    well it has not really been official just bits leaked here and there,

    yes I saw on Facebook and Youtube

    but here .... bundles half hidden, facebook links by other's modded

    I guess we just wait until there is something actually official here on the site and forum

    I failed my Cultural Knowledge roll. Can someone explain the origins of this? Or at least where can I find out more about this.

    From the description of this Instagram post:

    Quarantine Art Kit ???????????? Link in bio •we shot 5 of these greenscreen “lyric videos” so we could have visuals for the album (doing our regular intensive videos in my state didn’t seem super wise etc etc) •But obvs w delete forever we started messing around in post and making better stuff than we thought we could. •Anyhow -
    Because we’re all in lockdown we thought if people are bored and wanna learn new things, we could release the raw components of one of these for anyone who wants to try making stuff using our footage. ???????????? •In my bio is a we-transfer file with - the “you’ll miss me when I’m not around” greenscreen footage, some shorter snippets (might be easier to mess around with but feel free to cut up master file however, make gifs, whatevs). - stems for the song if you wanna mess around wit audio (and some native inst tools are included). + single art etc. - Starting April 8th Native Instruments is offering free 1 month http://sounds.com subscription and/or $25 NI Store Voucher (TBC) for remixing and some other bonus audio stuff (like, One randomly selected participant will get Komplete 12)
    - We’re also working on securing free short term access to the visual tools we use (keep u posted).
    - So basically, just a bunch of tools for anyone who wants to use them ???????? (This is how we made delete forever if your interested). •Anyway we were inspired by all the amazing art that gets sent our way,
    So hoping some of these things are of use when the days are long and lonely. •Anyway, I hope everybodies doing ok!
    _____________________
    •Ps other tools we’ve enjoyed using are:
    - Blender (free online!) (And FYI - Blender can do all the compositing and tracking needed to make stuff )
    - Adobe suite (for editing and stuff)
    - Daz 3D (what we use to make @Warnymph) - We’re always down for recommendations too if u guys have any

    Really excited to see what people come up with. And a big THANKS to Daz for the free items in the bundle! As an aside, you know you've bought a lot when you own almost everything in both bundles D:

    Any bets on how long before this turns into a similar situation as when the Queen wore her green dress earlier this month and people started Photoshopping stuff onto it? lol

    I don't think I'll be able to join in and animate something due to my laptop being too weak to animate anything, but I appreciate these wonderful freebies. Thank you DAZ and Grimes. :3

    I am a boomer so not really familiar with her music, just also know she is Elon Musk's partner and expecting so yeah there is that,

    but certainly others have done more avant garde things

    particulary musos

    so see nothing particulary odd about this

    just wondering what they are going to end up with

    she seems to be able to sing at least from what I heard which is more than many autotuned songbirds can do

    I think this dichotomy of autotune vs being able to sing isnt really a fitting one for Grimes since she probably worships autotune for the accelerationist clout or something

    I actually really like Grimes despite the tenor of my posts in this thread lol

    also free daz stuff is free daz stuff, you dont see me complaining

  • IvyIvy Posts: 7,165

    I think it be fun for someone who are in isolation. But I can think of better projects that don't put you in jeopardy of content violations on YouTube.  I have enough issues with that as it is.  For daz's part this is a really generous offer.  The daz content is good choices . Its just to bad I already own all of items offered. nothing to gain here for me anyway.

    But I do look forward to see what some creative person does with this stuff.  laugh

    Well the premier bundle is a really bad choice. Once you grabbed the free bundle/items, if you count all other items current price its cheaper to buy them separately even if you have none of them.

    A lot of that stuff is older content as well . I used that Asian court in a animation back in 2013...laugh

    Oddly I had none of the stuff in the free bundle but about half the items in the premier one (of those not in the free bundle). Comes out way cheaper to buy the items I'm missing than the bundle now.

    There's an official sales page for this now, with details about the chroma screen footage, camera positioning files and such that you might need to add your own backgrounds to her video footage.  Details here:

    I never heard of her and when I saw the music video on my iPad I thought it was an animated Genesis character with Arki clothes lol.

    Please play nice - this is potentially a fun thing for people to enjoy, if for any reason it isn't to your taste then ignore it (other than downloading the freebies, if you want them).

  • James_HJames_H Posts: 1,091

    Is there a reason whyt the free bundle cost $69?

    I had a look at the tutorial and it talks about using Adobe products. Sorry, I don't own any adobe suite like that. :) I only own Adobe CS6 Photoshop, so can joyfully not participate.

    I would be too tempted not to do it in DAZ studio! laugh

    so probably best I just enjoy the freebies in Carrara and leave it to others wink

  • Uhm...how exactly is this a free bundle if it's $69 bucks?  Just curious.

  • EnvixerEnvixer Posts: 60

    Yeah, how come the free bundle isn't actually free?

    I think this would be fun to just play around and do it.  And I'm going to assume that you are not bound to just the Adobe products for this.  While I do own the CS6 version of Adobe Products, I also have the Corel Suite and uses HitFilm Pro exclusive for film/video editing.  So, I'm sure with a little time devoted, this could translate over to alternatives.  I say still give it a try.  Use GIMP and other free resources if you can.  It would be interesting to see how it would still turn out.

    Hm... there was a $69.95 discount on it when I "purchased" it this morning. Maybe file a tech support ticket?

    they also suggest Hitfilm Express which is free in the link about it

    so yes can use all free options

    I'll flag the bindle issue, thanks for pointing it out.

  • CELESRACELESRA Posts: 93

    As someone close to the age of 40, I think a new program will take me 6 months + to learn. Hence, I will gladly sit this one out. :)

  • GreymomGreymom Posts: 1,140

    The Free bundle had a $69.95 discount, and so was free, a few minutes ago.

     

  • LinwellyLinwelly Posts: 6,055

    If I remember correctly you can do still images as well for this, and I mean it's a cool for fun idea

    Seems fixed now.
