Man!!! When I got my laser cutter a whole new world of modelbuilding opened up. I cant wait to see what you create with it! ❤🎉🎉

I really got inspired watching your model making skills on Splashback, loved how you used your Laser cutter on that and combined with scratch build and 3D printed parts. Yeah, I have some ideas now ;)

@@InCameraTV I follow both of you because I'm really hands on and both of you have inspired me about possibilities on my next film. My current one Paradox was just released to streamers and I'm seeing a world of ideas for VFXs--practical and CGI--to do on the next one. Thanks!

An excellent review. Thank you. Moving forward, would the InCamera team members be interested in sharing their education/employment backgrounds? What combination of school/work has prepared you to blur the line between artist and craftsperson with such creative / hands-on / technical / artistic work? Thanks again for all the work you put into the channel!

Many thanks for the kind comment. Yes, I think that at some point we are going to do some kind of video that explains how we ended up doing what we do, as we sometimes get asked how to get into the industry or what educational routes might be advantageous to go down.

@@midwestdocumentarycenterin1680 I wonder if in your company it’s also a hodgepodge of experience and education. I fell into special effects and through that visual effects because I was a performing mentalist and the show wanted me to perform in this show called the next Uri Geller. Now I had to suggest I had paranormal or special powers, which morally didn’t sit right with me, because in my show I always claimed I obtained the successes by manipulating the odds, setting and the parameters, plus misguiding your expectations and a little white lie here and there. But in then they asked me to coach and create some of my (mainly electronic) effects for the show. Suddenly I’m asked to consult for several shows. And I happened to work at a place where they just shot their first feature. And I spoke to the German vfx supervisor. Since I have a background in electronics and computer graphics I was interested - and thought they’d just coded the comps. He then told me about the “new” product called Nuke. And I basically sacrificed every Friday to go there and be taught compositing and digital mattepainting (which is easy if you don’t actual painting). And if you can code it in C++ which I did for solar telescope and medical MRI/CT viewers its easy to do it in anime. And after 6 months I started doing gigs in my own. Mainly commercials, then TV shows. Suddenly I get a call from that same supervisor it I could help him on this shot for a massive blockbuster. Which turned out to be the aerial shot of the capsized boat in Dunkirk. Where he needed some custom software and the technical directors of DNEG that hired him weren’t available. That led me to bid of Masters of the Skies and do what these lads here did of Dresden in practical in CGI back in 2017-took forever for that show to be streamed; and I still haven’t seen it 😂 Now I mainly go indie productions, small documentaries and thesis films. Because the money and the hours are bad in bigger productions. I earn more with better hours in doing my IT freelance jobs. So I only bid on the “cool projects”. And I was just contacted last week to do the second indie film of an American filmmaker whom I did VfX for his first film and we won best fx at NJ Film Fest as well as best film. And now the budget is 5 times almost nothing 😂 So that’s how I fell into it, by chance. And because of my EE/CS background.

I so want one! I worked with a prop house and they had access to one and it was such a bliss. So much faster than 3D printen (which in 2008 wasn’t a thing yet) and hardly any setup compared to a CNC machine. But I never dared to go for the ChinaLaser. This may change my mind.

You had the same idea as me with regard to recreating the Hades landscape, might look in to this after finishing my Dykstraflex project build.

Ooh, you lucky boy! I wish they would reach out to me for a freebie!

Not sure why manuals are very bad now... I guess companies assume that customers will be able to help eachother out or something?

I think nowadays companies know that a lot of product instructions and frequently asked questions are covered in KZread videos and online forums…even if they don’t directly generate the content themselves. But yeah, maybe it’s quite expensive to roll out quality print these days, compared to generating video and online guides. It also doesn’t help that I’m getting older and find it harder to focus on small print and images!

​@@InCameraTV I think it might be fraught as well when you can't be sure how things will work down the line with firmware and such, but how a piece of kit is built should be pretty reliable so maybe they just wanna save on that cost like you say
