MPGFILE: muse_box.mpg RENDERER USED: POV-Ray TOOLS USED: POV-Ray,Paint Shop Pro, CMPEG10 CREATION TIME: approx. 20 hours to render HARDWARE USED: AMD K6 300 with STB Velocity 128 video ANIMATION DESCRIPTION: once around a musicbox VIEWING RECOMMENDATIONS: DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED: I did'nt come up with an idea until a few days ago and rushed through to get it done in time. This is my first entry into the IRTC. I felt like I needed to submit something so that I could feel like I have accomplished something and to introduce myself to those people that already do what I want to be able to do. I,m really not happy with this piece at all. I needed a few more days to get it tweaked in but I ran out of time. I hope you like it though, it is one of the first pieces that I have done where I knew ahead of time what I was setting out to make.It is also my first project in POV. I was using Ray Dream 3D and Bryce before I found POV. They were good starters but entirely too limiting. I want to thank the people that have made POV-Ray possible, and especially Free so that some poor shmo like me can have access to these tools. I downloaded my copy of POV-Ray in mid December so I hope everyone can appreciate how far I have gotten in such a short time.Any comments, especially encouraging ones, are greatly appreciated.
