Back-to-One

Blocking apps stop after the blocking. This one doesn't.

What it does

Back-to-One is a blocking and shot list tool for directors and cinematographers, built by a working TV director. Place actors, cameras and lights on a top-down canvas, and the shot list comes out grouped by camera setup, with time estimates that add up to a day and shots you tick off live on set. Dim and red-light modes keep it readable on a blacked-out stage. For iPad and Mac, synced through iCloud, no account and no tracking.

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
