AR Production

Hello again! I’m Jakob Hahn and I have another update for you all, and I’m not going to lie, this TikTok filter has really put me through the ringer. Have you heard of the Dunning-Kruger Effect? If you haven’t, it can best be described by a graph like so. The effect focuses on a person’s confidence in a skill and their time spent on the skill. At the beginning of this project, I was at the “Peak of ‘Mount Stupid.’” I had very little experience with the Effect House program but my small little tests made me think this whole thing was easy; that the program would do everything for me. This feeling was extremely short-lived. As I started actually working on my filter, a sort of “True or False” type quiz on trees, I instantly realized that I was way in over my head. Once I realized this, I immediately joined the official Effect House Discord community to get some help and that really eased my nerves. I was able to find a “head tilting” template to base my project off and I started to learn more about Effect House’s pros and cons. Climbing out of the “Valley of Despair” has been a hard journey, but I think I’m starting to see a light at the end of this TikTok Tunnel.
