Hello Antonio Carlos and Rubia!
This is very exciting. Thanks for informing us...and take a look at  
this web page. I just put a link to your work:

Movement Writing Animation
http://www.MovementWriting.org/animation

If you have more, please tell me and I can link to those too...

For some reason, not all browsers could view your link...I tried  
three browsers and only one of mine could view the files...I realize  
it means I do not have the correct plugins...what plugin is required  
to view your files?

And Rubia - I am impressed that you were able to get the 3-D feeling  
forward and back depth...writing the symbol smaller when it is  
further away is an excellent way to do that and years ago I actually  
considered putting those depth differences as actual symbols in the  
IMWA...smaller symbols would mean further away and bigger symbols  
would mean closer to your chest...but we did not do that because it  
would create so many more symbols in the IMWA...but that is great  
that you are doing that with animation!!

Val ;-)
