Loading Time - The Gangnam Style Expo

Postby Kathleen » 18 Oct 2012, 10:20

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/article ... Style-Expo

As I wasn't there, the column isn't so much about the Escapist Expo, but me just being a Dave Barry type for about 350 words.
HOLY SHIT GUYS! BEARS!

Wow, that looked like everyone was tripping over everyone else in every shot. Was everything really mushed together? it looked like there were events taking place just in the corner of the dealer room and vendors all over crowding the hallways.

On Saturday (when I'm guessing most of this was shot) it was very busy. It never got to the point where I felt I couldn't get somewhere, and there wasn't ever a time when someone couldn't get into a panel as far as I know. But it seemed like it was pretty full. I think that was, in part, due to the way the convention was set up though.

That sounds like what happens at Shore Leave every year. :D

Looked like allot of fun. I had just finished watching the Q&A panel over on the Escapist last night and looked on YouTube and there's the Loading Time for it.
Someone at LRR is watching me I think.

I'm playing a game of HvZ so I flinched when I saw someone wearing the orange bandanna as a zombie. I'm like, no, it's just a fashion statement, then I saw teh human player...

Also I saw Forumites! WOooooo!

Yes, there were forumites. Like me. And my wife (without her Hanar hat.) Many happy memories - looking forward to next year!

It was definately full, but didn't feel overcrowded. Just exactly the right size venue for the attending crowd.

I haven't seen it. GIF'ers GET ON THAT!! :P

Also: that moment when you realize that a shot of you in the video would make a good forum avatar so you go about trying to figure out how to get a screenshot from youtube only to remember you have the raw video files.

Sigh.

I will make this gif, but I have no idea what part you're talking about. :(

I saw like six gifable "its". Unless it's the super obvious callout "it".

Vigafre, your .gif has so much less color-banding than mine; what program did you use? Did you apply dithering?

I use ImageReady. It's discontinued, so I don't know where you can find it. Also, I don't know what dithering is.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dither#Dig ... processing

My image looks like it has more artifacts like those in Figure 2 -- there's tons of color-banding.

Your image looks like it uses a dithering algorithm like in Figure 3 -- there's more noise, but also better color representation.
