Pratique du Shadowing: So I Decorated Cycles X By @Vortrox! - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo
Création de la leçon...
1
So Vertrox made a creator contest for his level called Cycles X,
2
which is a super buff of Cycles,
3
you know, you probably know that.
4
So I, Geo, also known as Da Vinci from GD,
5
I'm going to participate.
6
So have a seat, get your popcorn,
7
because right now I'm gonna show the process of creating this insane part.
8
This is the part available for the creator contest,
9
and immediately when I saw this,
10
I already had the entire decoration in mind.
11
I just had to execute it,
12
which is the real problem.
13
Mostly because I imagined something purple and like maybe orange
14
or yellow and I'm just terrible at working with colors I usually make either monochromatic or rainbow levels,
15
so it's gonna be a real challenge, but it's fine.
16
Let's go Okay, so we got the groups and colors right here.
17
So let's begin setting up the colors I was recording this very late.
18
Please ignore my quiet voice.
19
Okay, so we got everything I think we can definitely work with that So I went to make this structure first,
20
but I for some reason tried to play test the level just to see how it plays and Oh my god,
21
this gameplay is mysterious, I'd say.
22
I'm really not understanding what is happening here.
23
I wish you good luck on this, Vortrox.
24
This gameplay is cancerous.
25
Anyways, that's the structuring I'm gonna decorate.
26
And then I started to fill the block design with these little orange blocks.
27
Because my idea was basically make some running lava inside of them.
28
So I went to make exactly that.
29
So I made this kind of gradient inside of the blocks.
30
And then added some pulses to make the lava effect.
31
Simple and effective.
32
That's the real deal.
33
Wait, it didn't stop there.
34
I needed to make it shine, just like real lava.
35
So yeah, glow everywhere, please.
36
It is looking like this.
37
Kinda cool, but there's a lot more work to do.
38
So I went to make the spike and it was very simple.
39
I kind of followed the same idea of the block design,
40
making the line purple and the inside yellow, shiny yellow.
41
And it looks absolutely fantastic in my opinion.
42
Very easy to copy and paste,
43
and it matches the other elements of the decoration perfectly.
44
So I made that perfectly well-made 3D as always,
45
and the whole base of the structure is done.
46
To finish it, I just had to execute the main idea that I said it was in mind earlier,
47
which was simply to make a portal to space.
48
Yeah, I swear to God I was sober when I came up with this.
49
So I made this magic kerosene right now.
50
Wow.
51
Oh, look at this.
52
Wow.
53
Then I created these rotating particles to give an impression that uh, it's a portal.
54
Then after some polishing and final touches, that's the result.
55
Okay, this completely changed everything.
56
Now this is looking really good.
57
I agree with you, Geo from the past.
58
The block was done and ready to be copy and pasted everywhere.
59
But for some reason I tried some effects that got terrible.
60
Just ignore this part of the video.
61
Club set monster time.
62
I gotta be honest right now.
63
I didn't have any design ideas for him.
64
He's just like, I don't even know what's up with him.
65
He's just sad.
66
That may be the reason.
67
So I made the most simple thing ever.
68
I just left him without textures.
69
But at least he got a cool background and an area effect.
70
Fancy.
71
And that's the club set monster for now.
72
Because I tried tweaking the atmosphere a bit.
73
But honestly, most of the changes turned out really bad.
74
The only thing I actually liked was this hexagon thing.
75
I'm definitely keeping it.
76
So yeah, that's how the part is looking at the moment.
77
Trust me, this level is really hard.
78
I'm not that bad.
79
This part.
80
What do I even do here?
81
I had no better idea than making a guess what?
82
I know exactly what you're thinking.
83
Something related to space maybe?
84
Well, almost, but actually a magma castle.
85
Uh, what's wrong? Was it not close?
86
Uh, okay.
87
So I made this insane 3D magma spike block.
88
That looks kind of decent, I guess.
89
And started a crazy castle structure right there.
90
So I made some holes to show that it's actually an ancient castle that fell apart a long time ago,
91
filled it with black blocks,
92
added details in every corner,
93
and to make it really look like a castle,
94
I used some of these objects right here that give it a cool,
95
you know, like brick texture.
96
Then I added some spikes like this,
97
and boom, that's good for now.
98
But honestly, I'm missing something right here.
99
Where's the lava?
100
Well, let's add it.
