VIEWING RECOMMENDATIONS: 


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED: 

Everything in here was created from scratch by my own hand from splines.  I must
disclose that
I was guided in the creation of a giraffe by a tutorial in the book that comes
with the 
software. I only followed the tutorial in the creation of the spline-based
model.  It was
great fun to learn and since I spent most of the past two months mastering the
software, 
I'm sorry I don't have much of a story to tell you. I was pleasantly surprised
to get this
far before the deadline.
