"is that how you do it? I didn't know you could feed a movie into the IBL mechanism." From what I understand, you can use just about anything as an IBL mechanism. From still images, to movies, to animated procedural textures. I haven't tried all of these meathods yet (I've been converting my HDRI probes to .jpg and using those), but I'm pretty certain it will work. "So if I attach a 600 frame AVI into a 600 frame pz3, Poser will light each frame of it's animation with a corresponding frame of the the AVI" That's the idea, yes. You may have to add and animate a few extra point or spot lights seperately to produce specularity, etc., but it should work. You can even make it more convincing by using a "forest" light gel on a different light, to simulate the shadows of leaves in the forest canopy on your character. With some creative forethought, you can pull it off quite convincingly. I personally haven't tried adding an animation or movie file as an IBL yet, but again... it SHOULD work as planned. I'll try it out when I have some extra time.
