... a new video camera!!
I'll prolly play with it for 6 months and then it'll be consigned to the bottom of the "to play with" pile through lack of time/ideas/imagination. Just like my other toys.
Unless... someone can come up with a half decent project I could work on with it.
The main reason I got it was because I've been playing with computer graphics on and off for the past 30 years. Every time I get proficient new software or a new version comes out or computers get more powerfull and can do more things and I start again at square 1.
I'm currently (re)learning Blender and this latest version does full motion/camera capture allowing you to composite GC onto video right out of the box. Here's one of the latest offerings created entirely in Blender,
Tears of Steel.
I don't expect to produce anything along those lines, maybe a 3 minute music video... who knows.. For now I just love playing with the technology.
I got
one of these. It's being delivered tomorrow.
