My first anim in a while... dead comp = no fractals.

A rotated mandelbox with _helispherical applied.
I attempted an HD encoding, but am not sure it did what I wanted. First time's always sketchy, right?
Here's the YouTube HD link:

As always, feedback is always appreciated. Oh, and I apologize for a very abrupt back-up and reentry right around the mid-point(~1:00). I didn't remember doing that until I saw it, again. I did try some experimentation with specularity and palette "envelopes," which seemed to work pretty well, going from a little too shiny to matte in a fairly satisfying way.
