Magic Music Visuals

Wow! Absolutely mind-blown you did this all in MMV, especially the transforming effect center screen @ 2:30. I can tell you're having fun ;P love the music as well, keep on keeping on!

Life saver as always Eric <3

Anyone have a solution for allowing a midi button to toggle nodes on/off without having to hold it down?

For example, having the city lights ISF on a scene be bypassed with the press of a button.

Advice greatly appreciated.

My solution to this problem (if I'm understanding your problem correctly.) Is to use: Step A In globals panel (ctrl + shift + L) 1. add global 2. link global (two rings button on right side of node) 3. set link to "no source" 4. add "feature" (equals button on global node) "...

YES! Tried your suggestion again just starting going through every codec I could and it likes .flv and .f4v - balance is restored <3

I am making the loops in Blender. I just tried rendering in mov and mkv containers using H.264 codec and its the same deal. I also see what you mean with it being the same in VLC. Does Magic's VideoFile node work off of VLC's code? I dug around on some VLC forums and it's been a known issue in VLC f...

Eric,

I've discovered that adding in duplicate frames to the beginning or end of the loop (about 4 duplicates) results in a perfect loop. I've updated the folder with an example.

Thanks for the quick reply Eric. Here's a google drive folder with a loop, magic scene, and Premiere render:

Also to note I haven't done anything with the scene it's simply a default videofile input node linked to the output and rendered.

Hi there, I'm having issues getting my videos to loop seamlessly in Magic. I've had success looping videos in the past so initially I thought it was a problem with the source content, however, I now believe the issue is the "videofile" input node. This is a loop rendered in Magic, notice t...

Yo dude, glad you found the program and are enjoying it! It really is a good time! To help answer your question I have no issues getting full HD quality on youtube with my renders using the standard export settings, the only change I make is changing the resolution from 1280 x 720 to 3840 x 2160 (4k...

Something fun!

Which program do Jedi use to open PDF files?

Adobe Wan Kenobi XD

NUT XD I love the quality and the mandalas! I'm curious, how did you get the quality so high?

Thanks for enjoying phosphorus! Sadler, the transitions were achieved by me listening to the track and taking note of major changes and manipulating the timing of the playlist through trail and error to get it to line up. However, my intention behind this video was to demo the lil cube with a couple...

Dude, this is SEXY! I super fw your style. One recommendation I have (bc I encountered this same thing) is if you want movements to stop the jagged back and fourth movements: change the source of the translate nodes to "no source" and slap a snie osc. or ramp on that ish. Keep it up homie,...

There's a glitch in the matrix! Really creative and unique effects going on here, how long was your creation process?

PoohBear, I appreciate the honesty and appreciation! My next visual will be to my favorite band TOOL so maybe you'll jive with that more? :) Swoop, Thank you! I'm really happy with how this turned out, it has been my most ambitious visual in terms of choreography and technical applications (animatin...

Also, I create a lot more than visuals so come say "hi" on my facebook page! I'm always down for new friends. https://www.facebook.com/LucidAtrium I'm active on Instagram as well! https://www.instagram.com/lucid_atrium/ or you can just email me at LucidAtrium@gmail.com I'll be hitting up S...

Lil something something I've been putting together the past couple days, enjoy!

(Not responsible for spontaneous headbanging)

That's an incredibly creative way to get textures "Yeah we are inside of an elephant" XD I play with Blender for modeling and I found one way to import textures through the Blender internal rendering engine but the cycles engine is where all the nodes and fun stuff are so there is definite...

Understandable, I bet you need a beast of a CPU to keep all that junk inside that trunk. I just upgraded to a beefy Windows desktop replacement from a Macbook so if you ever want a benchmark on another machine I'd be happy to see how she runs over here. My laptop specs are: CPU - 3.6Ghz Intel i7-770...

Your sound reminds me of a cross between Daft Punk's RAM and TRON albums. Very creative, I'm excited to see what else you'll come up with!

I wouldn't mind seeing how Lucia likes Rude Bois: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zlczp0Qzzpk

XD

Dude, Lucia fucking gets down! How much of this is pre-op and how much is post? Do you think you'd be able to rig this live?

What exactly is Lucia?

Woah XD blew my mind more than a couple times. Idk what was going on at 45 mins but I loved it. I had a couple questions if you don't mind answering. I've been trying to figure out how to import textures on my models, but whenever I import them I'm getting just the shape. I believe the problem is on...

That was freaking sweet! You definitely took me somewhere for a lil bit. The syncing is on point, how many scenes did you end up using here?

Gah, so cool! I particularly like the light rays shining out from the bubbly entities around 2:35. The music is also very unique and enjoyable, I hope you're still creating!

In the process of uploading my pre-existing visuals to YT, here is my most recent creation! Happy little dancing cube, you'll see how he earned his name pretty quickly XD Let me know what you guys think! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVQR5ctf0mE&t=2s Cube is the standard default cube when you ...
