon you.
6 Yahweh, hear my prayer, listen to the sound of my pleading.
9 All nations will come and adore you, Lord, and give glory to your name.
10 For you are great and do marvellous deeds, you, God, and none other.
1 Now it happened that he was in a certain place praying, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said, 'Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.'
2 He said to them, 'When you pray, this is what to say: Father, may your name be held holy, your kingdom come;
3 give us each day our daily bread, and forgive us our sins,
4 for we ourselves forgive each one who is in debt to us. And do not put us to the test.'

Like its predecessor, the Jerusalem Bible, the New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) version is translated "directly from the Hebrew, Greek or Aramaic." The 1973 French translation, the Bible de Jerusalem, is followed only "where the text admits to more than one interpretation."

Even as the shutdown continued in the Darjeeling hills following the call for an indefinite protest programme by the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM), its leadership clarified on Friday that the agitation should not be construed as a "bandh" as was being perceived by some.
What is underway is "ghar bahira janata" (a call to the people to hit the streets), a programme to protest the arrests of leader of the GJM as well as Gorkhaland supporters by the police out to crush the movement for Statehood, said GJM president Bimal Gurung.
"The GJM leadership affirms its full respect for the recent observations of the Calcutta High Court on the developments in the Darjeeling hills and asserts that there is no diktat issued for the people," he posted in a social networking site.
The High Court had observed earlier this month that the "janata curfew" that had been called at that time by the GJM was "a part of an illegal bandh."
"The [on-going] agitation is only an expression of the free will of the people… The GJM's supporters will continue to exercise their freedom of expression, speech and their right to assemble peacefully without arms to press for their demand for Gorkhaland with the 'ghar bahira janata'," Mr. Gurung said. Reiterating that "the sentiments of the hill people is not a law and order problem but a political problem", he pointed out that "it is wrong to think that by arresting 721 Morcha leaders people's aspirations for Gorkhaland will be wiped out."
Those in judicial custody would go for an indefinite hunger strike, Mr. Gurung added.

If you have a hiatal hernia, you probably experience the horrible burning in your chest associated with heartburn and acid reflux after most meals. I'd like to offer a simple, natural solution for your mealtime discomfort.
But first, a quick explanation of what's happening: Your diaphragm separates the organs in your chest from your stomach and other digestive organs. But in the case of a hiatal hernia, your stomach has breached the divide, worming its way through an enlarged hole at the back of the diaphragm that allows the esophagus to go from the throat to the stomach. The only solution is to get your stomach out of the hole. Here's how you do it without surgery and in a quick morning exercise:
- Drink a glass of room temperature or slightly warm water when you get out of bed in the morning. (Skip the coffee, tea, juice, and cold water—just drink warm water.)
- While standing, bring your arms straight out from your sides and bend your elbows so your hands are touching your chest.
- Stand up on your toes as high as possible and drop down. You should get a pretty good jolt. Drop down like this 10 times continuously.
- Then, while standing with your arms up in the air, breathe short quick breaths with your mouth open for about 15 seconds. That's it.
You are essentially forcing your stomach out of the hole. The warm water acts as a weight in the stomach, while relaxing the stomach muscles as well. The breathing at the end helps close the diaphragm and the hole where your stomach was lodged.
As long as you have a hiatal hernia, this is an exercise you'll have to do every morning to put an end to you acid reflux problems. But, there are other natural solutions to more minor cases of heartburn and acid reflux like eating ginger or licorice.

Based on the best selling novel by Philippa Gregory, "The Other Boleyn Girl" is an engrossing and sensual tale of intrigue, romance, and betrayal set against the backdrop of a defining moment in history. Two sisters, Anne (Natalie Portman) and Mary (Scarlett Johansson) Boleyn, are driven by their ambitious father and uncle to advance the family's power and status by courting the affections of the King of England (Eric Bana). Leaving behind the simplicity of country life, the girls are thrust into the dangerous and thrilling world of court life -- and what began as a bid to help their family develops into a ruthless rivalry between Anne and Mary for the love of the king. Initially, Mary wins King Henry's favor and becomes his mistress, bearing him an illegitimate child. But Anne, clever, conniving, and fearless, edges aside both her sister and Henry's wife, Queen Katherine of Aragon, in her relentless pursuit of the king. Despite Mary's genuine feelings for Henry, her sister Anne has her sights set on the ultimate prize; Anne will not stop until she is Queen of England. As the Boleyn girls battle for the love of a king -- one driven by ambition, the other by true affection -- England is torn apart. Despite the dramatic consequences, the Boleyn girls ultimately find strength and loyalty in each other, and they remain forever connected by their bond as sisters.
