Me who was talking about the guy with the bone:

Me, realizing that we were not, in fact, talking about the dog:

[spadepetz]

Name: Oreo

Breed: Mixed Spamton Breed ( Spamton and a sparkle kit from AcidTrip) (Bright color warning for the site)

Bred by: Me

Game versions: Petz 4 and Petz 5

Pronouns I use on this pet: She/They

More info and rambles under the cut!

My Oreo in P4 is actually nonbinary! We found out after an... Well... Accident, let's just say. We also checked things in hexplorer!

Not in P5, so something must've happened to glitch Oreo's gender out while using PetFlux on them. I am still new to how this works and I could've messed up the hexplorer part since it is very complicated to me and it took me a while to navigate, but I'm decently positive that I was looking at the right thing

Either way, I love her and they're very swag

[kino-rogers]

Thank you. Thank you so much.

I think part of why the thing with yt came across like that is that nobody told you Karolina is specifically a fashion historian, not someone who gives you 20 minute lectures on general history, the concept of "engage passively with this niche i don't focus on myself for the fun of it", rather than "interact with this as an academic source" is more reasonable and probably assumed by the ask (regardless of how much you actually engage with fashion history as part of your work).

I'm also not in the habit of seeking out youtube videos on the basics of my area (for the most part, such is the lot of experimental science) but videos, or posts or other non-necessarily-professional media on related specific niches that i interact only in passing with otherwise are cool (applying some critical thinking and checking if something feels off should go without saying, but that applies regardless of education level we've just been beaten over the head with it a bit more and often been given better tools)

Yet again, as I keep saying, it is fine for anyone who wants to engage that way and who likes learning things in an audiovisual format. That's not me to start with, so I don't use YouTube or Tiktok, and I personally have questions about the way that information is presented and disseminated. But seeking out fun niche extra information is again, entirely fine! I am happy for people who like doing it!

For futute reference, I am not familiar with any YouTuber, because as noted, it is personally not my thing. If people find it useful and fun, I 100% support that. What I don't like is politely giving my opinion and then being shouted at by someone who was clearly determined to read that in the worst possible light and accuse me of it. So.

Hello! I'd like to request a tarot reading, if you're willing. I used to have a friend back in school who would do a 12-card spread to give an overview for the coming year. I don't know if you have something in your repertoire that's similar, but I'm kind of just looking for a "what can I expect" type reading. The closest match on your list is a "near future" reading, but I shall bow to your professional/instinctive insight. <3

Hi there! Since these are free readings, I don't feel comfortable doing a full 12-card spread, since that's a lot of energy and work on my part. I have done a smaller predictive/what's coming up for you reading for you, though, and if you wanted to message me about negotiating for a larger/more in depth reading I'm open to that as well!

I pulled the Hermit, the Three of Pentacles, the Sun, the Queen of Swords, and the Ten of Wands. The Hermit is an indicator of self-reflection and a journey of personal growth. You might find yourself somewhat isolated, but either way I see some introspection and personal development coming up for you.

The Three of Pentacles says a lot about teamwork and collaboration, so this may refer to your professional life. It often speaks to people of varying talents coming together for a common project/goal, and it might indicate that you become peers or equals with people you previously considered more advanced/experienced than you.

The Sun! Pretty much always a positive card to get. It's about overcoming obstacles and generally happy vibes, especially in this type of context. So expect some good times to roll your way, especially if there have been barriers to that in place recently.

The last two cards, in my mind, seem like reminders rather than predictions. So keep these in mind for the futute. The Queen of Swords speaks to a state of mind; she's about having a clear mind to make analytic decisions. Intellect doesn't have to be devoid of emotion, but remember to keep your emotions in balance with your intellect when making decisions. It's also a call for independence. Other people can't make your choices for you. Finally, the Ten of Wands. This is a reminder not to burn out. You might work really hard to achieve your goals, but perhaps to your detriment. So remember that achievement is a burden you must balance with your other responsibilities and with your mental health.

Thanks for reaching out! Please feel free to ask any follow-up questions/seek clarification, and if you wanted to negotiate for a larger reading feel free to message me. Take care!

