just playing with animation. testing different ways for easier methods.
I have to say using the dome light with a hdr is amazing. It sure makes animation simple.
If you download the animation and play it through windows media player or something other than quicktime it looks better. Quicktime makes it washed out. http://home.comcast.net/~valgard/144.mpg
did you view it with quicktime? or something else? I have been using this animation to test all of my compression codecs to see what is best. file size, quality and changes in visuals. things done through quicktime are problematic for color changes and brightness changes with a couple of codecs.
I made a mistake in changing the standard format size. as I’m not sure how to compress to wmv and keep the same aspect ratio.
