Hey guys, just wanna share an abstract short film I've made entitled 'Where Is My Mind' after the song of the same name featured in the video. Critique and such is much appreciated, I'm just here to make films and do what I like to do :)

"Where is my mind" - My reaction.

After many adventures in television production classes, I cannot take that song seriously.

As for the short film, the camerawork is noticeably shaky. I know it's supposed to be abstract, but the whole thing felt pointless, inconsequential, purposeless. I just didn't find myself connecting with it.

I wouldn't say it's bad or anything, but it definitely needs some work.

I like this post! Thanks for some serious crit, yeah I know there's a lot of things wrong with it, and I know it's not bad, but it's not exactly good either. Well it's my first piece of film made entirely by me that's nt animation, so I can only get better from here, appreciate it dude :)

I actually like the song (before that bit it goes all pop/rock on my ass anyway)

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    That sounds really cool

    I know the basics but no strategy at all :rofl:
