Kevin, I do study films, but mostly animation. I am always looking at the way cameras are used, or lighting. I tried for nine years to become a comic book artist, but that is based so much on who you know, not how much talent you have, that I gave it up 4 years ago and turned to the computer. I read about 20 – 50 books a year, so story telling is not my weakest point, although I am sure it could use some improvement. The main reason I want processing power is for fast rendering of complex objects. I have my own personal theory that even though an object is moving too fast for the eye to make out details, they are still recognized on a subconcious level as either being there or not being there. with version 3.0, AM should achieve a level that will allow me to create some things that I have been saving for the right time. I think this is it. Michael S. Flynn
