Did you use this on the recent episode of Meatspace?

[Blunty3000]

@RonByg No. This would be impractical for MeatSpace as I animate directly to a pre-recorded dialog track.

[PCGamingFive0]

Blunty where did you get that little cute "L" thing?

[Blunty3000]

@PCGamingFive0 Some random little anime shop in an alley in a Melbourne suburb years ago. *shrug*

[LEGOGUY291]

Blunty can you get iStopMotion for the MacBook Pro and if so is there any way to hook it up to an iPhone 4 just like you did for the iPad?

[Blunty3000]

@LEGOGUY291 Yes (it is a different product and has been around for many years) and no, it does not (currently) have the ability to connect to the iPhone as the iPad app can.

@Jamiesuitor Thanks! I was wondering about it, and I thought it was about time to get it figured (no pun intended) out.

[BillyandBoby]
