can you describe yourself in one or two made-up (by you) words

Is there a theoretical, neigh, provable reason why you'd say happy birthday to my girlfriend?

What programs and effects do you use for your older 2D videos? I use Premiere Pro for my videos and I'd be able to mimic some of your pallets using difference layers and solids, but the way they shift color and almost echo when they animate around the video gives them a distinct texture that I want to try to mix with some analog filters. Also please have a nice day

if you haven't done it already, i think you wanna start exporting and re-importing. it's a magic technique that brings you a new level of results, regardless of what software you use. (my software was discontinued anyway, so you can't use it). take a segment of video, export it, then re-import it into the timeline at exact the same place. then start playing with it in relation to what's already there. then if you want to get even denser, do it again

so here i am, recording a synth line for the final chorus of my song. i do a few takes, figuring it out as i go. within a couple of minutes, though, the thing has morphed into a POWERFUL bit of instrumentation. like, it feels synth-solo worthy. the problem is.... it's absolutely not supposed to be that - it's just meant to be a background synth. it feels so wrong to just make it super quiet, because it feels like it demands attention, but if it's too loud it'll distract from the lyrics. so.... what do i do? do i toss it out? gamble and try a rewrite to create another, instrumental-only chorus? just leave it as-is and hope for the best? i'm really not sure what to do here
|
leave it as is. if you like it so much, then it might jump out at you and you'll find a way to extend it somewhere, but that actually won't work if you insist upon it. so leave it

How do I avoid freaking out when I remember that I have no idea how anything I depend on works? For instance, my body can do a bunch of stuff like moving and maintain homeostasis, and also break down at any moment, and I don't understand most of the inner workings behind all that. Same with electricity, or computers, or internet. My life depends on all those things, but I have no idea how any of them work. How to not freak out and panic? Obviously I could just learn everything, but it would take about 543097 lifetimes, and I'd be freaking out for as long as I'm not done learning everything.

sometimes I meet someone who has only ever played sheet music in an orchestra or whatever, and even if they're interested in composing or improvising the thought makes them anxious. do you have any advice for helping people like that
|
it's not clear whether you are talking about someone who really wants this. But if they do indeed have a strong desire to create their own things, but has only ever had experience as a sheet/scripted player, then i think i'd suggest starting totally fresh. possibly switch instruments. get way outside the box. smash the box. playing all scripted is a totally different universe, so it will be like learning something completely new. which is fun

i want to start writing but i find i can't get motivated. i have good ideas; i just can't be motivated to pick up a pencil (or mouse) and start writing. any tips?
|
the way you say it, it sounds quite strange. if you want to do it, then you're motivated (want is motivation). if you're not motivated, then it means you don't want to. and yet, you say you want to, but you also don't want to. so on the surface this doesn't make sense. Usually this descrepancy can be resolved if you actually just take a closer look at what it actually is that you DO and DON'T want to do. They will turn out to be 2 different things. in that case, you can probably just choose the one you want and do that one
