Krusty dropping his new mixtape [Rule] (files.catbox.moe)

This image has a bit of a fun origin

This is a picture of a 3D printed miniature Krusty placed in front of a computer monitor displaying an image of mountain view. It was taken using a 1960s 16mm Soviet projector lens adapted (after a couple hops) to a Lumix G9. The image was then ran through Lightroom, Audacity, Lightroom again, and the parental advisory logo was added afterwards using Gimp.

The model is roughly 1 inch tall.

The model was unpainted at the time of the photo and I have since given the model to a friend. Though I'll probably print more of him.

Audacity??

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah! It's called databending and it's really cool. Save your image as a bmp and then import as raw into audacity. Fuck around with some effects, maybe cut and paste some sections, perhaps copy some bits onto new audio tracks to layer them, then save it as a wav file. Rename it to a .bmp, open in your image editor/viewer of choice and enjoy!

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago

I only learned about it recently and I'm so happy I did, it can be used to add some very unique effects to images

One small correction though, you can save the images directly as a .bmp (or even .raw) file from Audacity. One thing I do is save it as a bmp then convert it to a jpg for Lightroom

this is why AI generated images will never take over from human made art

[–] LeylaaLovee@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 years ago

This is cool. I like seeing people get creative with photos. AI and CGI is cool, but there's nothing like shit being real

You had me at 1960s 16mm Soviet projector lens adapted to a Lumix G9

Old glass on new cameras is the fucking best

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

And this one is super weird, I'm able to focus on things behind what's in front of the lens

Like this

Honestly I'm so happy I bought this lens because of how strange it is, it makes photos seem like they're out of a dream

[–] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Now that's a wide aperture if I've ever seen one

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's a 50mm f/1.2 lens

This thing is wild

[–] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

f/1.2 can do that?

Oh damn, I didn't realize

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's the largest aperture lens I have otherwise I'd do more testing to see for sure but the screen behind the miniature in that video is only about a foot behind the mini

I've seen lenses with as high as f/0.95 for sale on Amazon with some really good reviews, but I haven't bought one yet

Also a little fun fact about the lens I have, it has no built in aperture control, it's always f/1.2

[–] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

lenses with as high as f/0.95

That sounds like something I can't afford, which I why I like vintage lenses so much. So cheap for what you get

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

They're not as expensive as I initially thought it they're still more expensive than vintage glass. I think my lens cost like $100 after shipping.

Edit: But vintage lenses do have some interesting traits that you really don't seem to get from modern lenses due to each of their individual histories.

[–] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah okay, that's actually very reasonable. But yeah, all the little design flaws in those old lenses add up to give the image its very own character.

For instance, they used Helios and Jupiter lenses for some scenes in The Batman, and even detuned their anamorphic cinema lenses to get the look more in line with those two.

It’s just him going “uuuuuuuuuggggghhhhh” over and over for an hour

[–] SmoochyPit@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wtf, I just tried to print this model from thingiverse!

Z axis was skipping steps for some reason… I’ll have to give it another shot today.

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Keep at it, its a tough print on an FDM machine for sure

This is the version I printed on my resin machine, I haven't even tried it on my FDM machines
