Time for action – watching Triple I's 1982 demo reel

It's just a short time later. However, computer animation is starting to come of age. It's no longer a gimmick, and for the first time, professional art direction is being used. The (Triple I) 1982 demo reel is the beginning of computer animation being used in films and TV. Computer animation now had to compete with traditional photographic techniques and looks. Watch this demo and see whether they succeeded:

  1. Search on the Web for the term (Triple I) 1982 demo reel. YouTube, archive.org, or some other site should have the video.
  2. Watch it now and enjoy it.
  3. Check out the magician Adam Powers. How do you think they animated him?
  4. Does the KCET-TV animation compare well with modern motion graphics?
