Only 10 seconds, but it was lot of fun to make. Hellvira's voice is provided by my wife Lynda. Nerd

Beautiful work. Gotta love that Cloth Room. How'd you animate the ground mist?

My Fog Tool. Just slowly translated the whole fog bank on the X axis. Yup, the cloth room just rocks. Nerd

I suspected that was how you did it, but was hoping you had an animated transmap. :) Think there would be much of a market for animated materials? I've got a copy of particleIllusion sitting here that I haven't even installed yet. After I've figured out the interface, I should be able to create effects that can easily be applied in Poser 5 through the Movie shader.

For some things the efect on a trans map works great, but there is no depth. You don't see it really well in this animation because the camera is fixed. If the camera was moving (Especially in a crane shot) the fog effect would jump off the screen because of its depth. Plus this is all done inside Poser. Nerd
