The Adventures of PCPlodd.

Abstract

This paper describes Paper Clip Plodd - a skeletal model with articulated limbs which is used for research on computer animation at Curtin University of Technology using the Computer Animation Negus's Raytracing System. A brief description of the modelling, rendering and animating software, the image manipulation and conversion utilities and the hardware used in the production of the animated pieces at Curtin is also given for perspective. It is shown that high quality animation work can be done at a relatively low cost
