How to Create Movie Special Effects ???

[laurent.bellegarde]

Hi All,

Happy new year.

There is only one software close to jahshaka that can allow you to 
create special effect, it's Blender. Using Blender to create special 
effect is more difficult that using jahshaka. To use Jahshaka, the only 
way is to have windows XP pro, under this release, jahshaka is working 
(not under 98, 2000, NT, Vista), and under Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 only.

The project is dead, but the source code, if it was well packaged could 
help the multimedia editing free chain to be complete.

There is a large lack in free software face to adobe after effect, but 
since 3 years, I'ven't found any packager to create a Jahshaka package 
of the 2.0 release for hardy/and last ubuntu. I'm not enough good in 
compiling and packaging to create it myself. This lack's still alive.

Cinelerra and Kdenlive are video editor. They have video effect, very 
powerfull, but there is no comparison to jahshaka, which is really more 
powerfull for this kind of tools.

Laurent,
