Hi,
   my name is Jack Nowinski this is my first time using this user
group, I have a problem that I cannot figure out, I am working
with computer to video.

1) What kind of graphics screen resolution does the computer      
   graphics company PIXAR use. On tv I see lots of advertisements 
   that are made by computer I would like to know what graphics   
   screen resolution do they use. From time to time I see tv      
   programs that are about space, a couple weeks ago I saw        
   computer animation of Voyager 2 from NASA what kind of         
   resolution do you think it was. How do they make the           
   animations look so realistic.

2) What kind of computers are used to make these animations.
   How do people record  animation to video tape from a Macintosh 
   computer and what resolution do they use.

3) I would like to know what POV is or what it stands for, if it  
   is a software program, how could I get it.

4) Are there some software programs that can strech my graphics   
   screen horizontaly and vertically so when I tape my graphics   
   it will be full screen.

I would really appreciate some help on this.
