[comp.sys.amiga] Toaster on Nightwatch...

	In case you haven't heard, there was an extensive 30-60 minute segment 
	of CBS's late night news program "Nightwatch", which apparently showed
	a LOT of the Toaster's killer effects and probably some Lightwave stuff
	too. If anyone out there has by any chance recorded this show, we'd 
	really like to have a copy. The show was shown sometime during the wee
	hours of Dec. 14.

     The Toaster segment on Nightwatch was in the 10-15 minute range. They 
spent most of their time on fades/wipes/dissolves etc. They seemed to have
only one monitor and didn't show ANY Lightwave or ToasterPaint. At the begining
they had some LW anims and they showed a "colorized" pic that was chroma-keyed
to a background.

     The NEAT thing was that they were displaying Toaster output on National 
TV!! I don't know how much they had to massage it but the words "TOASTER 
OUTPUT" was in the lower lefthand corner.


     Now if they could only get on Letterman and Carson!!
