![]() Ten for the meal, one for the reel, as they say. The work in a big agency can seem glamorous from the outside, but the reality is that we got a lot of creatively frustrating internal work. I worked there for 7 years, working my way up to the title of Sr. After a 6 month stint, I got hired full-time. I did everything from project archiving to video editing, to PA on shoots to animation and design. When I got back to the states, I got a job interning at Arc Worldwide/ Leo Burnett in Chicago. My head was swimming with ideas when I left there. ![]() They were doing some an innovative mix of 3D and 2D design for interactive, commercials and print. I also saw some really great work by Qube-Construct. I was like, “I want to do that!” It felt like the first time I had a solid direction that satisfied all my creative interests. The fluid ink world building and smooth transitional reveals in that video captured my attention. There I saw a video for Bombay Sapphire presented by Psyop. The other big turning point that happened to me in Australia was a field-trip to Semi-Permanent Design conference in Sydney. Most everything they taught during this time I still use to this day. ![]() Audio mixing, web design, 2d & 3d animation, video, and graphic design fundamentals are all taught in this crazy crash course. They teach several disciplines at the same time to show how they all fit together and to give you a solid foundation for your chosen path. At SAE, everyone goes through the BMC (Basic Media Certificate) in the first 3 months. This school was the first place that all my creative interests converged and made sense in the larger picture. I was stoked because one of the teachers was an animation lead on Lord Of The Rings. In 2004, I went to SAE Institute (accredited by Middlesex University) for multimedia in Byron Bay, Australia. Since I had some money from an accident when I was younger that was earmarked for college… it seemed like the perfect time. I hit a couple of rough patches after 9-11 and ended up back home for a bit. I didn’t know it then, but all my creative interests were instrumental in my development as a motion designer. I worked as a photographer for several years (real estate and portraiture) and moonlighted as an illustrator and designer. I also had a drum and bass label with my brother and put out a few records in the early 2000s. During this time I went to a lot of shows at the Fireside Bowl and put out some ‘zines and contributed to others. My first time through college, I went to Columbia College Chicago, with a major in illustration and a minor in photography. I tape-traded, put out several fanzines and even had a death metal tape label for a short time. I was deeply involved in skateboarding, hardcore punk, grindcore and death metal in high school. I cut my teeth on design in the underground. Nobody says, “I want to be a motion designer when I grow-up.” TL DR: Like most motion designers, my journey to get where I am today looks more like a bowl of spaghetti than a straight line. So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story. Today we’d like to introduce you to Jerry Nelson.

This re-enables parts like logic boards, top cases, Touch ID, displays, and flash storage. And newer Macs with T2 security chips will not function until a full diagnostic has been run on them after the repair.Īfter a hardware repair, newer Macs with T2 chips require that a separate program, Mac Configuration Utility (MCU), be run while connected to another Mac via USB or Thunderbolt cable. Apple technicians cannot order parts for an Apple device until they’ve run a full diagnostic on the device at least once, even if they already know what needs fixing. Apple’s Authorized Service Provider Manual notes that GSX grants you access to “take-apart, upgrade and repair procedures, basic servicing information, troubleshooting flow charts, product specs, adjustment procedures, and exploded view diagrams with part numbers.” That all certainly sounds like useful information!ĪST 2 isn’t just helpful, it’s mandatory. If something needs fixing or replacing, Apple’s equivalent of iFixit guides are available through the GSX site (check the left-hand column in this screencast). AST 1.5, via Apple Assistenza AvaTech Store/YouTube You can see AST 1 (technically 1.5) in action in this Italian video of a MacBook Air repair. Cycle count is important information that every device owner should have! Unfortunately, Apple has banned apps from their App Store that show cycle counts for mobile devices, creating a cottage industry for apps like Coconut Battery.ĪST 2 is (perhaps obviously) not the first diagnostic app that Apple has made-AST 2’s precursor was a totally different tool, and it’s still used to fix older devices, mostly from 2013 and earlier. One thing to note is that AST 2 provides a cycle count for an iOS device battery. Pretty neat! via iOS MacOS Genius/YouTubeĪST 2 can show you what’s wrong with a device, along with a lot of details you can only see if an Apple Store employee is feeling cavalier and generous. After the access request is approved, a diagnostic tool checks everything: battery, Bluetooth, cameras, sensors, Touch ID, the works. Presumably, there is a workaround for devices with entirely broken screens, likely involving a USB cable, but we haven’t seen it in action. The device gets a request to allow a diagnostic tool to run. Next, you enter the category of problem you’re trying to fix: “Fan,” “Charging,” or the like. The Mac Mini labeled “4” is suggested to provide local copies of boot-up and recovery tools to avoid large, repetitive downloads. A diagram from the Apple Services Toolkit 2 manual, showing the need