Very cool! Thanks

I wonder if this can be done with MSP6? Maybe VideoPaint?

I used this in a video I did. It works great. You can check it out at the end of this clip. http://www.rothrockworldorder.com/Pi...owerbeauty.asf

Shame that the AVI showcase went tits up with GA's ineptitude - There were a couple of great examples of this kind of action. Now, if I can find an old copy of the frontsheet table, I've got most of the movies themselves on my backup right here. But I'm not gonna have copies of the readme's or details of the authors, which is damned annoying. There were some real classics, "My little pony", by JeffB (?), ohh, so much stuff <sob>

Who the hell did the rotoscoping. Wasn't Phire, but must have been around the time that he joined the discussions. Student dood, lives out on the West Coast, Chinese origin (I think). Did some great shots of wiggling his fingers and throwing fireballs.

I'll have to go searching around my AVI drive, see if I can pick up any clues.

Mind you, this link is a great tutorial !

You should watch US cable sometime. She's made a load of movies for cable/tape. Tough gal....
