Heading to Düsseldorf tomorrow for Beyond Tellerrand festival, so tonight's the last big push on the title sequence! Tidying & tweaking now!

Building a unique musical track for each speaker as part of the @beyondtellerrand.com titles! All created on the OP-Z 👍

Right then, that’s all the @beyondtellerrand.com Title sequence Speaker graphics designed and connected to via MIDI in Unity… now time to make 13 new musical beats to drive the performance!

👋 Got a few new followers so though I'd best introduce meself! My name's Gavin - by day I'm a Director & Designer for Aardman, by night I'm a passion project pursuer going by 'Jamfactory'. I'm a keynote speaker, author of 'Do Fly' and music maker under the name 'Project Toy'. www.jam-factory.com

Just one week to go before BEYOND TELLERRAND and I’m in the thick of it with the titles! The visuals are nearly wrapped up, then it’s over to the music which will drive it all! It’s all coming from this lil guy - the OP-Z - which will provide the music and MIDI signals! I’ve customised it a lil!

✨Hello Bluesky! Where are my fellow creatives at? Designers / Artists / Illustrators / Animators / Musicians - would love to have my feed more full of creative human greatness!✨ https://media.tenor.com/7VzBV6inB6IAAAAC/hiya.gif?hh=249&ww=498

Marc’s the bloody best! 🙌 [contains quote post or other embedded content]

I’m in the weeds now! Connecting up the different layers of each design and attaching it to a kick or snare or FX from the OP-Z. My Unity knowledge is beginner at best but I’m muddling me way through!!

Beyond Tellerrand is just 2 weeks away so it’s time to get these Titles ship-shape! After work / kids bedtime isn’t enough so searching the wee hours for more time! I haven’t done the 5-7am passion project time slot in quite a few years, let’s see if I’ve still got it in me!

Posted last week's round-up at lunchtime! Grab a brew and have a read! https://jamfactory.ghost.io/weekly-roundup-011/

FROM THE ARCHIVES: Back in 2018, at Aardman, I had to create a 'user manual' for the alien spaceship in 'Shaun the Sheep: Farmageddon' movie!

Just a few weeks until Beyond Tellerrand [ @beyondtellerrand.com ] and I’m busy crafting the titles! I’m hoping to play the titles - live - via a combo of an OP-Z, GoPro, OBS and Unity!

Hello Manchester! Looking forwards to speaking at Motion North tonight! See you there! www.motionnorth.uk https://www.motionnorth.uk/

So very well deserved! 👏 [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Shaz is great. Everyone hire Shaz. He also has impeccable dress sense too. Fact. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

The OP-Z is going to feature pretty heavily in the Beyond Tellerrand titles, so I built a surround for it in LEGO so I can mount the GoPro onto it for live shenanigans!

I am here for my first rainbow border card! That’s what I love so much about this game, they get the tactile-digital feel so right! #tcgpocket

Look at these lads! Loving the new shinies! #tcgpocket