Regarding Scarabee

Hey guys, we’ve been meaning to do this for a long time, and we have realized that it hadn’t been done, so I decided I’d take it on myself real quick to correct something! Regarding Scarabee, in things we have previously written/drawn we have referenced his practice as Voodoo. After more extensive research into the practice we had realized that it was a closed practice, that none of us are a part of or know extensively about, and we didn’t want to appropriate anyone’s culture/religion for the sake of writing a character. After finding this out we decided that the core of his story and lore didn’t line up with that of Voodoo and decided that it was best to just drop that descriptor, as it was incorrect and insensitive.  I have been working slowly on a religion based off GodNaga!Beetlejuice (since I was the one who made him it’s pretty easy to just come up with something for him) so we don’t inadvertently harm the story, the character, any feelings, or offend anyone. That will be posted once it is finished, in the mean time we’ve been simply vaguely referring to it as things like “His craft, magic” etc... Sorry for the sudden strange post, I just wanted to make it clear now that we have more and more people interested in writing/drawing for them! Old works will likely still have Voodoo referenced, we can’t expect people to return to old works and change everything, but it is outdated, and no longer correct. In future content created for Scarabee, please refrain from using the terms “Voodoo” or “Hoodoo”. He will have his very own world based religion to avoid any issues in the futute. Thanks so much for your time guys.

Hi, hello.

I am asking that you tag ANYTHING that has to do with aging/time

Now, I don’t mind things like the current time or things like ‘man I gotta leave in an hour’

I do have a problem with things like years.

Please also tell other people so I don’t have to send this ask a million times. Thank you

I- I will try my best, but I'm confused? So you want me to tag things that make reference to long periods of time..? Like both past and future? Or just the futute?

[an-anxious-gay-mess]

I love and appreciate you so much

YOU KNOW WHAT NO. I NEED ANSWERS

I NEED BACKSTORY FOR THE LEGO NINJAGO MOVIE. WHY WAS THERE A ROBOT IN CLASS????? WHO RANDOMLY BUILT A ROBOT TEEN AND SENT IT TO SCHOOL?????? EXPLAIN

Relațiile in trecut: A inceput razboiul... - Morții lui hai sa ne iubim!

Sunt împușcat, zac într-un spital in Ljubljana.

-Mortii lor iau un marfar si vin la tine, hai sa trăim!

Nu ne vor părinții.

-Morții lor hai sa fugim! :))))

Nu putem ieși din țară si in țară e greu.

Morții lor hai sa ieșim fraudulos! :)))

Relatiile acum:

Nu am terminat liceul/facultatea/masteratul/doctoratul/grădinița pla mea

-auleo...trebuie sa ma aștepți.

M-am taiat la un deget sunt in spital.

-e vina ta ca te ai imbolanvit, fericirea ține doar de tine succes!

Nu cred ca te ar placea părinții mei care nici nu te cunosc.

-aa... Atunci e ok, poate pe altcineva.

Traim vremuri de pace, bani se pot face oriunde hai sa muncim, sa trăim.

-dar nu am chef... Am atatea de facut decat sa trăiesc si sa incep o relație pe bune... Mi e si cam lene, eu nu stiu sa fac nimic... Eu vreau doar sa călătoresc daca ar fi

Fraților unde pula mea, da... Unde pula mea s-a dus frumusețea aia, maturitatea, dragostea aia nebuna, decenta(nu cum am ajuns in ziua de azi in pula mea sa ne futem si pe calea ferata si sa ți zică femeia sa o mai împărți cu alții in acelasi timp sau ea sa te facă poștă cu vreo amica de a ei sa vada si aia ce barbat pun la pat are si ea si dupa sa cerem respect :)))). ) nu mai exista esență in nimic, exact ca căpșunele alea fara gust s-au ajuns relațiile din ziua de astazi. Poate folosesc greșit termenul de caministe, ca n-au greșit cu nimic fetele care stau la camin... Da sa mi bag pula câte frustrări, frici si complexe in ziua de azi in oameni. Iubiti-va in pula mea si atat! Fara alte perversiuni, aveti rusine in voi nu mai fiți boschetari si nu mai îmbătrâniți in pula mea prin facultăți pentru un salariu mizer care nici pe domeniu vostru nu e sau realizati ca nu e mare lingou de aur ci e ca la munca... Te duci de nevoie în pula mea. Inteleg ca e nevoie, da nu faceti din 5 ani de școala prioritatea vieții, ca ai note de 6 la fara frecventa si vila cu piscina facuta intre timp te face mai șmecher ca terminatii aia cu 9 sau 10. Statistic vorbind in pula mea, aia care se angajează dupa studii au medii sub 8! sau șoferi prin strainatate de bagati ca berila si dormiți prin cabina aia cine stie pe unde pt niște pizde care oricum cand nu le plimbati voi cu tigaia aia de beamveu de o numiti mașina, le plimba altul. Terminați cu frica asta de viata ca viata nu e asa periculoasa si lumea oricât de rea ar fi tot nu e destul de rea! Va comportați de parca n ati mai ras in viata asta după ce ati plans o data. Am trecut prin atâtea de mai cad jos asa din cand in cand din picioare la câte am trait sunteti nebuni? Si tot sunt vesel si privesc frumos la viitor! Nu va vindeti timpul, dragostea, sufletul pe nimic in lumea asta pentru orgolii, ambiții sau mortii voștri ce vreți voi. Iubi ti va mult in pula mea ca de iubire între oameni e nevoie, nu de autostrazi!

