More Video Clips

Here are a few more video clips that I have created and placed onto YouTube.

Enjoy.

This first clip is an example of some of the animation I’ve been working on. While the YouTube conversion reduces the resolution quite a bit, it still looks ‘interesting.’ I used several elements to make up this video. The scene was arranged using Bishop3D, a modeling program produces output that is fed into a 3D rendering package calledPOVRay. By changing each frame slightly, one can generate an animation sequence.

In this sequence, there are roughly 1500 animated objects, each with their own x,y, and z dimension movements and a rotating image-map of Bob Dobbs’s face. Every group of six spheres is joined via five tube structures, creating a joined object. These objects are then ‘chained’ together to produce the spiraling ‘tentacles’ seen in the video. Oh, and the camera is moving in 3D space as well. Enjoy.

More Animation!
These next two clips were generated by manually writing code for the POVRAY application. No modeler was used, making it a fun experiment. You never really know what you will see when you do animation like this.

These next couple of clips are of Coco and Jojo enjoying some outside time at a dog park in Southern Southern California.




Christmas 2006
Yes, it is very late, but this is how I spent Christmas day. On San Diego Bay.
