This is an incredible look behind the scenes on the creation of Apple's animated short, "Pencil Test", which was entirely rendered on Mac II computers back in 1988. This incredible but of footage was from the QuickTime V1.0 CD. Enjoy! More»

Today there Blender which is free because that created it closed down and decided to put give Blender and GNU License so that it is still maintained and upgraded, free to download and use and state of the art. check it on the Net it is now a massive Open Source project. They make money from things like publishing the User Guide Book and donations and stuff.

No, not Apple II's -- they were using Mac II's - that series of machines. There might have been some Performa's in there - not sure what year they came out - but they said that they even brought in machines from home to make the 'rendering grid'. Amazing.
By adiblasi [Affiliate User] 1178469198 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveDamn, I knew someone was going to ask for that.. .and the Lisa in use video. I am trying to find that damn NeXT cable. I should have NEVER divorced it from the actual machine.
By adiblasi [Affiliate User] 1178466360 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removenice one alfred!
whens the NeXT video coming buddy??
It's amazing how they did all that! I wonder how they linked all the computers together for the final render? (FibreChannel hadn't been invented yet ;) )
By fixman88 [Affiliate User] 1178453796 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeis it just me i noticed what they where doing there where on performa like machines, not apple ][s though i must say jesus all credit to them for doing that on apple ][s and system 7

By thelocalscene010 [Affiliate User] 1178448679 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYep, just watchced the whole thing. Good To Know. When I used my Apple II GS I had no idea how to do that stuff.
By MacNerd1239 [Affiliate User] 1178447112 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveHey MN - the footage I had was a QuickTime video compressed at a size of 232 x 168 at 12 Frames per second. I imported it to iMovie, which decompressed, as best it could, converting it to DV - it was then recompressed for YouTube. Yes, it's grainy, but watchable!
By adiblasi [Affiliate User] 1178446959 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWhat's up with the quality?
By MacNerd1239 [Affiliate User] 1178446262 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveDon't forget the free open source 3D rendering program, Blender :-P
