You can do a google.com or dogpile.com search as easily as we can and get more results (hint, hint).
Good luck.

You might also consider using Quartz Composer to create it (the same app that people use to create screensavers, etc.)
It comes with the xCode developer software which can be downloaded for free from the Apple Developer Connection website.
It’s a cool app that’s a lot of fun to play with.

Also make sure that the audio playback button is enabled in the Time Controls palette.

What do you mean by flicker? The opacity toggles back and forth before making the new clip opaque?

Try working with the median and threshold filters to pull mattes of the subject before going to the effort of roto work.

x800 is an AGP card, not PCI-Express and won’t be compatible with the new machines. You should get the 256 VRAM 6600 model at the very least (and I do mean least), but I would recommend the 7800 if you are planning on using Motion extensively.

Something that I’ve found over the years is that to learn a lesson well you should do it 4 or 5 times, one after the other.
The first time is to make sure you can follow the instructions and get the right result. Then start again while it’s still fresh in your memory.
Each time after that you will do it more easily and quickly and by the 5th time you should be able to do it without looking at the tutorial instructions.

Duplicate the background layer.
Turn off the original BG layer. Don’t delete it until you have a version that works correctly.
Select the color you want to delete with the magic wand.
Delete the selected color.

Mike,
What you say makes sense. DV Expo has been where a lot of new technologies are introduced for the desktop video set. Too bad I won’t be there.
Someone on one of the lists said that Steve Kilisky from Adobe previewed the new AE at the recent Macromedia Max 2005 and that the new version looked really good.
If it was shown, then I expect it’s gotta be close to release. Can’t wait to see what Adobe has up its sleeve.
Will Santa delight or disappoint?????
Doncha just love the anticipation?
