Thanks guys
South Park could be cel shaded i guess but is South Park even made using a 3d application? It just seems too cartoony...

Why yes, They even use Maya. In fact I have a Alias|Wavefront 98 Siggrapah t-shirt with Cartmen on it. This
was back when they used Power Animator. (Pre Maya)
I posted the Cell shader question because your recent post kind-of reminded me of that South Park look. That's a good thing.

again great work man. I realy liked the anim.

Here's a link to an article on Alias and South Park.

You know you spend to much time in Maya, when you try to Tumble in your browser. :-)

Cool, intresting article.
Anyway I have began the animation process and the first 850 frames have been batch renderd. Batch rendering was hell because I had to do it 3 times!!!!! When I batched my scene the first time I renderd it out as JPEG imadges but when I imported those into quicktime it was terrible quality user added image

The second time around I renderd my scene as TGA imadges but when I imported that into quicktime it was 250mb!!! Finally I chose PNG imadges and that gave me very good quality at a nifty 50mb user added image

Here is a shot:

Well Dragonhawk decided to change the storyline slightly, therefore we decided to turn the first scene into a trailer or a promation film if you will.
