Ok, for CSCI236, for one part of our major project we had to do an animation. We used Lightwave which is pretty good. I'ts been used in alot of TV stuff and also movies such as Serenity.
Here is the animation I made. It's a bit dodgy, I'm sorry about that. We had all summer holidays to do it and a
still image, but I still left most of it til the last week. Thats bad because the more complex and highter quality you make the animation, the longer it takes to render (become an animation).
Anyways, yeah here it is and enjoy :)