for a technician’s computer (3) to have an active Global Services Exchange connection (2) to run diagnostics on the device being repaired (1). This remote connectivity is how Apple Store employees can check devices on the store floor, without lugging around cables or computers. You need a device’s serial number, which can be either read off the device in front of you or given to you over the phone. With an account, and certifications installed on your MacBook or iPad, you can then service Apple devices. You can only access AST 2 with an active connection to the web, and an authorized account with Apple’s private Global Services Exchange, or GSX. Once you know that, you can find it mentioned and even pictured in many places: on Apple’s own discussion forums, on PDFs inadvertently posted publicly by university IT help desks ( ahem), or even in the dark corners of YouTube. Apple’s Cloud-Based Diagnostic & Calibration Toolsįirst off, Apple’s diagnostic software has a name: Apple Services Toolkit 2, often abbreviated as AST 2. And take a look at Samsung’s own secret repair app, while we’re at it. What, exactly, can Apple-approved folks do with all this secret software-that-shall-not-be-named? Let’s dive into what we know. We’ve previously written about Apple’s internal diagnostic software, which Right to Repair legislation aims to make available to the rest of us. Instead, Apple’s official repair procedure requires proprietary software tools, available only to Authorized Service Providers and members of Apple’s unlaunched Independent Repair Program. No sacrifices or incantations can overcome this. ![]() Trying to replace core Mac parts can trigger a lock-out. You can do a lot, but in the newest iPhones, you can’t restore Touch ID, install a new battery, or replace a screen without a warning. No mere mortal, lacking Apple’s stamp of approval, can completely fix the company’s products. Edit (11/2/19): This post was updated to clarify and add information on more of Apple’s repair apps. ![]() Routines are incredibly beneficial for any age group, but we have to keep in mind that life isn’t always predictable. Your child will quickly build familiarity with the layout and learn to track where they are in the schedule of events. ![]() Whether you choose laminated routine cards, a bulletin board, a whiteboard, or a wall hanging, stick with it. Lettering should be big and bold to help early readers recognize word shapes. Visual schedules should rely on images, with short, simple phrases like “Go to school,” “Playtime” “Dinner,” etc.
![]() Download QPST (Qualcomm Product Support Tool)īelow, you will find download links for all the available versions of the QPST tool, along with the latest version, which is v2.7.460 (2.7 Build 460). In this guide, we have covered instructions to flash firmware files using both of these programs. You can use either of these two QPST programs depending on the type of firmware file you have. The two main programs of QPST that actually fulfill the purpose of flashing firmware files are ‘Software Download’ and ‘QFIL’. Unlike the Software Download program, QFIL flashes the firmware with. QFIL: Qualcomm Flash Image Loader is another program that allows you to flash stock firmware on supported devices.It also enables you to back up & restore the non-volatile (NV) memory contents of a device. Software Download: This program allows you to flash stock firmware on supported Qualcomm Android devices.Service Programming: This allows you to back up the service programming data to a file and flash the file on multiple devices.QPST Configuration: This allows you to monitor and manage connected/active devices, serial COM ports, and clients.The tool is a combination of various programs, which could be regarded as its features. So, users can use the QPST tool to manually flash firmware files on their Qualcomm Android device (irrespective of the manufacturer) for the purpose of unbricking or simply restoring the stock firmware. So what can a user do if they accidentally hard brick their device? A majority of Android devices from different manufacturers run a Qualcomm chipset, which makes it extremely common. ![]() It could be caused while flashing custom binaries (rooting, installing TWRP, custom ROMs, etc) or even sometimes when restoring the stock firmware due to usage of incompatible or corrupted firmware files. This is generally when a device gets hard-bricked. So, when an Android device cannot boot/enter these modes, flashing the firmware via the corresponding flash tool isn’t possible. For example, the Odin Flash Tool for Samsung devices, Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool for Xiaomi, Redmi, and Poco devices, and so on.īut these tools only work if they can properly communicate with the device over a specific mode/interface, like Fastboot Mode, Download Mode, etc. However, some OEMs also deploy their own proprietary software for flashing firmware files, which are specific to their own devices. Generally, manually flashing the firmware on a majority of OEM Android devices is carried through Fastboot (The official Android command-line tool). Based on what you know about the business and the information you can find online, create the plan to the best of your knowledge. ![]() It’s extremely important to customize your plan to the potential employer’s needs. Dividing your plan into 30-day sections allows you to show growth and progression in the role (hence the namesake). There is a lot to take on with any new job. Digging deeper will show you have the drive to succeed and do things thoroughly. Take the initiative to ask detailed questions. You’re bound to have questions about the assignment.

