Young talents on stage - You!

Skybird · 05-23-06, 12:16 PM

Okay, in the poll we had a 70:30 result in favour of an arts/hobby thread where people can link to or directly post the results of their artistic ambitions.

No need to be shy, there is no price to win, no jury to bring you down, it's all about having some fun, learning about the other, and present some works that you like for whatever a reason.

I suggest these items can be posted:

- photography
- collages
- paintings
- drawings

- picture-movies
- real videos
- abstract computer graphic animations

- songs, and pieces of music

- poems
- short stories
- novels

texts in your mother-tongue are welcomed, some can read it then, others not - so be it. You shall not feel hindered by feeling inable to do an adequate translation. I will post a german-language "Novelle" myself later, too.

Since I raised the idea, it seems to be me who must push the starting-button. I do it with this movie, 1:50 minutes, 6.3 MB. Please experiment with your video settings, turning photography into wmv-videos reduces the visual quality, unfortunately.

The photos has been shot over the last twenty years. Some are negatives that I scanned, others are paper prints that I scanned and reworked, some are new digital images, and two or three had been changed massively and turned into "paintings" by using PSP9.

The going of this thread obviously is not in conformity with the poll's result. Bunch of unreliable gangster are you!

I am trying to download your movie but it is so slow at 1.74kb/sec. At this rate it will take a couple of hours to dl.

Oberon · 05-24-06, 06:23 AM

Alrighty then, I'll throw into the pot with this.
It's a piece of fiction based on the Cold War Deluxe mod for Civilisation III, available for download here.
It's unfinished, with Chapter three just underway. Although that may be delayed slightly while I rack my brains for a story for the Subsim creative writing contest.

Konovalov · 05-24-06, 07:17 AM

Not a bad little package there Skybird. I particularly liked the image of the horse and the final image at dusk with the brilliant colours of the sky with the clouds. Relaxing stuff.

Skybird · 05-24-06, 07:40 AM

Thanks, my first attempt ever with movie creator. Sorry for the slow speed, but I can'T help it. I tried five other sites, they even did not work reliably. The sunset picture was made with a 600mm - and free handed.

Archery and breath-control paid off there.

But remember, guys, this is not Skybird-in-the-spotlight-thread. It was meant as a stage that is free to all to step onto!

Show us what you are made of! (said the man). Tell us all about you! (said the lady).

Reading now

Berlin, eh!?

I will check for the correct locations.

Hm, you are right, Konovalov, the speed is a pain, it was better yesterday.

Does anyone know a better working free hosting site? I tried several, but they all were very bad so far.

Patience, Skybird, patience.

My masterpieces are forthcoming, but the selection process is extremely tough!

You are in search of this, maybe?

Word War IV, eh?

Taking up Tom Clancy's trail, you do!

Ooops! I do not understand your point.

That image at the end of the link you posted, what is that? It means what? Can someone read Japanese?
