Heifner Communications is involved in the distribution of cable
television programming via satellite to facilities accross the USA. We are
prepairing to begin offering a new channel to launch in 1991, The Sci-Fi
Channel. This annimation was prepared for a Amiga driven computer display
along with about 40 meg of other annimations to be played in real-time on
monitors.
This program was created with a detailed model of the Enterprise from
Star-Trek, the Next Generation. The model was digitized with Digi-View Gold,
painted with Digi-Paint, then annimated with DeluxePaintIII. It's in
overscan mode and uses halfbright, so if it doesn't look right on your
system, consider the above.
Run the annimation with SuperView, (other programs seem to also work) a
program available on this and other boards.
SuperView -c [directory for file]:Sci-Fi_Channel
Use the "-c" option to suppress color cycling, it ruins the effect.
I am beginning to experiment with motorization control to track and
photograph models in the same manner that is used by the studios, only I use
Digi-View to directly import the images into the Amiga for additional
manipulation, such as Turbo-Silver rendering of planets. An example of this
effect is also available on Compuserve under the KEY- Enterprise.
I am a LONG time lover of all STAR TREK series, but really love the new
series. The Enterprise is a great subject as there are all sorts of details
available, as well a nice model kit to work from.
The next animation, that is almost finished, revolves the Enterprise
through 360 degrees, with full modeling.
Hope you like it... Greg Heifner
