Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

you can probably look up the art terms you need directly in WordRef?

there's no French-specific art vocab, English will have the same

[spice basalt]

There's also lexiques/glossaires for whatever subject you might want

[rigid pike]

Yeah i was mostly curious because there are some words in an English context used in the art community. Here's some examples of what i mean.

WIP, Skeb, nsfw, line of action, backgrounds, tweening, pixel,

[opaque basalt]

yeah that's the kind of thing you can search for on a case-by-case basis. Or through glossaries like alby said

(nsfw and pixel are the same, btw)

[spice basalt]

Tweening can be used though im not sure if interpolation is more common

[opaque basalt]

I've never seen that term in either language

[spice basalt]

It's animation specific

A type of animation

[rigid pike]

Ah I see. I'll try to find a glossary that would. Im just worried when the time comes and I have to help someone with their digital drawing program but I don't know the basic terms

[spice basalt]

When you make key frames and then fill in the "between" frames instead of drawing frame by frame

[opaque basalt]

I have 92% of the animation knowledge required to fully understand this I'm afraid

[opaque basalt]

using French-language media that discuss art can help too

[opaque basalt]

I see

[rigid pike]

Oh what do you recommend cause I remember seeing a Natif doing a tutorial on blender

[opaque basalt]

no idea, I don't watch French-language media

[opaque basalt]

it's probably been asked on our subreddit before though. And you can search for specific topics in YT in French

gotta French up that algorithm hehe

[rigid pike]

Yeah lol. Its mostly been online fr commentary channels

[rigid pike]

Im seeing alot of traditional art terms which is a good start but if feels like they're mostly focusing on academic fine art stuff. Also not really alot of digital art terms either

[spice basalt]

I mean you can add whatever you need in terms of precision, numérique is the term for digital
Ultimately the terms you're looking for are likely so specific that your best bet is looking them up individually and/or finding media or communities talking about it
