CAPN talks of
"THE CASTLE"...
Grafix, I like what I see so far. Given the time I'm sure you could put a tall structure within the castle walls. I need to get you and Willie in concert so we can all work together on this.
I'll put the two .gif files in /home/capn/phase/ so Willie can take a peak at them at his leisure. Will you be able to add motion to these gif files?? Alternatively I could try to blue screen some smoke and use it as fog. Willie's email is Jemezs@aol.com Please cc me on any communication you guys do so I can keep abreast.
WILLIE says...
Sounds like things are a roolin, haven't tried the labyrinth in a while. The last couple of times I tried my system said I didn't have the right codex to read the file. I still have exam nightmares, and hope you did good on it. You must have read my mind because I had already started on a space seen with the star. I have a scene of a Gate House into a Castle, that came with my Infini-D pro resource disk that I could use.
CAPN asks...
Is the Infini-D pro resource disk some kind of royalty free thing??
...then says
Jim (afuphilly@aol.com) started working on a castle as well... but both castle's could possibly be used in the movie, i'd like to check it out. I gave Jim (grafix in the roster) your email address so we can all work together on this. He emailed me some demo castles i'll put them in /home/capn/phase/ if you want to check out what he's got so far. But i'd also like to check out your castle if it is royalty free.

Dear Jim,
Got your proof of the album cover
for http://rombox.com/vol2/
... excellent!
One thing - side B might need a little more explaining... 2 songs from side A will be missing and the other 2 bonus songs will appear in the "random mix".
P.S. i've sent a copy of the demo to ya (some of the songs are gonna be remastered from digital to improve the sound quality)
{anyone else that would like a copy, please send your mailing address to help@membrane.com}
CAPN says...
Willie,
I know jim works on a pc,
we'll have to wait for him to specify his applications.
Jim has provided me with some flicks (.flc i guess) which
I had no problem importing to premiere, he may also produce
some dxf files, i'm not sure.
Can you import flicks??
Or are these strictly still images we are discussing here??
if not I could convert flicks to movies if need be.
WILLIE says...
Jim,
Nice job on the Castle, what platform are you working on ( Windows or Mac ) and what kind of apps are you working with and file types can you output. Any CAD drawings should be in .DXF formats that I can read into Mini-Cad or Infini-D, gifs, bmps, Picts, tiffs, jpegs would be used as surfaces (Infini-D ) or as backgrounds in Premiere.
WILLIE says...
Capn, Have never had a flick to try into premiere. Where might I find one and I'll give er a try!
Willie

...I put membrane.fli in /home/capn/membrane/
Sorry, it's a little phat at 1.9 M but it looks pretty groovy.
...Help,
Can you move Willie's gateprj.mov which to http://membrane.com/video/qt/. It's quite nice.
...Grafix,
If by the time you go to get it at Willie's ftp, it isn't there you could go grab it off the web?
...It looks as if the next video is really startin' to come together, I spent all day yesterday capturing and starting to edit.
