@Rodney and I were talking last night. AI can make a 3D image of a hammer from a text prompt... But getting it to do that in splines seems undoable.

Ack...I did something a bit too quickly. When opening a project, I was prompted to click on where a model was located. I accidentally clicked on another model by mistake. I quickly exited out of loading the file. However, when I go to open the file now, it doesn't prompt me for the model again. I have now opened the project. Now, it would be simple if my project did not have any animation keyframes for the model that is supposed to be there in the first place. The model I accidentally imported in its place, is associated with the animated keyframes (both models are human bipeds and rigged exactly the same). Is there an easy way to replace the orroneous model with the…

Hello, this avi-file of a rotating blue light is my first own project outside the exercises and tutorials. Of course, it is not of artistic value. But I hope I can learn from your critics and improve my knowledge on animation:master. The most time I spent by fitting the lighting performance so that the blue light looks as real as possible. Best regards, Wolfgang Bluelight.zip

Hi I am trying to get back to animating again. I was messing around and did a few dance moves for my frogman today. Just a little thing but I haven't animated in a looooooong time. That will change though. I'm gonna get back to boot camp on Monday. Got some things to do before then. Then I will do work on TWO. Anyway, it feels good to move bones around again. This one is just for fun but feel free to rip at it. Edit: fixed feet through floor. frogman2.mov

Here's the model I use for test animations. It's a simple model rigged with the setup machine 2. It only has one finger so as long as you don't animate them the actions can transfer to another model rigged with the TSM2. Cheers!!! manaquin_rigged.mdl

My film begins in an attic full of childhood memories. This still shows that it's twilight, and the character has just turned the light on, but she's off-screen still. I may put something outside the window, so far it's just a night-sky-fading sunset gradient. There are also some models here that I could post to the forum, most of them "work" (the rocking horse, scooter, the russian doll opens and the tin toy bear marches around and bangs a drum. The books also all have working pages) The dresser doesn't open though. Ignore the fact that the streamers on the scooter go straight out. I haven't simulated yet. This is just the "set dressing view so far." Seana

It appears that when an object is put into the choreography window, the size of the bounding box and bone have little relationship to the size of the object. Frequently, an object like a house has a box approximately the size of the object. But, on the other hand, a very small object gets a bounding box that would hold Cinncinnati. Case in point: the bridge segment. The bounding box is nearly 300% bigger that the whole project. To put the cursor on the tip of the bone to rotate, I'm zoomed out so far, I can no longer see the object, let alone adjust its position. [ the red dot ids the bridge segment] I could zoom in so it's easily visible, then enter number values to…

Well, it's probably way overdue that I post a WIP thread on this project, so here's what I've got so far: This is the body for one of the two characters. Today I'll be working on modeling the head, texturing and rigging him. The other character is going to be cloned from this completed model. I'll need to make some minor changes to differentiate the two, like the other character will have longer sleeves, a thinner build, some minor tweaks to the face, and different hair/facial hair. But for all intents and purposes, the brunt of the work is going to be done on this character (Rigging, facial setup, etc) and the other character will just be a duplicate. Se…

Got this idea after watch a commecial where bubbles with people fall then the people continue doing something. Thought it might be cool to have a ball or frisbee shape sail through the air and morph into something else with color and shape changes. So I volunteered Thom and did a very rough test will have to play with it a bit more as time allows wrong clip posted thought I had stopped it but I guess not. sorry for any confusion

I've been whittling out a logo these past couple days. It'll be mainly for video production work that I do. I know a flying cardboard box isn't all that glamorous for a company icon, but I liked the idea for some reason. I'm not quite done with the animated version. A:M's giving me a little difficulty with the wings on the box. I'll try to remember to post that when I'm done with it, but for now it's just a picture. Please comment if you wish. Thanks!

Someone was looking for a cheap music program. I found at a used bookstore a program by MAGIX called techno music maker and if I remember right there were other version for other types of music. Anyway you can drop in drums melody and other loops and even produce video effects including in this case a couple of dancers ( I used one) and background effects and I paid a whopping $6.00 Anyway I made a wave file and a video file and got this example using Shaggy and a layer. The animation is bad did about every 10-15 frame poses just to post this sample but if you need a cheap way to produce in this case techno music well look around for something by Ma…

Ok, This was my entry: I made it from Floor Plans that I found on the web. Had I known there would be so many great entries, I'd have used some more elaborate plans, but then I probably wouldn't have had time to finish. Here is the model with no textures, just AO: Nearly all the textures came from CGTextures.com (I believe I used 5 images total). The background image is a photo I took here in the Hudson Valley. I had planned to do some landscaping with plants, but something went wrong somehow with the choreography file, and Cookie cuts wouldn't render right. I tried to reproduce the results in test choreographies, but sometimes I could, someti…

Is there any way of posting an Image Contest Entry before the judging ends to get feedback on improving it? I am assuming that a general post will disqualify the image since it would link artist and image. Even a partial post of the image would probably do the same. I'm not happy with my characters eyes and need advice/guidance on improving them. Cheers
