Michele, I am glad that you have made new tapes for character animation. I was going through the examples in your book : Morphing and Animation. What are the major differences or additions that your tape, disk, booklet will cover? Will your disks ( along with the tape ) have the finished models of the examples used? In your Glass & Reflection book, example 12, the background for the ORB always shows a little of the original blue around the edges on my screen, even I enlarged the backdrop box for the Jupiter SI material and did a region fit. I wonder how to get rid of the that? On page 106, you suggested animated background with also animated ORB and water. Does this require a animated mattes( at least for the water if the ORB does not move in space )? Any further help on this is a[ppreciated. Thanks again for the nice books you published. Mei-Tien
