    cool to hear about the fairlight transformer, that will come in handy for me as well. thanks for mentioning that!

    Oh, I have watched a lot of Casey's stuff for color grading! Forgot about him. Will definitely check out the other channel as well. Thank you!

    Hey there Tildes -- just checking in to see if any of y'all use Fusion for work or for hobby projects?

    I've been using Resolve for a while with personal projects and have used Premiere for work for years. I have basic understanding of After Effects as I've had to use it off and on for work for many years (though, it's been a while since I've had Creative Cloud subscription) and now I'm just moving everything to Final Cut for simple stuffs and Resolve for work or big projects. Hoping to move to exclusively use Resolve since I got a new M5 iPad and their iPad app seems nearly complete (feature-parity with Desktop).

    If anyone has good understanding of Fusion, how did you learn? Could you point me to specific sites/creators/etc.?

    Thanks!

    i did look into classes but worry she’d feel out of place depending on the ages of the students. i’ll look into teen classes and ask her how she’d feel about mixed students. i actually have no idea what she’d say in this case. good suggestion!

    thanks for the suggestion about taking her to a place to roam and touch stuffs! i think we’ll go to a thrift/resale shop and let her buy some stuff. she seems to like buying oversized things and either making them fit or cutting them up into new things, so far.

    If she's still into sewing by next year (16), maybe her dad and I will go in on a nicer sewing machine like that.

    I'll try and find out if she's making things from scratch. I don't think so, but I'll ask. Thank you for asking your wife and thank her for her advice!

    Hey there, I’m an uncle to a soon to be 15 year old niece who recently got into sewing and has a starter sewing machine. (Hope it’s ok that I post here!)

    I want to get her something for her birthday next weekend that has to do with sewing or similar since that’s what she’s expressed interest in. She’s never really had hobbies before but seems genuinely interested in modifying clothes and up-cycling (I think that’s the term) thrift finds.

    Can someone help me with ideas on what I could get her? She is relatively new to things and she lives in Texas (US).

    I’m ok spending up to $150. Could go higher as I’ll just split costs with her dad or grandparents if the gift is excellent.

    Update: thank you all for the thoughtful suggestions! tildes always comes through with advices/tips/ideas for me! i ended up buying Gingher 8” Fabric Scissors, Kai seam snips (detail scissors?), Clover seam ripper, 3-pack of pink Singer tape measures, and a grumpy cat tote bag. i think i’m going to take her out to the thrift store to grab some clothes she can work on too. next year if shes still into it i think me and her dad will go in on a nice sewing machine someone mentioned in the comments. thanks again everyone!

    I'm redesigning a fan website for a musician as a demo website for my portfolio. I'll offer it up to the owner of the fan site if they want it as well since it's 100% their content to begin with. It'll be fun and time consuming because it's been online since at least 1999 with updates the entire time. I just need actual content to make full websites since I'm not getting any web design work lately. I think I will use Astro and some git-based CMS so that if the current site owner wants to keep it, they won't have to learn anything new if they don't want.

    I rewatched the 2014 film The Signal for the first time since it was released (loved it the first time!) and while I still enjoyed it, there are large parts that felt like a music video, as well as nods to (mimicry of?) Zach Snyder, and video games and/or anime. I had forgotten the story for the most part and it was fun to watch. I stayed up too late finishing it and now I'm sleepy at work thinking about how Olive Cooke was asleep or in a stupor for the majority of her on-screen time lol

    Oh I'm definitely going to go see this! I've liked all of Eggers' films and even my least favorite of his (The Northman) was still quite enjoyable. I actively dislike werewolf & vampire stuffs in general and genuinely enjoyed his take on Nosferatu, so hopefully I will have a similar experience with this.

    Perhaps this has been answered elsewhere but: how do you use this theme? I'm assuming there's some sort of browser extension?
