Variation

Playing on the beach

Variation in painting means change of phase.、Try changing the aspect (appearance/shape)。There was a watercolor painting class where this month's theme was "expression of water (transparency)".、I also drew a few things as a demo production.。
The first point is close to the actual situation、2The point is to put the child there.、The aim was to express the coolness of the riverside in an experiential manner.。3The goal is to extend the phase change to the seashore instead of the river.、I envisioned the feeling of playing on the beach in an urban setting.。While drawing、I gradually remember the difference in the strength of light rays between rivers and the sea.。Even at this age, I still remember the feelings I had when I was a child.。
This kind of attempt is something that many people actually do.、It's a great way to improve your compositional skills in painting.、I think there are probably an overwhelming number of people who don't bother to do it.。It is not enough to just draw one piece with one motif.、You will have to constantly search for motifs.。Once upon a time、to the classroom、There was always someone who drew themselves on the screen.、Easy to imagine variations、I thought it was a good idea。

VR

"Corporal Vodgorkov resumed the fight with Sergeant Vladimir.。We've never met, but we don't even know each other's faces.、hobbies and、I knew a certain level of living conditions.。The distance between each other is 100km。Of course, it's not within reach of guns, etc.、See the back of your partner who is rapidly changing positions.、He chased after it like a dog that had caught the scent of prey.。
Corporal Vodgorkov just turned 80 years old.。Sergeant Vladimir already passed away several years ago.。But、Both are now 24 years old。Both so as not to be detected by drones in the sky、Choose a location under a tree with lots of leaves if possible.、trot like a mouse while bending over。」

``Corporal Vodgorkov was still connected to many medical tubes in his hospital bed.、His finger is on a button like a game console.。Vladimir is、Brandishing his bald head and white beard,、He happily talks about his memories from when he was 24 years old on the monitor.。Behind him, on the monitor, a young man is tapping away at a keyboard.'' - Is this virtual? no、When someone pulls the trigger (presses a button), the bullet actually fires.、So either、Or someone else will die - Is this what would happen if we fought a war in VR?。

I wrote that if we go to war with VR...、1990in the Gulf War of、I've already seen war in VR。The tank being destroyed on the monitor is a virtual image, but、The tank was actually destroyed a few kilometers away.、A young soldier was torn to death inside.。The war currently taking place in Ukraine is already a VR war itself.。
*VR stands for “Virtual Reality / It is translated as “virtual reality”.、The word “virtual” has more meaning than “virtual.”、Rather, it has a strong meaning of "realistic and substantial"、“Even if it doesn’t look like it,、This is the real thing, right? ” is shown.。

I wonder what the coronavirus looks like、cannot be seen with physiological vision。But、Far from knowing what it looks like、I don't even doubt it。A Shiretoko sightseeing boat can be seen lying on the ocean floor.、I don't doubt that it's reality。Since the advent of cameras、I know that I can only do what I can't do, but I'm frustrated、Actually, since humans created "paintings"、It even seems like it was an inevitability of history until today's VR.。morning、have a meal。cooked rice、Are you eating bread? Or calories that are supposed to be invisible?、how many grams of protein、Are you “eating”? If the diet goes as planned、Is that “reality”?

Narration

Narration is along with the video.、explain its contents、"Narrative" that gives psychological depth to images。When actually making a video、There's also the option of subtitles.、You can use them at the same time if you want to emphasize them.。If it's a video that explains something、One ideal would be to be able to understand the content without narration or subtitles.、At first I thought。

But、unspecified number of people、It seems impossible to remove narration and subtitles from videos aimed at the general public.。first、I get sleepy without a voice。to some extent、For videos that require volume、Even if it's a video that you can understand just by watching it、If you don't add an accent at the right time, you'll get bored.。And、For example, even if I remove the narration from my “Watercolor Painting Video”、Those who draw it themselves will understand, but、For those who have almost never drawn、If you don't show the point that "this is important"、I'll pass by without being noticed。For those people、It is said that it is kind to include an explanation that is easy to understand.、That's what I think from my point of view。

There are also things like ``looking good'' and ``listening good''.。I feel healed just by listening to that person's voice.、I feel energized、There is definitely a "voice" that makes you feel like the world is expanding.。That's the power of narration。-Even though I say that、I don't have that kind of talent、Think only about proper narration。But、As you can imagine、this is very difficult。“Watercolor painting…” does it refer to the movement of the brush?、Should I mention the color?、Is it better to say it in the context of the overall flow?、While I was thinking about this and that, the scene kept changing.。If you put in a lot of words、The screen gets longer and longer。vice versa、Sometimes I have a draft that I would like to explain a little more.、already cut the scene、Sometimes I run out of space (because I'm an amateur)。

Besides,、I said the wrong thing many times、misread。Re-record each time。When it's hard to say、The text must be edited to make it easier to read.。There is also noise。There were times when I found myself in an ambulance without even realizing it (because there was no soundproof room).。I don't do video editing as a job.、The amount of time you can do everything at once is limited.。If you change the date and time、Sometimes the tone of my voice sounds like a completely different person.。An announcer whose voice quality is always stable is、I feel once again that he is a professional.。In many videos, he is talking fluently while filming.、that's difficult for me。20It can take several days to narrate just a minute-long video.、Not uncommon for me。-Meanwhile、How about painting a single piece or an actual watercolor painting? When I hear the narration in my heart,、Even more stressful。
