Hi there over the seas, animo runs under the Next-Step-OS. It's designed mainly for supporting classical 2d cel-animation, with automated in-betweening, coloring and layering. You'will ne some extra fancy hardware add-ons (automated scanner etc) to get it running. Animo also extist in reduced functionality packages, starting at $15000, but they're very specialised then (kind like a ferrari without steering wheel…). You might look at two other products, which ar very competetive in price & power: Axa Producer, focused on classical cel-animation. Good package. Priced at (full version $4K). aaaand…. my discovery from Russia: Mania Broadcast, basicly a clone of the Sgi-basing software type like Eddie, Matador Wavefront composer and so on. Priced at $1.5K. If you're interested in further information or demo-versions, send me a e. Bye from Stuttgart, Germany Jan / Imagelab
