I've been doing some more video stuff. So like, have a look.

Flying Aliens (4mb)- this is a test to see how custom particles behave in Particular (a most sexy plugin for After Effects)
The Alien Spraymiester (2mb) - using Particular's Stick physics setting, and a lot of manually keyframed movement.

I went against your advice and allowed my company to buy me a shiny new powerbook.

I quite like it.

I also have Final cut Express which rocks.

I ordered a 250GB external hard drive. Those DV movies are big.
