EMAIL: pterandon@yahoo.com NAME: Greg M. Johnson TOPIC: Animations COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. TITLE: "That is *Unlikely* to be your Last Battelfield" COUNTRY: USA WEBPAGE: http://www.geocities.com/pterandon/anims.html RENDERER USED: POV-Ray 3.5 TOOLS USED: MODELLING: "POV-Ray, the raytracer, not a modeller"; IMAGES: Corel products. MPGEG ENCODING: MainActor and TMPGENc CREATION TIME: ~13 hrs. HARDWARE USED: Aptiva 2.8 GHz VIEWING RECOMMENDATIONS: Actually, double size and half speed. ANIMATION DESCRIPTION: A reminiscence of the old scifi series episode: http://www.ericweisstein.com/fun/startrek/LetThatBeYourLastBattlefield.html Meant to be the first minute of a very exciting TV show, complete with credits. I was inspired by the Babylon 5 opening credits from season 3 IIRC. Also a comment on current events. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED: Without storyboards, to the depreciation of the final product, according to my wife. Probably spent too much time on the credits part. I know (as usual) it's not the most polished product but I wanted to share my past few months' development of my craft, and I actually had an idea about the sanity of looking for duels as the solution to problems.
