Here's a frame from a fractal animation segement. The blur was achieved using Lightwave - something UF 4 does out of the box. The theme of biocursion is very "basic" fractal patterns. Very few animations use filters - and none are layered (I can a possible contributor with some layered animations, but deal hasn't gone through yet). The original basis for this was back in the ealy '90s when I saw my first poster of a mandelbrot - I'd study it for long periods of time. 2-4 of the biocurion segments are pretty slow paced, giving you time to really see the set. The animation clips on the site are two examples of some non-basic fractals.

Thanks for the positive comments. I'm planning on setting up an ecommerce site prior to release. It's not a priority since there are still two key animations (non-fractal) left to complete and render. Biocursion is set for release on Sept 14th. So far, there's no indication this won't happen. Attached is a frame from a rough draft (only lighting needs attention - mainly to get rid of the hard-edged shadows) Eric

I just downloaded the eval version. After using Ultra Fractal for several years, animation was one option sorely missed. This has everything I wanted. One amazing option that breathes life into animations is motion blur. It looks like a vector map is being used, but at 50% and high quality - it looks flawless. If you're not sure it's worth it - render an animation (using the 'render to disk' option) without motion blur. Then re-render with motion blur applied. You'll never go back. I can't report on bugs - too soon. Eric www.biocursion.com
