And I totally went off on you for no real reason, Laserman, sorry about that dude. Yes, to totally do the job is quite alot of footage, which I'm not even gonna TRY and tackle...again, partially because it's too much work for too little gain, partially because some of it I like, so for me, it is just a few seconds here and there, so no biggie. Anyways, good luck with your job, It'll be interesting to see what everyone who tries this comes up with
Oh, and the problem with Jabba 2004? Plain and simple. ILM had North York Steve Williams (that's basically Toronto to you Yanks) who was trained in traditional animation and art before ever touching a computer, head the Jabba animation. Better skills, better foundation, and an understanding of weight as it applies to animtion, better results. Rush CG from the "B" team...floaty, crappy movement, with no sense of mass...dreadful. An they did that ('97 SE), I THINK in either Maya or XSI...it was something totally off the shelf though, with a couple of custom plugs written at ILM. But just a lesson that software doesn't make the animation better