It can prove you are driven, demonstrate the type of work ethic you have, and exhibit your knowledge of the industry and job.

It seems that she eats pirates, since she belches up their ghosts when she attacks. She becomes more cruel after she is forcefully transformed into a gorgon-mermaid, due to electric eels biting her waist and shocking her.Ĭala also seems to have a strong connection with fish and aquatic animals, as she can summon them at will to help her, and also use the fish as weapons without them apparently caring much. Her first phase death message only helps support this. She may be trying to tempt them in closer and catch them off-guard, so she can attack them. She appears to be trying to seduce Cuphead and Mugman, as seen in her intro where she makes a sweet "yoo-hoo!" sound while fluttering her eyelashes and making a pose. Cala Maria seems to be a flirty and vivacious being. Only the snakes acting as her bangs are active, while the rest are asleep.Ĭala Maria is said to be playful, but not to be trifled with. ![]() The tentacles each transform into menacing-looking snakes with lavender, segmented underbellies, yellow, cat-like eyes, and small fangs and pink forked tongues in their mouths. The most distinctive part of her new form is the octopus on her head, which has now seemingly fused onto her head and has become a marginally different shade of purple. Her once sky-blue sea-shell bra is now a green bikini top which seems to be made from seaweed. Her lower body takes on a more forest-green hue and the scales become sharper and more triangular. Her eyes become menacingly cat-like with yellow sclera and black, slit-shaped pupils, losing the irises completely. The markings on her arm remain unchanged. Her lips turn an emerald-green color, her tongue becomes forked, and her teeth are now quite sharp. Her fingers become longer and more pointy. Her once pale-lavender skin turns to a pale green color. However, in her second phase, Cala Maria gets bitten on her midriff and shocked by two eels, resulting in a much more menacing appearance-a gorgon-mermaid hybrid, greatly resembling the famous mythology figure, Medusa. Although we do not see her full tail in the game, various merchandise has shown that the fluke of her tail is shaped like two small waves split in two with three rounded tips on each side. She also has thin, black eyebrows and rose-pink lips.Īs a sign of her mermaid status, Cala wears a sky-blue seashell bra with no shoulder straps, and her lower body is a sea-green, fish-like tail with round scales, connected with a water-ripple-like pattern below the waist line. Although it appears to be dead, the octopus's eyes clearly open during Cala's "summoning" animation, revealing simple, black pupils.Ĭala has big, pale turquoise eyes with sea-green eyelids and three short, black, triangular eye-lashes each. The octopus clearly acts as her hair since the three tentacles in front of Cala's face are flipped back over her head, resembling curly hair-bangs in a pompadour, while the octopus's head vaguely resembles a hair bun. On her head, she has a dead, purple octopus with pale lavender eyelids over X-crossed eyes, with a lighter purple coloring and pale pink suckers under the tentacles. She has pale skin, a small button-nose, and two scar-like markings on the bicep of her left arm (though how or why she got them is unknown, but it could be a reminiscent of eel bite marks). She is a giant, tall, slender mermaid with fairly wide hips and a small waist. While the game tells a compelling story, it also features a number of puzzles that players will have to solve over the course of its runtime.Cala Maria has a physical appearance reminiscent of a typical humanoid female character. Published by Raw Fury, Call of the Sea is a first-person adventure game that puts players in the shoes of a woman named Norah who is attempting to find her lost husband on a mysterious island. ![]() Starting today and available until next week on March 16th, Call of the Sea is the latest free game that Epic Games Store members can look to pick up. Fortunately, the latest addition to the platform in March is a bit more notable than others we have seen in 2023. While this ongoing promotion always has its ups and downs, most PC users have found the Epic Store's quality of free titles to have been quite weak in recent memory. For the most part, the weekly free offerings on the Epic Games Store over the past month have been pretty lackluster. An award-winning adventure game that initially launched back in 2020 is now free to download for the next week on the Epic Games Store.

The multi-channel recordings were mixed to stereo in order to reduce the CPU and RAM usage when plating the instrument. The samples were carefully edited and denoised. In addition, a pair of room microphones were used to capture the sound from the player’s perspective and another two microphones were placed five meters from the piano to record the room tone. The soundboard was recorded with a pair of closely positioned mics, while the low-end character was captured with another microphone positioned just above the ground. The instrument was recorded with an array of seven microphones. The recording engineers paid special attention to capture the subtle nuances of the sampled piano.
