However, if you're new at something, asking "HOW can I X?" rather than "CAN YOU make X?" will give you better results.>Can I post some of my work for critique?There is usally a critique/What-Are-You-Working-On thread, and that is where work for critique go.>Can somebody find [font]?http://www.mediafire.com/download/027xjs3ujvyqxmd/Fonts.zipalso check out your local torrent site or the font-share thread.Remember to share and not just take.

>>454176https://files.catbox.moe/55jvt8.zipI downloaded this one from somewhere a month or two back, it had a broken grave (u0060 `, would overlap onto characters typed in certain places like Windows Terminal and vscode), so I went into fontforge and edited the character (Element>Glyph Info>OT Glyph Class> Mark --> Base Glyph).this is v1.008, not the newest v1.009 (couldn't find it anywhere)
Hey /gd/, anyone knows what typeface/font this is?Thanks
Does anyone here happen to know how to make custom font from scratch? Do I need some highly specific software or can this be achieved with Affinity Designer, for example?
Good evening gents, looking for picrel.I could swear that I had seen something very similar to this before but I'm not sure.
Skolar PE and Skolar Sans PE, full family, not a ripped version.
Can I talk about video editing here? I really want to talk about it but I don't know what board really suits it, people at /tv/ just aren't interested at allNowadays, the only thing Premiere has over Davinci right now is the AI shit and communication with After, which is very useful, but Davinci is so good, is Premiere only so hegemonic because it's adobe?
>>450885I use sony vegas pro. All my motion graphics are done in After Effects, then i export and compile the full length film in sony vegas.
>>453907>NOOOOOOO YOU HAVE TO USE ADOBE SHITWEAR THAT HASN'T BEEN UPDATED SINCE 2010 >I'M A PROFESSIONAL BUT I DONT KNOW HOW TO USE CHROMA KEY ITS THE SOFTWARES FAULT AAAAAAAAAAAFusion is a 1000x better at compositing, AE is 20% better than Fusion at doing motion graphics.Learning Resolve + Fusion is the better time investment unless you want to be an Adobe slave forever. Resolve and Fusion are bound to surpass AE and Pr in every way (already the case for Pr, literally abandonware at this point)source: I actually use my brain

>tfw don't know how to extract mp4s from mkvs so I end up using Shotcut for all my webm memes because I don't want to put more effort into a 5 sec joke than I have to
>>450885I've always pirated Premiere. I'm too good at it to swap to DaVinci without it being not only painful but money loss. I really wish I had a free year and a half to get as good in it as I am with Premiere.Also, is there a torrent for the most recent Premiere with all the TTS and AI modules? It took a while for the TTS modules to show up and the only thing stopping me to pay for a subscription is my despise for Adobe as a corporation>>451878Is'nt Resolve opensource? Shit, I'm not paying them either>>453665I can afford it, but you'll catch me dead on a curb before giving money to such a filthy corporation>>453687As far as I know, proper coloring, proper audio engineering and instant multicamera. It can cut a day or two from a workweek, but I don't care because I'm never tasked nor paid to do it more than the basics. If they can do cutting I'm buying tomorrow, no matter how much hypocrisy it will show, I'd rather have more money and get a week's work done in a single day, I'll even charge extra for the "coloring" and "audio engineering"
do any of you guys draw, like regular normal drawing? post your drawing?
>>454235Cool.
>>432082thats crazy, reminds me of terriblegodlike on instagram, you do any graffiti ever?
>>449794Didn’t use any reference for that one, but there’s a lot in Pinterest. Just takes a while to train the algorithm to return useful stuff
>>448835Learn the names of the main bones and muscles. Proko yt channel is perfect and he tells it like it is. He knows the main artists and interviews them. There’s no easy way.
>>432240Mary the Anime?
Then you should know that at the current year of 2023 graphic design is pretty much dead. I was a professional gd for almost 10 years working in both studios and on my own and I can't really find a job anymore. It's not even because of AI to be honest, its because of how the industry works and how bad the corporate environment has become. There's still web design, 3D and VFX/motion design(primarily 3D too) and if you want something similar or easy to transition then chose one of those but I'm not sure for how long they will be relevant themselves because of the AI which is basically a final nail in the coffin of gd. Of course there are and will be exceptions and maybe you will get lucky to find some obscure local business that needs you, but if you are young and looking for a career in the future you should stop consider becoming a graphic designer. This profession is dead.
>>454505What's your leet code rank?
>can't find a job>want to rope>see my post from months ago itt>look up the price of ropes>look up local bridges
>>454584cant find any bridges cuz search gui is so badly designed
Fuck you mods, and your mother, for deleting my reply!

>>454618>>454619wait what the fuck? how is the domain both not squatted and also not bought?also who would even be taking screenshots of 4chan in 2003? that's the kind of thing i'd expect someone to only have kept track of if they recorded their screen for a portion of the day like in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNmzXqcNeaA
>>454620Found the screen on the web but remember taking also screens in 2005, and accedently hitting >>>/d/ instead of h in the fucking html frame
>>454466How does one even make a site like that? I've started programming a while ago but I'm nowhere near knowledgeable on things, the positioning, the image, the curves and all.It all looks so fun and elegant and also impossible to make.
Can anyone tell me which software was used to draw and create these two styles of images please ?https://twitter.com/Briun_Armstrunghttps://twitter.com/mochi_tokenThey're both cryptocurrencies but the graphics used for them look very clean and I'd like to use the same
Adobe photoshop or Illustrator.

