Hi,
I'm looking for help in making a blender video. It's quite simple, intro/demo for the Darkening game but I need help at least in scripting the cameras. I should be able to setup the move paths and animations but putting it all together is where I need to most of the help.
So if any who knows this side of blender is interested in helping, that would be great if you could contact me.

Thanks!

In Christ,
Jari.

Well the help is still apreciated but surprisingly the camera changing wasnt that hard so that I was able to make this: http://voiceofhisword.com/upimages/recvid.avi
Thanks to Lord for that. There should be the basics of the technical side covered.
So now I can start making the intro video.

I know the question wasn't directed at me but there is some free cad software on http://osswin.sourceforge.net/. haven't used any of it, just remembered the site had a lot of open source software for windows and when I looked there was a category for cad software.

Like Christo said, it's not directed to me but here are some links to Blender and other good programs.

When I was a newbie, I found Blender really difficult to use at my skill level and I found Wings a really good program to learn the modeling basics then I got Milkshape was able to animate my models with ease.

But if you want to go with Blender still I posted some links to tutorials for Blender.

The Non-Blender Way:

You can learn modeling with this easy and free program:

Then for $20 you can export your models and animate really easy with this:

The Blender Way

Really good UV mapping tutorial I found helpful:
