[B Kieron, glad you enjoyed my response. I have a lot of fun on CI$ <g>. Virtuosity probably has more 3ds effects than any other film before. I think the vast majority were done in 3ds (about 120 effects shots), but there's also some shots being done by the SGI department of Sony Imageworks. I certainly had some influence on the shots I was involved in. We had a great Visual Effects Supervisor/Art Director [C (John Townley) who actually listened to the animators suggestions. And mine too. I was the animator and CG supervisor for quite a lot of the sequences. Games weren't a stepping stone into films. They both sort of happened at the ssame time, and in parellel. Martin
