    Dan continues to tunnel under the earth towards Texas. Recent reports state that witnesses may have seen him surfacing for fresh air off the coast of Florida. He immediately went back under and we don’t know whether he’s planning to go under or around the state.

    Speaking to that smart watch background, it would be cool to have a bunch of clips that are filmed at a frame rate so that the full clip is like 12 hours long so that as the day goes on the image gets more and more colorful and mixed up then when the clock strikes 12 it resets to a new fresh pattern.

      A couple of them look pretty decent, especially the one at 2:50
      But I think the others could’ve been better if the colors were preset with a pattern of sorts, arrange the colors in a way that they blend better, instead of seemingly random placements.

  • @combrains1
    @combrains1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +138

    An interesting effect on this footage would be to mask out the background in post while still rotating the footage in the same way, so in effect all you see is blobs of paint spinning toward the outer edge of the disc, but with out the nauseating rotating background.

    Should you do something like this again, perhaps you could try adding a bit of sand, rice, marbles, or other additives that will leave streaks in the paint.
    Also, check out some acrylic pour videos for colour and additive ideas: for instance, adding a bit of oil or silicone to some of the paint makes bubbles from the bottom colours as the oil pushes away the top layers as it rises.
    I hope you had some way of automatically registering the images to keep the disk stationary, too. :)
    Cheers!

    I reckon those clips would look a lot more aesthetically pleasing if they had a circular aspect ratio. I don't know if that's even possible but the boxy-ness of the original aspect ratio is too visually distracting. Truly a pleasure to watch though either way

      @@Kumquat_Lord Unless we mention the frame of reference we are in, the description doesn't make sense. Destin would have described this from the outside inertial frame of reference while I am describing from the rotating non-inertial frame of reference. So we both are correct. I should have mentioned that I was talking from the point of view of the rotating disk (That is the speciality of this video where the footage is spun at the same angular speed as the disk itself). Remember that the Coriolis force is a pseudo force that only exists in a rotating frame.
