This was too much fun to make...  I was trying to go for a Food Network-esque summer style promo.

There are actually supposed to be these cool little molecules flying around too, but Motion doesn't render them when I export the video for some reason.  Dang computer!

Say what you will about the WTF, it has the best title sequences ever.

Fabulous!  If you ever find yourself in Seattle, nraven, drop me a line, and I'll treat you to dinner at my restaurant.

Trailer for the next episode of Three Crazy Women Start a Restaurant: The ladies' real estate agent quits on them and they're left scouring the town on their own for locations; MG hires a website designer; the first menu tasting session.

The very essence of a modern cable network- style first, and we'll worry about substance later.  Grin

No need to treat, but in a "stranger than fiction" twist, would you believe I'm actually moving to Bothell in a month?

And if I might offer a suggestion on the Three Crazy Women website designer plotline... maybe it could be a string of them, like Murphy Brown's secretaries. :-)  I've made a tidy supplemental income being called in to rescue web sites from nutty designers- there are a lot of "artistes".  Feel free to make your own assumptions about any personality quirks I might possess.

Thank you.  Having the right software can make you look far more talented than you actually are! :-)  I give it the words and it does all the hard work of animating them for me.  Cheesy

Drat! I can't play it.

(I disabled gnash* because it chewed through my processor cycles, but thought I had a workaround with totem movie player... and it doesn't seem to be working. Which probably means I was a little too thorough with my gnash uninstall. Foo. Well, if I have time I'd go hunting around and see what needs to be fixed.)
