  • You shoot HDE files on the Alexa35? My post team recently got back a mag that Premiere (even Beta) absolutely refused to read even after trying it run it through Arri’s HDE decoder software. Couldn’t get it to load on Avid either, but could just be lacking some weird extension. Had to make ProRes transcodes through Resolve which was painful af to toss all that quality out.


  • Both are on steam as well. Definitely recommend if you love old school, turn based SNES JRPGs but with a dash of modernization in specs/combat. The artwork of the environments are genuinely beautiful. Some of the characters stories are really boring, some are crazy good haha.

    Square’s little studio turning out these HD2D games really have knocked it out of the park. Triangle Strategy is like FFT on steroids, hardest mode is really REALLY hard, although a bit grindy (arena training). Bravely Default II is a PS1 sprite version of HD2D ala FFVII with a really rich stats/specing. The CEO of Square hinted a Chrono Trigger HD2D remake is in the works too.















  • I got my job to buy my Embody during WFH pandemic since our office was stocked with them and Aerons. I used to have major back problems from my old chair and I can’t emphasize this enough: they disappeared within a month of getting this chair.

    I’d honestly buy one myself retail if I had to. Yeah it’s expensive and people can use that as an excuse not to like it but it is in fact legit properly designed. The way I look at it is like mattresses: you spend 1/3 your life on one so it’s worth the investment. If you work at desk, that’s another sizable percentage of your life so why not invest accordingly?

    As a funny related note, I did end up getting the gaming version of the Logitech x Embody because by some fluke it was slightly cheaper than the standard model at the time. I’ve sat in both and definitely like the fabric feel and slightly extra padding of the Logitech model. Also teal and black/grey are my favorite color combo without looking overly “gamer”.
