Futurama?

Any futurama fans out there? Am I the only one who thinks that a futurama plug in would rock?

I'm a huge Futurama fan. I'd love to see a Futurama plugin, but I don't think that it would work too well... too much action happens on the planets. More power to whoever makes one, though. 🙂

This would be a cool test of Strata 3D Pro's toon rendering when I get it 😛 Shh though, I cant afford the time 😛 I might make the ship though and toon render it once I get pro 🙂

Fun Fact: The animators who make futurama use lightwave with a cell-shader for stuff like space ships, space stations, and vehicles.

Cool! Only one little question though... forgive my ignorance, but whats a cell shader?

Not 100% sure, but I think it's the more general term for a toon render. I think Strata coined the phrase 'toon render' for their cellshaded renders. If you're familar with the new Zelda game for gamecube, it's cellshaded. Hope that helps.

My guess is that the name comes from when animation was done by hand. Each frame of animation was hand-painted. This was called a Cell. So, possibly it is the application of a texture to each frame in an animation.
