Tracking looks great, it's too bad that it isn't compatible directly with Poser.

5 stars for the Winter Ballet Jumping! ... and also for the part(s) after the end.

@Papasmrfe

maybe maybe someday i'll brush up my python programming skills and do that.

but there's some quaternion or matrix math involved so it will take some thinkin too :)

[Papasmrfe]

@mcasual From what I hear; Poser 9/PP2012 has upgraded to a new version of Python - maybe that would make the task a little easier. (As if you don't already have enough things on your 'to-do list'. Haha!)

@Papasmrfe

i only have poser 7

Am i under a wrong impression to think that poser 7 is a quirky version, a sort of Windows Vista :) ?

[pbmachinima]

Is that magazine animated or real?

[mcasual]

@pbmachinima

it's a real magazine that adds action to the shot :)

@mcasual From what I've heard, Poser 5 was their 'windows vista'. I started with Poser 6, which worked well, but only had one undo level. (Argh!) This was why I upgraded to Poserpro 7. I haven't had any major issues to with it and I've regularly used the dynamic hair and cloth rooms, preview and firefly renders, the render que, and have even rigged several characters in the setup room (although I hate their 'grouping tool'). I think Poser7 works great - and I'm still running xp with 2gb of ram.

@Sycra thanks !

i only noticed the pole on the fire hydrant, when the video was finished

that type of situation would require masks

i kinda like my sugar-cubes-world, which i've been told looks a bit like minecraft

The matchmoving was very convincing. Nice work!
