Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot like a monkey

That was from Future Perfect, though 😁 I’ve never played the first one, but 2 and 3 are great!

I’ve seen fonts on all kinds of filesharing sites like Mediafire etc. But archive.org feels like a good bet for some kind of longevity. As for making it findable, I’m afraid I can’t think of any advice.

Yeah, I’m in a similar spot with After Effects. I think there’s just nothing out there that comes even close for motion graphics, except maybe Blender. I simply haven’t taken the time to learn it.

By pure coincidence I found a font just last night that I had been searching for, on and off, for years—on archive.org of all places. Kind of funny that you came back and replied to my comment today in your post about fonts 😄

Out of curiosity, did you ever find a solution for removing the DSIG data?

I use Adobe CuckCloud at work on my boss’ subscription. For personal stuff I have the Affinity suite. I know it’s also proprietary, but it’s a one-time purchase, and more importantly, not Adobe.

Man I tried using Inkscape to make a small icon and it took me maybe 30 mins to do something that would have taken less than two minutes with Illustrator. I know there’s a learning curve to all software, but my experience was very bad. Pretty much every hotkey I wanted to use was different from its Illustrator counterpart. And even looking past that, the interface was horribly laggy on my machine. I have no idea what made the UI refresh at like 20fps but tolerating it was untenable for me.

I’ll probably try it on another computer, and remap the hotkeys I use the most. If/when I eventually ditch Windows for Linux, I’ll need something that works, since Affinity’s stuff is Windows + Mac only.

Could they not just (in Illustrator) use the type tool for the characters they want and convert each character to paths? No tracing required!

This is based solely on memory so I’m probably wrong somewhere lol

Just to add a bit to the other folks’ great answers, RedLetterMedia watched Breakin 2 in their Best of the Worst series. Link! For those who don’t watch BotW, they usually watch three films, but while they couldn’t do a deep dive into Breakin 2, I think they showed most of the cool stuff from it (just a guess because I’ve never seen the film).

The sequence with the rotating room is still kind of mind-blowing to me.
