That was just the super compressed windows version; we have an .avi that's about 150MB, but I didn't want to wait half an hour to upload the video (we have somewhat slow internet... ;) ) Hope you liked it!

thats really impressive. Great job

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?
 

The mentors told me that our animation was sent in on time, even though it was a bit procrastinated for a few days, lol. I'm sure I trust their credibility :P. Anyways, here's our animation. http://www.vimeo.com/427590. Hope you like it!

Wow, i love this animation just b/c of how smooth it is. Nice job guys!:]

Nice and simple message. The voice of the teacher/safety person sounded like it'd be something out of south park. very nice work.

I was given this by the Royal Assault Animation team to post. Any feedback you have would be welcome. Hope everyone enjoys it!

interesting.........Nice concept. Its the most creative way of expressing safety in i've seen.

I must say though, I absolutely love the safety hero one...haha...very awesome concept, and well executed too!

Good job everyone! I see some tough competition to beat!

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?
 

LOL, wow! great job! Thats is the first safety animation to make me actually laugh! Your comedic timing is excellent! You did a very good job capturing the character of Dean. This is the best one I've seen so far.

If I had to find a fault, I'd say the character animation and lip synch on Dean needs a little more work. His head moves a little to slowly and smoothly. Normally you want to make the head movements slight and jerky, but not too jerky and not too slight. (as you can see its a difficult concept to understand). One thing that can really help is really listen to the voice recording. I see you were fortunate enough to have talent for a good voice actor. Try to emphasize on the ups and downs of the voice. It really brings the character out.

That walk cycle of the man carrying the latter is spot on! You've improved greatly since your last project. I can't wait to see what you will dish out this year at the AVA competition!

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?
 

Very funny. Dean will be so proud. Is that Woodie with the ladder?

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?
 

Haha, thanks for the review!
Yeah, the animation of Dean was complex, especially in the time we had to do it! I learned a lot along the way though, and if you can tell the animation got better towards the end. I truly think in the beginning I made the movements of the head too big. I need to make movements, but nothing that large.

Also, the lip syncing was difficult because the speech was fast, so it was hard to move the lips to something where the speech was somewhat slurred.

Haha, its not meant to be Woodie, but now that I think of it, he does look like him haha...

But regardless, thanks for the positive comments!

I'm glad you all enjoyed it!

Wow! I am impressed Magiciandude and talltree357 and TheOtherGuy. You guys did an amazing job. After watching those I threw ours up onto YouTube in case you all want to see something a little weird.

Nice Job Teams!

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?
 

Wow Geekzilla201! Awesome job! I especially loved the Aperture Science logo on the crate haha!

Awesome job though! You fit a lot of safety concepts into that short 30 seconds ;)

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?
 

wow, im seeing some really great animations here. I'm kicking myself for not having Ted Bordman in time for the safety animation. He's almost ready for the AVA though. So all of you better watch out ;)



Lip synch is my thing, contact me and i can tell you all about it. the main thing is that you want to hit your Ms, Ps, and Bs a frame or two before the actual sound.

One word-Amazing:D
