Cool stuff! Personally, I prefer to cut things precisely and not have some predefined length. I used some free video editor for that
>I really don't get why all of the media players never bothered to implement such a simple yet extremely needed feature
We're talking about mpv here, they don't even consider a decent UI something necessary.

Personally, I've been trying the various noise-filtering tools available in mpv. I've found out they have 3 or 4 different approaches, including AI stuff. I think mpv command line options are pretty cumbersome to write, and it took me a while to figure everything out, but in the end one approach (afftdn) worked quite well for me.

>Personally, I prefer to cut things precisely and not have some predefined length.
I think it's just that I don't want to interrupt myself while watching a long TV show or movie just because a scene might make an interesting clip. So instead, I lazily create a bunch of rough clips of interesting scenes, and then cut them down to precise lengths later.
There's also cases where I am watching long ass compilations of something or maybe even a livestream vod.
>We're talking about mpv here, they don't even consider a decent UI something necessary.
I wasn't really talking about mpv in this case but about like all of the other media players that are available like Windows MPC-HC, MPC-BE, VLC, QMPlay2, etc. I mean there are various UI tools for mpv if you want them with fairly simple installation instructions but mpv as a whole seems like a thing for nerds to mess around to their liking.

>>219
>I lazily create a bunch of rough clips of interesting scenes, and then cut them down to precise lengths later.
Makes sense
>I wasn't really talking about mpv in this case
I just checked and apparently you can make clips from a video in vlc. You need to turn on "Advanced controls" in the "View" menu. That gives you a "record" button that can be used to record a clip from what you are watching.
>there are various UI tools for mpv
True, and maybe I should check them out. What discouraged me is that apparently they are not that popular and most people use mpv directly, or at least that was my impression. So I feel like the mpv people deciding not to work on a proper UI resulted in everyone giving up on having one, which is a shame.

Generated a few changes to the script: https://files.catbox.moe/x41md3.rar
This version of the script re-encodes the video instead of using -c copy, due to the earlier mentioned keyframe precision issue. Because FFmpeg needs to decode the video from the beginning up to the target timestamp when re-encoding (especially when using -ss after the input), the encoding process takes longer the further into the video you go.
For clipping Anime:
Subtitles, it copies all of them over to the output container .mkv (or .mp4 if the subtitles are compatible: mov_text).
Audio, the script checks whether there is a Japanese audio stream (jpn). If one exists, it copies only that stream; otherwise, it defaults to the first available audio stream.
I did this mostly because you can't really pick out the correct English subtitle stream in most cases and I don't really wanna have to switch to the Japanese audio every time I open a clip. (yeah, fuck you English dub watchers)
Also its now 5s - 15s - 30s - 60s - 90s - 120s buttons.

>>221
Oh yeah, before using this please change the value of "OUT_DIR" to an directory where you want to clips to output to. Also, you can open the console in mpv with ` if you encounter an error with the clip feature.

>Keys to drawing - Project 1 - F — Mechanical Objects

>Make a drawing of a complicated mechanical object — an egg beater, a sewing machine, a typewriter, or a non-electric rotary pencil sharpener. Use a pencil (2B or HB) and keep the point sharp. Employ “focusing” in your drawing: Select one or two main areas and develop them in detail, treating the remainder of the drawing as simple contours and shapes. Look at the subject more than at the drawing. Search out the major and secondary shapes. (Squinting may be helpful here.) Try drawing blind at least three or four times as you work. Do not erase, but have two or more restatements in your drawing. Allow at least one-half hour. Work larger than life-size.
In the end, the lamp was a bit too simple to leave any details out, so I didn't do much "focusing". I'm pretty happy with the drawing however, because at first I was really struggling. I'm afraid I won't be able to keep with a daily schedule, but this thread got me to draw a bunch which is something I had wanted to do for a while

I was thinking that there is some NSFW content I want to post on 22chan but there had to be a creative way of being able to censor it so it doesn't break the rules. So I drew this which I originally took from the anime ハヤテのごとく！ (Hayate the Combat Butler) where for example the protagonist had been cross-dressed in an episode (ep. 8 to be precise) and was attacked by a horny tiger... https://youtu.be/6iM4AK-sN1E?t=112 [Play] The character who is censoring the scene is called 自主規制君 (Jishukisei-kun -> Self-Regulation-kun) which is holding up a sign that says 「見せられないよ! 」-> "I can't show you!" and he appeared many more times throughout the anime censoring parodies with copyright issues, blood scenes, etc.
So because of how he looks somewhat similar to the Gedou-baby (Aka-san) on Nico Nico Douga he was used to censor some Pants Wrestling videos which then spread it to other fandoms as censoring material.
https://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/見せられないよ%21

So if you have anything that's too NSFW to be posted on 22chan I ask you to please use the "Can't show ya!" Niniba. Also feel free to also come up with your own creative censoring material.

Thanks! nice pose and idea.

>I should probably study more human anatomy
I just copy work from the masters like François Boucher and keep an ecorché at hand, but I don't get lost in the details. Most bodies drawn are soft, not really muscular.

>what makes colours appealing
Maybe start with Impressionism, the way they use color is very appealing to me. There are many lectures and blogs online that explain color relationships. Nathan Fowkes does a really great job teaching his craft!

Your setting is probably one where you can have fun with colors and lighting. Check out some of Olga Nikitina’s underwater paintings.

Cool paintings, they have an eerie aura, I love it.
Something I noticed in that particular piece is that you jumped straight into the details way too early (second vid, around the 29 minute mark). Try building up the main statement/shapes a bit more first.
Another thing that I think could help is exporting your lineart and using it as a reference, so you don't have to worry about painting over it and can keep track of your original vision.
