If this Beyond2000 is the Australian Beyond 2000 that you guys are
watching over there by Beyond Inc. Then the company that did the nice
intro animation is called CONJA and they are in Sydney Australia I
think. It could be Melbourne but it's been a while since I have been
in Australia to see the show :( :(
As far as I know that animation was done using Alias. Most of the
major Australian houses used this a few years ago (When that
animation was done), but a lot are now switching to SoftImage
(ie..Animal Logic - The best in Aust)
Can you let me know if it is the Australian show please.
