Short: Satellite Anim - DPaint animation Author: chris@prophecynews.co.uk (Cliff Leckey) Uploader: chris prophecynews co uk (Chris Perver) Type: pix/anim Requires: AGA Architecture: generic My dear friend Cliff Leckey produced this animation on Deluxe Paint IV using WinUAE on a Windows Vista PC. When I first met Cliff and his wife Jean in the early 2000s, we discovered we both had a love for Amiga computers, depiste the popularity of Windows PCs at the time. We soon became great friends. Cliff had sold his motorbike and bought an Amiga 1200, which he regularly used to create animations in Deluxe Paint, recording them to VHS tape using a GenLock. Often he would use ClariSSA to produce titles for his various holiday videos. I was regularly called on when he had a problem with his Amiga. I called on him too when I had a problem with my motorbike! Eventually he got a PC, and the Amiga was moved up to the loft. But he still loved to work on the emulator, which of course enabled him to produce animations at a far faster rate than he ever did with his 1200. This animation was created by Cliff a number of years ago, and is a visualisation of the approach of a satellite going into orbit around the Red Planet. As you can see, he has worked very hard to achieve a three dimensional effect, which is completely hand drawn.
