We are shopping around to get into animation. Our big question is this: What is the best way (for under $20,000) to get animations out of the computer? Personal Animation Recorder? PAR Has anyone heard anything about the Perception Video Recorder PVR? How about the new Video Flyer box that fits in with the Video Toaster family? We want good quality and ease of interfacing with other platforms and software, but with limitations on cost. Any ideas?

Brent, I've got a lot of answers regarding all this but it might be better if you E_Mail me your Street mailing address and I'll put together a 7lb package of articles ,reprints,Newsletters, CD-ROM, Demo Software Etc for your use. It sounds like your serious about this so I don't mind sending this study package out. However anyone else reading this please bear in mind these packages are expensive to put together and I would greatly appreciate it if only serious buyers would request these Please! Having said that Brent, I'd be glad to help you in your quest for the perfect animation production system. You will however have to invest in reading listening to and judging the information I have offered to send you. It will take you at least a week…well, maybe 3 days..<BG>.. to get through all this but after you do you will be informed practically up to the minuet. And yes I do have all the information about the Digital PAR/PVR equipment. We also really need to talk on the phone and I need to find out where your located. E-Mail me your Address & Phone info.

Brent: Sounds like Murph' may be sending you the motherlode but you could peruse the PERFAQ file in the meantime. It is in the library here and describes the new PVR from DPS. 3DS and the PAR work very nicely together and many folks, including me, have this setup. Support here is terrific for this combo and I suspect that soon it will be true about 3DS and the PVR. So far I have not seen a message regarding the new Video Flyer, anybody using this piece of hardware? Bob
