    I have been with AM since v8.5 because I like what AM got to offer. For four year in the class part time as student using AM only for my project, I finally convince my teacher to get two copy of Animation Master Education version bundle because it better learning tool for animation and to bad the school still use 3dmax.

     

    The sad thing about 3dmax is to advance for a lot of student and 14 out of 20 students only know modeling, material and move only polygon (not bone) for animation. Not one (that including teacher) in the class know the principle from modeling, bone, rig, material, lighting and animation.

     

    Right now the student is modeling a car or object and within the next 3 week they will start on character modeling. If I know the class very well, they won’t get far, after they finish the class. They know how to use many poly and put together to model a character and animated the poly (not bone) and they will get a cheap A or B grade in the class for that.

     

    I have nothing against 3dmax it a great tool for FX and the sad thing about 3dmax is it need plug in for character animation. I know there are many animators out there are good and you guy like to break it down and do every thing manually not automatic rigging. That my friend is what makes you computer animator master.

     

    So far I started to understand modeling, bone, and rig. I don’t know material and animation yet so I can’t give a good demo. I just wondering do you know anyone who live in Phoenix Arizona know Animation Master pretty well could give a demo to the class? Do you have any idea, how to make the student like using animation master instead of 3dmax? Please e-mail at sfx3d2002@cox.net. Thank You

    It could be the graphic card but don't blame on AM but do test on other older computer or other computer. It could be many reason, the motherboard and the graphic card don't work well with each other. Sound like you have good computer but okay graphic card. Do update the graphic card driver and latest direct X. It work find on my computer. it a P4 2.g and 256dram and ati 8500dv all in wonder graphic card.

    video capture tutorial software know any?

    in (2003-2004)

    Thank for the info Richair I will go get the APC magazine tomorrow at books store. I hope they have it. :unsure: So far I have test all three video capture program.

     

     

    camstudio 2.2.

    The good thing about it is it free.

    The only good codec is microsoft video 1 and it capture at 6 fps very good quality at 800x600 with audio (PCM at lowest quality). 1 minute of video and the size is 26 meg so 60 min is 1.56 gig.

     

    After that you have to get QT pro ($29) and export it using Sorenson Video 3 and audio choose the lowest. You have to mess around with the codec.

     

    Also you might want to find a video editing software that convert avi to DivX pro($20) and use MP3 audio at the lowest.

     

     

    Camtasia: ($300)

     

    it the same as camstudio but I like Camtasia extra software that allow me video edit the avi without slowing my computer down much and export it as qt or other codec with easy..

     

    River past screen capture ($40)

     

    is pretty nice too. One of the codec I have try is indeo video compression 5.10 (it an option appear in river pass screen capture) and it the best so far at a very small file size (render in real time) but it only capture at 3 fps. 800x600 capture with very low audio and 1 min = 2.5 meg so about 60 min= 150 meg. The only down side is it disable double click on your computer when you use riverpast screen capture.

     

    There a lot of codec out there and no time to test it all. Is there anyone out there try all the codec out there? is there any codec that is free and good. I have on2 v3 and that is for quicktime and so far that is the best.
