30 Rock

A community for the fans and critics of the show 30 Rock.

Discussion of the show, pictures from the show and anything else 30 Rock related.

Rules:

  1. All DubVee instance rules apply. See the sidebar at https://dubvee.org. Those are pretty comprehensive, so we don't really need to add much to those.
  2. No politics outside of what's referenced on the show. Let's leave that drama elsewhere since there's plenty of it.
  3. All posts must be 30 Rock related or adjacent. You dummies are awesome, so I don't think I've ever had to mod any posts for this, but codifying it for good measure.
  4. Less a rule and more of a guideline, but please try to provide alt text if your instance + client combination support it. If not, then please try to make an effort to provide a description of any image posts in the post body.
  5. Don't make fun of people for misusing dated cultural references. Are we all cowabunga on this?
  6. No talking about Krang. It would be a waste of time to talk about Krang on ~~television~~ the internet.

Congratulations. Thanks to this post, after today I may never type a comment ever again on any platform. I just speak Meme now, the Fey-Carlock dialect.

I still have dozens more in my list to make, so you can count on your vocabulary expanding soon!

What's your process for making these works of.art?

  1. Rip the Blu-rays to my computer
  2. Import the appropriate episode into Kdenlive (video editor)
  3. Cut the video down to just the clip that I want
  4. Add the text as a "title clip"
  5. Use a combination of a number of Effects to animate the text
    • BoxBlur
    • Crop, Scale and Tilt
    • Distort
    • Transform
  6. Export as an MP4 file
  7. Use ffmpeg to convert the MP4 to a looping WEBP

I also occasionally use GIMP to create a particular asset to use in the video (like the stamp in the "request denied" GIF above) or use the infinite loop illusion technique that I outlined in this tutorial: https://feddit.org/post/6015807
