Tar walking out of the desert (finally). I’m happy that I’m finally getting some work done. I had to replace my laptop, which meant that I had to switch to Windows7–that has been a pain, because of having to update a lot of software to be compatible. I had to upgrade Animation:Master to version 16 64bit–which made me a little nervous to switch versions in the middle of a project. But everything seems to be working ok.

One of the things that I was trying here was compositing everything directly within the render. but I’m going to switch back to rendering everything as separate passes, just for the ease of fixing things or making changes without having to rerender the whole shot.
