Okay, today's blog post is really lame. Basically I'm testing if a self-made animation can be successfully installed onto this web page (rather than grabbing a movie off of YouTube)! I made a simple animation in Blender (a 3D modeling and animation program):
Hey, it's working!
If anyone has trouble running the animation, please let me know (and indicate what browser you're using). The movie is simply three seconds of a blue ball following an invisible path, against a purple background. Thanks.
Yes, this is all simple baby stuff. But you'd be surprised how much trouble I've had getting simple movies to run on different people's computers. So I don't take anything for granted! In one case, a person claimed not to have QuickTime on his computer, even though it's pretty much standard equipment (a bold assertion given all the different operating systems out there). But also I've wondered if there are issues with movies that are made with Blender.
Anyway, if you're all extraordinarily unfortunate, maybe I'll be posting more exciting animations here someday. :)
