Hi Mark..
Just had a look through of some list mails..and found this one again..
Just got curious.. did you finish that anim ?, did you post it on the list
and I missed it ?
would be very cool to see it...
TIA
Take Care

@ fruit animation
Is there some "in between" to look at :-?

Slow but steady progress... here is a little storyboard I made (sorry for
the Dutch text), still confidential, I'll show the final version after my
video partner (who proposed the whole project) has edited everything and
added sound. I'll start churning out the HD renders tomorrow.
I'm now probably at 60% of the animation handywork, man it's hard to make
it
look not too computerish but alive! A lot of choreograph curve editing
too.
For the pineapple, I'm animating a nurbs curve that has the whole
pineapple
plus a lattice cage attached to it. This cage I'm using to animate the
leaves separately. It's also the perfect tool to squeeze the fruits into
the
small bottle - if we decide to do that shot. What a great tool: the
lattice
cage! Even for modeling it could be very useful.
The banana is simpler: just a lattice mapped SDS object. Much better to
animate a simple nurbs curve than a bunch of SDS points!
Thanks for the interest,
-Mark
