Since we know Neri from Season 1 is by far the most memorable, how can NEW, never before seen episodes starring Season 1 Neri be produced if now she only exist in our memory. To me the answer is obvious being in a Digital Imaging class. The future of Neri is in cyberspace. Everyday I'm working with RayDream studio, Bryce, and Poser, which are software we use to create 3-D landscapes, people, objects and movies containing these things. Now it is we who create the "heavens and the earth" we who "make man" we who "part the sea". In Bryce"my will be done." Why today I raised a moutain and shaped it created a sky and animated the camera flying all around the mountain so you could see it from all angles while the clouds were animated to roll across the sky. My friend and I made a 3-D Bart and Homer in Raydream and animated them to be breakdancing in outterspace. In Bryce you can create an Island, with trees, and ocean and it will look like a real Island. There's Neri's Island, now all we need is to import a female form from poser and a head from Ray dream created with the Mesh Form modeler, animate her doing cartwheels on the beach, and there you have it, a never before seen episode of Oceangirl. Record a sample of her voice, rearrange her words to create new sentences and now she's talking. One kid made an animation of a computer generated Bruce Lee and used Bruce's actual voice for the soundtrack. It is not to hard all you need is a group to work with you. If you're waiting for Pixar to make it you can forget it. We have to make it ourselves. Not unless you like having meaningless conversations on mailing lists, Davey's love life, and more mailing lists.
