Hey everyone, here's a quick update to The Shahnra Project 2 trailer, it's 7.9 megs, it grows in size as I add more animation clips:-) but have a look if ya have time. Remember this is in rough edit mode, that means just showing some of the clips, it's not the finished trailer etc. http://www.phase2.net/claygraphics/shahnra2trailertest1.html Also you may have to download the Quicktime 5 player to view it CHEERS!!!

You are truly the Bryce Animation Master, dude! It's been a while since I saw something that made me think "How the heck did he do that"? Seriously great work. AgentSmith

Fantastic animation Clay. Truly great, inspiring work. Thanks! -AA

wow, this one is even better! how about some animation tutorial??? I would love to learn how to do animation in bryce

yeah... how bouts an animation tutorial ??? this is really great stuff.... can't wait and see the final (?) project. bob

Great peice, clay! I only wished it went a little slower, so I could scrutinize all the scenes easier. Thanks for sharing your work! big_hoovie

What else can be said.... it is a fantastic work... 8-)

Cool Clay, however my question is what settings did you use for your compression? Looks like you found a good trade off between quality and file size. Later, Phillip

I used Media Cleaner Pro software to compress the final renderings, with an mpg codec, I always render with no compression at 15 frames a second and as a Quicktime .mov file then use Media Cleaner to compress it once so there is no generation loss in the quality, When I get all the clips edited together for final compression it will be at a higher quality setting so it'll look a lot better than it does right now..

I want to be like Clay! I have to say that you last post inspired me to try an animation, but it is nothing compared to this. Thanks for the inspiration though and a goal to shoot for. We're not worthy!

have to say that I agree with "unclebob", an animation tutorial including tips on file compression from Clay would be quite handy. :)

I must say that my jaw hit the floor when I saw this! I can safely say that this proves Bryce can do Pro quality animation( or rather it can when an inspired artist such as yourself is at the helm!) Brilliant work, and I love the soundtrack as well. Thanks for an eye-opening lesson!
