The Nano-bytes is the name of the series. I'm still in very-very-very early development. I'll keep everyone posted as I go.

Just watched the update and WOW! I think your style will be branded on my brain for life. I hope as I develop my series your style doesn't bleed through too much, great job

Thank God it's not just me.

Very Cool! The sound is a little loud but that may be something on my end. I can wait to see what you do with this.

BTW I love the muppet style walk.

Nice can't wait to see them moving.

Anyway, I just draw my character's parts in Illustrator and bring em into AS. No smoke and mirrors - straight forward. Drawing in Illustrator isn't a panacea - just my preference. Not sure if that helps or not. Lemme know if there's anything I can help you with. I believe it is Illustrator that giv...

If I try to do .mov and choose h.264 it "renders" and then won't play what is supposedly rendered.

If I try .avi I choose the XviD MPEG-4 Codec because the DivX Codecs don't work at all, but I'm still trying to work through it to see if I'm doing something wrong.

First, do you use .mov or .avi? Second, I'm currently testing MeGUI and Gordian Knot with little luck :cry: , I keep getting a ffdshow error. I looked at Avidemux and cinelerra too.

$216K for just animation? That seems kinda high, maybe I'm wrong.

Not sure where to put this, but...

Out of curiosity, Let's assume I have a 24 min animated series and I want to hire 12 animators each would be responsible for about 2 min of animation each.

What is an appropriate pay schedule, i.e. how much $$$/min (or sec or frame) is appropriate?

Ok I re-rendered it it's down to 18.4MB
