- A MorphPlus(TM) ANIM
-
-
- First, thank you for taking the time to download GIRL2DOG. We understand
- that this takes a long time to download, but we hope it will be worth it.
- This ANIM of 116 320 x 480 16-gray shade images can be played with any ANIM
- viewer or program that has ANIM playback capability.

- Making GIRL2DOG
-
- This ANIM was created with ASDG's MorphPlus. MorphPlus is a stand-alone
- program which is compatible with all Art Department Professional(R)
- modules.
-
- GIRL2DOG shows off a morph between a girl and dog. There are a number of
- attributes to this morph which only MorphPlus is capable of producing.
-
- The generation of the text and dropshadow and the placement of images onto
- the backdrop were done in FRED, the ADPro/MorphPlus FRame EDitor. The
- final images were compiled into an ANIM file using an Ordered dither.

- Other MorphPlus Info
-
- MorphPlus is a professional cinematic visual effects package. It is
- currently in use in television and cinematic productions, replacing high
- end systems running on various platforms.
-
- For example, it has been used for several key scenes from the pilot TV
- movie Babylon 5 as well as a recent episode (November 10, 1992) of Quantum
- Leap. At the time of this writing (January 18, 1993), MorphPlus has been
- used in several motion pictures, and is in use on several television shows.
-
- Since its release on October 1st 1992, the major Amiga software
- distributors in North America report that MorphPlus has outsold any
- competing product.
-
- The opinions of noted experts in the field:
-
- "The user interface on MorphPlus is one of the easiest I've seen.
- Setting up a morph is very fast and rendering it is equally as
- fast. I feel that this program is on par with other programs
- like those from PDI and ILM."
-

- Vice President/Post Production
- The Post Group
-
-
- The Post Group is the largest privately held post production facility in
- the world.
-
- "It's scarily realistic. MorphPlus produces the most realistic
- shape shifting special effects I have ever seen on a desktop.
- MorphPlus was the perfect solution to create the complex morphing
- sequences that Babylon 5 required."
-
- Mark Swain, Animator
- Foundation Imaging
-
- Foundation Imaging are the creators of the special effects for Babylon 5.
-
- Many of the advanced features found in MorphPlus (and available nowhere
- else) are present due to input from visual effects experts. Our product is
- designed for (and partly by) professionals in the industry. As a result,
- we believe our product will produce the best results with the least effort
- in any production environment.
-
- MorphPlus's morphing program manages four types of projects. These are:
-
- 1. Moving Morphs
-
- Two incoming streams of moving frames being merged to produce an
- output stream.
-
- 2. Still Morphs
-
- Two incoming still images being merged to produce an output stream.
-
- 3. Moving Warps
-
- One incoming stream of moving frames being deformed to produce an
- output stream.
-
- 4. Still Warps
-
- One incoming still image being deformed to produce an output
- stream.
-
- Keep in mind that MorphPlus offers more than morphing. Every effect
- performed by MorphPlus is performed at cinematic quality levels and is
- controlled by a intuitive WYSIWYG user interface.
-
- We encourage you to see our product at your local dealer. We also offer a
- direct discounted price for owners of Art Department Professional Version
- 2. The more you know about our product, the more confident we are that
- ours is the product you will choose.
