no I read something about this recently! 

it is a combination of: 

projectionists used to well trained union workers now they are mostly some guy who works in the cinema and hits play without adjusting any levels

boom operators aren’t allowed to get in as close as they used to and miking performers well isn’t routinely done

 directors don’t appreciate setting up and getting good sound on the day sound on the day assuming everything can be fixed in post (it can’t)

sound operators who say ‘hey actually we need one more take of that for sound’ are routinely ignored

tight turnaround and schedules means that the noisier equipment (generators etc) is set up closer and closer to where they’re filming so mixers have to try hide the sound of noisy diesel engines etc that the mics are picking up

a mumble style of delivery is increasingly popular among actors who want to appear naturalistic on screen

film and television is very much considered a visual medium so directors are trained to think of visuals first when filming and sound last

Here's Why Movie Dialogue Has Gotten More Difficult To Understand (And Three Ways To Fix It)

/Film spoke with several Oscar-winning sound designers, editors, and mixers to learn why it has become tougher to understand what characters

Size comparison of Y’gathok, the Ceaseless Hunger and Bjorn, our level 20 Goliath Barbarian.

Hey quick question: why the FUCK do you have that

Imagine, from out of nowhere, your dm casually slapping this thing down on the table like any other encounter.

“Yeah, the fight will start in a sec, uh…I’ll give inspiration to whomever helps me get this fucking box out of my car.”

https://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/7asxci/oc_ygathok_the_ceaseless_hunger_final_boss_of_our/

This is the reveal of this ridiculousness during their game

Please watch this reveal video it’s kickass

FUCK ME  the reveal video

“CHRIS??????”

“Um, I don’t think our plan is gonna work.”

Always reblog Y'gathok

DM:*Pulls out Y’gothok* *Turns on “Open Your Heart” by Crush 40*

Wow that DM really goes above and beyond

Reblogging Ygathok because it’s been one year since we fought him!!!! It just popped up on my timeline today!

Happy one year anniversary, our precious Old God boi!!!

One year ago today, this boy was revealed.

And for you guys, I have great news: I have the stats of Y’gathok complete and a general design for “how to use him” done. However, an adventure guide is incoming to teach you how to integrate him into any of your worlds!

I will mash that Reblog button every single time this shows up on my dash. I spent a lot of years martyring myself for “the needs of the business.” Young people? Don’t fucking do it. They don’t care about you, you are a “resource,” not a human being. I can’t say this strongly enough: see to your self-care!
