Right on, dude. That's awesome, thanks.

Yea, I was a big fan of Monty Python back in the day.

Does anyone know how I may promote this video? I'd like to before year's end.

Thanks,
Craig

Ha ha. Thanks, dude.

Hey, I want to thank all of you moderators and contributors who helped me make my first animation.
2 months ago I decided to make a music animation / video. Today it's finished.

THANKS; you all make AS rock.

Happy Holidays and best regards to all,
Craig

Got it; thanks

I'm unable to get keyframes for changes to the layering order. Any ideas? I've changed the ordering of the group layer and the bone layer but there's no new keyframe. In other words AS only allows one layer order for this animation. Let me know what you think. I'm on a Mac AS 5.6 Thanks in advance. ...

As I finish my current scene I realize I'd like to make the last frame also become the first frame of my next scene. Is there a quick way to do this? I've been saving the last frame "as" (Save As) and then manually removing all the previous scene's unnecessary keyframes so that I may start...

I just figured it out. I put head into its own group folder and now it works fine.

Thanks, Vern. I'll try the switch layer next time.

I'm doing really basic animation, like South Park. In the middle of my 8 second scene I want my (image based) character's head to switch from a profile view to a front view. I tried changing visibility for the different head layers but only one "sticks" (is visible) in the final animation....

Awesome, gentlemen. Thanks as always.
I'm going to try AS on my WinVistMacTel (like my new word?) MacBook Pro.
I'll plug one of my desktop monitors into it for more screen space.
If I need to buy a new copy of AS I'll do it (perhaps ebay).

Thanks HV.
Does AS run well on Vista?
I have Vista on my MacBook Pro ( ironic isn't it? ).
Since I may see a performance boost I'm thinking of doing future AS projects on the Vista MacBook, then transferring the files to my G5 tower for video editing.
Any opinions?
All the Best,
Craig

Thanks guys.
ST, yea, I thought it might be a mac thing. I'm going to try your workarounds. Thanks a lot.

MKelley,
Sorry, I could have given you more info.

thanks, mkelley.
I'll give your suggestions a try.

though I'm not sure about:

You can "make it better" with a faster computer

My machine's pretty solid; I use it to edit video professionally.

Hi, my first animation with AS is proceeding nicely - thanks to all the help I'm receiving in this forum. Issue: My soundtrack in AS sounds bad; it duplicates some words or syllables randomly. Is there a way to make it better? I'm not using the audio in AS for final output; I'll attach high quality ...

Right on, dude. Duly noted.

I've been doing television production for over 15 years. There's a common belief that equipment/technology/facilities are essential to success. While this statement has truth in it, it hides the much greater truth: WE alone are the greatest conduits to success. It's not the sneakers that make a grea...
