New video

I've uploaded a new video, some things need to be changed but the lens flare is giving a nice effect to the bulb -which is what I was just working on...soon I will upload a final version.
I thought the lens flare works nicely as a glow, and I've found in the past that the glows give me trouble. One nice side effect is that the lens flare brightens the image so that (in the final) it will show the walls that I spent some time on, which otherwise would be hidden in shadow.

new still (render region)

here's a still from the Establishing shot, for the battery animation, The bulb appears to be shaping up nicely. Also the velvet looks pretty good.


* I should mention that the errors on the surface of the bulb is where I didn't completely map the reflection.