Ai avut un terminat care te ar fi futut și pe pod la Cernavodă si si a batut joc de tine? Da l in morții lui ca băieți exista! Ai avut o dezmembrata care te a rănit și ți a schimbat parerea despre femei? Da o in morții ei ca pizda au toate și exista femei misto care vor ceva de la viata si respecta un barbat! Nu va mai vaitati atâta ca va trece timpul prin fața ochilor nebunilor care nu realizați ce rol aveti pe pamantu asta, atâta sa munciți crezand ca asta înseamnă tot... M am saturat de muncă si mi am bagat pula in niște salarii de ma ia asa când ma gândesc. Atâta jigodism si atâta ce gândiți toti toste sentimentele in loc sa fiti perverși sa tineti un om lângă voi prin anumite metode si atasamente, oferiti i dragoste, ca nimeni nu e atat de nebun sau e in ziua de azi, sa renunte la dragoste. fiti voi ba nebuni si aruncati va in apa si vedeți voi dupa aia ce se intampla! Ce se poate intampla mai rau decat sa suferi sa ti bagi pla si sa o iei de la capăt? Rolul nostru pe pamant e armonia, e dragostea, e sa simti fluturi in stomac in pula mea, nu sa faci pula mare la un patron. Terminați cu prostiile as mai scrie da mi e ca am băut si mâine am examen si n am învățat si ghici ce...a sa lviau nebunilooor cu nota mare ahahahahaaa! Ba nu vedeti ba toti petarzii cu 4 clase ce case si masini au, si nu ma refer la aia care fura ci la aia care muncesc prin afara munca de jos... Si voi cu capu vostru de studenti/elevi eleve studente nu puteti plati o chirie ma? Ce scuza aveti ma timpu? Ba terminati cu prostiile ca stați pe un scaun si copiati 8 ore nu munciți 16 ore. Putorilor nu faceti nimic acuma cand sunteti frumosi si sanatosi si va întrețin părinții nu aveti cheltuieli încă , apai cand? Hai ca as mai scrie jur da nu se mai poate, altadata. Hai va pup si va iubesc ca asta e esența vieții dragostea! Pe alea care v ati iubit cu tot orasu nu va iubesc is beat nu prost ca daca apar prezervativle alea care se schimba la culoare după bolile venerice ati fi discoteca sa mor eu=))))

What are some advantages of having voice call sdk

Voice call API and SDK for mobile applications are more convenient and traditional too. Businesses are able to eliminate misunderstandings and disputes through the integration of  voice call SDK. Here are some top advantages of having a voice call SDK is listed below:

Cost--Effective - Making several local calls or international call is expensive. An in-app voice calling is cost effective when compared to local calls and an Internet connection is enough for it. And websites also do not need high-end maintenance. 

Added features - Integration of voice call APIs and SDKs for mobile applications provides high quality voice calling features, voice recognition, noise cancellation and more. 

High quality - some voice calling API providers offer a customized environment which enables us to deliver messages and high level communication. 

Recording service – A voice call API also comes with a recording service which can be very advantageous to record client meetings and discussion between colleagues. It is also beneficial for analysing a conversation between clients and the executives. These recordings are retrieved for futute references. 

Secure and reliable - In-app voice calling SDK creates a cohesive environment for the application users and it offers a reliable platform to communicate freely.

