No kidding! Last night I hosted a computer graphics meeting for
the ITVA-- got a good look at "Adobe After Effects" for the Mac-
the keying options in that program are lightyears beyond anything
available for the Amiga.
The time-line splines are also something that Allen should have a
look at.
Now that we LW animators are being forced to Intel platforms, what's
the hot ticket for compositing software? ( After Effects for Windows
would get my vote, but doesn't exist yet.) Good compositing s/w
could shave hours & days off of ambitious creations.
