Which Distro for Theatrical Use? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[โ€“] StrongFox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks for the great advice. I have been thinking of moving to apple a lot, but actually I am very tempted to the open source ideology that's so strong in linux.

Which Distro for Theatrical Use? (lemmy.world)
 

Hello community,

I am tired of windows slowing down my laptop, and I tought I'd give linux a chance. So I learn, that there are many linuxes, and I wonder if it really matters. which one to choose. Can all linux apps be run on all distributions? Is it just a matter of the 'app store' supporting them or not?

I am producing media art for theatre plays. So I have to rely on a stable system as well as the following tools:

  • Blender 3d
  • a DAW
  • Design Software (adobe alternatives)
  • Video Editing & compositing
  • Projection mapping (I fear, there is just mapmap under linux)
  • audio cuing (linux show player)
  • maybe also light show programming (artnet / dmx)

The machine would be a Gigabyte Aero 15x with a dedicated nvidia gfx card, and 8 gigs of ram.

What would you recommend me?

How can I create text-particles from CSV-File (lemmy.world)
 

Hello community. I am new with blender, and this is my first post here. I have the following task to master:

I have a CSV-File with 1000 Names. I would like to spread those Names somehow randomly in space. It would be nice for them to be 3D, and not just be flat.

As a bonus, I would like those names to be connected by lines.

I would then animate a Camera flying through that space.

Is that achievable, and how? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks a lot.