On Friday the 19th January we had no update on the Loki'sDiary and Friends facebook page, this is because me and my friend Alison went on a bat handling and identification course with a licensed bat trainer/handler! (Now I’m hoping to become a voluntary bat roost visitor, so this course will help massively when going to be licensed). Just incase you didn’t know, there is a lot of legislation surrounding bats. They are heavily protected animals in the uk, so the first part of our course covered this. Also to be able to attend these courses you have to be fully vaccinated against rabies as bats can be (but are very rarely) carriers of a strain of rabies known as EBLV ,which stands for European Bat Lyssavirus, and there are 2 types of strain known simply as EBLV1 and EBLV2. Since screening of bats for the disease began in 1986, over 15,000 bats have been tested and only 15 have ever come back as being infected to date. The legislation surrounding bats is also a bit of a minefield, so I’m just going to briefly state the basics before continuing! In Britain all bat species and their roosts are legally protected by both domestic and international legislation. This means you are commiting a criminal offence if you: 1. Deliberately capture, injure or kill a bat 2. Intentionally or recklessly disturb a bat in it’s roost or deliberately disturb a group of bats. 3. Damage or destroy a bat roosting place, even if it’s unoccupied at the time. 4. Possess or advertise/sell/exchange a bat (dead or alive) or any part of a bat 5. Intentionally or recklessly obstruct access to a bat roost. Again this is a very brief wording of the legislation - please refer to the full piece of legislation (found via the .gov website). Also the bats conservation trust website provides a lot of information and help with legislation, licensing advice and general advice if you do find a bat and think it needs help. I have to state that we were able to do this course as a whole because we were under the guidance of a fully licensed trainer/rehabilitator/surveyor etc. Natural England is the provider of licenses so people can survey, research, possess bats (living and dead but that’s a whole new ball game!), and so they can undertake some educational or conservation related activities - Our tutor was a license holder in many things that allowed her to teach what she did, not just anyone can run courses of this nature (but shockingly people still try!). Overall there are approximately 1300 species of bat worldwide with new ones being discovered on a regular basis. They are from the order ‘Chiroptera’ which means 'hand wing’. They are then seperated into 18 different families that are divided from 2 sub orders - mega chiroptera (fruit bats) and micro chiroptera. Approximately 70% of all bats are insectivores, and all 18 species of bat we havd in Britain are insectivores. They also account for more than a quarter of mammal species in the uk and around 20% of mammals worldwide! Because all of our native bats are insectivores they use echolocation to navigate and hunt for insects in the dark, and our smallest resident species can eat up to 3,000 insects a night. Apart from getting rid of nasty bugs/pests we don’t want like mosquito’s many species are crucial pollinators and their presence is an indicator of a healthy environment. Their futute is directly linked to our quality of life and tothe quality of the environment. Some of the surprising things we rely on bats for because of their pollination (and it’s majority/only bats in some cases because the plants are adapted to bat pollination!), include dates, vanilla, bananas, guavas, Iroko timber, Balsa wood, Sisal, Tequila (you can’t have tequila without the agave plant, and a few species of bat are this deserts plant primary pollinator!), and chewing gum. Now that we have some of the bat basics out of the way, I will briefly highlight the purposes of being on the course and what we had to learn during it. I say briefly, I could write a hell if a lot about it because of how amazing it was! Infact I have had to scrap my draft 3 times because I felt it was too long! I have covered the parts we had to learn about legislation,rabies and who/why people handle them. We also studied: anatomy, lifestyle and physiology of bats. Species identification and we had a practical session focusing on this which included: basic control, sexing, ageing, breeding status and looking at identification features. We practiced identification on living and dead specimens. We learned how best to ID each of the 18 native species of bat we have here in the uk, about how rare they are, their breeding habits, habitats etc as all these factors help towards making an accurate species ID. For example we have Soprano Pipistrelle bats and Common Pipistrelle bats which at a glance look exactly the same. But closer inspection shows that a Soprano has a more pinky coloured skin on it’s face and forearm compared to the more dark/black skin of the Common. Soprano’s also gave a distinguishable notch/slit between their nostrils and are generally found roosting in older buildinds and near water, where the commons nose is smooth and actually habitates in more modern buildings surprisingly! We were handling live specimens that were in rehabilitation for various reasons ir that were deemed unfit for release, and we had to wear gloves at all times of contact. I will simply state our learning checkpoints that we had to demonstrate with the bats to give an idea as to what we were doing. Sexing a bat: Lift the tail and control the movements if the bats feet, find and recognise genitalia, find the nipples on a female bat, recognise the testes and epididymis and/or buccal glands on males, and determine the breeding status if both sexes. Ageing a bat: Recognise differences in fur, open a wing for close examination, recognise the difference between juvenile and adult knuckles, measure a forearm, assess the wing condition (ie - mite marks, healed tears, membrane quality) and recognise breeding condition. Identify a species: Measure various body parts - especially forearm and other bone lengths, find a describe Calcar (length and shape), find the Post Calcerial Lobe (PCL) or know if it is absent, find and describe ear shape and tragus shape, know how to look at wing venation - membrane - tail - fur etc. From that description it does sound very full on and it was incredibly immersing and informative to say the least. It’s definitely an experience that has helped me push forward with pursuing certain tasks, and the educational value and material is immeasurable. We were at the Leighton Moss nature reserve in their conference room doing our studies. The reserve is definitely worth a walk around if you are interested in potentially seeing some of our rarer resident species (or if you just want a walk amongst nature). Included are photos from the session - the bats are a Soprano Pipistrelle (which was my first handling specimen and boy was he vocal! Trust me to get given a noisy one lol. He settled well though and then spent the rest os the time chilling in my hand…. awwww), Norman the Noctule bat (noctules are our biggest resident bat) Natterer’s bat and a Brandt’s bat. There is also a dead lesser horseshoe bat too. Also included are our forearm measurement charts and our certificates - names and license numbers blacked out for security purposes though! www.facebook.com/TheLokiDiary

