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

Thanks Chris. That was one of the problems we faced while making this. We wouldnt talk fast enough to fit it into 30 seconds.

BuddyB309, I agree, there is a lot of good stuff here!

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

You know, I love your animation, really it's superb and comical. How organized is your animation team might I ask? I hope ours gets organized in time for the main animation. It wasn't that well organized back when we did the safety animation this year, and honestly I had to rush the rest of it in the end (took about 6-7 days to put this all together, minus the side modeling). I would really love to know! :D

i still haven't been able to open this one with firefox..

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

Testament-Doom, Thanks! Our animation "team" consisted of myself and one other who is not the most organized person in the world. I have no idea how we are gonna do the main animation in our current state. I'm sure we will manage somehow.

Also, for anyone else here, I am curious as to what system you all are doing these animations on? Hardware, specs, jokes?

Mine is:
AMD Athlon64 X2 6000+
4GB DDR2
ATI Radeon 2900XT
1.3TB Combined
ViewSonic G90f CRT
Windows XP Pro x64

Yea, that is a problem for me too (although it works fine for everyone else I know using firefox... weird!)

Here's a direct link, you can just right-click save as and it should work!

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

Congratulations team 1726!
Great job this year on the animation!

So...
Congratulations once again!

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

I'll second the CONGRATS !

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

What were these animations judged on? What criteria was it?

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

No one knows. They don't release that unfortunately :(
but its my guess that its based on the story-line, considering that its a SAFETY animation competition, not an ANIMATION competition...also it said when they released it that they like nice clear audio. And they tend to pick ones with a narrator...they usually always have anyway...