Can someone tell me which AI software is used for this and what are prompts ?https://www.instagram.com/deadtempovisions/
>>454398I believe this is the kikeniggertron 9001 AI.
bump
>>454398Looks like midjourney, you can get similar results with dalle and stable diffusion but midjourney makes the best looking images, specially in that retro style or whatever. I don't know how midjourney prompting works but I guess you'd need to put references like "old movie monsters" "dark fantasy" or some key words related to what you want.Then you use pika lab or animatediff to animate the images you get from midjourney, then add some retro film overlays and color correction in premiere or davinci and you're done. Give it a try, OP, good luck.
Any there any alternative non-dead communities?
>>454039>>453986A bit of a long weekend but here it goes: Yeah, it is a good podcast, I did not expect graphic designers to listen to it too, but it makes sense. This is the episode in question: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4QnDG5NvYA7O5PWNfa9LpFI do not agree with everything he says, like the endgoal being less important than the process. Both are important, but if you have low self discipline and too much stars in your eyes then this is a good book to set you straight and get you into the grind with a realistic/grounded vision. >no easy answer. maybe you have ideas to share?I can only give general advice but if you want something that applies to you as an individual then I can't help you because there are too many variables/I don't know what works for you. For me it has always been a gnawing desire to express the visions I have in my head and whenever I actually manage to succeed it feels really good. But raw desire is hard to manage and highly inconsistent, that is kind of why I like that book.>but you need all these other components This is why I also lift, meditate, manage my sleep/diet and try to develop more logical/left brain skills so that my machine/hardware/masculine part of me can manage more of my artistic feminine explosions of idiocy. I like the way you put it. I am a highly irrational being (relatively speaking) so balancing more with the rational can ironically get me to express more of my visions. I hope this helps?>much creativity but crashing every bend might in total actually look like less creativity than a mediocre one that one can actually consolidate.Yeah, that is me. Burnouts often. Less now.
>>454239yeah, I too think that process AND result are important!in dynamical systems theory there is the idea of the critical point (at which phase transition occurs).liquids are highly chaotic. they are movable and entropy increases in them quickly until homogeneity is reached - at which point potential energy is lost. the result is stale/dead.crystals on the other hand are highly ordered. so much so that no piece of it can easily be moved. the rigid lattice structure won't allow for any mobility, making it inept for life as well.complexity is an emergent property that arises inbetween these two extremes:at (or close to) said critical point, from which the system is allowed to spontaneously lean into any of the two states, if it so chooses. (through control and action)you can find this idea "unity of opposites" everywhere - even in most (all?) religions and spiritual schools; yin yang, syzygy, hieros gamos,... the higher level control mechanism is constantly being confronted with having to consider the lower-level drivers (which are mulishly pulling towards one of the phase states).a multi-agent system with you at the steering wheel.>this is where we find the human predicament.Comment too long.

>>454246That answer is more scientific/esoteric than expected, but appreciated. I will ponder about how to make this meta POV of yours connect to concrete actions.

I found this brand of liquorice from Finland. I like the use of simple shapes and bright colours. Can you guys find anything else like this?
>>454565Yeah, it's literally characteristic Finnish design, one of the main influences that made it popular in the mid- late 20th century was Marimekko, which is most likely what that flower graphic is a nod to.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MarimekkoOften lumped in with Scandanavian/ Nordic design in general, but that packaging screamed Finnish without even reading your description.Very colorful, simple stylized forms with geometric elements
>>454578Note the third pattern up from the bottom
>>454565Better view of an earlier example
>>454565It’s ripping off the Montblanc logo
Anybody knows how the Monotype app works and what it actually does?Long story short, one of my clients has recently required that I switch to using the app instead of providing the fonts for projects directly. The thing is I definitely have some fonts with missing licenses on my PC so the last thing Id want is some big fuckoff corporate app snooping around my files and potentially bricking my entire font library.Any insight on this is welcome!
also fuck em!>HGGC Explores $4 Billion Sale of Typeface Firm Monotype>Monotype, which was taken private by HGGC in a $825 million deal four years ago, will be pitched to industry players and other private equity firms, according to the people. The company generates annual earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of more than $200 million, they said.
Use a virtual machine.
>>454552>The thing is I definitely have some fonts with missing licenses on my PC so the last thing Id want is some big fuckoff corporate app snooping around my files and potentially bricking my entire font library.It can't brick your library. It can phone home and if you have your info tied to the account, they will know where to knock.
why would they care about a bunch of fonts that they arent related to and arent used in any way to gnerate income or in any projects
we are slowly healing

>>448845>Alegriaizedin english doc
>>454517alegria is one (of many) names for the widely used illustration style that you associate with tech companies.you can find the wiki article under its more widely known name 'memphis':https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_Memphispeople here have a tradition of equating this style with political believes they themselves do not identify with, which keeps them stuck in a perpetual cycle of unintelligently ranting against it.it is the careworn midwit version of a political statement, "disguised" as an artistic/cultural criticism (...or sth. I am not even sure what it is supposed to be). sure, you *could* have interesting conversations about artistic characteristics of that style or the anthropological context it is coming from. but from experience this forum is not the right place to do so in a productive/insightful manner
>>452005It's better but it still looks like a gas station logo. I don't care how much people muh fat people the old design, it was comfy and futuristic and represented the last time I held a naive hope for the future.