[miomines]

i ask this bc for some reason im just thinking about tao bringing up the act in front of the archons. and being smug bc tao is the one you let drape themselves over u. the archons can barely stay in the same room without u being tense

and also thinking about u doing the act to mingyu and everyone has to watch as he visibly shuts down out of how embarrassed he is and how flustered he gets but still a small part of him(that he blames on tao) is also kind of smug bc he never really liked the archons to begin with

ok. what if i add more to this. and i call it the newlyweds act

Am cedat psihic

Da. Mi-a fost teama ca o sa fiu dependent de pastile ca sa pot sa fiu in stare sa am o activitate cerebrala buna. Mi-a fost teama ca nu am sa mai pot purta o discutie cu nimeni din cauza imposibilitatii mele de a face ceva coerent. Si acum scriu. Scriu din pricina subconstientului care imi ordona sa scriu. Schizofrenia e oribila. FOARTE oribila. Nu doresc nimanui sa ajunga in starea mea. Ma pot defini ca o persoana slaba. De ce? Pentru ca nu am fost in stare sa fac fata unei despartiri. Despartire care m-a facut sa fiu mult mai slab. M-a facut sa cedez psihic. Defapt nu despartirea. Ci tu baga-mi-as pula-n gura ta ca m-ai distrus psihic. Am ajuns la sapoca din cauza ta si pe tine te doare fix in pizda ca ti-o tragi cu altu. Sper sa ti-o tragi cu gandul la mine. Cu gandul ca o persoana atat de devotata sa iti ofere un viitor atat de deschis din punct de vedere orientativ ai distrus-o. COMPLET. zici ca nimeni nu ma va mai iubi cum ai facut-o tu? Multi prieteni de ai mei si multe multe fete se ingrijoreaza de starea mea. De ce ?? Pentru ca MA CUNOSC de cand eram cu tine si eram cu totul o alta persoană. Nimeni nu ma poate schimba in afara de tine dar nu am sa te las sa intri in viata mea doar de dragul de a face misto. Stiu cata muie mi-ai dat in timp ce erai cu mine si toata iubirea era falsa. Ei bine te-am iubit cu toata inima. Si te-am iubit cu toata inima, inca te iubesc. Foloseste-te de frumusetea ta ca sa te futi cu toti boschetarii si dupa la final cand o sa ajungi cu ultimul ratangiu sa te gandesti ca eu, candva, imi doream sa te tin ca un bibelou in brate si sa te pretuiesc mai mult decat pe mine si orice am in jurul meu. Prin ratangiu vreau sa ma refer doar la futut folosit interpretat gresit comunicare insuficienta chiar si comunicare nonverbala care la noi cel putin cred eu era existenta mereu. Chisr daca tu nu vedeai asta si imi reprosai ca nu vorbesc deloc. Mersi pentru haosul PE CARE mi l-ai creat in viata mea si faptul ca m-ai distrus. Ai reusit. M-ai adus la schizofrenie, vocea ta nu dispare deloc din capul meu. Sunt paranoic din cauza ta. Poti sa faci cat misto vrei cu gagica su prietenei tale de mine pentru ca sincer nu ma intereseaza. Sincere regrete ca m-ai aruncat la cosul de gunoi si sincere regrete pentru momentul de sclipire pe care il vei avea cand vei dori sa te intorci inapoi, vazand ca totul a fost cum am incercat sa iti explic pentru ca nici nu stiu daca m-ai ascultat. Bafta in viata, imi pare nespus de rau ca ai aruncat 3 ani jumatate pentru "caterinca" aia de care imi spuneai tu ca sa incetez. Ei bine ti-am explicat: "cat am de gand sa mai fac caterinca asta, ca o sa muncesc toata viata." Uite ca muncesc zi de zi si mi.am propus sa ajung sus. Dinaintea spuselor tale. Doar ca stii, voiam sa mai tineresc si eu putin sa ma simt si eu in plinul distractiei. Ai distrus tot ce tine de mine si nu am sa iert niciodata asta. Cum spuneai tu saptamanal cand ziceam ceva ce nu iti convenea? PA!

