Nothing too exciting but this does demonstrate creating a simple animation by using a movie as a texture map in the color channel. In this case I used some footage from the Flamingo in Las Vegas. I rendered as a sequence of TGA files and then finished up in ImageReady (it has a handy import folder as frames feature). This technique of rendering to a sequence of high-quality stills seems to be very flexible and gives you more options for finishing things up in another product like ImageReady, After Effects or Combustion. Anyone else have fun ideas of things to do with movies in C?
