itsjustme Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 The system is still not excepting my attachment. Maybe if you put it in a ZIP file it will take it...sometimes it's the file type, sometimes it's just too large of a file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeJay Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 My ultimate advice: buy a bling-bling mirror! Althoug your family might think you're addicted to cocain now it'll definitely improve your facial animation. Definitely.

Even went back to Internet Explore ver# 6 as ver# 7 has some inssues with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenH Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 It needs to be smaller than 3mb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbjohnsn Posted November 26, 2006 Author Share Posted November 26, 2006 It needs to be smaller than 3mb. Thanks for the info. When I saw "Global Space Left: unlimited space" next to the file upload I was concerned about the size. The file is in MOV format. I'll need to rerender it in AVI which will make it a third of the size. It will take sometime though, as a final rendering takes forever, 12 hr plus.

Dhar Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Did you use compression setting Sorensen3 for your mov format? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bigboote Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 NO! You should not need to re-render the file! I hope I am not too late! Leave it as a .mov (QT) This forum prefers QT, and as Dhar said use Sorenson3 compression. You will need to make a new project, import the 'big' file and drop it on the camera, set the camera's output to 320X240 and look for sorenson3 in the compression dialogue- render it that way.

John, you just went way over my head. I started a new project. The only place I saw to import the big file was under images. Am I on track so fare? I am not sure where the camera is you speak of. A little more directions please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Rodney Posted November 26, 2006 Admin Share Posted November 26, 2006 John's (er... Matt's that is) example is one way to do it but there is an easier way now. If you've got your animation in A:M as a squential image/movie just Right Click and Save As Animation. Make sure you locate and change the settings as desired. Sorensen 3 for instance will be an option as long as that codec is installed on your system. The Camera Rotoscoping method is still useful. Especially if you want to create an edited version of your movie pans across the image you already have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume it is possible using your methode you can conver to any of the formats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From here you can see the different renderings I've done in AM.

Admin Rodney Posted November 27, 2006 Admin Share Posted November 27, 2006 Dick, That's pretty cool. You've obviously put some time into your lip sync (and modeling!) effort. Keep that up and you'll be wowing everyone in no time. There is some interest in lipsync currently in the New Users Forum (Exercise 7 and especially 13). While I'm not sure how much time I have to devote to it I'd love to see more explored on the subject here in the forum. If others post their Q&A in those TaoA:M areas I'll try to do my part too. At any rate... keep on keepin' on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
