Dear Colleagues,

I am writing to you as I am studying aquatic creature movement and
model building. Recently I heard of a Discovery Channel program in
which they built computer models of the giant squid's moving body and
tentacles. I am learning computer generated modelling and motion
capture. I am looking for any resources that might lead me to someone
who is building such models and animation extracted from 3D files
captured from real animal physiology and movement. Have you done this
work with your system or do you know of anyone who has? Thank you for
your consideration.

Sincerely,

Tony Bellotti
