Youtube Channels I like

Animation Tools

  • Blender — The pride and joy. I use this for a lot of my animation and video editing.
  • POV Ray — Mainly used for stills and backgrounds. Really cool tool with a great look.
  • Pose Ray — I use this to load objs into POV Ray

Textures

  • Texturer — Great free texture library. Lots of nasty damaged textures
  • GIMP — great free tool for image editing

3D Assets

Audio Tools

  • Audacity — Decent free audio tool. Hard to make full songs but great for mangling sounds and creating individual sound effects. I like the ability to reduce sample rate heavily to make mid 2000s like digital distortion, as well as the time stretch functions
  • Ableton Live — Definately not free. But this is my go to music making tool. Thankfully it is something you can purchase one time and actually own. Love ableton.

Youtube Channels I like

  • Miziziziz — Inspiring artist and game creator. Also makes really entertaining videos. I also recommend his udemy tutorials. The blender one is what got me started in 3D art
  • Harakiri Diat — Cool curation of punk and electronic music. I find a lot of music through this channel
  • dismiss yourself — another good music curation channel
  • karma archives — another good music curation channel. lots of drain scholar material here
  • Zev Magasis — super cool filmaker. has some pretty dark videos but I love how he captures the world in a dreamy unsettling way. always makes me think of un-escapable fate when I watch his videos. A big inspiration for my own stuff.
  • Jonas Čeika CCK Philosophy - great essays pairing philosophy with modern media. great way to brush up on concepts and interpret writers in a new way. love the simpsons and cyberpunk videos
  • PilotRedSun — unreal videos and a huge inspiration for any humour or surreal imagery in my animaiton
