Florian Thamer ☀️🤖 @derflow.xyz · 20/03/2026"What bitrate should I export my mp4s in?" I used to wonder this until I found a formula in an old PDF that an Adobe employee created over 15 years ago. I turned it into a little calculator for everyone to use: bitratecalculator.appbitratecalculator.appH.264 Bitrate CalculatorCalculate H.264 CBR and VBR bitrates for any resolution, frame rate and motion complexity. Free, instant, no sign-up. 020

Florian Thamer ☀️🤖 @derflow.xyz · 02/12/2024In @sidefx.bsky.social Houdini, is there a shortcut that releases a node from the node-tree (like when you shake it free)? Sometimes the shaking doesn't work as I wish it would so just pressing a key would be so much easier. 020

Florian Thamer ☀️🤖 @derflow.xyz · 28/11/2024I really hope this will change in the future otherwise bluesky is dead on arrival for motion graphics people :( 130
Florian Thamer ☀️🤖 @derflow.xyz · 25/11/2024I know my reach is very limited here but are there any fellow motion designers or designers in general from Devon/Cornwall on here? I'm sharing an office with the wonderfully talented @simonfarussell.bsky.social, @haxiomic.bsky.social and @callumcannarella.bsky.social down/up in Plymouth! 154

Florian Thamer ☀️🤖 @derflow.xyz · 21/11/2024I already have way too much politics on this timeline for my liking. Where are my fellow motion graphics designers? Where's the Houdini crowd? Get off your Discords! 270
Florian Thamer ☀️🤖 @derflow.xyz · 19/11/2024Here's a still in 4k resolution to show how the compression (in my previous post) mangles the output. I was hoping @bsky.app would have better media compression that Tw*tter tbh 140
Florian Thamer ☀️🤖 @derflow.xyz · 19/11/2024Hello Bluesky people! I'm, like most people, are fairly new here and am looking forward to liking social media again (hopefully) I make motion graphics, mostly big screen art things these days. Let's see how bsky compresses 4k particle sims! 2220
