The New MakerBot Replicator Might Just Change Your World

The New MakerBot Replicator Might Just Change Your World | Machinimania | Scoop.it
Take the subway to an otherwise undistinguished part of Third Avenue in Brooklyn. Knock on the door. Wait for some stylishly disheveled young man to open it and let you in.

 

Very interesting article with a lot of information. If you have any interest in the future and in the subject you want to read this and see the pictures. Be avared there is 3 pages. 

Click abowe and take a step in to the future ;-)

@safegaard

 

"Unlike the jerry-built contraptions of the past, the Replicator 2s are sleek, metal, and stylish: MakerBot CEO Bre Pettis likens the design to “Darth Vader driving Knight Rider’s KITT car while being airlifted by a Nighthawk spy plane.” There is also the lighting. Oh, the lighting. “LEDs are part of our core values as a company,” Pettis jokes. The new machine will glow in any hue—”to match the color of your couch,” he says, “or like something in the movie Tron.”

You’ve heard of 3-D printers, but you probably don’t own one yet. Pettis thinks the Replicator 2 will change that."

Sketchtravel - The original book will be auctioned to benefit an international charity. | Machinimania | Scoop.it
Sketchtravel is the name of an artistic experience initiated independently by illustrators Daisuke Tsutsumi (Japan) and Gerald Guerlais (France).

 

THE SKETCHTRAVELis a unique international charity art project.
This red sketchbook was passed from one artist's hand to another like an Olympic torch in an artistic relay through 12 countries over 4 and half years.

This traveling museum contains the personal visions of 71 exceptional illustrators, animators and comic book artists, including artists such as Bill Plympton, James Jean, Rebecca Dautremer, Glen Keane, Frederick Back, and Hayao Miyazaki. Initiated by illustrators Dice Tsutsumi (Japan) and Gerald Guerlais (France), the project will culminate in an auction of the original book in Brussels on October 17, 2011.

 

This website is very different and very creative in design and style. It's worth a visit.

Great place to visit for inspiration or just to enjoy the Awesome Artworks. They really are good.

@safegaard

 

"Grzegorz Domaradzki is an illustrator / graphic designer from Poznan, Poland. In the early years, Gabz’s personal art work revolved around rather dark themes. A conscious effort to make his work more broadly appealing and optimistic in its tone has coincided with an increasing focus on his favorite way of creating images: he initially works with pencil and/or pen, before the hand-drawn art gets perfected on his iMac. He also works with vectors, watercolor, acrylic and oil paint. Gabz majors in graphic design and enjoys playing with custom-made typography."

Making backgrounds in anime style

Making backgrounds in anime style | Machinimania | Scoop.it
Is it possible to automate the process, but without losing the warmth and life, which is inherent in hand-drawn work?

Yes, it's possible!

 

Why are backgrounds for anime so beautiful? They are full of detail, they are richly detailed and they are full of simplicity at the same time. These backgrounds always look great and provide the viewer with the right mood and atmosphere. The more backgrounds, the more different types and angles of the same background, your film becomes more alive and dynamic.

But ...

Drawing backgrounds for animation has always been a challenge. It is not just an artistic task, it is also a very time-consuming task.

Hence the question: How to speed up this process? Is it possible to automate this process, but without losing the warmth and life, which is inherent in hand-drawn work?

Yes, it's possible.

How to implement it will be discussed in our 4 video lessons.

 

 

You should check this out. My friend Igor have made some very impressive works in the past and he is known of producing top quality stuff and very easy to follow tutorials.

Have a look and learn from one of the Masters -

I'm not sure but it maybe only today you can get it for free.

 

In the earlier versions there have been some bugs but it seems they have managed to get rit of the bugs in this new version. 

 

If you do anything with Video or movie making you should check it out now when it's Free.

It's a great software.

 

"The editing is very straight forward and intuitive. You have access to many controls and you can quickly fine tune nearly every aspect of the footage. 

There's even picture in picture support! I movie can't do that."
