You know why I am so upset over this matter?
My team has a contact with a professor in Cogswell College. This college is famous for its computer graphics department. This is where we get our file to tranferred to the video tape (we do them, of course. he watches us in the background.)
He is just a great person to work with. He is very well aquanted with one of the judges last year. And after we won the honorable mention, he asked the judge why we didn't win the first place.
They told us that our intro was too long, which was 9 seconds. They told us to show MORE robot. They wanted the ROBOT to score and pick up the ball and stuff.
Well...That's what we DID this year. The whole freaking 30 seconds.
You guys seem to be so fascinated by the character animation of that honorable mention.
I mean, I liked it. But I didn't get it. how does their robot work?
have you guys seen Mills High School's animation last year? I think they have BETTER character animation...They have like 3 people in it.
And how did they do? They got disqialified. Why? Because they used the stupid Epcot ball without permission from Disneyworld.
if you guys want to see this, ask me. i will put it up. It's 22 mb.
