Let me first start that we have 4 dedicated engineers and about 6 or 7 students will to work on it most of the time. Yes the storyboard is a compromise, but nobody is going to be satisfied, that's why it is called a compromise. Anyways I do think that Becky's idea is awesome and extremely original, but as one person pointed out that it needed perfect audio and video syncing, which were are not capable at this point.

And for animation exposure, I think that animators are ones most exposed in a FIRST setting anyway, under the robotic competition. We had a lecture by Ted in Nationals, we get to see our animations on the big screen. And Autodesk, FIRST founders last year, are now supply a huge amount of software to us. When you see the other aspects in terms of awards (chairman's, website, &woodie flowers award) animation is on the top.


ehhhhh


okay

like audio video sync is easy. get premire or final cut pro. if thats not a monetary option you can get the mindshare edition. anyway, i think that the animation should be kinda hidden from the rest of the team. it keeps people who dont know jack away from you so you dont have to tell them that all of thier ideas are not technicly feasable or hear them talk about how they would do it better. i like it how it is in our team, the animation team is not only secretive, but powerful, w00t!
