It’s Daniel Smith here.  I just wanted to mention that if anyone ever needs help with video editing/computer animation using Adobe software, Sony Vegas, Final Cut, Windows Movie Maker, Pinnacle Studio, I am knowledgable in all of those.  Not just video editing software either, when it comes to frame by frame rendering maybe using Photoshop with a filmstrip file, I am good with that too.  I have been making movies equiped with computer animation for about 8 years now and am currently working on my biggest project yet.  I have made a few short comedys but I mainly specialize in Science Fiction Films which are Star Wars related.  So as you can see I mainly do things that require a large amount of computer animation.  Here are a few images from my upcoming film so you may see the quality of what I can do.  Again, if you ever have ANY questions about film and computer animation as well as photo editing and manipulation, contact me.

Need a certain codec to play a video? Here are 3 useful programs you can get to play any video format you want. First and most widely known video codec is called DIVX. http://www.dvix.com . The second one is an actual video player called VLC Media Player. Just go to google.com and type in VLC Media Player and click on the first link that comes up. And third, this is by far the best if you want to keep windows media player as your default.  Matroska Pack is what it’s called. You can get that here… http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Matroska_Pack.htm Download the codec and install it. You can now watch Blue Ray files on your computer. And you will want to download the Matroska Pack Full. You can also get the codec from http://www.matroska.org .
