Thank you Tom. I appreciate you and Max at least reigning me in and not letting me expect the impossible. But then again, that is why I asked.
I know I cannot make things look exact, but I just want to move away from the all-too-obvious CGI model look.
Besides toning down the reflections and trying to take out a lot of the "shiny look" that the models tend to have, I was considering modeling the characters in Poser over a green screen. Then I could apply them over a background image of the room in Premiere. The upside of doing things this way is I could use some of the Premiere filters directly on the Poser animations. By taking down the contrast, or doing something else to create a "fuzzy look" I think I can move another baby step away from the obvious CGI and toward blending with camcorder footage.
I appreciate all the help everyone has provided...hey it's only 5 am where I am! Anyone with ideas please add them to the thread, or IM them to me.
Thanks again
Terri
