I am an artist, I make textured paintings as well as computer generated 2D and 3D animations (if you are interested see: nanogirl.com). I'm also interested/involved in nanotechnology and other emerging sciences that could help solve some of our worlds problems (disease, hunger, pollution).
Gina, how cool! This robot is very cute! You have a great imagination...and also technical ability. I am sure is not easy to get the robot motion right.
Gina I'm just loving your animation site. My 10 year old thinks it's so cool too. He loves the brutus film, but Gwenny loves the valeantines day one. No doubt we 'll see your animation on the big screen soon.

Gina I have called here following a recommendation from weirdbunny I have looked at a few of your animations..........fantastic . You are very talented.
Basically a gentle radial gradient is what I was talking about. I guessed that the animation was seperate from the particle stuff. I was talking about a gentle masking out of the particles so that the edges are less bright than the center. It would frame the robot a bit more that way.... keep the attention on the animation instead of the eye's tendency to follow faster motion (following particles to the edge of the screen).
Just a mild suggestion, that is all.
I do that with photography. I use photoshop to burn out the edges. Almost like a vinette (I always spell that wrong).
BTW, I am hoping we see some kind of update to Combustion come out of SIGGRAPH. Autodesk has really neglected rapid development of combustion. Mostly because it competes with their higher end systems.
BTW, just an FYI.
There is a new online training unit called FXPHD.com and Gary Davis is teaching the 3DS Max classes over there. It is all video training delivered over the net via bit torrent.
Gary is also teaching the TOXIC class as well.
I signed up for it, but I've been so busy I have not watched but a fraction of the vids.
Just thought you might want to know about it given that Gary is the guy that wrote a few combustion books and is a very savvy and experienced Max user. He is the guy that goes to SIGGRAPH and NAB for Autodesk to show off TOXIC, Combustion and Max.

The guy knows his stuff.
