Archive Remix

Artwork Finished works
1

I’ve been using Synfig for awhile for basic animation work. Some examples here, here, here and here.

For a residency that I’m currently undertaking I’ll be reworking archive material from the University of Bimringham, UK. Taking inspiration from gifopera, for awhile I’ve been making animations using their archives.

420×533

480×670

I’ve been using a combination of Inkscape, Blender, Processing, Synfig and Gimp. The first animation was originally started in Synfig but I redid it in Blender due to bugs introduced in Ubuntu 14.10. It meant I couldn’t set the blend type for layers.

Looking forward to using Synfig more!

i like your glitchy work … nice to know that you support freesoftware if your creative work … see you at some LGM one day :wink:

and want share the good news of synfig 0.64.3 release who fix UI behavior

I want to go to the one in Toronto but I don’t have the funds to support me :frowning: I’ll definitely be at the one in 2016 in London.

Ah yes. I’m using 0.65 and the issue hasn’t yet been fixed there. I tried resaving my Synfig file to an earlier version so that I may work on it in 0.64.3 but it uses some features not found in that version (something about transformations)

  • Toronto’s 2k15 … a synfig crew community founded travel maybe ???
  • London’s 2k16 yep for sure … see’u there !

the issues are fixed in master … try to build your own, ih’ave published an easy way to go and can help you in case of … (to build a release / do not DEBUG=1 :open_mouth: )

If someone wants to fund me then I’d be more than happy to accept :wink:

I tried to build my own a few days ago but gave up. Will there be .deb published soon?

where the script has stopped ?

i’m not in charge of this process, it’s a Z for question ( a question for Z… ) … until few hours, he was quite busy releasing 0643… we can expect that next build process will be a 065dev.

Oh, I didn’t know about that script. It compiled successfully, thanks! Although the interface is a bit weird. Is there any way to install it to the appropriate directories on Ubuntu? (similar to what the deb does)

glad for u’

I do not think that jcome is actualy working on a black theming of synfig … so … hummm… did you have a really fresh code ie : git fetch origin + git rebase ? if yes … can you open an issue : synfig.org/issues/thebuggenie/

something like sudo ./synfigstudio-linux-build.sh package ? but i never tested it

have fun with it !
