      They also have an inside joke, "what's that boom", where they try to guess the chemicals involved in the latest explosion, and as a result are all pretty damn good at chemistry... and keep multiple fire extinguishers in every room, just in case.

    • @TomGibson.
      @TomGibson. 2 года назад +6

      Also most third person cameras let you move the camera independently to where the character is facing, so the character is still the focal point but you can turn it around to see your face for example, this would solve his problem of having to turn his whole body/car but I don’t know how he would implement that irl

In most every 3rd person video game, though, you do have left/right control of the camera, so if you do this again you could somehow have the camera on a controllable mechanical swivel, so you could still "look" in other directions than forward.

    It’s be interesting to set up a drone to follow you as the camera. And then you can adjust the FOV to be closer or farther away. Also get rid of some of the bumpy video from it being attached to you. Maybe need a motion tracker thing that tracks your head movement so the drone can match it as well.

    Great idea, if you try this again you should find a to make the camera track your head movements.

    It might be difficult/expensive to pull off, but if you could somehow match your head movements to the camera moving around your body (maybe somehow have the camera be attached to your head instead of your torso) you could change what the experience is like. After all, in most third person games, you can rotate the camera around the character

    The problem is that you need a bevel that turns as you turn your head. Best way to do this is to put a sensor that measures how much your head, and divide that by some factor which you can tune, since you have more perception on the third view than first.

    Some 3rd person views allow you to adjust the camera around the avatar, and those do tend to make navigation somewhat easier. However, i imagine setting up a system in real life to mimic that would be quite difficult, and it isnt like some games dont have fixed views
