3. Black text on a white background reads, "being alive is like: you want to go home. you don't know where home is. you want to go home. you don't know where home is. you want to go home. you haven't known for a long time. you want to go home but you don't know where you'd go. you want to go home you want to go home you want to go home"

Clockwise starting from the top left, the images show: a hand holding three white flowers on a blue background; dark green leaves; a green bush with white flowers; a blue sky with clouds; a house with an empty porch; the side of a building and adjacent sidewalk. Individual words in various colours and fonts are pasted over the images. The words read, "Maybe memory is all the home you get"

8. An image of a white car driving on a road, facing the camera. In the background, there are green trees along the horizon, and a dark, cloudy sky. Lines of black text on a purple background is pasted onto the image. This text reads, "Driving in your car / I never never want to go home / Because I haven't got one anymore"

9. Black text on a white background reads, "Oh no, I'll come by when I'm grown / It won't be the same though / I can't go even go home, go home"

absolutely obsessed with the idea of the gifted gang slowly shifting from simple classmates to friends to family. it’s so obvious that they know each other in and out... with all their nicknames and the easy teasing (about pang and wave) and how they’re not scared of wave anymore. how he’s comfortable enough to make mistakes and smile them off. it really speaks to the lesson they learned last season, a stark contrast to the last episode of the gifted... it’s only together that they can win. and over late nights of planning, over days of hiding, over passing each other in the corridor and shooting each other secret smiles—they’ve become a family.

hi maria, do you know any solutions for twixtor warping? Hope you can help me. Thank you in advance!

warping is just there, unfortunately, but there are ways to avoid it. 

by using a scene with minimal movements

matching your project settings with you rendering settings

disabling resample 

these are my settings 

the results

this vid might help you with fast movements warping but tbh, i’m too lazy for these steps so what i do sometimes is, if the scene has a really fast movement, I’d just leave the fast movement with normal speed and then slow it down when it stops like so. 

it can be really useful sometimes. and this is how it would look if you slowed down the fast movements, (it would look horrible lol)
