Thanks Robert. The idea behind the use of photographed scenery was based under the concept of how back in the old days animators drew animated character cels and layed them on top of the hand painted backgrounds, as well as from how "The Adventures of Andre and Wally B" was done (rendering the characters seperately from the backgrounds, both of which were done using computer graphics). It also came from the fact that enviroment modeling is the most challenging part from my experience and the hardest thing for me is to model nice and realistic looking buildings, enviroments, as well as complex mechanical objects and parts, where I need a lot of practice. I really enjoy modeling and sometimes designing characters however, especialy cartoony ones.

Thank you. I'm glad you like it.

While I was somewhat active on this forum, I was also creating alot of things I've never shared with you, until now. I was (and I still am) using Animation: Master for many years to create 3D work. I was also learning other animation software as well and I think I have improved my knowledge for animation in general alot since then. Here are some of my best projects I created using Animation: Master. I should also mention that only the first of the five animated projects I created has subtitles. 2015 This animated short film was created to show some of the most exciting attractions of my city, Drama, located in Greece. 2016 In this advertisement, made for both TV and internet, I was responsible for creating and presenting a new mascot for Oniroupole (dreamtown), which is a Christmas village that is built every winter in my city’s park and is a famous touristic attraction. 2019 Some of the contemporary saints and the great things they did. All of the theological projects here were created for the School of Theology of the Aristotele University of Thessaloniki. 2020 Here is saint Patrick saying "Thank you, deeply". This animation was part of a PowerPoint project. 2021 A synopsis of saint Dimirtios' life.

Thanks for your help, Rodney.

Hello. I just returned to the A:M Forum because something weird happend to my 3D viewport. A red font apeared on my screen (I don't even know what I pressed, but it suppose was a big mistake and I know it has to do with keyfreaming). I think this is a very stupid question but how do I get that off? I would be glad if you could explain to me. If I'm not very clear, here's the thing Im talking about.

Thanks, Rodney. It was a great help.

I once heard you could download Jeff Lew's "Learning Character Animation" (his 3 character models) from his wbsite, without having bought the DVD set. As his website is closed (I think), I'd like to know if someone has a coppy of them. could you plese send those 3D models to my pofile? Thanks!

In 14/5/2 I finished working in this short film. I hope you'll like it as much as I enjoyed making it. Thank you. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/77455331/Destroyed%20Neighbourhoods.AVI

Unfortunately, nothing worked at all. Even at the simplest scenes I get the same problem!

If anyone remembers the short film I was working on in 2013, I'd like to inform you that it's finaly finished (14/5/2). I hope you'll like it as much as I enjoyed making it. Thank you. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/77455331/Destroyed%20Neighbourhoods.AVI

1) That's what hapened when I pressed "OK". Is this a bug report or what? 2) There are also the render settings I used.

Now I also tried to have ".TGA" image sequences but again It didn't work!

Practicly I'm using 18.0b SSE4 now. But yes i used (uncompressed) but it didn't work. Weird, isn't it? By the way, I had almost 3 whole months to render videos. I suppose that's the problem. And yes I do have RAM.

For some reason, when I rendered the scene in ".Avi" A:M was crashing a lot! And so I felt I had to ask you what's wrong in that. I also posted a screenshot of a frame I captured inside the software (using Render Mode "Q").

Rig: http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?act=SF&s=&f=136 Great! Hope somebody gets a kick out of it. And hey, if you do rig the model, upload it here, so other folks can play with it.
