Hi

I'm trying to make a animated film using Poser 6.
I have done things like this in the past only shorter.

What I'm doing is an animation of a character talking to the camera.

A brief history of my experiences so you know what I'm doing.

I found a long time ago that I can not import poser files with sound into Adobe Premiere, I spent a lot of time on the Adobe Forum on that one.

So what I do is create the Mimic pose file for the lipsync, then I import it into Poser and create my animation with the lipsync.  I then remove the sound file, make the AVI file with no sound and open it in Premiere and then import original sound file.  

The files sync up fine and I then ad the rest of the video clips, sounds, transitions, etc.

The problem this time it that my animation is 3,400 frames.
This is longer then I have done in one piece in the past.

It will not complete making the AVI file no matter what I do.
When it wouldn't do the whole thing, I decided to do it in sections.
I did this by telling it what frames to write in the make movie dialog ie. 1 through 850 etc.

I did frame 1 through 850, no problem, then 851 through 1700.
Now the problem, no matter how I do this it stops at frame 2,392.
I cant make it go beyond this point.

Before I start all over and divide the original sound file in half make new Mimic files, and do the whole thing over in two parts each 1700 frames long, I though I would ask here if anyone has any idea what's going on and how I could save the work I have already done.

My computer shouldn't have any problems with this Core i7 3 GHz, 12 Gigs of ram, 2 TB disk space etc.

Anyone have any ideas?

If you shoot a mime, do you need a silencer?
