      Will it walk around or other movements? If not, the reason for that will be there would have to be a lot of programming and testing for it to move around.

    The amount of hours you put in it, the design, the rush order. to be honest, I know you can make a video about it and monetize but you should have been compensated for at least part of it. This is an easy 10.000 Euro and that's setting the bar low, between 160 and 200 hours, 50 Euro per hour is already 8-10 G's only in labor.

      As someone who has worked, and whose wife still works in the film industry, prop artist get paid a lot, finding a prop artist like her who made something for a small studio is a gem. While she has donated her time and money, she could easily list this video, this prop, and the movie they make in her portfolio and it would catch the eye on any major film studio that would pay her well for her work.

    I don't know what to say. This project already has a personality, conveys emotion, and is "real" in a way that is just amazing. When they begin animating him (and yes, I've gendered said robot because it feels like a "he") the personality you've already imbued him with will guide the animators I'm sure. This project is amazing. I hope you get more requests like this because you deserve this kind of recognition for your artistry and ability.

    Martina, when you were growing up and dreamed about who you were going to be and what you were going to do for work when you became an adult, did you ever even imagine that you could be living the amazing existence you have now? It's so much fun watching you plan and tackle new projects. Your use of so many different mediums and tools is most impressive as well. But I think the thing I like the best is the way your whole face lights up with excitement and inspiration at the mere possibility of beginning something new.

      I hope they were her friends, had no money and could not promise her a cut of the profit. Otherwise there’s no excuse.
      Or charity.
      Would have loved a bit of explanation, as she is a role model to a lot of artists and is setting quite a bit of a problematic precedent.

    • @zeus04
      @zeus04 9 месяцев назад +15

      @@lucbloom I very much agree. I already had a bad taste in my mouth when they donated the PC to LTT for free! At least then she got exposure in a video from LTT if I remember correctly. I feel worried that more and more companies will learn to avoid paying fair compensation to artists as this trend continues.

    • @whoatemychocolate
      @whoatemychocolate 9 месяцев назад +16

      @zeus04 I don't think this is comparable to LTT since the proceeds of that project went to charity (as far as I know) so it's not like they made a free thing that was used to generate profits for LTT. Also, personally, I found out about Nerdforge through that LTT video and I'm sure that was the case for other people too, so that was definitely beneficial for both channels. I completely agree though that if this is a commercial project they should have paid, especially if they're going to scan the robot.

    • @zeus04
      @zeus04 9 месяцев назад +7

      ​@@whoatemychocolateYes, I agree that is an other thing entirely. That time it just felt a bit "uneven". The video would have been better if there was some kind of exchange benefitting both parties (as LTT has done with NAS hardware etc.) The free model for the Movie is outrageous. T
      his is not a acceptable way to treat artists and it sets a very bad example to everyone in the industry, especially smaller studios and workshops not yet established.
      The fact that she seemed to shop supplies for the project and general supplies for herself (the tape) suggests that they weren't even compensated for materials.
      One thing that puzzles me is if there is a transfer of IP rights for the model, if not, the Movie studio could be charged with huge license fees after the fact...

    • @artcasual99
      @artcasual99 9 месяцев назад +29

      According to her in the comments, they (the film makers) offered to pay but they (Nerdforge) turned them down because they wanted to make something they enjoyed and was their own design. The film makers were 100% wiling to pay but were instead given a free robot.

    I also like the idea of making a woodland shelter shaped like a flying saucer (I know they've been done before but there aren't enough of them). Your Robot looks great and it's only half built...I'll watch some more.

The others ditched the presentation.

    Really like how you used all your skills and moved out of your comfort zone to build this. Note on the spackle usage: You normally have to sand down with rough grit (80-100) then a finer grit (200+) when finishing it, BUT to help with smoothing it out before hand use a little Dawn dishsoap (others do not work as well, but test and see) in the spackle mixture you apply. It does help with the amount of your favorite activity... SANDING :D
    Again, hats off and well done to you all and your studio.
