Re: 3D animation of the Japan quake sequence

Not a bad animation, but somehow I was expecting more. I could have done that.

Hmmm... maybe I just laid down the gauntlet to myself with that comment?

Actually, what I'd love to do is make an interactive program to view this stuff in 3D. I made a simple one years ago, but it wasn't very fast. If I could use OpenGL to access the speed of the graphics card it'd look awesome. But, I haven't spent enough time on OpenGl to get it completely figured out. I'm not THAT good of a programmer. :(

But even so, I have some ideas for a movie or two, and have some 3D animation software...

Anyone dare to 2nd the challenge?
