Bad Haircut-I hope you get your music problem solved! Zensteve-yeah, the space and movement issues are monsters, but you should try moving marionettes on a set in stop-motion. The piece I'm working on originally started as a stop-motion, puppet film. The puppets were 1' to 2' and the sets sometimes strung out 15 feet. Try to keep track of 2-6 puppets-their body movements, covering of ground, and lip synch, and you better get the exposure right the first time. Needless to say, it was a nightmare which lead to a giant piece of crap! That is why I switiched to cel-whew! Mr. Blonde-we were talking about the construction of a cel animation, and I'm not gonna discourage anyone from trying it because one of you guys could be the next master. It's a long process but when you see a sequence completed and it works, it's a great feeling. Bird
