I just found out about this programming language that looks really cool called Tao 3d.

In this overview, you can see many simple examples of things like 3d text, voice synthesizer, cool motion graphics.
The thing that caught my eye though is towards the end of the video, it gives a short peek of some things that can be done with video.
One of the examples shown involves using shaders to create an old tv effect on a video clip. There are a few other things done with overlays and such as well.
I wonder if this could be another handy tool in every editors toolbox?

Can't say I see the value in this package personally. It doesn't do anything drastically faster or easier than other packages I have at my disposal. Just learn Python and MEL Script instead I'd say. Much more versatile and looks better on your CV.

Re: Tao 3d programming language useful for AMV effects?
I would simply test it out and see how fast and hard it is to use it. someone who doesn't use programming would probably never get into it.
p.s. it does look interesting.