Prima partida de sex încă o tin minte și acum sper ca nici tu nu ai uitat

A fost la mine acasă pe 15 Februarie 2016 când ne am amorezat

A durat puțin peste 2 ore in care abia mi am dat drumu

Te ai laudat in stânga și n dreapta la x și la y cum fute Nebunu

Și au urmat n partide când era sa ne prindă mâna cuprinși de energie

Ne fugeam pe pat, in baie, pe blatul din Bucătărie , pe masa din sufragerie

Pe urma am făcut sex in vara la mare ca orice cuplu normal

In pizda in gura 69 cu muie și cu limbi recunosc nu am încercat anal

Enumerând amintirile porno mai deosebite care au fost numeroase

Prima data in public la ștrand in vestiar când ne schimbam de joarse

Futaiurie din mașina de la 18 ani in calul balan in parcate sau lanaga lac

E viața mea sexuală nu e un secret nu consider ca trebuie sa tac

Apoi am avansat in poligo la Buftea ,in pădure pe DN

Se abureli geamurile la mașina ca-n titanic vere

Îmi plăcea când făcea o muie pana mi dădeam drumu când conduceam

Era frumos la semafor cu alt sofere ne uitam unu la altu pe geam

Nu ți mai zic ca ne am furut pana și pe valea lui Stan

Expediție de 5 stele am escaladat și ne amfutut pe acel traseu montan

Când nu avem unde mergeam la mine n birou la Kogălniceanu cu USA închisă

Îmi plăcea ca mereu la sfârșit o închiderea cu inima deschisă

Mi ai spus ca sunt primul bărbat care a ajuns sa și dea drumul in gurița ta

Și pana la mine nici nu știai ce gust avea sperma

Am făcut sex pe plaja la 2 mai și apoi mi ai sputo m cort

Eram eu cu tine apa sutienul aruncat lanaga un sort

Ce vremuri m am simți atât de bine alături de tine au fost multe experiențe frumoase

Ai fost fata timida dar și o curva in aventurile nostre amoroase

Sexul din lift dintre etaje n am sa l uit

Tipai și eu dădeam in tine ca ultimul tâmpit

Te am dat cu capul de pat de nenumărate ori cred ca și acum ai cucuie

Și iubeam sa te trag de cap sa o înghiți pe toată făcea cea mai buna muie

Te am iubit din suflet și ți plăcea sa reciti in draci

Ma luai de pula in public te uitai la mine știam de ce taci

Ai avut momente când ma trezeai cu o gura de dimineața

Nu la săruturi ma refere la muie fac aluzie lumina mea din viața

Mi am dat drumul pe tine și in tine in nenumărate dați

Dacă acum e altu spune i ca esti folosită nu are rost sa minți

Te ai futut in toate pozițiile și in toate găurile pe care le ai

STI bine când o băgăm in pizda un degete in cur trebuia sa ai

Îmi sugeai degetele de la o mâna când te am futut prima data n cur

Atunci a fost Singura data când nu mi a plăcut jur

KINETIC TYPE SPECIMEN

Research

While I was looking at what kinetic type specimens can be, I was amazed at what they can all entail.  There is no set algorithm or method to creating a type specimen, except for that it shows off the font.  So if a font’s theme is comic books, the video or type specimen can not just be about comic books.  It needs to show off the font, and make people want to use it.  Some examples of video type specimens that I really liked can be seen below:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZEFNfrkv6U (Univers)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMTneoiP6ik (DIN)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_63V4UZSgk (Helvetica)

