Clay: me too LOL

moleed: let me know i put you down

mmurphy: yes Chris!

renato!: someone channels alfalfa?

ccasady: (just checking)

tommy: I think Byrce and AE is very powerful. Will that be discussed?

Clay: heheh

AuntiAlias: yeah, wasnt there a kids' show back some time that had alfalfa channels on it?

robokoneko: yeah, the colors are great. Really helps keep track of y'all.

renato!: talk about narrowcasting

AuntiAlias: spanky channel

Edo! materializes from thin air.

Mr Whoop Ass: Hrm, what are the capabilities of Bryce and Web Prgming?

tommy: yea After Effects

AuntiAlias: tommy, good idea...

Clay: see calyxa's site and Martin Murphys

stucker: Its the best way to create bryce anims from raw pictures in AE

AuntiAlias: I think that first we should talk about solely what Bryce does for animation

boru: Planetary traveler used AE heavily, I heard.

ccasady: we could do a 'command performance" on that.

AuntiAlias: that will naturally lead into discussion of video editing apps

stucker: tis true

AuntiAlias: boru, true re: that..

ccasady: AE happens to be loaded on all the machines we will be on

rvanderlippe: For anyone interested in talking about collaborating on a "BryceCamp" movie I've started a new room.

Ringo: Aunti, It was one of your so many great images that just made buy Bryce 3D.

rgross slinks out.

Calyxa: http://www.best.com/~calyxa/pearl/html/bridgepaths2.htm shows a little of what can be done with the html export.

AuntiAlias: aaah. ribofunk left

Mr Whoop Ass: How does everyone come up with your IDEA's ?

stucker: lol

AuntiAlias: next week we'll be talking about animation in Bryce

tommy: you can save a butt load of rendering time using AE to composite layers.

mmurphy: cool, off to see...

moleed: see ya kiz

Cricket: Sorry...gotta get back to playing with the Zygot Fairy!!
