Hi,

Has anybody seen the video Gate to the Mind Eye. I must say it is
extremely good. Can some one who knows about it tell me if Quantum
Mechanic was done in LightWave SGI or even Amiga. I wonder because its is
very lightwaveish (LIghtwave Does have a certain look, as good as it
maybe though..) Did they use LightWave...

At the end of the tape, there is complete listings
of who produced each animation. Your best bet,
and most reliable, would be to call the company
responsible for the animation.

I have heard the comment that LightWave has a certain look before and it was
discussed here previously. There is a small amount of truth to this, but in
general, I think it is bunk. As a case in point, when Voyager came out people
here couldn't even accurately say which parts were CG much less which were LW.
LW may have a certain look if you keep things set to the defaults, but that's
de-fault of the animator, not LW (yeah - its a horrible pun).

Well it's obvious that they used the Humanoid objects for the animation, but
as for LW who can tell withall the strobe lights?
