Re: Help starting a new subteam
I can't help you too much in any animation specific things, but I can provide several tips for running a subteam in general.
Fall/Preseason:
-Get your training materials/software ASAP. As with anything, the sooner you get your materials, the sooner you can get started.
-A solid training plan/schedule - The more organized your training regiment is, the more you can cover before the prompt is released.
-A group of dedicated members - Your core(2-3 members) group of subteam members has to be focused and dedicated to the task at hand. You can have a larger subteam than this, but I recommend having a focused group to take charge when things get tough.
Build Season:
-As with robot build, a focused plan generated in the first 2-3 days will go a long way when you start to follow it.
-Weekly progress reports + Weekly plans - The more often you step back and look at your progress, the better off you are. I recommend weekly subteam meetings with everyone to discuss what has been done, what is happening now, and what needs to be done.
-A task list is helpful. Assign and delegate certain tasks to certain members.
