Here's Episode 16, which finishes off Jonni, Astra and Rob's current adventure with Dr Zatan and his evil robot sidekick. And after just over 4 years of creating animations for MacFormat I've decide to take a short sabbatical. My plan is to take time out to develop a new series of digital animations and return later this year.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank MacFormat, for allowing me to contribute to their CD and for giving me complete freedom. I'd also like to thank those people who've taken the trouble to write or email me with, on the whole, favourable comments and encouragement - It has really made all those hours I spend crouched in front of a computer screen worthwhile.

You can also visit my website: www.elliott-design.com - I try and update it every week, to include any new work I've done (this is a lie! I'm afraid I haven't updated it for quite a while now. I'm planning another revamp and will let you know when I've done that)
I use a combination of different software packages to create my movies and these are : Extreme 3D, Midigraphy, Quickeditor, CelPaint, WebPainter, Color-it, Moover, Strata MediaPaint, Photoshop, Premiere, Poser, Bryce 3D, ClarisWorks, Sound Machine and Sound Effects.
I use a Performa 5260/120 with 40MB RAM and my daughter's Powerbook 3400/200 with 80MB RAM (when she lets me!).
