10-4 kupa, I will definitely send you a link when I have some final scenes to show, and the tradeshow thing - you're on. :) wolf, best of luck to you also, and if you need any help with anything, let me know, I'm just down the road from ya in Charlotte. (oh, and got your cd in the mail btw, great music!) And folks, it doesn't take a huge budget to do something even halfway comparable to Final Fantasy. Obviously I'm not looking at that kind of polygon count, and I'm doing it all myself on 2 year-old Windows desktops and a '98 iMac, but why can't we be ambitious and bark up that tree? (grin) We've all seen the excellent photo-realistic stills that can be done in Poser even without postwork. (look at Catherina Prezak's characters for Mike...) You just need quality models and textures, (and among other things, patience and practice in Poser) and a dedicated machine or two to render animations OF those stills. And remember B5 was done on old Amiga's... I've spent only enough money to buy 2 pc's and a few models so far, and probably will only be spending about $300-500 in the next few weeks to get the remainder of the models I need. It truly is amazing what you can do on a budget if your determination is strong enough. and $300 is a lot of money for me right now, but it's pretty ridiculous in filmmaking terms. The hardest thing for me is the dialog, and there is some amazing software that will speak and/or sing your text. It works for some things, others it just doesn't, so I am working with student voice actors and friends for the voices. Burgers and beer go a long way, and are easier on the wallet.... ;) wolf, if your story is anything as interesting as the lyrics and music on your cd, then I can tell it should be one awesome movie! --silver
