Additional Information:
PRODUCTION Modeling: Subdivision surfaces. Rendering technique used most: Lightwave. Average CPU time for rendering per frame: 10 minutes. Total production time: 60 days. Production highlight: We really busted butt with this one. From the initial drawing of the storyboards to a fin- ished piece was 60 days. Not bad, since there were only six people working on it, and of those six only two were able to work on it full time.
