I remember someone asking about film, so here i come with info from the last issue of Computer Artist. It seems that someone is doing a 35" computer animation film using a Polaroid CI-5000, which I have use for two months in the lab, with an special front for motion film and an Amiga animation program. The Polaroid+the special front (I can't remember the model and the manufacturer) cost is $10,000. You get 4000 lines of resolution plus special hardware based antialiasing from the CI5000. According to the article, the quality of the animation is awesome and the price is very cheap. I can assure that the CI-5000 has a really good quality on stills, but I am not sure about the color accuracy between frames. Well, that's the info for those interested. I don't know if it's available for 3ds, but it's sure that you, the hackers gang, can program an ADI for it. Ana