*My research about the concept of type specimens, in general, can be seen in my post about my type specimen*

Another topic that I looked into was Retro Video games, and how their movement was.  I felt that if I could bring more of an authentic feel to the characters/game objects, then it would be much more easily recognizable.  I looked at the retr games below, in orger to try to make it feel as authentic as possible,   

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4EeF_nM0iY (Pacman)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYSupJ5r2zo

I feel that with everything that I have looked at going into this project, I have enough information to create a successful kinetic type specimen.  With everything that I have learned, my eyes have been opened to the endless possibilities for kinetic type specimens.  I feel that I am now ready to move onto the next phase of this assignment with full confidence.

3/28

When I first started thinking about my Kinetic Type Specimen, I first had to think back to what I had done for my Type Specimen booklet, given the kinetic version is an animated version of the book.  So as I was sketching, I continued to keep in mind the game theme that I was trying to emulate with the book.  So looking at my first 15 storyboards, I was thinking of a design that would have a whole bunch of intermingled game references, while also showing off my font.  The other one I realized after would be about more showing the font than anything else, and therefore it really would not fit my theme as well.  However, the sketches that I made for the first set of storyboards really paved the way for my actual video.  If you look at some of the sketches, you can clearly tell where they are in the video.  I feel that this might be my best thinking process with sketching because I was really able to picture directions that I wanted to do, right from the start.

This week, I was focusing more on getting the assets altogether, and trying to get the overall feeling of the video down.  While I played with what exactly I could do for this project, I wanted to really incorporate the game references, while also making it about the font.  So, I went into my sketches, and just started digitizing my ideas.  By the end of this day, I had created all of the assets that I needed for the time.  I did the assets in illustrator and just began playing with timing in after effects.  I feel that this was a good start with my project.  I was ready to start actually putting the video together for the next class!

This week I actually had a put together video ready to show.  I feel that this first attempt really captures what I had in my sketches.  I feel that this was a good start at what I was trying to accomplish with this project.  I kept it simple, with some animations that make the video interesting to look at, and not had the feeling of it being the same scene shot differently.  I also, tried to create it so that it didn't feel like too mechanic, or boring.  The music I also felt added a nice touch to it, to make it feel more retro.  The video of my first attempt can be seen below by clicking the link:

The past two weeks, I have worked on improving speed and making the video seem more interesting.  I had noticed that there was a part with the letter X and the i’s that really didnt have anything to do with retro video games.  So I thought to myself, What can I add?  Then it dawned on me.  PACMAN!  The Pacman I used on the cover of my book helped give me that idea.  So I quickly made an animation of the character going up and down the screen, and I feel that it added a whole new level of interestingness to it.  I think its just fun to watch, and it also shows off my font.  Overall, I feel that this is my best attempt yet.

Today is the day the project is due.  I had gotten feedback about the first part feeling out of place, with the title, because it just did not fit with the theme.  So I actually got rid of that idea and put the Game On to start the video. Then, I sped up the Pacman animations, and also just tried to make the whole animation more fluid.  Another noticable difference that I made was the inclusion of text throughout the animation.  I wanted to tell the viewer about my font, and I feel that the words helped with that. Another minor change that I made from my previous attempt was that the Pacman’s movement was slow, so I sped it up to make it more fluid.  Finally, I added the name of my font in the end, in a smaller font, which is also set in my font.  I feel that it makes it feel like more of a not about what the font is called.  The previous version where the text broke apart just seemed out of place.  This way adds a new level of sophistication to it I think.

This project has taught me a lot about what I can do in After Effects without necessarily going crazy with any of the preset effects. The minor edits over the course of this past month has truly made this a portflio piece!  I am very proud of where this project ended up, and I look forward to futute projects like this!  The video of my final product can be seen below by clicking the link:
