Dev Notes - 2025-08-24 - Improving Skills
🕑 Added 2025-08-25 03:36:02 +0000 UTCHi everyone, so I know I have not posted for a bit. I had a week long vacation with family and work has been nuts. What I have been doing though is working on improving my rendering and general capabilities.
I think some of the issues I am dealing with are from me being self-taught and not giving myself some time to learn certain things properly. One of the members here sent me a really nice message with some teriffic ideas on how to up my game, especially with the dark images issues. I have been practicing both Daz and now playing with an application called Topaz AI (thank you to my sponsors who help me afford these tools), which would condense two of my automation workflows in one: denoising and webp conversion.
One of the nice things is that it also upscales so I am going to explore the compression rates, the upscaling effectiveness, and see if I can give you all a 4K cleaner version with improved lighting and everything without having to re-pose, re-render, etc.
So, I am thinking for labor day weekend, I can get a 4K version out to the senior directors, or at least a cleaned up version at current resolution. I will spend only this week with this work and then back to mroe new scenes.
