My very first animation was an airplane taking off. I was done in Bryce, but It is a very good for someone who is starting to learn. Make a runway by stretching a black box. Find some simple Poser trees and buildings and place them so the camera has something in the background. Remember that if the camera doesn't see it then you are just adding to the rendering time. Not only should the airplane move and turn but the camera too. If you do this in Poser open the animation controls and edit in the airplanes roll. Have fun. Dale
