Thanks for the feedback, my wife isn't much of a critique. "Nice" is about all I get out of her. Yeah, I have to watch what I say about this here beaver, half of what I type gets the edit. I'm thinking about filming a creek by the house and running the quicktime over a plane or cube as a rotoscope... then the pebble texture under. The movie would have to be semi-transparent...but it would give me annimated water. It seems to me that there are two schools of thought with many of these images. Some 3Drs feel a scene should have objects and textures that are 100% computer generated - hand made. The other school uses photos, scans, digital movies, etc. to populate their scenes. What do people think about this observation? R.
