Normals in the camera statement can create anything from lenses that look
like they are cracked (crackle), to "3D" camera filter-effects that seem to
extrude the image in front of the camera. I've spent much of the last few
months working with this technique, and the possibilities are endless.

I like putting groups of various colored objects in front of the camera
and playing with camera normals. It can provide endless facination for
someone bored out of their mind :)

And tremendous fodder for the always-looking-for-new-resources abstract

Does he actually lift _all_ four legs at the same time? It seems a bit odd
to me ... :) Cool idea with the camera perturbation --- scene viewed thru
the patient's eyes, right? What software do you use to assemble your
animations, BTW?

Yes. My original concept for the Greb (enemy race in four of the
Rusty animations) was of a creature that walked in this manner.

Yes. The exact circumstances will be in my IRTC entry.

CMPEG.

I could, but I chose not to.
This is not the first time this message has appeared in one of my
animations. A gold star for whoever guesses which one.

OOOH OOOH - Would that be a reference to the Idol Worshippers from the 77th
dimension ?
"BOXER SOLVES A PROBLEM"
As a wise man once said:
Of all the anims (aside from my own :-), I liked this one best.
Best wishes.

Nay.
And that's the 777th dimension.
