People giving out tips on how to "improve" this probably didn't read the FAQ.
> The Free Movie is not about quality– in fact, that interpretation, that rawness, is the specific terroir want in the final film. To paraphrase MSCHF: shitty things are good.
Yes, there are better ways to rotoscope a movie than unmoderated crowdsourcing. So what? Not everything has to be over-engineered and optimized for 150% user experience. Considering how it was made, I think this is actually surprisingly watchable.
- throwaway4837 3y agoEvery other frame is "penis" text, a drawing of a penis, or something similar. I believe it's a work of art nonetheless, definitely cool. If they did it "right" the result would just end up looking like someone took the original movie, converted it to 16-color space, then randomly moved around groups of pixels. I agree the way this is was executed was much more interesting than the "right" way. It's a cool experiment!
- Wiskyt 3y agothis is not watchable for me, maybe without all the blank or random frames it could be
- bena 3y agoPeople aren't looking to improve the quality of the honest attempts at reproductions of frames, they are looking to have each frame be an honest attempt at reproducing a frame. There are so many frames where there was no attempt made. And the FAQ says nothing about that. It does not say that trolling other users is the point. The point is to troll Dreamworks/Paramount by stealing their movie in the weirdest way possible.
