< How goes the "guns and knives" animation business, oh king of blood and gore? > It's a dirty, nasty, thankless job but somebody's got to do it. To tell the truth, I like this stuff. And when you get down to it, I can't really understand why anyone would want to go to the trouble and bother of creating an animation without a dead body in it. I'll be showing a bunch of this stuff in my Autodesk University forensic animation class next week or so: CrimeArt. See ya, Alec Jason

Alec: >> I can't really understand why anyone would want to go to the trouble >> and bother of creating an animation without a dead body in it. It does seem like a terrible waste, doesn't it! >> I'll be showing a bunch of this stuff in my Autodesk University >> forensic animation class next week or so: CrimeArt. I'll see if I can sneak away from the three classes I'm teaching to attend – I always like listening to a master of his bloody craft! Greg Pyros

Greg, I've forgotten: what classes are you teaching? Other than the "How You Too Can Be a Big Time L.A. Animation and Video and Hardware Guru/Bon Vivant" class. (I think I gotta sit in on a bit of that one.) Alec Jason

Alec: >> I've forgotten: what classes are you teaching? >> Other than the "How You Too Can Be a Big Time L.A. Animation and >> Video and Hardware Guru/Bon Vivant" class. Aside from those <g>, I'm teaching: "Advanced Video Tools" Tuesday at 2:00-3:30 "Video Tape Output" Tuesday 4:00-5:30, and "Network Rendering" Wednesday from 4:00-5:50 When is your "incredibly realistic blood and gore" class? Or should I wait for the book / movie / Cliff Notes version? Greg Pyros

Hi Alec, Where is Autodesk University? I am a 3ds4 user with Par etc and have toyed with Forensic animation. How much is your 2-3.30 class on Wednesday? Which Wednesday? Thanks Martin

Hi Martin. In case Alec is too busy to reply, I'll jump in and help you out. The classes aren't offered separately, they offered as conference sessions. I believe the conferences run several hundred dollars for two days of classes. There are however, many multimedia classes this year and if you can find the extra cash, worth it. Autodesk University starts next Monday and is in San Francisco at Moscone Convention Center. If you'd like more specifics, you can download the files in the NAAUG/Autodesk University library. Take care. Kelly Dove

Kelly, I'm giving a class on Forensic Animation: "3D Studio in the Courtroom". Hope to meet you. Bring popcorn and a thermos of martini's. Alec Jason
