TITLE: Beetle Juice Factory COUNTRY: Poland WEBPAGE: www.bigfoot.com/~kgarus or kolos.math.uni.lodz.pl/~garusk RENDERER USED: Povray 3.1 TOOLS USED: before rendering: Paint Shop Pro 5.0 (labels) after rendefing: Fast Movie Processor 1.2 (tga => avi) LSX MPEG Encoder (avi => mpg) CREATION TIME: many evenings and nights for working out less than one week for rendering (400x300) HARDWARE USED: Pentium 100 VIEWING RECOMMENDATIONS: This is a CYCLIC animation, so turn on looping/repeating ANIMATION DESCRIPTION: Unfortunately, I have nothing to say about the anim's "world". DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED: I've took a paper and a pencil, and I've done it. Creating it without macros would be much more difficult than with. Look over source file and look at usage of 'SubPhase01' macro. First time I've made 400x400 mpg and I've sent it to IRTC, but it was not accepted. So I've rescaled my existing AVI into 320x240 (I've deleted TGA files and I had no time to render it again in 320x240). Finally the quality of the b_juicef.mpg is not excellent (texts are unreadable).
