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
  • artisanalcheese — super solid video essays with great topics. real.
  • MandaloreGaming — This person finds really weird games mostly sci-fi or fantasy. Entertaining videos and also a source of animation and visual inspiration
  • Secret Base — Best sports videos in the game
  • Raptors Report — I'm a big toronto raptors fan and this guy makes great summary videos throughout the season. Raptors focused of course but if you are into nba basketball in general definately check it out.
