Hi again

I have learned a lot in the last year, so I've just started redoing all the animations that I did in Poser 6, I'm now using Poser 9.

I originally worked in Poser 6, and Poser 8 and 9 will allow you to create much higher quality Preview Renders then 6 would. There were virtually no options in P6.

It really isn't practical to do video using Firefly rendering.  It just takes to long to render 3 or 4 thousand frames.  With Poser 8 or 9 you can get very high quality renders from the Preview mode and I can render 1,000 frames in 10 minutes or less.

I'm just finishing up the redo of the first complete video that I did and I'll post a link to it here in the next couple of days so come back and take a look.

To day I was watching an old Outer Limits episode on TV, I couldn't help thinking that I can do better special effects then they did then on my PC.

I'm including a link to videos that I did to test different techniques, some of them are 3D anaglyphs and not videos.  These were all done in Poser 6 except the lip sync comparison it was done in both, and the legs image was done by someone else I just liked it a lot, as you can see my other thing is 3D, eventually I want to make complete 3D videos.

But this is the kind of thing you can do to start with, and go from there into a real videos.  Don't try and make them too long to start with a couple of hundred frams is enough to get he hang of it.  Rember to think time, 120 frames is 4 seconds so the frames add up really fast. A 3 minute video is a big project.

For what it's worth I now output all my video at 1600 by 900 (one reason for doing everything over is the switch to wide screen) and then edit it in Adobe Premiere Elements 9.  You can output it from there at what ever you want depending on how you are going to use it.
