Preamble
Starting a new blog is as easy as starting to write a useless and space wasting essay like the ones I used to be so addicted to during school here in Italy.
Therefore I have at least to meet some reader expectations.I’m optimistic and I believe that this blog can have a lot of followers or at least that some people will really enjoy it and learn important lessons from it.
Million Dollar Answer
So the million dollar question here is ” what does people expect from a new opening blog? ” .
Maybe someone will expect a better written preamble with some outstanding sentences or something that touches the heart and the mind like a bolt out of the blue.Too high expectations for my poor English indeed, but I don’t believe those are the real ones. By the way I will never receive one million dollar for one of my answers,I don’t even know how a million dollar looks like.. so actually I don’t know either what people would really like to find in a blog, But I perfectly know what I want to talk about.
OK but first of all who are you?
I’m starting this blog to share and teach all the new things I discover day by day by working hard on things I love.
I’m a technical artist so I’ll share with you my love for Art and Programming applied to game development at 360 degree, 2d/3d animation and web development.
I’m Paolo Oliverio, a name like many other for a lot of you.
You can begin to look at the first revision of the about page.
Don’t worry, you will read a lot about me.(yes, is a kind of threat)
Motivation and Proposal
From today on this will be my battle position.
Even if people can think I’m experienced in my field, I had myself something web taught to me and something to continue to learn from the web every day: lessons that i pile up, transform and elaborate, but that come to a dead end because informations go one way from Internet to me and don’t flow back.
I haven’t learned things just for my work, but also for my life as,for example,my “not so right at all, but acceptable at least” English.
At first I was a bit jealous of my learning, discovers, my work-flows and techniques, but I have learnt that jealousy in knowledge make ignorance grow and a world of ignorance is no more a world I want to live in, so I have to do my part and my best to share what I have learnt.
Today is the day to start sharing those new elaborations.It’s time to compensate for all things I learnt and let the flow continue.OK, I’ll stop now because I’m disgusting myself with those pseudo-politic speeches.I believe that all points are clear so now is time to shift to something more useful than some -i hope- good words in my crappy English.
Subjects we will talk about
So we will talk about serious game development, casual game development, 3d modeling and animation packages as my favourite Autodesk 3ds Max; Creative suites like Adobe Creative Suite and the use of the applications in them like Photoshop, but also adobe Flash/Flex/Air for web development and creation of little fun games; Game and web programming in many languages mainly C++, Action Script 3, php, but also painting, digital sculpting with Zbrush, motion graphic, visual effects and many other things.
Soon I’ll post more details on arguments treated.
We will introduce , study in depth , make tutorials, and discuss on facts and news about those subjects.
What about S2 Engine?!?
Of course we will talk in depth about S2 Engine
We will cover all game development with S2 Engine arguments.Level design , Asset creation and exporting, Material and Shader creation and Gameplay,Ai and Hud Scripting.
And first of all we will make some previews about the new nextgen S2 Engine.
So deadlineproof.com followers will have all the latest news,pics and dates of this new great product.
Promises
I make some promise to me and you all:
1. Write only quality content for people and not for search engines.
2. Write only original essays in my poor English, but never make bad copies of something else.I might talk about a common topic but always from my own personal and technical point of view and experience.
3. Put only in context and unobtrusive ads, just to maintain blog ( not to get rich…as it can be possible).
4. Teach you to kick ass in all blog’s subjects.
5. Try to maintain all learning material free for all.
P.S.
To who thinks my English is too crappy…:
1. Try to talk Italian as i talk English.
2. Help me with your perfect oxford English instead of criticize.