101
The object I picked was this new lava from 2.2 that's way smoother than the other one.
102
And here it is, really simple, but looking like lava.
103
That's our objective.
104
Then I made the background of the castle,
105
of course, and that's it.
106
Oh, I almost forgot about something.
107
I tried placing some lava inside the holes in the wall and YO!
108
I was not expecting this result.
109
That's part of the design now, I don't care.
110
After that, basically the whole base of the part was done.
111
I just had to polish it,
112
add movement, make some cool details like these signs and this arrow,
113
and copy and paste the last structures.
114
After doing all that, this is how it looks like.
115
The only thing that was bothering me now was the atmosphere.
116
I made this provisional one just to see how it would look so I could improve it later.
117
And apparently, later is now.
118
So I deleted all that ugly stuff, ugh, That's terrible.
119
And tried some glowy lights, but...
120
That's terrible.
121
So I quickly got rid of it and just added a gradient trigger.
122
That's all I need.
123
But I was still thinking everything felt a bit too empty.
124
To fix this problem, I tried these connectors with some glowy objects and spammed all over the place.
125
And they ended up being a really good touch for the part.
126
Look at this.
127
A lot better.
128
The only little guy that wasn't decorated yet was him.
129
Mr. Fitzgerald.
130
I'm going faster now because there's literally nothing I can say about it.
131
I just made the exact same thing I previously made with that other monster but with this cool effect behind them.
132
That's all about it, but at least it turned out great!
133
Okay, so it's almost done.
134
I'm doing a good job, I think.
135
Now I think it's 100% done.
136
Let's see.
137
Oh, not 100% because I remembered the background,
138
but yes, it's like mostly done.
139
Now to actually finish this part,
140
we just needed some background, which was a particle.
141
I'm not very good at backgrounds as you can see, sorry.
142
But yeah, it's just some starts with a parallax effect.
143
And finally after some polishing the part was finally done.
144
Look at this little Geo taking a bath on lava I hope Fortrux likes it as much as I'm like now.
145
Yeah, that's the scary part.
146
Let's see.
147
All right next up is 1370.
148
I'm so excited for this level.
149
Chat, I, me too, I am so incredibly excited for this.
150
This level is gonna be so good, bro.
151
It already is.
152
It already is.
153
Oh, this one's cool.
154
Oh my god, it's Halloween.
155
Halloween!
156
It's Halloween!
157
What I will say though,
158
this leans into the orange a little too heavily, I think.
159
That was definitely a choice.
160
And the lava's cool.
161
I absolutely love this, but I will just say,
162
I don't know if this style totally fits,
163
because the orange is very like,
164
you know what I'm saying?
165
Please, please, please make a Halloween level with these colors.
166
Yeah, but isn't this a...
167
Oh yeah, this guy makes Jump Dredge videos.
168
Yeah, that's dope.
169
Yeah, I like his icon, that's fun.
170
Yeah, I would say that part doesn't quite fit,
171
but it is very cool.
172
Absolutely.
173
I absolutely gonna keep that in mind.
174
Super good, but the orange just doesn't really fit.
175
That's what I would say.
176
I completely understand.
177
I didn't check the other parts before.
178
Yeah, sometimes I'm really dumb.
179
Yeah, again, this part, right away,
180
the orange just doesn't really fit,
181
but I like everything else about it.
182
The lava's a cool idea.
183
Yeah, that's a good one.
184
And when I played it in the editor,
185
it's a little bit dark, too.
186
Definitely good, though.
187
Love that one.
188
W-G-O-G-D.
189
I got eliminated, but honestly, for a fair reason.
190
But still, the crazy amount of extremely well-made entries was insane.
191
The competitors did an amazing job, and the winner...
192
Vjolt?
193
Vjolt?
194
I don't know.
195
Totally deserved it.
196
Just look at this part.
197
It's just awesome and fits the level perfectly.
198
But there is still a question in the air.
199
How would my part look if it had the right colors?
200
I don't really know what the right colors are exactly.
201
So I replaced the orange with pink.
202
So before finishing the video,
203
thank you so much for watching.
204
Here's thanks to Vortrex for the compliments.
205
And here's a showcase of the two versions of my part.
206
See you in the next video.
207
Oh, and I forgot to mention that we finally got to 100,000 subscribers in only four months.
208
Which is absolutely insane for me.
209
So thank you so much everyone now I can finally finish the video!
210
I'm sorry.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
